Overview

Dell Display Manager is a Windows application used to manage a monitor

or a group of monitors. It allows manual adjustment of the displayed image,

assignment of automatic settings, energy management, window organization,

image rotation, and other features on select Dell monitors. Once installed, Dell

display manager runs each time the computer starts and its icon is placed in

the notiﬁcation tray. Information about monitors connected to the computer is

displayed when you hover the mouse pointer over the notiﬁcation tray icon.

Using the Quick Settings Dialog | 5

Using the Quick Settings Dialog

Clicking Dell Display Manager’s notiﬁcation tray icon opens the Quick Settings

dialog box. When more than one supported Dell model is connected to the

system, a speciﬁc target monitor can be selected using the menu provided.

The Quick Settings dialog box allows convenient adjustment of the monitor’s

brightness and contrast levels. You can manually select a preset mode

or enable automatic selection of a preset mode depending on the active

application.

The Quick Settings dialog box also provides access to Dell display manager’s

advanced user interface, which is used to adjust basic functions, conﬁgure Auto

Mode, and access other features.

6| Setting Basic Display Functions

Setting Basic Display Functions

A preset mode for the selected monitor can be manually applied using the

menu on the Basic tab. Alternatively, Auto Mode can be enabled. Auto Mode

causes your preferred preset mode to be applied automatically when speciﬁc

applications are active. A message momentarily appears on the screen showing

the selected preset mode.

The selected monitor’s brightness and contrast can also be directly adjusted

from the Basic tab.

Assigning Preset Modes to Applications | 7

Assigning Preset Modes to Applications

The Auto Mode tab allows you to associate a speciﬁc preset mode with a

speciﬁc application, and apply it automatically. When Auto Mode is enabled,

Dell Display Manager automatically switches to the corresponding preset mode

whenever the associated application is activated. The preset mode assigned to

a particular application may be the same on each connected monitor, or it can

vary from one monitor to the next.

Dell Display Manager is pre-conﬁgured for many popular applications. To add

a new application to the assignment list, simply drag the application from the

desktop, Windows Start Menu, or elsewhere, and drop it onto the current list.

NOTE: Preset mode assignments targeting batch ﬁles, scripts, and

loaders, as well as non-executable ﬁles such as zip archives or packed

ﬁles, are not supported and will be ineective.

8| Applying Energy Conservation Features

Applying Energy Conservation Features

On supported Dell models, an Options tab is available to provide PowerNap

energy conservation options. When the screensaver activates, the monitor’s

Brightness can automatically be set to minimum level or the monitor can be

put to sleep in order to save additional power.
