Configure Monitor
The Command Console offers several methods to set up the monitor, depend- ing on the operating system used for your computer. Use the Setup Diskette and select the setup that is best for your computer operating system.
When first used, you must perform Automatic Setup (AUTO SETUP). This procedures sets up the monitor to process the video signals from the computer without image discoloration or smearing. After performing AUTO SETUP, the settings are stored and used each time the monitor is turned on.
The Setup Utility included on the Setup Diskette is for display dot patterns. They do not replace or modify the display driver.
The Automatic Setup instructions require the monitor to be warmed up for 15 minutes. However, this is not required for normal operation.
