If access to the back of the display will be difficult, you can attach all cables to each display before installation on the wall mount and turn the main power switch ON () before placing the display flush against the wall. You can perform any desired color calibration before mounting, or you can install a USB extension cable in the USB port to facilitate color calibration in the future.

If you will be installing the HP LD4730 Framing System, do so after all displays have been mounted and adjusted.

Software and utilities

HP displays are Plug-and-Play with Windows® XP, Windows Vista®, and Windows 7 operating systems, so you do not need to install the .INF file or the .ICM file for these operating systems. Software, utilities and documentation are provided on the CD that comes with the display. The most current versions of the following software and utilities can be downloaded from the following HP website for use with the displays as needed: www.hp.com.

Display driver firmware

Auto-adjustment Pattern Utility — Optimizes the display of VGA input.

Supporting system files, .INF and .ICM

HP Network Sign Manager — Remote management and control software. Allows you to select and control displays singly or in groups, remotely from a media player/computer connected by RS-232 or Ethernet.

Video Over Ethernet — Software that runs on the media player/computer which lets you discover network connected displays, associate displays to any media player/computer attached to the network, and send video from the media player/computer to the associated display.

You can also install any of these from the CD that comes with the display.

The information file

The setup information, or .INF file, defines display resources used by Microsoft® Windows operating systems to ensure display compatibility with the media player/computer’s graphics adapter.

The image color matching file

The image color matching, or .ICM file, is a color data file that is used in conjunction with graphics applications to provide consistent color matching from display screen to printer, or from scanner to the display screen. The .ICM file is only activated from within the graphics applications that support this feature.

Installing the driver, .INF and .ICM files

The display driver firmware and the supporting system files are packaged together and installed with one download operation.

You can install the .INF and .ICM files from the CD or download them from the HP displays support website.

Installing from the CD

To install the .INF and .ICM files on the media player/computer from the CD:

1.Insert the CD in the media player/computer CD-ROM drive. The CD menu appears.

2.View the Display Driver Readme file.
