Additional Safety Information

These products have been evaluated for connection to an “IT” power system (an AC distribution system with no direct connection to earth, according to IEC950).

AC Power Safety Warning

Warning: Locate the monitor near an AC outlet. The AC power cord is your HP monitor’s main AC disconnecting device and must be easily accessible at all times. For your safety, the power cord provided with your system has a grounded plug. Always use the power cord with a properly grounded wall outlet to avoid the risk of electrical shock.

Installation

Follow the instructions in this chapter to install your HP Pavilion MX50, MX70, or MX90 Multimedia Monitor.

Warning: The MX monitors are heavy objects. Exercise caution, or get help when lifting, to prevent back injury.

Note: Before installing the monitor, refer to your PC and video adapter documentation. You may need to make changes to accommodate the monitor.

Locating the Monitor

Place the monitor on a flat, sturdy surface. Choose an area that is free from excessive heat, moisture, and sunlight. Locate the monitor as far as possible from sources of electromagnetic interference, such as transformers, motors, fluorescent lighting, and other PC monitors.

English

HP Pavilion MX50, MX70, and MX90 Multimedia Monitors

Connecting the Power and Video

Cables

Before connecting any cables, be sure to read the safety instructions at the beginning of this manual. The PC and monitor must be turned off.

To connect the power and video cables:

1Connect the power cord to the back of the monitor.

2Plug the power cord into a power outlet.

3Connect the blue plug on the video cable to the video port of your PC. If you have an HP Pavilion PC, this port is marked in blue.

However, on some Pavilion PCs, the port could be marked in orange. (The illustration below is for reference only. Check your PC user’s guide for the video port location.)

	HP Pavilion MX50, MX70, and MX90 Multimedia Monitors

4Insert the pink microphone cable plug into the sound input connector on the back of your PC. If you have an HP Pavilion PC, the connector is marked in pink. However, on some

Pavilion PCs, the connection could be marked in yellow.

Connecting the Speakers

The monitor is designed for use with the Polk Audio speakers supplied by HP.

1Extend the cables attached to the two speakers.

2Identify the left and right speakers. You can tell which side of the monitor a speaker fits onto by observing its curvature and mounting pegs. Not all speakers have mounting pegs. If you don't have mounting pegs, skip to step 5. The side of the speaker with mounting pegs fits flush against the side of the monitor.

3Insert the pegs of the right speaker into the corresponding slots on the right side of the monitor. Push down, sliding the speaker pegs completely into the slots.

4Insert the pegs of the left speaker into the corresponding slots on the left side of the monitor. Push down, sliding the speaker pegs completely into the slots.

5Refer to your PC user’s guide for instructions on how to connect your speakers to the PC.

Using the Monitor

This chapter contains information about using the HP Pavilion MX50, MX70, or MX90 Multimedia Monitors.

Turning the Monitor On and Off

Use the Power button on the front panel to turn the monitor on and off. When the monitor is on, the light near the Power button is illuminated. The light is green when the monitor and PC are active and yellow/amber when the monitor is in one of its reduced power modes.

The monitor’s power management features reduce power consumption to low levels when your PC has been inactive for a specified period of time. See “Minimizing Energy Use” on page 8 for more information.

Because of the monitor’s power management features, you don’t normally need to turn off the monitor when it’s not in use. When turned off, the monitor uses the same amount of power that it uses in Sleep mode (less than 5 watts).

If your PC doesn’t support DPMS power management, you can reduce power consumption by turning off the monitor when it won’t be used for an extended period. You can turn the monitor off even if you leave the PC running.

Warning: To completely disconnect power from the monitor, you must remove the power cord from the AC power outlet or surge protector.

6	HP Pavilion MX50, MX70, and MX90 Multimedia Monitors

Degaussing the Display

Degaussing removes magnetism that causes unwanted color variations. Degauss the display any time you notice unusual color variations.

Note: Do not degauss more frequently than once every 30 minutes, or the degauss will be incomplete. It is not necessary to degauss unless you have moved the monitor.

There are two degaussing methods. Each time you turn on the monitor, it is automatically degaussed. You can also use the Degauss option in the on-screen display (OSD) main window to degauss the display.

See “Using the OSD Main Window” on page 12 for instructions.

Setting the Screen Resolution

The screen resolution determines the amount of information shown in the display. Screen resolution refers to the number of dots or pixels used to make up an image. A low screen resolution means that the display uses a relatively small number of relatively large dots. A higher resolution means that more dots of a smaller size make up the image. With higher screen resolutions, icons, windows, and text are smaller on the screen, but more information can be displayed.

Use the Window’s Control Panel to set the screen resolution. The monitor supports many common screen resolutions, as shown in the “Pre-Set Video Modes.”

English

HP Pavilion MX50, MX70, and MX90 Multimedia Monitors

7

Selecting Refresh Rate

To minimize eyestrain and maximize the performance of your display, use the highest possible image refresh rate or vertical frequency for which you don’t perceive flicker (generally at or above 75 Hz for most users). The image refresh rate is the number of times per second that the image is refreshed. The “Pre-Set Video Modes” table shows the image refresh rates supported by the monitors at different screen resolutions.

Minimizing Energy Use

HP Pavilion PCs support VESA Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS). Power Management features reduce the monitor’s power consumption after a period of keyboard inactivity.

The monitor supports three different power-saving modes — Standby, Suspend, and Sleep. See “DPMS Power Management Features” for a description of the characteristics of each mode.

When the monitor is in one of its power-saving modes, the screen is blanked out and the front panel power indicator is yellow/amber. Consult your PC user’s guide for information about setting the power-saving modes.

Cleaning the Screen

To clean the screen:

1Turn off and unplug the monitor.

2Spray a soft cotton cloth with regular household glass cleaner, and then gently wipe the screen.

8	HP Pavilion MX50, MX70, and MX90 Multimedia Monitors

Warning: Don’t use cleaning solutions containing fluoride, acids, or alkalis. Never use hard or abrasive cleaning products to clean the screen.

3Dry the screen with a soft cotton cloth.

4Plug in the monitor and turn it on.

Adjusting the Viewing Angle

The monitor’s pedestal mounting enables you to adjust the viewing angle. You can tilt and swivel the monitor to find the most comfortable viewing position.

Changing Display Settings

Use the on-screen display (OSD) features of the monitor to change settings. The buttons on the front panel control on-screen icons and windows.
