Information Files; Installing The Monitor - Compaq V1000 User Manual

Information Files

This monitor includes a diskette with two information files that should
be installed onto your computer—an .INF file and an .ICM file. The
.INF file defines monitor resources and provides specifications used by
Windows 95 to install support software for certain hardware devices.
The .INF file ensures monitor compatibility with your computer's
graphics adapter. The .ICM file provides color matching consistency
from monitor screen to printer and is activated from within the graphics
programs that have this feature. To install these files onto your
computer, follow the instructions on the "Configuring Your Compaq
CRT Monitor" card.

Installing the Monitor

To install the monitor, ensure that the power is turned off to the monitor,
computer system, and other attached devices, then follow these steps:
1. Place the monitor in a convenient, well-ventilated location near,
but not on top of, your computer.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of possible injury, do not attempt to lift
!
the monitor by yourself. This monitor weighs approximately 65 pounds
and is not intended to be placed on top of a computer. However, the
Compaq Deskpro and Compaq Workstation computers are capable of
supporting a monitor that weighs up to 100 lbs. If you are not using a
Compaq Deskpro or Workstation, place the monitor directly on a
desktop or other work surface.
2. Connect one end of the monitor signal cable 2 to the monitor,
and the other end to the 15-pin connector on the rear panel of the
computer and tighten the screws.
Be sure the signal cable aligns with the 15-pin connector. Do
not force the cable onto the connector or you may damage
the signal cable.
