How do I get to information on my particular IBM Monitor or Terminal?
Applicable to: World-Wide
The products in the Monitors brand follow the same Brand, Product Family, Machine Type, and Model hierarchy as the system units. However, due to the unique nature of some Monitor products, the scheme used for the Product Family, Machine Type, and Model are a little different from the system units - - this may prove to be confusing for some database users. To help understand how to navigate through the site to find information on your specific Monitor, the information below is being provided. It defines the Product Families and generally explains what Monitors can be found under each Product Family. On this site, the information on the Monitor's bezel is used to help you identify the Product Family that your monitor falls under; therefore, it is important that you understand what a Monitor bezel is:
|
|
The Monitor bezel is the frame of the monitor that surrounds the screen; similar to a picture frame. |
|
Product Family |
Types of Monitors that can be found under this Product Family and how they are identified. |

These IBM Monitors are easily distinguished by their flat design. |
|
