Each video card has several controls that allow you to adjust the display settings, 

however, the software and driver for each video card is unique. In most cases, you 

can adjust these settings using a program or utility provided by the manufacturer of 

the video card. Most video cards use the Windows Display Properties control panel to 

configure the display. To open the Windows Display Properties, click the right mouse 

button in a blank area of the Windows desktop and then select Properties. The Settings 

tab usually lets you change the Color Palette and the Desktop Area (X by Y pixel 

resolution).
Some video cards integrate additional features into the Windows Display Properties 

control panel giving you an extra setup options that are flexible and easy to use. 

Forexample, the control panel may include an Advanced Properties button, an 

Adjustment tab, or a Refresh tab for changing other settings. Other video cards have a 

separate utility for setting display properties.
Whenever you change the resolution, color, or refresh rate, the image size, position, 

or shape may change. This behavior is normal.You can readjust the image using the 

monitor on-screen controls. For more information on the monitor on-screen controls, 

refer to Panel controls and OSD functions. For more information on configuring the 

display settings, please refer to the manual that accompanied your video card.

To test that the console is working properly, perform the following steps:
1.  Power up the monitor/keyboard drawer, and then turn on your computer.
2.  Make sure the video image is centered within the screen area. Use the OSD controls 

to adjust the image (see Panel controls and OSD functions) or press the Auto button 

on the right hand side of the monitor.

Note: If the unit does not power up when the panel is pulled up, try pushing the soft 

power on/off button on the left side of the monitor panel to power up the unit.
