Plug and play capability
You can install the monitor in any Plug and Play-compatible system. The monitor
automatically provides the computer system with its Extended Display

system can configure itself and optimize the monitor settings. Most monitor
installations are automatic, you can select different settings if desired. For more
information about changing the monitor settings, see Operating your monitor.

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 on Dell Monitor Quality and
Pixel Policy, see Dell Support site at www.dell.com/support/monitors.

functioning properly. If your monitor and computer are properly connected but the
monitor screen remains dark, run the monitor self-test by performing the following
steps:
1. Turn on both your computer and the monitor.
2. Disconnect all video cables from the monitor. This way, the computer doesn’t
have to be involved.
3. Turn on the monitor.
If the monitor is working correctly, it detects that there is no signal and one of the
following message appears. While in self-test mode, the power LED remains white.
