Routing and Connecting the Cables Place the monitor in a convenient, well-ventilated location near the computer. ZR2040w Model The cable-restraining bar on the pedestal of the ZR2040w is held in place by four tabs. Figure 2-7 Cable-Restraining Bar To remove the bar, first pull one end of the bar away from the pedestal (1). When it is free, the bar can be removed (2).
Page 18
Do not pull on a cord or cable. When unplugging from the electrical outlet, grasp the cord by the plug. Gather the video cables and replace the cable-restraining bar so as to contain the cables. Figure 2-8 ZR2040w Model Cable Routing Chapter 2 Setting Up the Monitor...
ZR2240w, ZR2440w, and ZR2740w Models Remove the cable routing cover by pulling it straight off the front of the column. Figure 2-9 Cable Routing Cover Before connecting the cables, route them through the cable routing hole in the column (1) and replace the cable routing cover (2).
Connect the desired signal sources. Refer to the drawings in (Rear Components on page 6) to identify the connectors on your monitor. For each one, plug in one end of the appropriate cable. Attach the other end to your computer or other video source. The ZR2440w model supports audio output from the HDMI and DisplayPort inputs.
Also disconnect any USB cables. To protect the panel, lay it face down on a soft, flat surface. Mounting the ZR2040w Panel Remove the four screws holding the panel to the pedestal. To mount the panel, use the four holes surrounding the HP logo on the back of the monitor.
Mounting a Quick-Release Panel The ZR2240w, ZR2440w and ZR2740w support mounting to VESA-compliant hardware in two ways: ● Remove the HP stand and use the 4 VESA mount threaded holes (100 x 100 pattern) that are in the Quick Release 2 recess. Screws of the appropriate length are provided. Figure 2-13 Mounting a VESA Arm ●...

Slide the pedestal out of the recess. Remove four screws holding the mounting plate to the head of the pedestal: Figure 2-15 Removing the Mounting Plate from the Pedestal Remove four screws to separate the mounting plate from its cover: Figure 2-16 Removing the Cover from the Mounting Plate Mounting the Monitor to User-Supplied Support Hardware...
Attach the mounting plate to the wall or swing arm of your choice. Figure 2-17 Installing the Mounting Plate CAUTION: This monitor supports the VESA industry standard 100 mm mounting holes. To attach a third-party mounting solution to the monitor, four 4 mm, 0.7 pitch, and 10 mm long screws are required.
Identifying information is located on the pull-out card (instead of on labels on the back of the monitor). Warranty support information (model number, serial number, product number) is printed on the front of the card and regulatory information is printed on the back of the card. Installing a Cable Lock You can secure the monitor to a fixed object with an optional cable lock available from HP.
Adjusting the Monitor Tilt the monitor's panel forward or backward to set it to a comfortable eye level. Figure 2-20 Adjusting the Tilt If your monitor has the ability to swivel, adjust it to the left or right for the best viewing angle. Figure 2-21 Adjusting the Viewing Angle (Select Models) Models ZR2240w, ZR2440w, and ZR2740w provide for height adjustment.
