Tips and information for comfortable use
Computer users may complain of eyestrain and headaches after prolonged use. Users are also at risk of physical injury after long hours of working in front of a  computer. Long work periods, bad posture, poor work habits, stress, inadequate working conditions, personal health and other factors greatly increase the risk of  physical injury.
Incorrect computer usage may lead to carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, tenosynovitis or other musculoskeletal disorders. The following symptoms may appear in the  hands, wrists, arms, shoulders, neck or back:

  • numbness, or a burning or tingling sensation
  • aching, soreness or tenderness
  • pain, swelling or throbbing
  • stiffness or tightness
  • coldness or weakness

If you have these symptoms, or any other recurring or persistent discomfort and/or pain related to computer use, consult a physician immediately and inform your  company’s health and safety department.
The following section provides tips for more comfortable computer use.

Finding your comfort zone
Find your comfort zone by adjusting the viewing angle of the monitor, using a footrest, or raising your sitting height to achieve maximum comfort. Observe the following tips:

  • refrain from staying too long in one fixed posture
  • avoid slouching forward and/or leaning backward
  • stand up and walk around regularly to remove the strain on your leg muscles

Taking care of your vision
Long viewing hours, wearing incorrect glasses or contact lenses, glare, excessive room lighting, poorly focused screens, very small typefaces and low- contrast displays  could stress your eyes. The following sections provide suggestions on how to reduce eyestrain.
Eyes

  • Rest your eyes frequently.
  • Give your eyes regular breaks by looking away from the monitor and focusing on a instant point.
  • Blink frequently to keep your eyes from drying out.

Display

  • Keep your display clean.
  • Keep your head at a higher level than the top edge of the display so your eyes point downward when looking at the middle of the display.
  • Adjust the display brightness and/or contrast to a comfortable level for enhanced text readability and graphics clarity.
  • Eliminate glare and reflections by:
  • placing your display in such a way that the side faces the window or any light source
  • minimizing room light by using drapes, shades or blinds
  • using a task light
  • changing the display’s viewing angle
  • using a glare-reduction filter
  • using a display visor, such as a piece of cardboard extended from the display’s top front edge
  • Avoid adjusting your display to an awkward viewing angle.
  • Avoid looking at bright light sources, such as open windows, for extended periods of time.

Developing good work habits
Develop the following work habits to make your computer use more relaxing and productive:
• Take short breaks regularly and often.
• Perform some stretching exercises.
• Breathe fresh air as often as possible.
• Exercise regularly and maintain a healthy body.

Screen position adjustment
In odder to optimize the best viewing position, you can adjust the height/tilt of the monitor.

  • Tilt

Please see the illustration below for an example of the tilt range.
Only at the highest point can 15 degrees of recline be offered for the angle of elevation.

Connecting the AC Power cord

  • Check first to make sure that the power cord you use is the correct type required for your area.
  • The monitor has a universal power supply that allows operation in either 100/120 V AC or 220/240 V AC voltage area. No user-adjustment is required.
  • Plug one end of the AC power cord to the Adapter, and plug the other end into an AC outlet.
  • For units using 120 V AC: Use a UL-listed cord set, type SVT wire and plug rated 10 A/125 V.
  • For units using 220/240 V AC:
    Use a cord set consisting of H05VV-F cord and plug rated 10 A/250 V. The cord set should have the appropriate safety approvals for the country in which the equipment will be installed.

Power saving
The monitor will be driven into “Power Saving” mode by the control signal from the display controller, as indicated by the amber-color power LED.

State LED Light
ON Blue
Power Saving Mode Amber

The power saving states will be kept until a control signal has been detected or the keyboard or mouse is activated. The recovery time from Active OFF state back to  ON state is around 3 seconds.

Display Data Channel (DDC)
To make installation easier, so long as your system supports the DDC protocol, the monitor is able to plug-and-play. The DDC is a communication protocol through  which the monitor automatically informs the host system about its capabilities; for example, supported resolutions and corresponding timing. The monitor supports the DDC2B standard.
