Disconnect the monitor by grasping the plug firmly and pulling it from the outlet. Never disconnect the monitor by pulling the cord. ● Turn the monitor off when not in use. You can substantially increase the life expectancy of the monitor by using a screen saver program and turning off the monitor when not in use.
3 Setting Up the Monitor To set up the monitor, ensure that the power is turned off to the monitor, computer system, and other attached devices, then follow the instructions below. Installing the Monitor on the Stand CAUTION: Do not touch the surface of the LCD panel. Pressure on the panel may cause nonuniformity of color or disorientation of the liquid crystals. If this occurs the screen will not recover to its normal condition. 1.
2. Place the stand on a desktop or table and push the neck on the stand down to its lowest position. Slide the monitor all the way onto the stand so that the Quick Release mounting device emits an audible click and is locked in place. Figure 3-2 Installing the Monitor on the Stand 3. Route the monitor VGA and power cables through the cable guides at the bottom corners of the mounting panel (select models). Figure 3-3 Routing Monitor VGA and Power Cables 4.
Installing an HP Ultra-slim Desktop (USDT) on the Stand You can install an HP USDT or Thin Client computer on the rear side of the stand. This section provides instructions on installing the USDT. 1. On the rear of the stand, remove the two screws (1) from the top of the computer mounting bracket and lift the bracket off the stand (2).
2. Use the four screws provided to install the computer mounting bracket on the USDT computer. NOTE: There are two sets of screw holes on the computer mounting bracket. Use the four holes that are offset to install the USDT.
