Turning on the Monitor for the First Time

After connecting the cables, press the power button on the front of the monitor to turn it on.

NOTE: Net mode is the monitor's default mode. You can toggle between Net mode and PC mode by pressing the Mode button on the monitor's front panel.

CAUTION: Burn-in image damage may occur on monitors that display the same static image on screen for a prolonged period of time.* To avoid burn-in image damage on the monitor screen, you should always turn off the monitor when it is not in use for a prolonged period of time. Image retention is a condition that may occur on all LCD screens. Monitors with a “burned-in image” are not covered under the HP warranty.

* A prolonged period of time is 12 consecutive hours of non-use.

The first time you turn on the monitor there will be a brief video highlighting the monitor's features (select models only). You can bypass the video by pressing the Esc key on your keyboard. If you would like to play this video again, it is stored as a sample in the Video player.

After the video ends or is bypassed the Startup Wizard will begin. Follow the instructions in the Startup Wizard to:

Select your language

Set the date and time

Set the timer to turn off the display after an assigned period of inactivity

Enter the network settings

Assign a password that secures access to the monitor settings and unlocks the monitor, if desired

NOTE: You can modify the settings that were entered in the Startup Wizard any time by clicking the Settings icon on the Net mode Home page. For more information on the settings in the Startup Wizard, refer to Adjusting the Settings on page 19.

After completing the Startup Wizard, the Net mode Home page will be displayed.

1912NC, 1912NM specifications

The HP 1912NM and 1912NC are robust and feature-rich network switches designed to meet the demands of modern networking environments, particularly in medium to large enterprises. These models stand out due to their performance, reliability, and the ability to integrate seamlessly into various IT infrastructure setups.

One of the key features of the HP 1912NM and 1912NC is their flexible port configurations. Each model typically offers several Gigabit Ethernet ports, with some variations depending on the specific configuration chosen. This flexibility allows administrators to tailor the switch to their specific networking needs, whether that be connecting numerous devices in a clustered environment or ensuring high-speed data transfer across a distributed enterprise.

Another significant characteristic of these switches is their support for Power over Ethernet (PoE). This feature simplifies network design by allowing devices such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, and IP cameras to be powered through the Ethernet cable itself. The 1912NM variant, in particular, includes enhanced PoE capabilities, making it an ideal choice for environments where powering devices directly from the switch can reduce cabling and installation costs.

In terms of management and configuration, both the 1912NM and 1912NC offer a web-based graphical interface, allowing for easy monitoring and configuration of network settings. Additionally, they support various management protocols, including SNMP, facilitating integration into larger network management systems. The switches are also equipped with features such as VLAN support, enabling network segmentation and enhancing security by isolating different types of traffic.

Security is further bolstered through advanced features like Access Control Lists (ACLs) and port security, giving administrators control over who can access certain parts of the network. Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities ensure that critical applications receive the bandwidth they need, preventing bottlenecks during peak usage times.

Moreover, the HP 1912NM and 1912NC are constructed for reliability and longevity, with features such as redundant power supplies available in specific models, designed to ensure uptime in critical applications. With their combination of performance, versatility, and management capabilities, these switches represent an excellent investment for organizations looking to enhance their network infrastructure.
