CD Software and Utilities

The CD that comes with this monitor contains files you can install on your PC:

■An INF file

■An ICM file

■Auto-adjustment pattern utility

■Adobe Acrobat Reader

The auto-adjustment pattern utility is a single pattern program that helps improve the picture quality of your VGA (analog) input monitor. See “Using the Auto-Adjustment Function” in this chapter.

Adobe Acrobat Reader can be installed from the menu.

The Information File

This monitor is Windows Plug and Play compatible, and the monitor works correctly without installing the INF file. The INF file enables the PC to communicate with the monitor and use all the monitor features. The INF file defines monitor resources used by Microsoft® Windows® operating systems to ensure monitor compatibility with your PC’s graphics adapter.

Monitor Plug and Play compatibility requires that the PC’s graphics card is VESA DDC2 compliant and that the monitor connects directly to the graphics card. Plug and Play does not work through separate BNC-type connectors or through distribution buffers or boxes. You may have to install the INF file from the disc if these conditions are not met.
