IBM T54H, 9511HG2, T54A, 9511-Axx User Manual

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 on page 14 for more information.

Auto Setup

Before carrying out this

section, it is very important that The Setup Diskette for Windows 95 or Windows 98/Windows 2000/ Windows NT has been run. (see page 6)

The Setup Utility included on the setup diskette is for displaying do patterns. They do not replace or modify the display dirver.

The Auto Setup instructions require the monitor to be warmed up for 15 minutes. This is not required for normal operation.

By pressing the

and

keys simultaneously allows direct access to the auto set-up controls.

When you first use your monitor you must perform Auto Setup. This procedure sets up your monitor to process the video signals from your computer without image discoloration or smearing. After you perform Auto Setup, the settings are stored and used each time you turn on the monitor.

In order to optimise the displayed image a set-up utility is provided on the IBM Monitor Installation Diskette. Operation of the utility is dependent on the operating system on your PC. For correct operation locate the operating system on your PC from the table below and follow the appropriate instructions. You may choose to run

UTO SETUP

for each operating system that you use. This means that if you sometimes use your monitor while running any version of Windows and sometimes also use it from within DOS (not a DOS window), you must run

UTO SETUP

for both Windows and DOS.

You may run versions of

UTO SETUP

in any order.

If your PC does not run

with the setup diskettes shipped with the monitor, refer to Manual Setup on page 12

Before you begin

UTO SETUP

for your PC:

1. Make a backup copy of the setup diskettes supplied with the monitor.

2. Make sure the PC’s video mode is set in the range of the supported screen resolution shown in the table on page 18.

The

UTO SETUP

process

only applies to the current screen mode. When a new mode is selected, repeat this section to reset the monitor

You should perform

UTO SETUP

for each screen mode you use.

and press ENTER.

6. Type

‘TESTPATD’

and press ENTER.

7. Select from the screen the number for the color or text mode you want to setup.

8. Select from the screen the number for the video mode you want to setup.

You may repeat this process for as many of the color and video modes as you need.

The size and diversity of the dot pattern varies with

the screen resolution.

9. When the dot pattern appears, press the OSD Enter button at the bottom of the monitor to display the initial OSD menu.

If the screen flickers,

repeat the setup several times until the flicker is minimised, or adjust it manually by following Manual Setup on page 13.

Further Information

Display modes

The display mode the monitor uses is controlled by the computer. Therefore, you should refer to your computer documentation for details on how to change display modes.

The image size, position and shape may change when the display mode changes. This is normal and the image can be readjusted using

UTO SETUP

and the monitor controls. Unlike CRT monitors, which require a high refresh rate to minimize flicker,

TFT technology is inherently flicker-free. If possible, configure your computer for 1024 × 768 addressability at 60Hz vertical refresh rate.

For the display modes listed below, the screen image has been optimized during manufacture.

Power Management

If your computer has

previously been used with a CRT monitor and is currently configured to a display mode outside the range that the Flat Panel monitor can display, you may need to re-attach the CRT monitor temporarily until you have re-configured the computer, preferably to 1024 x 768 at 60Hz.

To benefit from power management, the monitor must be used in conjunction with a computer that implements the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) Display Power Management Signalling (DPMS) Standard.

The power management feature is invoked when the computer recognizes that you have not used your mouse or keyboard for a user-definable period. There are several states as described in the table below.

As an

NERGY STAR

Partner, IBM has determined that this product meets the

NERGY STAR

guidelines for energy efficiency.

IBM recommends that you switch off your monitor at the end of each working day, or whenever you expect to leave it unused for long periods during the day.

‡ There may be a slight delay before the picture reappears.
