CHAPTER 1

The LCD Monitor

Your new LCD Monitor

Your LCD monitor has been designed to be versatile, ergonomic and user-friendly. The LCD monitor is capable of displaying most standards, from 640 x 480 VGA to 1280 x 1024 SXGA. The digital controls located on the front panel allow the user to easily adjust the monitor’s display parameters. The LCD monitor’s small footprint allows you more room in your workspace for other peripherals. Lightweight and compact, the LCD monitor is the perfect solution for all type of users. You can use the LCD monitor for everything from making business presentations to playing computer games. The two stereo speakers allow you to further expand your computer’s multimedia capabilities by connecting your computer’s Audio out port to the LCD monitor’s Audio in port. If you have a complete workstation, the LCD monitor has the additional feature of an optional wall-mountable and VESA compliant arm-mounted bracket for added convenience.

The architecture of the LCD monitor incorporates an LCD panel that produces a clear display without radiation emission, limiting health concerns. With its low power consumption, the LCD monitor helps you reduce your power bill.

Unpacking

Before you unpack your LCD monitor, prepare a suitable workspace for the monitor and computer. You need a stable, level and clean surface near a wall outlet. Even though the LCD monitor uses very little power, you should put it in a location, which allows sufficient airflow to ensure that the monitor and your computer do not become too hot. Set up your LCD monitor so that the panel doesn’t face a window where sunlight often comes in. The glare caused by sunlight reflecting off the LCD monitor’s screen will make it difficult to see.
