Introduction

Display Pilot 2 is a software utility that allows for quick accurate tuning of

the display with the ability to easily save and use monitor configurations

that are best suited for you. All adjustments are controlled via software to

eliminate the need to use the monitor on-screen displays (OSD).

Note

• Display Pilot 2 scans and identifies the connected monitor(s) to determine which features are

supported. Available features vary by model and inputs. Therefore, not all controls and features

described in this document may appear in your application.

• Images and menu options in this document are for reference only and may look different according

to different BenQ monitors or the operating system (OS) of your device. The user interface may

subject to change without prior notice.

Getting ready before you start

1. Make sure the connection of computer, monitor, and network is

complete. Use the supplied Thunderbolt™ or USB-C™ cable to connect

your monitor to the computer to ensure software compatibility. You

can connect up to six monitors.

2. Power on the computer and monitor.

3. Make sure the DCC/CI control is enabled from the monitor's OSD

menu. Go to System > Advanced > DCC/CI > ON.

4. If you have more than one monitor connected, set to mirror or extend

the display.

Note

• DCC/CI control via an M series Mac's HDMI port is not supported. Connect your Mac (MacBook or

Mac Mini) with an external monitor via Thunderbolt™ or USB-C™ instead.

• You are recommended to use the original Thunderbolt™ or USB-C™ cable that came with the

monitor. Converters/adapters are not recommended to connect your source device to the monitor,

as the compatibility of the converters/adapters in the market cannot be guaranteed.

1. Visit the local website from www.BenQ.com > Display Pilot 2 to

download the software.

identified monitor is connected, its model name is displayed. If more

than one identified monitor of the same model name is connected, a

suffix is added to the model name. Refer to Setup on page 7 for

the monitor connection and functionality.

If you are prompted that the monitor is not compatible, you can

limited functions.
