Using the monitor

For instructions about turning on your monitor, see “Turning the Monitor On” in Chapter 1. To change resolutions on your monitor, see the manuals that came with your operating software or video card.

In most cases, once you turn on the monitor, you will not have to make any adjustments to the picture. If necessary, you can adjust or fine-tune the picture to suit your personal preference. See Chapter 3 for more information.

Note: The files on the Apple Multiple Scan Software for Macintosh disk are useful only for Macintosh computer systems.
