M170 FPD Monitor Installation Guide

Testing the M170 FPD

Note: The M170 FPD has a power status LED located on the front of the bezel.

After connection, turn on the power switch located on the front bezel. Before you test
your touch monitor, make sure all cables are connected properly and routed through the
cable management system. Be sure to tighten all cable screws.

To test that the monitor is working properly:

1. Turn on your computer.
2. Make sure the video image is displayed. If it is not, turn on your monitor. Ensure the LED is

green – orange indicates power but no signal.

3. Make sure the video image is centered within the screen area. Use the monitor controls to

adjust the image, if necessary. Perform an Auto Config first, then if you wish you can adjust
the horizontal and vertical position, contrast, and brightness to better suit your video card and
your personal preference. Refer to Chapter 3 for more information on using the on-screen
menu to adjust the video display.
