The inputs can be selected through the OSD by pressing the Menu button and selecting Input Control.
● 3. Connect one end of an HDMI cable to the HDMI port on the back of the monitor and the other end to the source device. You must connect the USB upstream cable from the source computer to the monitor to enable the USB ports on the monitor. ● For a USB Hub: Connect the Type-C end of a USB cable to a USB Type-C port on the monitor and the other end to a USB Type-A port on the source device.
● For Alt-mode: Connect the Type-C end of a USB cable to a USB Type-C port on the monitor and the other end to a USB Type-C port on the source device. NOTE: To set the video input source to USB-C, press the Menu button under the right side of the bezel, select Input Control, and then select USB-C Configuration. ● Select the option 3840 × 2160 @ 60 Hz + USB 2.0 for a higher vertical refresh rate and a lower USB speed. – or – ● 4.

Mounting the monitor The monitor panel can be attached to a wall, swing arm, or other mounting fixture. NOTE: This apparatus is intended to be supported by a UL– or CSA–Listed wall-mount bracket. CAUTION: This monitor supports the VESA industry-standard 100 mm mounting holes. To attach a thirdparty mounting solution to the monitor, four 4 mm, 0.7 pitch, 10 mm–long screws are required. Longer screws may damage the monitor.
Attaching the monitor to a mounting device 1. Remove the monitor stand. Refer to Removing the monitor stand on page 13. 2. Slide the hinge cover adapter plate onto the hinge on the back of the monitor and press until it clicks into place. 3. To attach the monitor to a swing arm (sold separately), insert four screws through the holes on the swing arm plate and into the mounting holes on the monitor.
2 Using the monitor Software and utilities You can download and install the following files to your computer from http://www.hp.com/support: ● INF (Information) file ● ICM (Image Color Matching) files (one for each calibrated color space) ● HP Display Assistant—adjusts the monitor settings and enables theft deterrence features The Information file The INF file defines monitor resources used by Windows® operating systems to ensure monitor compatibility with the computer’s graphics adapter.
Main Menu Description Input Control Selects the video input signal. Image Control Adjusts the screen image. PIP Control Selects and adjusts the PIP image. Power Control Adjusts the power settings. Menu Control Adjusts the OSD controls. Management Adjusts the DDC/CI settings and returns all OSD menu settings to the factory default settings. Language Selects the language in which the OSD menu is displayed. The factory default is English.
Using Picture-in-Picture (PIP) and Picture-beside-Picture (PBP) The monitor supports both PIP, where one source is overlaid over another, and PBP, where one source is positioned adjacent to another either horizontally (for landscape orientation) or vertically (for portrait orientation). Four FHD images can be displayed in the quad-PIP mode. To use PIP or PBP: 1. Connect a secondary input source to the monitor. 2.
Using Auto-Sleep Mode The monitor supports an OSD option called Auto-Sleep Mode that allows you to enable or disable a reduced power state for the display. When Auto-Sleep Mode is enabled (enabled by default), the monitor will enter a reduced power state when the computer signals low power mode (absence of either horizontal or vertical sync signal). Upon entering this reduced power state (sleep mode), the monitor screen is blanked, the backlight is turned off, and the power LED indicator turns amber.
