Introduction
This monitor provides high resolution performance and operates in a
variety of video modes. Microprocessor-based On-Screen Display
(OSD) controls let you adjust a variety of image options, automatically
storing various user modes, including eight factory preset modes.
Introduction

Safety Precautions
EV500-u5.p65
Read all instructions before using the monitor and save them for
later use.
Follow all warning and instructions marked on this product.
To avoid electrical shock, never open the monitor case.
Unplug the monitor from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use
only a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol
cleaners.
Never use the monitor if the power cable has been damaged. Do
not allow anything to rest on the power cable. Keep the cable
away from traffic.
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 it near water. If the
monitor gets wet, unplug it and contact Technical Support.
This monitor is equipped with a 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.
If an extension cord is used with this monitor, ensure that the
total ampere ratings of the products plugged into the extension
cord do not exceed the extension cord’s ampere rating. Also,
make sure that the total of all products plugged into the wall outlet
does not exceed 15 amperes.
If any problem occur, unplug the monitor and contact Technical
Support.

Installation
Use the following steps to install your monitor. If you are setting up
your system for the first time, refer to the setup poster for more
information about connecting additional peripherals.
Step 1 - Attach the Base
your monitor comes with a tilt/swivel base, which is shipped separate
from the monitor. Install the base as follows:
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 rear of the monitor so that all hooks are
securely in place. A retaining latch built into the bottom of the
monitor clicks into place when the base is correctly attached.
5. Carefully set the monitor upright and place the monitor on a
sturdy, even surface.
Installation
EV500-u5.p65
1999/9/16, PM 05:41
Step 2 - Connect power and signal cables
1. Position the monitor and the computer so that you can easily get
at the back panel of each. Make sure all cables can reach a
properly grounded electrical outlet.
2. Connect the video cable’s blue connector to the matching blue
video card connector on the back of your computer. Ensure that
the “D” shape of the connectors match.
3. Tighten the screws on the video cable connector to keep them
from coming loose and to prevent 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
mandatory FCC standards, use only the cord that came with the
monitor.
5. Plug the end of the power cord into a properly grounded electrical
outlet.
A. AC power connector
B. Attached video cable with blue connector

Removing the base
You can use your monitor without the base to save space or to fit it
into a smaller area in a computer desk. Remove the base as follows:
1. Turn off the monitor and disconnect any cables.
2. Carefully set the monitor on its side with the bottom of the
monitor facing you.
3. Rotate the base so that you can easily get to the retaining latch on
the bottom of the monitor.
4. Press down on the retaining latch. While holding down the latch,
slide the base toward the back of the monitor.

Operation
Starting the monitor
1. Press the power button once. The power LED lights and the
monitor demagnetizes itself for about five seconds.
Caution!
During this time, the monitor generates a strong magnetic field.
This field can erase or seriously affect data stored on magnetic
tapes or diskettes that are stored or placed next to the monitor.
2. Turn on the computer.
3. Once the system is running, the power LED on the monitor
should be green. If not, check the connections and refer to the
“Troubleshooting” section of this guide..
4. Adjust the controls to get the best picture. Experiment with the
display settings to choose the ideal image size and position for
you. Go to the “Adjusting display setting” section in this guide for
information about changing your display.
Note:
If you need to disconnect the power cord from either the wall
socket or monitor, wait 30 seconds after you turn off the
monitor before you unplug it. Wait 30 seconds lets the monitor
discharge any static electricity from the screen surface so you
will not get any static shocks.
