Software and utilities
The disc that comes with the monitor contains files you can install on the computer:
●an .INF (Information) file
●ICM (Image Color Matching) files (one for each calibrated color space)
●My Display software
The Information file
The .INF file defines monitor resources used by Microsoft Windows operating systems to ensure 
monitor compatibility with the computer’s graphics adapter.
This monitor is Microsoft Windows Plug and Play compatible and the monitor will work correctly  without installing the .INF file. Monitor Plug and Play compatibility requires that the computer’s 
graphic card is VESA DDC2–compliant and that the monitor connects directly to the graphics card. 
Plug and Play does not work through separate BNC type connectors or through distribution buffers/
boxes.
The Image Color Matching file
The .ICM files are data files that are used in conjunction with graphics programs to provide consistent 
color matching from monitor screen to printer, or from scanner to monitor screen. This file is activated 
from within graphics programs that support this feature.
NOTE:The ICM color profile is written in accordance with the International Color Consortium (ICC) 
Profile Format specification.
Installing the .INF and .ICM files
After you determine that you need to update, you can install the .INF and .ICM files from the disc or 
download them.

Using Auto-Sleep Mode
The display supports 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 you activate the mouse or keyboard).
You can disable the Auto-Sleep Mode in the OSD. Press the Menu button on the side panel to open 
the OSD. In the OSD select 
Power Control > Auto-Sleep Mode > Off.
