2.4 Connecting the Product to a PC as a USB HUB
2.4.1 Connecting a PC to the Product
The product can function as a HUB by connecting to a PC via a USB cable. You can connect a source
device directly to the product and control the device from the product, without having to connect the
device to the PC.
To use the product as a USB HUB, connect the product to a PC using a USB cable.
Connect the USB cable to [ ] on the back of the product and [ ] (USB) on the PC.
2.4.2 Utilizing the Product as a USB HUB
Using the product as a hub, connect and use various source devices with the product at the same time.
A PC cannot connect to multiple source devices at the same time as it has a limited number of input/
output ports available. The HUB feature on the product will improve your work efficiency by allowing you
to connect multiple source devices to the USB ports on the product at the same time without connecting
them to a PC.
If multiple source devices are connected to the PC, the many cables around the PC may look messy.
Connecting the devices directly to the product will resolve such inconvenience.
An external mass-storage HDD requires external power supply. Be sure to connect it to a power
source.

Terminology
OSD(On Screen Display)
On screen display (OSD) allows you to configure on-screen settings to optimize the picture quality as
required. It allows you to change the screen brightness, tint, size and many other settings using
menus displayed on the screen.
HUB
HUB refers to a device that is a common connection point for multiple devices connected over a
network. It is used to connect multiple PCs, video devices, office devices and/or LANs over a single
network.
Gamma
The Gamma menu adjusts the grey scale that represents middle tones on the screen. Adjusting the
brightness brightens the whole screen, but adjusting Gamma only brightens the medium brightness.
Grey scale
Scale refers to levels of color intensity that show variations of color change from darker areas to
brighter areas on the screen. Changes to the screen brightness are expressed with black and white
variation, and grey scale refers to the medium area between black and white. Changing the grey scale
through Gamma adjustment will change the medium brightness on the screen.
Scanning rate
Scanning rate, or refresh rate, refers to the frequency of screen refreshes. Screen data is transmitted
as it refreshes to display an image, although the refreshing is invisible to the naked eye. The number of
screen refreshes is called scanning rate and is measured in Hz. A scanning rate of 60Hz means that
the screen refreshes 60 times per second. The screen scanning rate depends on the performance of
the graphics cards in your PC and monitor.
Horizontal Frequency
Characters or images displayed on the monitor screen consist of numerous dots (pixels). Pixels are
transmitted in horizontal lines, which are then arranged vertically to create an image. The horizontal
frequency is measured in kHz and represents how many times horizontal lines per second are
transmitted and displayed on the monitor screen. A horizontal frequency of 85 means that the
horizontal lines that make up an image are transmitted 85 000 times per second, and the horizontal
frequency is indicated in 85kHz.

Page 90
Appendix
Vertical Frequency
One image is made of numerous horizontal lines. The vertical frequency is measured in Hz and
represents how many images can be created per second by those horizontal lines. A vertical
frequency of 60 means that an image is transmitted 60 times per second. The vertical frequency is
also called "refresh rate" and affects screen flicker.
Resolution
Resolution is the number of horizontal pixels and vertical pixels that form a screen. It represents the
level of display detail.
A higher resolution displays a greater amount of information on the screen and is suitable for
performing multiple tasks at the same time.
E.g. A resolution of 2560 x 1440 consists of 2,560 horizontal pixels (horizontal frequency) and 1,440
vertical lines (vertical resolution).
Plug & Play
The Plug & Play feature allows the automatic exchange of information between a monitor and PC to
produce an optimum display environment.
The monitor uses VESA DDC (international standard) to execute Plug & Play.
