2SetupYour IBM Digital TFT MonitorTo provide the best performance your Digital TFT Monitor uses a digital video card which was shipped in the monitor package Accessories box. You may also use your own digital video card.Workplace PreparationThis section gives advice on what you should consider before you set up your monitor.Height The monitor should be positioned so that the top of the screen is slightly below your eye level when you sit at your workstation.Orientation Choose a position that gives the least reflection from lights and windows, usually at a right angle to any windows. The monitor should be positioned directly in front of you so that you do not have to twist your body to use it. Tilt the monitor to a comfortable viewing angle.Working PracticesThis section gives advice on how you can work comfortably and reduce fatigue.RestTake regular breaks. Vary your posture, stand up and stretch occasionally as prolonged use of computer workstations can be tiring.BackYou should sit back in your chair and use the backrest.HandsUse a light touch on the keyboard, keeping your hands and fingers relaxed. Allow a space in front of the keyboard to rest your wrists when not typing. Consider using a wristpad.EyesightWorking with monitors, in common with any prolonged close work, can be visually demanding. Look away from the screen periodically and have your eyesight checked regularly.T55D.book  Page 2  Wednesday, July 29, 1998  11:40 PM

6Graphics Card InstallationOverviewThe graphics card included in your monitor package uses a Matrox graphics engine to help the monitor provide superior performance with Windows, digital video and 3D graphics. To further accelerate 3D programs, your graphics card uses bus mastering and has hardware-accelerated features, including texture mapping, Gouraud shading and Z-buffering. This graphics card also supports more advanced 3D features such as alpha-blending, anti-aliasing, MIP-mapping, and more. Depending on the model of your graphics card, it supports display resolutions up to 1800×1440 and 1920×1200.Your graphics card is 100% VGA compatible and supports all VESA standards: VBE 2.0 (Super VGA modes), DPMS (energy saving), and DDC-2B (Plug-and-Play monitors).Also, depending on the model of your graphics card, you can upgrade it with more RAM graphics memory or multimedia hardware add-ons. For more information on available upgrades, see the Matrox Web site (www.matrox.com/mga).Installation ProcedureFirst, Install the card into the computer by following instructions in the Hardware Installation section on page 7. Then, install its software by following instructions in the Software Installation section on page 9.T55D.book  Page 6  Wednesday, July 29, 1998  11:40 PM
7ENGLISHHardware Installation1. Switch to the standard VGA display driverIf you're running Windows 95/98 on your computer, this step isn't necessary. If you're using another operating system (for example, Windows NT 4.0), see its documentation for how to switch to VGA mode.2. Open your computer and remove your existing graphics cardTurn off your computer and all peripherals such as your monitor or printer. Open the computer and remove your existing graphics card. (If you have a display adapter built into your computer's motherboard, it should automatically disable itself after your graphics card is installed.)3. Choose an expansion slot Most computers have different types of expansion slots. Choose an AGP or PCI slot, depending on the type of Matrox graphics card you have. Your system manual should identify the location of each type of expansion slot in your computer.Inserting your Matrox card into the wrong type of slot could damage your card, your computer, or both.If you have an AGP card, don't insert the plastic tab next to the connector pins (see picture) into the slot.4. Insert your graphics cardRemove the cover for the slot you intend to use. Save the screw for the mounting bracket. Position your graphics card over the expansion slot you've chosen. Push the card in firmly and evenly until it's fully seated in the slot. Replace the screw to secure the bracket of your Matrox card to the computer frame.AGP slotPCI slotISA slot(Back of computer)AGP cardPCI cardPlastic tabExpansion slotGraphics cardMotherboardBracket screwStatic electricity can severely damage electronic parts. Take these precautions:•Before touching any electronic parts, drain the static electricity from your body. You can do this by touching the metal frame of your computer.•Don't remove a card from the anti-static container it was shipped in until you're ready to install it. When you remove a card from your computer, place it back in its container.•When handling a card, hold it by its edges, and avoid touching its circuitry.T55D.book  Page 7  Wednesday, July 29, 1998  11:40 PM

The term “Machine” means an IBM machine, its features, conversions, upgrades, elements, or accessories, or any combination of them. Unless IBM specifies otherwise, the following warranties apply only in the country where you acquire the Machine. If you have any questions, contact IBM or your reseller.Production StatusEach Machine is manufactured from new parts, or new and serviceable used parts (which perform like new parts). In some cases, the Machine may not be new and may have been previously installed. Regardless of the Machine’s production status, IBM’s warranty terms apply.The IBM Warranty for MachinesIBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM’s Official Published Specifications. The warranty period for a Machine is a specified, fixed period commencing on its Date of Installation. The date on your receipt is the Date of Installation, unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise.During the warranty period IBM or your reseller, if authorized by IBM, will provide warranty service under the type of service designated for the Machine and will manage and install engineering changes that apply to the Machine.For IBM or your reseller to provide warranty service for a feature, conversion, or upgrade, IBM or your reseller may require that the Machine on which it is installed be 1) for certain Machines, the designated, serial-numbered Machine and 2) at an engineering-change level compatible with the feature, conversion, or upgrade. Many of these transactions involve the removal of parts and their return to IBM. You represent that all removed parts are genuine and unaltered. A part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty service status of the replaced part.If a Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, IBM or your reseller will repair it or replace it with one that is at least functionally equivalent, without charge. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order. If IBM or your reseller is unable to repair or replace the Machine, you may return it to your place of purchase and your money will be refunded.If you transfer a Machine to another user, warranty service is available to that user for the remainder of the warranty period. You should give your proof of purchase and this Statement to that user. However, for Machines which have a life-time warranty, this warranty is not transferable.Warranty ServiceTo obtain warranty service for the Machine, you should contact your reseller or call IBM. In the United States, call IBM at 1-800-772-2227. In Canada, call IBM at 1-800-565-3344. You may be required to present proof of purchase.IBM or your reseller will provide certain types of repair and exchange service, either at your location or at IBM’s or your reseller’s service center, to restore a Machine to good working order.Machine: IBM 9513 LCD Color MonitorsWarranty Period*:  years•Elements and accessories are warranted for Contact your place of purchase for warranty service informationT55D.book  Page III  Wednesday, July 29, 1998  11:40 PM
