Using Your
LE500 Monitor
This monitor provides high resolution performance and operates in a variety of video
modes. The flat square tube design makes images easier to see.
The Microprocessor-based On-Screen Display (OSD) controls let you adjust a variety of
image settings.
Safety precautions
Read all instructions before using the monitor, and save them for later use.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
To avoid electrical shock, never open the monitor case.
Never use the monitor if the power cable has been damaged. Do not allow anything
to rest on the power cable.
The openings in the monitor cabinet are for ventilation. Do not block or cover these
openings. Do not insert anything into these openings. If you put the monitor in a
bookcase or some other enclosed space, be sure to leave space for ventilation.
Do not expose the monitor to rain or use near water. Turning on a monitor that has
been exposed to moisture will cause damage. If the monitor gets wet, unplug it, and
contact technical support.
This monitor is equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug as a safety feature. This
plug will only fit into a grounding-type outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug
into an outlet, contact an electrician to install the appropriate outlet. Do not try to
remove any of the prongs.

Using Your LE500 Monitor
Setting up the monitor
Setting up the monitor consists of two procedures: attaching the base and connecting the
monitor cables.
If you are setting up your system for the first time, refer to the setup poster for more
information about connecting additional peripherals.
To attach the base:
1 Carefully set the monitor on its side with the bottom of the monitor facing you.
2 Hold the base so that the narrow end is pointed toward the back of the monitor.
3 Align the four hooks on the bottom of the base with the corresponding slots on the
bottom of the monitor.
4 Slide the base toward the front of the monitor so that all hooks are securely in place.
A retaining latch built into the base clicks into place when the base is correctly
attached.
5 Carefully set the monitor upright and place the monitor on a sturdy, level surface.
Setting up the monitor
To connect the power and video cables:
1 Position the monitor and the computer so that you can easily get at the back panel
of each. Make sure all power cables can reach a properly grounded electrical outlet.
AC power connector
Video cable (permanently connected)
2 Connect the video cable to the matching blue video connector on the back of your
computer.
3 Tighten the screws on the video cable connectors to keep them from coming loose.
Tightening the screws also prevents radio and TV interference.
4 Connect the power cord that came with the monitor to the AC power connector at
the back of the monitor. To maintain FCC standards, only use the cord that came
with the monitor.
5 Plug the other end of the power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet.

ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency.
This monitor complies with the EPA's International ENERGY STAR Program, which is
a program designed to have manufacturers of computer equipment build circuitry into their
products to reduce energy consumption during time of non-use.
Energy declaration
When connected to a computer that supports the VESA Display Power Management
Signaling (DPMS) Protocol, this monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing
power consumption during periods of non-use. When the computer goes into the energy
saving mode (Standby), the monitor goes into a suspended operating state and the power
LED light changes from a green color to an amber color.
After an extended period in the suspended mode, the monitor will then enter the Off mode
(different from total shut down). In the Off mode the Power LED will still show amber.
By following these conventions the power can be reduced to the following levels:
VESA state
LED
indicator
Power consumption
On
Green
Standby
Amber
Less than 10 W
