3. How to assemble your monitor hardware

If the computer is turned on you must turn it off before continuing.

Do not plug-in or turn-on the power to the monitor until instructed to do so.

1. Attach the monitor base.

Please be careful to prevent damage to the monitor.

Placing the screen surface on an object like a stapler or a mouse will crack the glass or damage the LCD substrate voiding your warranty. Sliding or scraping the monitor around on your desk will scratch or damage the monitor surround and controls.

Protect the monitor and screen by clearing a flat open area on your desk and placing a soft item like the monitor packaging bag on the desk for padding.

Gently lay the screen face down on a flat clean padded surface.

While holding the monitor firmly against the desk, pull the monitor stand arm upwards clear of the monitor.

8 How to assemble your monitor hardware

2. Connect the PC video cable.

Do not use both DVI-D cable and D-Sub cable on the same PC. The only case in which both cables can be used is if they are connected to two different PCs with appropriate video systems.

Connect one end of the DVI-D cable to the monitor

DVI-D socket and the other end to the DVI-D port on your computer. (optional)

The DVI-D format is used for direct digital connection between source video and digital LCD monitors or projectors. The digital video signals produce a superior quality picture than analog video signals.

Connect the plug of the D-Sub cable (at the end without the ferrite filter) to the monitor D-Sub socket. Connect the other plug of the D-Sub cable (at the end with the ferrite filter) to the computer video D-Sub socket.

Tighten all finger screws to prevent the plugs from accidently falling out during use.

3. Connect the power cable to the monitor.

Plug one end of the power cord into the socket labelled

‘POWER IN’ on the rear of the monitor. Do not connect the other end to a power point just yet.

4. Getting the most from your BenQ monitor

To gain the most benefit from your new BenQ color LCD flat screen monitor, you should set the graphics card to the native resolution of 1680 x 1050 at first, and then you may start to install the custom BenQ LCD Monitor driver software as provided on the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM.

The circumstances under which you connect and install your BenQ LCD Monitor will determine which process you need to follow to successfully install the BenQ LCD Monitor driver software.

These circumstances relate to which version of Microsoft Windows you are using, and whether you are connecting the monitor and installing the software onto a new computer (without existing monitor driver software), or whether you are upgrading an existing installation (which already has existing monitor driver software) with a newer monitor.

In either case however, the very next time you turn on your computer (after connecting the monitor to your computer), Windows will automatically recognise the new (or different) hardware, and will launch its Found New Hardware wizard.

Follow the wizard instructions until it asks you to select a monitor model. At that point, click the

Have Disk button, insert the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM and select the appropriate monitor model. Further details and step-by-step instructions for both an automatic (new) or upgrade

(existing) installation follow. See:

To install the monitor on a new computer on page 15

.

To upgrade the monitor on an existing computer on page 16

If you require a User Name and Password to login to your Windows computer, you must be logged on as an Administrator or as a member of the Administrators group in order to install the monitor driver software.

Furthermore, if your computer is connected to a network which has security access requirements, network policy settings may prevent you from installing software on your computer.

14 Getting the most from your BenQ monitor

To install the monitor on a new computer

This instruction details the procedure for selecting and installing the BenQ LCD Monitor driver software on a new computer which has never had a monitor driver installed before. This instruction is only suitable for a computer which has never been used before, and for which the

BenQ LCD Monitor is the first ever monitor to be connected to it.

If you are adding the BenQ LCD Monitor to an existing computer that has already had another monitor connected to it (and has monitor driver software installed), you should not be following these instructions.

You should instead be following the instructions for

To upgrade the monitor on an existing computer on page 16

.

1. Follow the instructions in

How to assemble your monitor hardware on page 8

.

When Windows (2000 or later) starts, it will automatically detect the new monitor and launch the

Found New 222WHardware Wizard. Follow the prompts until it displays the option to Install Hardware Device drivers.

2. Insert the BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM into a CD drive on the computer.

3. Check Search for a suitable driver for my device option, and click Next.

4. Check the option for CD-ROM drives (uncheck all others) and click Next.

5. Look to confirm that the wizard has selected the correct name of your monitor as “BenQ

FP222W” and click Next.

