FAQs

When I connect a USB cable to EIZO monitors, they indicate "EIZO USB HID Monitor". Is this a problem?

When you connect a USB cable to EIZO monitors, they indicate "EIZO USB HID Monitor" or "EIZO HID Monitor Controls". This means that the monitors support the HID (Human Interface Device) function and the computers correctly recognize the monitors. HID includes the input/output devices such as keyboard and mouse.
