VRR syncs the screen refresh rate (Hz) with a device’s frame rate to eliminate screen tearing,

stuttering, and input lag for smoother motion by dynamically adjusting display output to match

incoming frames.

You can enable VRR under Gaming mode.

VRR remains static, but depending on the detected signal, the description (in gray) changes as

follows:

● If the signal is VRR from a compatible NVIDIA® graphics card, then AdaptiveSync displays.

● If the signal is VRR from a compatible AMD card, then AMD FreeSync Premium Pro displays.

● If the signal is VRR from an unknown card, then Adaptive-Sync displays.

● If the signal is not VRR, then Normal displays.

Enabling G-SYNC compatibility

The NVIDIA G-SYNC® technology eliminates screen tearing and minimizes display stutter and

input lag. To use this technology, your monitor has AdaptiveSync certification on the USB-C and

DisplayPort video inputs.

NOTE: G-SYNC is not available for HDMI inputs. To enable G-SYNC compatibility with your

monitor, you must have an NVIDIA graphics card, install the NVIDIA Control Panel, and install the G-

SYNC driver.

1. Download the G-SYNC driver from https://www.geforce.com/drivers, and then install it.

2. After the G-SYNC driver is installed, open the NVIDIA Control Panel, navigate to Set up

G-SYNC, and then select your monitor.

3. Be sure that the Enable G-SYNC check box, the G-SYNC Compatible check box, and the

Enable settings for the selected display model check box are selected.

NOTE: The second check box is not displayed if the monitor is G-SYNC certified.

4. Select Apply. Your monitor restarts, and Adaptive-Sync is enabled for your NVIDIA GPU.

Changing the power mode setting

This section describes how to activate performance mode. Certain features on your monitor might

require performance mode to be active.

When in sleep mode, to comply with international power standards, the monitor default setting is

power saver mode.

If your monitor supports performance mode and you need to keep the USB ports enabled when the

monitor is in auto-sleep mode, change the power mode setting from Power Saver to Performance.

To change the power mode setting:

1. Press the center of the OSD controller on the rear of the monitor to open the OSD menu.

2. Select Power, select Power Mode, and then select Performance.

3. Select Back, and then close the OSD.

Using auto-sleep mode

Your monitor has an energy-saving feature called auto-sleep mode, which is a reduced power state.

This section describes how to activate or adjust auto-sleep mode on your monitor.

When auto-sleep mode is enabled, which it is by default, the monitor enters a reduced power state

when the computer signals low-power mode, which it does by the absence of either a horizontal or

vertical sync signal.

Upon entering this reduced power state (auto-sleep mode), the monitor screen is blanked, the

backlight turns off, and the power light turns amber. The monitor draws less than 0.5 W of power

when in this reduced power state. The monitor wakes from auto-sleep mode when the computer

sends an active signal to the monitor, for example, when you activate the mouse or keyboard.

Chapter 3 Using the monitor

To disable auto-sleep mode in the OSD:

1. Press the Menu button to open the OSD, or press the center of the OSD controller to open the

OSD.

2. In the OSD, select Power.

3. Select Auto-Sleep Mode, and then select Off.

Using PiP and PbP

The monitor supports both Picture in Picture (PiP), where one source is overlaid on another, and

Picture by Picture (PbP), where one source is positioned adjacent to another, either horizontally (for

landscape orientation) or vertically (for portrait orientation).

To use PiP or PbP:

1. Connect a secondary input source to the monitor.

2. Press the center of the OSD joystick on the rear of the monitor to open the OSD.

3. In the OSD, select Input, and then select either of the PiP or PbP icons.

The monitor scans the secondary inputs for a valid signal input and uses that input for the PiP or

PbP picture.

4. To change the PiP or PbP input, select the input source to use in the OSD,

5. To change the size of the PiP, select PiP Size in the OSD, and then select the size to use.

6. To adjust the position of the PiP, select PiP Position in the OSD, and then select the position to

use.

Using external lighting

The monitor features an external light to illuminate a desktop or wall and enhance the gaming

experience. You can adjust the color and brightness of the external light or turn it off in the OSD menu

or OMEN Gaming Hub.

To adjust the LED lighting:

1. Press the center of the OSD joystick on the rear of the monitor to open the OSD menu.

2. In the Gaming OSD Quick Settings menu, select Lighting.

3. Select a setting:

● Color Cycle: Slowly fades in and out from one color to another.

● Breathing: Slowly fades in and out on one single color with adjustable speeds: slow,

medium, and fast.

letterboxed areas or split screen usage.

OLED protection 29

Table 3-5 OLED protection options (continued)

Option Description

Pixel Refresh Pixel Refresh reduces temporary image retention. This

runs automatically after 24 hours of usage but can

be run manually at any time. The screen will go

black and the power indicator light will blink during the

duration of the pixel refresh process (approximately 4

minutes). When complete, the monitor will return to

normal operation.

NOTE: During the manual Pixel Refresh process, the

monitor’s power LED will slowly blink.

NOTE: An automatic Pixel Refresh will execute

whenever the monitor enters sleep mode or is powered

The reduced power state is initiated if the monitor detects the absence of either the horizontal sync

signal or the vertical sync signal. Upon detecting the absence of these signals, the monitor screen is

blank, the backlight is turned off, and the power light turns amber. In the reduced power state, the

monitor uses < 0.5 W of power. There is a brief warm-up period before the monitor returns to its

normal operating state.

See Using auto-sleep mode on page 26 for instructions about setting the energy saver mode.

