CHAPTER 1: Using Your Gateway Flat-Panel Monitor

Adjusting monitor settings

Use the monitor controls (located on the monitor itself) and computer controls (accessible through Windows) to adjust the display image. For more information about computer controls, see “Changing Windows screen settings” on page 11.

Using the EzTouch menu buttons

This monitor features an onscreen display (OSD) and EzTouch menu buttons that let you adjust contrast, brightness, and other settings for the monitor. The monitor saves changes you make to the settings, even if you turn off the monitor.

Your monitor has two levels of menus, and the functionality of the touch buttons depends on the menu that is currently open:

The shortcut menu lets you quickly change some of the most commonly accessed settings.

The main menu lets you precisely adjust all levels of settings.

Using the shortcut menu

To use the shortcut menu:

1Press the lit button on the front of your monitor. The rest of the button icons light up and the shortcut menu opens.

Press (Source) to cycle through the available video sources.

Press (Auto) to automatically adjust your display image to the ideal settings.

Press (Picture) to adjust the Brightness, Contrast, and Gamma settings.

Press (Cancel) to exit the shortcut menu.

Press (Main Menu) to open the main menu.

To turn off the button icons and close the menu, wait about ten seconds without pressing a button.

Important

The buttons are very sensitive, and may be “pressed” by holding your finger just above its surface. To completely “release” a touch button, make sure that you lift your finger well away from the button.

2To use an EzTouch menu button, lightly touch its icon. For adjusting a setting’s values, you can press and hold touch buttons as you would conventional buttons.
