There are two degaussing methods. Each time
you turn on the monitor, it is automatically
degaussed. You can also use the Degauss option
in the onscreen display (OSD) main window to
degauss the display.
See “Using the OSD Main Window” on page 9
for instructions.
Setting the Screen Resolution
The screen resolution determines the amount of
information shown in the display. Screen
resolution refers to the number of dots or

pixels

used to make up an image. A low screen
resolution means that the display uses a
relatively small number of relatively large dots. A
higher resolution means that more dots of a
smaller size make up the image. With higher
screen resolutions, icons, windows, and text are
smaller on the screen, but more information can
be displayed.
Use the Window’s Control Panel to set the
screen resolution. The monitor supports many
common screen resolutions.
Selecting Refresh Rate
To minimise eyestrain and maximise the
performance of your display, use the highest
possible image refresh rate or vertical frequency
for which you don’t perceive flicker (generally at
or above 75 Hz for most users). The image
refresh rate is the number of times per second
that the image is refreshed. The “Pre-Set Video
Modes” table shows the image refresh rates
supported by the monitors at different screen
resolutions.
Minimising Energy Use
HP Pavilions support VESA Display Power
Management Signalling (DPMS). Power
management features reduce the monitor’s
power consumption after a period of keyboard
inactivity.