Appendix A Technical specifications

AccessibilityB

HP’s goal is to design, produce, and market products, services, and information that everyone

everywhere can use, either on a standalone basis or with appropriate third-party assistive technology

(AT) devices or applications.

HP and accessibility

Because HP works to weave diversity, inclusion, and work/life into the fabric of the company, it is

reflected in everything HP does. HP strives to create an inclusive environment focused on connecting

people to the power of technology throughout the world.

Finding the technology tools you need

Technology can unleash your human potential. Assistive technology removes barriers and helps you

create independence at home, at work, and in the community. Assistive technology helps increase,

maintain, and improve the functional capabilities of electronic and information technology.

For more information, see Finding the best assistive technology on page 42.

The HP commitment

HP is committed to providing products and services that are accessible for people with disabilities.

This commitment supports the company’s diversity objectives and helps ensure that the benefits of

technology are available to all.

The HP accessibility goal is to design, produce, and market products and services that can be

effectively used by everyone, including people with disabilities, either on a standalone basis or with

appropriate assistive devices.

To achieve that goal, this Accessibility Policy establishes seven key objectives to guide HP actions.

All HP managers and employees are expected to support these objectives and their implementation in

accordance with their roles and responsibilities:

● Raise the level of awareness of accessibility issues within HP, and provide employees with the

training they need to design, produce, market, and deliver accessible products and services.

● Develop accessibility guidelines for products and services, and hold product development groups

accountable for implementing these guidelines where competitively, technically, and economically

feasible.

● Involve people with disabilities in the development of accessibility guidelines and in the design

and testing of products and services.

● Document accessibility features, and make information about HP products and services publicly

available in an accessible form.

● Establish relationships with leading assistive technology and solution providers.

● Support internal and external research and development that improves assistive technology

relevant to HP products and services.

● Support and contribute to industry standards and guidelines for accessibility.

International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP)

IAAP is a not-for-profit association focused on advancing the accessibility profession through

networking, education, and certification. The objective is to help accessibility professionals develop

and advance their careers and to better enable organizations to integrate accessibility into their

products and infrastructure.

As a founding member, HP joined to participate with other organizations to advance the field

of accessibility. This commitment supports HP’s accessibility goal of designing, producing, and

marketing products and services that people with disabilities can effectively use.

IAAP will make the profession strong by globally connecting individuals, students, and

organizations to learn from one another. If you are interested in learning more, go to

http://www.accessibilityassociation.org to join the online community, sign up for newsletters, and learn

about membership options.

Finding the best assistive technology

Everyone, including people with disabilities or age-related limitations, should be able to communicate,

express themselves, and connect with the world using technology. HP is committed to increasing

accessibility awareness within HP and with our customers and partners.

Whether it’s large fonts that are easy on the eyes, voice recognition that lets you give your hands a

rest, or any other assistive technology (AT) to help with your specific situation—a variety of assistive

technologies make HP products easier to use. How do you choose?

Assessing your needs

Technology can unleash your potential. AT removes barriers and helps you create independence

at home, at work, and in the community. AT helps increase, maintain, and improve the functional

capabilities of electronic and information technology.

You can choose from many AT products. Your AT assessment should allow you to evaluate several

products, answer your questions, and facilitate your selection of the best solution for your situation.

You will find that professionals qualified to do AT assessments come from many fields, including those

licensed or certified in physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech/language pathology, and other

areas of expertise. Others, while not certified or licensed, can also provide evaluation information.

You will want to ask about the individual’s experience, expertise, and fees to determine if they are

appropriate for your needs.

Standards and legislation

Countries worldwide are enacting regulations to improve access to products and services for persons

with disabilities. These regulations are historically applicable to telecommunications products and

services, PCs and printers with certain communications and video playback features, their associated

user documentation, and their customer support.

Standards

The US Access Board created Section 508 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) standards to

address access to information and communication technology (ICT) for people with physical, sensory,

or cognitive disabilities.

The standards contain technical criteria specific to various types of technologies, as well as

performance-based requirements which focus on functional capabilities of covered products. Specific

criteria cover software applications and operating systems, web-based information and applications,

computers, telecommunications products, video and multimedia, and self-contained closed products.

Mandate 376 – EN 301 549

The European Union created the EN 301 549 standard within Mandate 376 as an online toolkit for

public procurement of ICT products. The standard specifies the accessibility requirements applicable

to ICT products and services, with a description of the test procedures and evaluation methodology

for each requirement.

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) from the W3C’s Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI)

helps web designers and developers create sites that better meet the needs of people with disabilities

or age-related limitations.

WCAG advances accessibility across the full range of web content (text, images, audio, and video)

and web applications. WCAG can be precisely tested, is easy to understand and use, and allows web

developers flexibility for innovation. WCAG 2.0 has also been approved as ISO/IEC 40500:2012.

WCAG specifically addresses barriers to accessing the web experienced by people with visual,

auditory, physical, cognitive, and neurological disabilities, and by older web users with accessibility

needs. WCAG 2.0 provides characteristics of accessible content:

● Perceivable (for instance, by addressing text alternatives for images, captions for audio,

adaptability of presentation, and color contrast)

● Operable (by addressing keyboard access, color contrast, timing of input, seizure avoidance, and

navigability)

● Understandable (by addressing readability, predictability, and input assistance)

● Robust (for instance, by addressing compatibility with assistive technologies)

Legislation and regulations

Accessibility of IT and information has become an area of increasing legislative importance.

Appendix B Accessibility

The HP policy landscape website provides information about key legislation, regulations, and

standards in the following locations:

● United States

● Canada
