It allows you to install your monitor in a Plug and Play compatible system without the usual hassles and confusion. Your PC system can easily identify and configure itself for use with your display. This monitor automatically tells the PC system its Extended Display Identification data (EDID) using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols. Setting up Your PC Software (Windows only) The Windows display-settings for a typical computer are shown below. But the actual screens on your PC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your particular video card. On the windows screen, select in the following sequence: Start Settings Control Panel. When the control panel screen appears, click on Display and a display dialog-box will appear. Select the Settings tab in the display dialog-box. The two key variables that apply the PDP-PC interface are "Resolution" and "Colors".
