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 activate a screen saver application or 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.

NOTE: If pressing the power button has no effect, the Power Button Lockout feature may be enabled. To disable this feature, press and hold the monitor power button for 10 seconds.

NOTE: You can disable the power LED in the OSD menu. Press the Menu button on the front of the monitor, then select Management > Bezel Power LED > Off.

When the monitor is powered on, a Monitor Status message is displayed for five seconds. The message shows which input (USB or VGA) is the current active signal, the status of the auto-switch source setting (On or Off; factory default is On), the default source signal (factory default is USB), the current preset display resolution, and the recommended preset display resolution.

The monitor automatically scans the signal inputs for an active input and uses that input for the display. If two or more inputs are active, the monitor will display the default input source (USB). To switch between USB and VGA input sources, press the Source button on the monitor's front panel.
