Tilting the Display

The monitors have a tilt feature that allows you to tilt the display back and forth as well as left and
right to find the most comfortable viewing position. To tilt the display, grasp the sides and push the
display back or pull it toward you, or turn it left or right until it is in the desired position. The
display can be tilted 20° backward and 5° forward.
Note:
Do not tilt the display by grasping the top edge.

Setting the Video Mode

Since the inherent format of this display is 1024 pixels by 768 lines, the display will perform best
when your PC is set to a screen resolution of 1024 x 768. If you use a lower resolution (such as 640
x 480), the image is expanded to fill the screen.
Your display supports many common video modes, as shown in "Video Modes" on page 24. Check
the documentation supplied with your PC and video adapter card to find out which modes they
support.
To see what the video mode in your Microsoft Windows, please check Windows' settings in your
PC.

Setting the Refresh Rate

The image refresh rate is the number of times per second that the image is refreshed; it is also
known as the vertical frequency.
On standard CRT displays, we recommend that you should use the highest possible refresh rate
supported by your PC at the current screen resolution. This is necessary to avoid screen flickering
and to minimize eyestrain. However, with your LCD Monitor, flicker is not an issue. It is flick-free
at all supported refresh rates.
The table in "Video Mode" on page 24 shows the image refresh rates supported by the display at
different screen resolution. Although your LCD monitor supports up to 75 Hz for analog video
input, we recommend that you use 60 Hz refresh rate for best performance.
To set the refresh rate with a standard Windows installation, follow the steps mentioned in your
Windows's or graphic card's user's manual.
