How to Tell the Difference Between 2407WFP and 2407WFP-HC?

I'm curious as to how you tell the difference between these monitors if inspecting them in person. 

 

Looking for any help I can get in identifying obvious tags or differences that distinguish the 2407WFP versions from one another. 

 

Does the 2407WFP-HC have an obvious tag on it (back of monitor) that shows the "HC" designation? 

 

I've looked at one 2407 that shows 2407WFPb on the tag.  That one also has "Model Number" on the tag but the text for the model number is written in Chinese.  Does the "b" mean it's the HC version or just another version of the 2407WFP?

 

Or would the manufacture date give a clue?  For instance, th 2407WFPb shows a manufacture date of February 2007. 

 

Or is there also something in the monitor's menu system where the specific model number info can be viewed?

 

Thanks in advance for any help in this.  ;-)

    Ahh, I found this reference in another thread, so I guess if the monitor is actually hooked up I can use the monitor menu to figure it out (and see if the "HC" shows up where the model number is shown at the bottom):

     

    * Press the monitor OSD Menu button
    * Press minus to move to Display Settings
    * Press the monitor OSD Menu button
    * Press minus to move to Display Info
    * Press the monitor OSD Menu button

    Source = DVI-D
    Resolution = 19200x1200 @60Hz
    PIP Status = Off
    Dell 2407WFP

     

    But I still wonder if the "HC" is indicated on a tag on the monitor (or if I have to go into the menu system to know for sure)...?

    Please check the PPID lable on the back just below the power plug. GM504 is 2407WFP-HC, CC302 is 2407WFP.

    I hope this can help you

    Thanks, cliuc2, that helps.  :smileyhappy:

     

    And the info is not in the least bit obscure.  I should have known that without even asking.  :smileytongue:

     

    But really -- thanks.  I do appreciate it.
