Workplace Preparation
This section gives advice
ion what you should
consider before you set up
your monitor.
Height
Position the monitor so that the top of the screen is slightly below your eye
level when you sit at your workstation.
Orientation
- Choose a position that gives the least reflection from lights and windows,
usually at a right angle to any windows.
- Positon the monitor directly in front of you so that you do not have to twist
your body to use it.
- Tilt the monitor to a comfortable viewing angle.

Adjusting the Monitor Position
With the IBM Flat Panel
i
Monitor, you can adjust its
position in various ways for
maximum comfort.
Viewing Angle
You can tilt the screen forward and backward as shown below in Figure A.

Working Practices
This section gives advice
ion how you can work
comfortably and reduce
fatigue.
Rest
Take regular breaks. Vary your posture, stand up and stretch occasionally
as prolonged use of computer workstations can be tiring.
Back
Sit back in your chair and use the backrest.
Hands
Adjust the seat height so that your forearms are approximately horizontal
and your wrists are straight when using the keyboard. Your upper arms
should be relaxed with your elbows near your body.
Use a light touch on the keyboard, keeping your hands and fingers relaxed.
Allow a space in front of the keyboard to rest your wrists when not typing.
Consider using a wristpad.
Eyesight
Working with monitors, in common with any prolonged close work, can be
visually demanding. Look away from the screen periodically and have your
eyesight checked regularly.
Screen settings
Set the screen brightness and contrast to a comfortable level. You may
have to adjust these settings as the lighting changes during the day. Many
application programs let you select color combinations which can help you
to view in comfort. See the User controls section on page 16 for more
information.
Caring for your Monitor
Be sure to turn off the power before you perform any maintenance on the
monitor. Clean your monitor as follows:
• Gently wipe the covers and the screen with a soft cloth.
Do not use solvents or abrasives.
• Remove finger marks and grease with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
• Never use flammable cleaning materials to clean your IBM monitor or
any other electrical apparatus.

Automatic Image Setup
Image Setup
Before carrying out this
section, it is very important
that the correct monitor
drivers have been
installed.(See pages 9 and
11)
For digital input, image setup is not required.
When you first use your monitor, you must perform Auto Setup for analog
input. If you are using digital input, continue with the instructions on page 6.
This procedure sets up your monitor to process the video signals from your
computer without image discoloration or smearing. After you perform Auto
Setup, the settings are stored and used each time you turn on the monitor.
The Setup Utility included
ion the setup CD displays a
test pattern of dots. It does not
replace or modify the display
drivers.
In order to optimize the displayed image a set-up utility is provided on the
IBM Monitor CD. Operation of this utility is dependent on the operating
system on your computer. You may choose to run IMAGE SETUP for each
operating system that you use. This means that if you sometimes use your
monitor while running any version of Windows and sometimes also use it
from within DOS (not a DOS window), you must run IMAGE SETUP for
both Windows and DOS. You may run versions of IMAGE SETUP in any
order.
The Image Setup
iinstructions require the
monitor to be warmed up for 15
minutes. This is not required
for normal operation.
If your computer does not
irun with the setup CD
shipped with the monitor, refer
to Manual Image Setup on
page 15.
Before you begin IMAGE SETUP for your computer, make sure the
computer video mode is set in the range of the supported screen
resolution shown in the table on page 20.
You should perform IMAGE SETUP for each screen mode you use.
The Image Setup process
ionly applies to the current
screen mode. When a new
mode is selected, repeat this
section to reset the monitor.

Power Management
To benefit from power management, the monitor must be used in
conjunction with a computer that implements the Video Electronics
Standards Association (VESA) Display Power Management Signaling
(DPMS) Standard.
The power management feature is invoked when the computer recognizes
that you have not used your mouse or keyboard for a user-definable period.
There are several states as described in the table below.
As an ENERGY STAR 2000® Partner, IBM has determined that this product
meets the ENERGY STAR 2000® guidelines for energy efficiency.
For optimal performance switch off your monitor at the end of each working
day, or whenever you expect to leave it unused for long periods during the
day.
