Net Mode vs PC Mode  
The monitor can operate as a stand-alone Internet monitor (Net mode) or as a standard external  
monitor connected to a PC (PC mode).  
Net Mode: No PC is required. An active Ethernet cable is required for Internet access. In this  
mode you can browse the Internet, watch videos, listen to music, or view photographs.  
PC Mode: A PC is required. In this mode the monitor functions as a standard monitor and is  
totally independent of the Net mode interface and settings.  
You can set up the monitor for both Net mode and PC mode and switch between the two modes by  
pressing the Mode button on the front of the monitor.  
To set up the monitor for Net mode, refer to Connecting the Cables for Net Mode on page 7. To  
set up the monitor for PC mode, refer to Connecting the Cables for PC Mode on page 9.

2 Setting Up the Monitor  
You can install the monitor on a desktop or mount it on a mounting fixture such as a wall mount or  
swing arm. Be sure to place the monitor in a convenient, well- ventilated location. Connect the  
monitor cables after you have installed the monitor.  
To set up the monitor, ensure that the power is turned off to the monitor and all attached devices,  
then follow the instructions below for your configuration.  
Preparing the Monitor for Desktop Use  
To assemble the monitor for desktop use:  
1. Set the monitor screen face down on a flat, soft, protected table or desk surface with the support  
column overhanging the edge.  
2. Align the center column with the base and push the center column onto the base (1). Then align  
the monitor support column with the center column and push the monitor all the way onto the  
center column (2) until it snaps securely in place.  
Figure 2-1 Installing the Monitor Center Column and Base  
3. Lift the monitor to an upright position and place on a flat, stable surface.

Preparing the Monitor for Wall-Mounting  
NOTE: This apparatus is intended to be supported by UL or CSA Listed wall mount bracket.  
To attach the monitor to a mounting fixture:  
1. Set the monitor screen face down on a flat, soft, protected table or desk surface with the support  
column overhanging the edge.  
2. If the center column and base are attached to the monitor, pinch together the two release tabs  
on the bottom of the base (1) and pull the base off the center column (2). Then press the button  
on the rear of the center column (3) and slide the center column off the monitor support column  
(4).

4. To attach the monitor to a mounting fixture, insert four 10mm screws through the holes on the  
mounting plate and into the mounting holes on the monitor.  
CAUTION: This monitor supports the VESA industry standard 100 mm mounting holes. To  
attach a third-party mounting solution to the monitor, four 4 mm, 0.7 pitch, and 10 mm long  
screws are required. Longer screws must not be used because they may damage the monitor. It  
is important to verify that the manufacturer’s mounting solution is compliant with the VESA  
standard and is rated to support the weight of the monitor display panel. For best performance, it  
is important to use the power and video cables provided with the monitor.

Recognizing Preset Display Resolutions  
The display resolutions listed below are the most commonly used modes and are set as factory  
defaults. This monitor automatically recognizes these preset modes and they will appear properly  
sized and centered on the screen.  
NOTE: The preset modes can only be adjusted if the monitor is in PC mode. In Net mode, the  
preset is locked at 1366 x 768 at 60Hz and cannot be adjusted.

Entering User Modes  
The video controller signal may occasionally call for a mode that is not preset if:  
You are not using a standard graphics adapter.  
You are not using a preset mode.  
It this occurs, you may need to readjust the parameters of the monitor screen by using the on-screen  
display. Your changes can be made to any or all of these modes and saved in memory. The monitor  
automatically stores the new setting, then recognizes the new mode just as it does a preset mode. In  
addition to the factory preset modes, there are at least 10 user modes that can be entered and  
stored.

Energy Saver Feature  
The monitors support a reduced power state. The reduced power state will be entered into if the  
monitor detects the absence of either the horizontal sync signal and/or the vertical sync signal. Upon  
detecting the absence of these signals, the monitor screen is blanked, the backlight is turned off, and  
the power light is turned amber. When the monitor is in the reduced power state, the monitor will  
utilize less than one watt of power. There is a brief warm up period before the monitor will return to its  
normal operating mode.  
Refer to the computer manual for instructions on setting energy saver features (sometimes called  
power management features).  
NOTE: The above power saver feature only works when connected to computers that have energy  
saver features.  
By selecting the settings in the monitor's Energy Saver utility, you can also program the monitor to  
enter into the reduced power state at a predetermined time. When the monitor's Energy Saver utility  
causes the monitor to enter the reduced power state, the power light blinks amber.
