Workplace Preparation

film from the front of the screen.
This section gives advice on what you should consider
before you set up your monitor.
Height
Position the monitor 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. Position the monitor 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, swivel left or right as well as lift up and down 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
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.
5
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 19 for more information.

Caring for your Monitor

Be sure to turn off the power before you perform any maintenance on the monitor. Clean your monitor as follows:
Gently wipe the device covers and the screen with a soft cloth.
Remove finger marks and grease with a damp cloth and mild detergent; do not use solvents or abrasives
Never use flammable cleaning material to clean your IBM monitor or any other electrical apparatus.
Connect the power cord to the power port on the back of your monitor if the power cord supplied is not attached to the monitor. Then insert the plug into a properly grounded electrical outlet.

Auto Image Setup (Analog Only)

Auto Image Setup

The Setup Utility included on the setup diskette is for displaying dot patterns. They do not replace or modify the display driver.
The Auto Image Setup instructions require the monitor to be warmed up for 15 minutes. This is not required for normal operation.
When you first use your monitor you must perform Auto Image Setup. This procedure sets up your monitor to process the video signals from your computer without image discoloration or smearing. After you perform Auto Image Setup, the settings are stored and used each time you turn on the monitor.
To optimise the displayed image a set-up utility is provided on the CD. Operation of the utility is dependent on the operating system on your computer. For correct operation locate the operating system on your computer from the table below and follow the appropriate instructions. You can choose to run
AUTO IMAGE 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 versions of

Display modes

The display mode the monitor uses is controlled by the computer. Therefore, refer to your computer documentation for details on how to change display modes.
The image size, position and shape might change when the display mode changes. This is normal and the image can be readjusted using
ETUP and the monitor controls.
S
Unlike CRT monitors, which require a high refresh rate to minimize flicker, TFT technology is inherently flicker-free. If possible, configure your computer for 1280 × 1024 addressability at 60Hz vertical refresh rate.
For the display modes listed on the next page, the screen image has been optimized during manufacture.

Power Management

ENGLISHFRANÇAISESPAÑOLITALIANOJAPANESECOMPL & WARR
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 1280 x 1024 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 Signaling (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.