6. Click Finish.

7. Restart the computer.

To upgrade the monitor on an existing computer

This instruction details the procedure for manually updating the existing monitor driver software on your Microsoft Windows computer. It is currently tested as compatible (and recommended only) for Windows 2000 and Windows XP Operating System (OS).

The BenQ LCD Monitor driver for your model may well function perfectly with other versions of

Windows, however, as at the time of writing, BenQ has done no testing of this driver on other versions of

Windows and cannot guarantee its operation on those systems.

Installing monitor driver software involves selecting an appropriate information file (.inf) on the

BenQ LCD Monitor CD-ROM for the particular model monitor you have connected, and letting

Windows install the corresponding driver files from the CD. You need only steer it in the right direction. Windows has an Upgrade Device Driver Wizard to automate the task and guide you through the file selection and installation process.

20 Getting the most from your BenQ monitor

5. How to adjust the screen resolution

Due to the nature of liquid crystal display (LCD) technology, the picture resolution is always fixed.

The best possible picture for your FP222W is achieved with a resolution of 1680 x 1050. This is called “Native Resolution” or maximal resolution – that is, the clearest picture. Lower resolutions are displayed on a full screen through an interpolation circuit. Image blurring across pixel boundaries can occur with the interpolated resolution depending upon the image type and its initial resolution.

To take full advantage of LCD technology you should select the native resolution setting of 1680 x 1050 on your PC screen resolution setting as described below. Be aware that not all PC video cards provide this resolution value. If your doesn't, check with the video card manufacturer's website for an updated driver for your particular model PC video card which supports this resolution. Software video drivers are often updated and available for new hardware video resolutions. If necessary, you may need to replace and update the PC video card hardware to be able to support the native resolution of the monitor.

1. Open Display Properties and select the Settings tab.

You can open Display Properties by right-clicking on the Windows desktop and selecting Properties from the pop-up menu.

2. Use the slider in the ‘Screen area’ section to adjust the screen resolution.

Select the recommended resolution of 1680 x 1050 then click Apply.

If you select some other resolution, be aware that this other resolution is interpolated and may not accurately display the screen image as well as it could do at the native resolution setting.

3. Click OK then Yes.

4. Close the Display Properties window.

How to adjust the screen resolution 21

6. How to adjust the screen refresh rate

You don’t have to choose the highest possible refresh rate on an LCD display, because it is not technically possible for an LCD display to flicker. The best results are obtained by using the factory modes already set in your computer. There is a table with the factory modes in the specification section of this Users Manual:

Supported PC Timings on page 37

You can choose 60 Hertz for the native resolution of 1680 x 1050.

1. Double click the Display icon in Control Panel.

2. From the Display Properties window, select the Settings tab and click the Advanced button.

3. Select the Adapter tab, and select an appropriate refresh rate to match one of the applicable factory modes as listed in the specification table.

4. Click Change, OK, then Yes.

5. Close the Display Properties window.

22 How to adjust the screen refresh rate

7. Picture optimization

The easiest way to obtain an optimal display from an analog (D-Sub) input is to use the i key function. Press the i key to optimize the currently displayed image to the screen.

When you connect a digital video output using a digital (DVI) cable to your monitor, the i key and the Auto

Adjustment function will be disabled, because the monitor will automatically display the best image.

Please ensure that the connected graphic card on your computer is set to the native resolution of the monitor (1680 x 1050) when you use the i key function.

If you wish, you can always adjust the screen geometric settings manually using geometry menu items. To assist you in this endeavour, BenQ has provided a screen test image utility which you can use to check for screen color, grayscale and line gradient display.

1. Run the test program auto.exe from CD-ROM. You could also use any other image, such as the desktop of your operating system. However, we recommend that you use auto.exe. As you run auto.exe, a test pattern displays.

2. Press the i key on the monitor.

3. Press the MENU key to access the monitor On-Screen Display (OSD) menu.

4. Use the t

or u

keys to select DISPLAY and press the ENTER key to enter the menu.

5. If you notice a vertical noise (like a curtain effect-shimmering of vertical lines), press the t or u

keys to select Pixel Clock and press the ENTER key. Then press the t

or u

keys to adjust the monitor until the noise disappears.

6. If you notice a horizontal noise, press the t
