Connecting Universal Serial Bus
(USB) compliant peripherals
Your monitor has one upstream and four downstream USB
connectors. They provide a fast and easy way to connect USB
compliant peripheral devices (such as keyboards, mice, printers
and scanners) to your computer using a standardized USB cable.
To use your monitor as a hub for your peripheral devices, connect
the USBs as illustrated below.

and select Generic USB Hub as the default setting.

Notes
• Not all computers and /or operating systems support USB
configurations. Check your computer's instruction manual to see if you
can connect USB devices.
• In most cases, USB driver software needs to be installed on the host
computer. Refer to the peripheral device's instruction manual for
further details.
• The monitor functions as a USB hub as long as the monitor is either
"on" or in power saving mode.
• If you connect a keyboard or mouse to the USB connectors and then
boot your computer for the first time, the peripheral devices may not
function. First connect the keyboard and mouse directly to the
computer and set up the USB compliant devices. Then connect them to
this monitor.

• This function is intended for use with a computer running Windows or
similar graphic user interface software that provides a full-screen
picture. It may not work properly if the background color is dark or if
the input picture does not fill the screen to the edges (such as an MS-
DOS prompt).
• The picture will fill the screen to the edges only if the aspect ratio of the
picture is 16:10. Pictures with an aspect ratio other than 16:10 are
displayed at their actual resolution and do not fill the screen to the
edges.
• The displayed image moves for a few seconds while this function is
performed. This is not a malfunction.
