This device cannot be used or installed without the Tabletop Stand or other mounting accessory for support. For proper installation it is strongly recommended to use a trained, NEC authorized service person. Failure to follow NEC standard mounting procedures could result in damage to the equipment or injury to the user or installer. Product warranty does not cover damage caused by improper installation. Failure to follow these recommendations could result in voiding the warranty.
Orientation Attaching Mounting Accessories • The monitor is designed for use with the VESA mounting system. When using the display in the portrait position, the monitor should be rotated clockwise so that the left side is moved to the top and the LED indicator light is on the bottom. This will allow for proper ventilation and will extend the lifetime of the monitor. Improper ventilation may shorten the lifetime of the monitor. 1.
NOTE: If the mounting accessory interferes with the option board, ventilation hold or speaker attachment hole, use the included wall mount adaptors and screws. If the adaptor screws are too long, include a washer to reduce the depth. Washer not included. 5. Ventilation Requirements Unit Install the stand so the long end of the feet face forward. Use the ST-322 for the X401S, the ST-4020 for the X462S and the ST-5220 for the X552S.
7. Attaching optional external speaker (X401S) Follow these steps to connect to the speaker to the monitor. 1. Turn off the power to the monitor. 2.

Setup 1. Determine the installation location NEC recommends the following battery use: CAUTION: Installing your LCD monitor must be done by a qualified technician. Contact your dealer for more information. • Place “AA” size batteries matching the (+) and (-) signs on each battery to the (+) and (-) signs of the battery compartment. • Do not mix battery brands. • Do not combine new and old batteries. This can shorten battery life or cause liquid leakage of batteries.
When connected with a computer, switch on the power of the computer first. 6. Operate the attached external equipment Display the signal from the desired input source. 7. Adjust the sound Make volume adjustments when required. 8. Adjust the screen (See pages 22 and 23) Make adjustments of the screen display position when necessary. 9. Adjust the image (See page 22) Make adjustments such as backlight or contrast when required. 10.
Connections NOTE: Do not connect/disconnect cables when turning on the monitor or other external equipment as this may result in a loss of the monitor image. NOTE: Use an audio cable without a built-in resistor. Using an audio cable with a built-in resistor turns down the sound. Before making connections: * First turn off the power of all the attached equipment and make connections. * Refer to the user manual included with each separate piece of equipment.
Connecting your computer to your LCD monitor will enable you to display your computer’s screen image. Some video cards with a pixel clock over 162MHz may not display an image correctly.
