For digital input, image setup is not required.
When you first use your monitor you must perform Auto Setup. This
procedure set 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 CD. Operation of this utility is dependent on the operating
system on your computer. You may choose to run AUTO 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 AUTO SETUP for both
Windows and DOS. You may run versions of AUTO SETUP in any order.
Before you begin AUTO SETUP for your computer, make sure the
computer video mode is set in the range of the supported screen
resolution shown in the table on page17.
You should perform AUTO SETUP for each screen mode you use.
