16  About your monitor

Plug and play capability
You can install the monitor in any Plug and Play-compatible system. The monitor automatically provides the computer with its Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols so the computer can configure itself and optimize the monitor settings. Most monitor installations are automatic, you can select different settings as required. For more information about changing the monitor settings, see Operating your monitor.
LCD monitor quality and pixel policy
During the LCD Monitor manufacturing process, it is normal for one or more pixels to become fixed in an unchanging state, which are hard to see and do not affect the display quality or usability. For more information about Dell Monitor Quality and Pixel Policy, see Dell Support site at www.dell.com/pixelguidelines.
