3.2 Installing the Video Card and Video Driver 

Before connecting the LCD console, make sure your computer has a video card already installed 

for the monitor. After you connect the drawer, install the video software driver. The video 

driver is supplied by the video card manufacturer and may be found on the CDROM that came 

with your computer. If you need information on installing a video card or video driver, refer to 

the manual that came with your video card. 

3.2.1 Configuring the Display Settings 

After connecting the drawer and turning on your computer, you may need to configure one or 

more of the following display settings: 

z

 

Display mode (also called desktop area or video resolution) 

z

 

Refresh rate (also called vertical scan rate or vertical sync) 

z

 

Color depth (also called color palette or number of colors) 

Each video card has several controls that let you adjust the display settings. However, the 

software and driver for each video card is unique. In most cases, you adjust these settings by 

using a program or utility provided by the manufacturer of the video card. Most video cards use 

the Windows Display Properties control panel to configure the display. To open the Windows 

Display Properties, click the right mouse button in a blank area of the Windows desktop and 

then select Properties. The Settings tab usually lets you change the Color Palette and the 

Desktop Area 

(x by y 

pixel resolution). 

Some video cards integrate additional features into the Windows Display Properties control 

panel to give you an exceptional setup that is flexible and easy to use. For example, the control 

panel may include an Advanced Properties button, an Adjustment tab, or a Refresh tab for 

changing other settings. Other video cards have a separate utility for setting display 

properties. 

Whenever you change the resolution, color, or refresh rate, the image size, position, or shape 

may change. This behavior is normal. You can readjust the image using the monitor on-screen 

controls. For more information on the monitor on-screen controls, refer to Chapter 2. For 

more information on configuring the display settings, refer to the manual that came with your 

video card.
