7331.0. "(Q) VP535, docking station and PCXBV-KA monitor" by 26022::S_HUTCHINSON (Sam Hutchinson DTN 276-9048) Mon Jan 27 1997 10:34

    I just received an VP 535 notebook, and I intend to use it as my desktop. I
    had a Celebris 590, with a PCXBV-KA 17 inch monitor. This monitor has some 
    of the Energy Star capabilities.
    
    However, when we hooked the monitor up to either the docking station or
    direct to the notebook, we could not get it out of the standby state
    (steady amber on the monitor indicatior). This happened even though we did
    configure the display for the monitor when going off the notebook.
    
    We were able to use a standard 14 inch monitor that had no power
    savings features.
    
    Is there any way I can get this monitor to work with the notebook ? If
    not, what is the recommended 17 inch monitor as an alternative ?
