Unfolding the monitor pedestal base 1. Lift the monitor from its box and place it face down on a flat surface. 2. Hold down the monitor base with one hand (1) then grasp the top of the stand with the other hand and unfold the display head 90 degrees (2). CAUTION: Do not touch the surface of the LCD panel.
Rear components Figure 2-2 Rear components Component Description 1 AC power connector Connects the AC power cable to the monitor. 2 DisplayPort Connects the DisplayPort cable to the monitor. 3 VGA connector Connects the VGA cable to the monitor. 4 DVI-D connector Connects the DVI-D cable to the monitor. 5 Audio connector Connects the audio cable to the monitor. 6 USB upstream connector Connects the USB hub cable to the monitor's USB hub connector and to a host USB port/hub.
Connecting the cables 1. Place the monitor in a convenient, well-ventilated location near the computer. 2. Remove the cable management clip from the pedestal by pulling outward on the two sides of the clip (1) and lifting the clip off the pedestal (2). Figure 2-3 Removing the cable management clip 3. Connect a VGA signal cable, DVI-D signal cable, or DisplayPort signal cable. NOTE: The monitor is capable of supporting either analog or digital input. The video mode is determined by the video cable used.
6. Connect one end of the power cord to the AC power connector on the back of the monitor, and connect the other end to an electrical wall outlet. Figure 2-4 Connecting the cables WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment: Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature. Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
Adjusting the monitor NOTE: Your monitor model may look different than the model in the following illustrations. 1. Tilt the monitor's panel forward or backward to set it to a comfortable eye level. Figure 2-6 Tilting the monitor 2. Adjust the monitor’s height to a comfortable position for your individual workstation. The monitor’s top bezel edge should not exceed a height that is parallel to your eye height.
3. Pivot the monitor from landscape to portrait orientation viewing to adapt to your application. a. Adjust the monitor to full-height position and tilt the monitor back to full-tilt position (1). b. Pivot the monitor clockwise 90° from landscape to portrait orientation (2). CAUTION: If the monitor is not in full-height and full-tilt position when pivoting, the bottom right corner of the monitor panel will come in contact with the base and potentially cause damage to 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. L2206tm/L2206tmp Table A-2 Factory preset modes Preset Pixel format Horz freq (kHz) Vert freq (Hz) 1 640 × 480 31.469 59.940 2 720 × 400 31.469 70.087 3 800 × 600 37.879 60.317 4 1024 × 768 48.363 60.004 5 1280 × 720 45.
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.
B LCD monitor quality and pixel policy The TFT monitor uses high-precision technology that is manufactured according to HP standards to guarantee trouble-free performance. Nevertheless, the display may have cosmetic imperfections that appear as small bright or dark spots. This is common to all LCD displays used in products supplied by all vendors and is not specific to the HP LCD. These imperfections are caused by one or more defective pixels or sub-pixels.
