2 Setting Up the Monitor

To set up the monitor, ensure that the power is turned off to the monitor, computer system, and other attached devices, then follow the instructions below.

Unfolding the Monitor

1. Lift the monitor from its box and place it face down on a flat surface.

2. Hold down the monitor stand with one hand (1) then grasp the top of the display with the other

hand and unfold the display head 90 degrees (2).

CAUTION: Do not touch the surface of the LCD panel. Pressure on the panel may cause non-

uniformity of color or disorientation of the liquid crystals. If this occurs the screen will not recover to its normal condition.

NOTE: When the monitor is unfolded for the first time, the display head is locked from adjusting to a

full-height position. To adjust the display head to full height, press down on the display head to unlock it then pull up on the display head to raise it to the full-height position. Refer to step 3 in

Monitor on page 10.

WARNING! The handle on the rear of the monitor is used to help raise the display to the full-height

position. To lower the display, do not grasp the handle. Doing so may cause you to pinch your fingers between the display and top of the stand. Press down on the top of the display head to lower the position of the monitor.

Connecting the Cables

1. Place the monitor in a convenient, well-ventilated location near the computer.

2. Remove the cable management clip from the back of the stand by pressing inward on one side

of the clip (1) and pulling outward on the other side of the clip (2)

3. Depending on your configuration, connect either the DisplayPort, DVI, or VGA video cable

between the PC and the monitor.

NOTE: The monitor is capable of supporting either analog or digital input. The video mode is

determined by the video cable used. The monitor will automatically determine which inputs have valid video signals. The inputs can be selected by pressing the Input button on the front panel or through the On-Screen Display (OSD) feature by pressing the Menu button.

For analog operation, connect the VGA signal cable to the VGA connector on the rear of

●

the monitor and the other end to the VGA connector on the computer (cable provided with select models).
