Display Data Channel (DDC)

To make installation easier, so long as your system supports the DDC protocol, the monitor 

is able to plug-and-play. The DDC is a communication protocol through which the monitor 

automatically informs the host system about its capabilities; for example, supported 

resolutions and corresponding timing. The monitor supports the DDC2B standard.
