Setup

Hardware Requirements

This monitor requires a computer with a suitable on-board sub-system or

Video Adapter card that can support XGA 1024 × 768, SVGA 800 x 600, or

VGA 640 x 480 at 60 Hz.

Handling Instructions

Do not support the monitor within the screen area. The Liquid Crystal Display is glass and can be damaged by rough handling or excessive pressure.

1.Lift the monitor by placing your hands where indicated below.

2.Before using your monitor for the first time, remove the clear protective film from the front of the screen.

Workplace Preparation

This section gives advice on what you should

consider before you set up your monitor.

Height

The monitor should be positioned so that the top of the screen is slightly below your eye level when you sit at your workstation.

Orientation

Choose a position that gives the least reflection from lights and windows, usually at a right angle to any windows. The monitor should be positioned directly in front of you so that you do not have to twist your body to use it. Tilt the monitor to a comfortable viewing angle.

Adjusting the Monitor Position

Viewing Angle

You can tilt the screen backward and forward as shown below.

Working Practices

This section gives advice on how you can

work comfortably and reduce fatigue.

Rest

Take regular breaks. Vary your posture, stand up and stretch occasionally as prolonged use of computer workstations can be tiring.

Back

You should sit back in your chair and use the backrest.

Hands

Adjust the seat height so that your forearms are approximately horizontal and your wrists are straight when using the keyboard. Your upper arms should be relaxed with your elbows near your body.

Use a light touch on the keyboard, keeping your hands and fingers relaxed. Allow a space in front of the keyboard to rest your wrists when not typing. Consider using a wristpad.

Eyesight

Working with monitors, in common with any prolonged close work, can be visually demanding. Look away from the screen periodically and have your eyesight checked regularly.

Screen settings

Set the screen brightness and contrast to a comfortable level. You may have to adjust this as the lighting changes during the day. Many application programs let you select color combinations which can help you to view in comfort. See the User controls section for more information.
