Just follow the prompts to load the native Plug and Play drivers.
6 Setting the Display Resolution Choosing The Best Resolution All Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) have a fixed resolution that is the same as the maximum resolution that may be displayed on the LCD. In the case of the EN7410 the LCD resolution is 1280 x 1024 pixels. This is also known as the “native” resolution of the monitor. Lower resolutions can be displayed at full screen through an interpolation circuit.
Supported Graphics Modes and Refresh Rate Selection There is no need to choose the highest possible refresh rate when using an LCD monitor. It is not technically possible for an LCD monitor to flicker. Even at a refresh rate of 60 Hz you will get an absolutely flicker-free image. For best results, it is important that you set the graphics adaptor to use one of the monitor’s preset display modes shown in Table 1 on the next page. Other graphics signals may be displayed poorly or not at all.

If it is still visible after using the Automatic adjustment, you can usually improve the displayed image by manually adjusting the phase, horizontal position and pixel frequency settings using the "Geometry" menu. See Chapter 7, Adjusting the Monitor, for more details. • When you shut Windows down you may see interference lines on your screen.
7 Adjusting the Monitor Picture Optimisation The easiest way to obtain an optimal picture is by using the Auto button for 2 seconds. This only works reliably if the graphics adaptor is set to use one of the monitor’s factory modes (see Table 1 in the previous chapter) and if you are displaying a suitable stationary image (such as the windows desktop). The monitor will remember the settings obtained by the auto calibration settings and use them whenever you turn the monitor on.
