Image Setup for analog input
Auto Setup
Before carrying out this section, it is very important that the correct monitor drivers have been installed.(See pages 5 and 7)
i The Setup Utility included on the setup CD displays a test pattern of dots. It does not replace or modify the display drivers.
i The Auto Setup instructions require the monitor to be warmed up for 15 minutes. This is not required for normal operation.
i If your computer does not run with the setup CD shipped with the monitor, refer to Manual Setup on page 11.
i The AUTO SETUP process only applies to the current screen mode. When a new mode is selected, repeat this section to reset the monitor.
For digital input, image setup is not required.
When you first use your monitor, you must perform Auto Setup for analog input. If you are using digital input, continue with the instructions on page 12. 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 optimize 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 page 18.
You should perform AUTO SETUP for each screen mode you use.

Ergonomic Considerations
Workplace Preparation
i 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.
- Positon 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.
Working Practices
i 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
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 these settings 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.
Adjusting the Monitor Position
i With the IBM Flat Panel Monitor, you can adjust its position in various ways for maximum comfort.
Viewing Angle
You can tilt the screen forward and backward as shown below.

Display modes
i 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 reconfigured the computer, preferably to 1024 x 768 at 60Hz.
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 AUTO 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 x 768 addressability at 60Hz vertical refresh rate.
For the display modes listed below, the screen image has been optimized during manufacture.
