To avoid burn-in image damage on the monitor screen, you should always activate a screen saver application or turn off the monitor when it is not in use for a prolonged period of time. Image retention is a condition that may occur on all LCD screens. Monitors with a “burned-in image” are not covered under the HP warranty. A prolonged period of time is 12 consecutive hours of a static image. NOTE: If pressing the power button has no effect, the Power Button Lockout feature may be enabled. To disable this feature, press and hold the monitor power button for 10 seconds. NOTE: You can disable the power LED in the OSD menu. Press the Menu button on the front of the monitor, then select Management > Bezel Power LED > Off. When the monitor is powered on, a Monitor Status message is displayed for five seconds. The message shows which input is the current active signal, the status of the auto-switch source setting (On or Off; factory default is On), the default source signal (factory default is DisplayPort), the current preset display resolution, and the recommended preset display resolution. The monitor automatically scans the signal inputs for an active input and uses that input for the display. If two or more inputs are active, the monitor will display the default input source. If the default source is not one of the active inputs, then the monitor will display the highest ranking priority input. You can change the default source in the OSD by pressing the front panel Menu button and selecting Input Control > Default Input.
HP Watermark and Image Retention Policy
The IPS monitor models are designed with IPS (In-Plane Switching) display technology which provides ultra-wide viewing angles and advanced image quality. IPS monitors are suitable for a wide variety of advanced image quality applications. This panel technology, however, is not suitable for
14 Chapter 2 Setting Up and Using the Monitor

applications that exhibit static, stationary or fixed images for long periods of time without the use of screen savers. These types of applications may include camera surveillance, video games, marketing logos, and templates that are displayed on the screen for a prolonged period of time. Static images may cause image retention damage that could look like stains or watermarks on the monitor’s screen.
Monitors in use for 24 hours per day that result in image retention damage are not covered under the HP warranty. To avoid image retention damage, always turn off the monitor when it is not in use or use the power management setting, if supported on your system, to turn off the display when the system is idle.
Connecting USB Devices
USB connectors are used to connect devices such as a digital camera, USB keyboard, or USB mouse. There are four downstream USB ports on the monitor (two on the rear and two on the side).
NOTE: You must connect the USB hub cable from the monitor to the computer to enable the USB ports on the monitor. Refer to Step 4 in Connecting the Cables on page 6.

Removing the Monitor Stand
You can remove the monitor panel from the stand to install the panel on a wall, a swing arm, or other mounting fixture.

You can attach the monitor panel to a mounting fixture using the HP Quick Release 2 mounting bracket or you can attach the monitor panel to a mounting fixture without the HP Quick Release 2 mounting bracket. NOTE: This apparatus is intended to be supported by UL or CSA Listed wall mount bracket. 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.

Locating the Information Card
Identifying information is located on the pull-out card (and included on a label on the back of the monitor). The card pulls out from behind the USB connectors on the left side of the panel. Warranty support information (model number, serial number, product number) is printed on the front of the card (and the label) and regulatory information is printed on the back of the card.
Locating the Serial Number and Product Number 21

Installing a Cable Lock
You can secure the monitor to a fixed object with an optional cable lock available from HP.
Power Saving Features
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 .5 watts 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.
Power-Saver Mode
The monitor includes a Power-Saver Mode that can be quickly adjusted in the OSD while the monitor is still in use. The Power Saver function serves primarily to reduce LED backlight current (display brightness) in stages to enable power savings of the monitor. The savings levels are NOT calibrated but are approximate savings based on power measurements conducted during product qualification. To adjust the power savings, press the Menu button on the front of the monitor to open the OSD and select Management > Power-Saver Mode. Set the power savings to one of the following: Off 10% Savings 20% Savings
22 Chapter 2 Setting Up and Using the Monitor

30% Savings 40% Savings 50% Savings NOTE: The power saving percentages are based on a pre-test of multiple units. Actual power reductions and screen results may vary from unit to unit. Adjusting the power saving percentages does not affect power reserved for the USB ports.
Auto-Sleep Mode
These displays support an OSD (On-Screen Display) 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 host PC 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. The monitor draws less than 0.5W of power when in this reduced power mode. The monitor will wake from the sleep mode when the host PC sends an active signal to the monitor (for example, if the user activates the mouse or keyboard).
Sleep Timer
The Sleep Timer OSD (On-Screen Display) option is an energy-saving feature that enables you to set a time for the monitor to enter and exit a reduced power state (Sleep Mode) at the programmable times each day. This can help you save energy and can potentially extend the life of the display. The Sleep Timer has five settings: Set Current Time Set Sleep Time Set On Time Timer: On/Off Sleep Now To set the timer: 1. Press the Menu button on the monitor front panel to display the OSD Menu. 2. Scroll down and highlight Management. 3. Press the OK button to select Management. 4. Scroll down and highlight and select Sleep Timer > Set Current Time.
NOTE: You must set the current local time before you set the time for Sleep Time or On Time. Note that the time is displayed in a 24-hour clock format. For example, 1:15 p.m. is displayed as 13 hours 15 minutes. A power failure or loss of power to the monitor will cause the timer to reset to 00:00. If this occurs, you will need to reset the sleep timer. 5. Press the OK button once to enter the adjustment mode for hours. 6. Press the – (Minus) or + (Plus) button to adjust the hour. 7. Press the OK button again to enter the time for minutes.
Power Saving Features 23

8. Press the – (Minus) or + (Plus) button to adjust the minutes. 9. Press the OK button to lock in the time chosen. 10. After setting the current time, the highlight automatically skips to Set Sleep Time. Repeat steps
6 through 9 to set Sleep Time. 11. If you do not want to set Sleep Time, press the OK button twice, then select Save and Return
to exit the menu. 12. After setting Sleep Time, the highlight automatically skips to Set On Time. Repeat steps 6
through 9 to set On Time. 13. Set the Timer to On to activate the Sleep Timer settings. 14. When you are finished, select Save and Return to exit the menu. The fifth selection, Sleep Now, turns the monitor backlights off immediately and stays in sleep mode until the next On Time activates or a monitor button is pressed.

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.
