It also refers to the organization that has been organized to promote its development and management. Electronic Industries Association of Japan. DVI is the acronym for Digital Video Interface. It is a new type of video interface technology that provides the maximum screen quality for high quality display devices and high-end graphics cards including flat panel LCD monitors. This is an interface that connects both quality video signals and digital audio signals with a cable without any compression. HD (High Definition) In HD, 1080-line, 2x density beaming (1080i) is used. HD provides a five times clearer screen quality than the existing analog method and has a wide 16:9 aspect ratio. SD (Standard Definition) In HD, 480-line, double beaming (480i) is used. SD provides a screen quality somewhere between HD and the existing analog method. It exhibits a two times better screen quality than analog TV.

Troubleshooting

Self-Test Feature Check
Note Your monitor provides a self test feature that allows you to check whether your monitor is functioning properly.
1. 2. 3. Turn off both your computer and the monitor. Unplug the video cable from the back of the computer. Turn on the monitor. If the monitor is functioning properly, you will see a box in the illustration below.
This box appears during normal operation if the video cable becomes disconnected or damaged. 4. Turn off your monitor and reconnect the video cable; then turn on both your computer and the monitor.
If your monitor screen remains blank after using the previous procedure, check your video controller and computer system; your monitor is functioning properly.

Warning Messages

If there is something wrong with the input signal, a message appears on the screen or the screen goes blank although the power indicator LED is still on. The message may indicate that the monitor is out of scan range or that you need to check the signal cable.

Environment

In most cases, the monitor installation will proceed automatically, unless the user wishes to select alternate settings. Dot Acceptable TFT-LCD panels manufactured by using advanced semiconductor technology with precision of 1ppm (one millionth) above are used for this product. But the pixels of RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color appear to be bright sometimes or some black pixels may be seen. This is not from bad quality and you can use it without any problems.

(Class B equipment emits less electromagnetic waves than Class A equipment.)

This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. This system saves energy by switching your monitor to low-power mode when it has not been used for a certain amount of time. The monitor automatically returns to normal operation when you press a key on the keyboard. For energy conservation, turn your monitor OFF when it is not needed, or when leaving it unattended for 60
Specifications long periods. The PowerSaver system operates with a VESA DPM compliant video card installed in your computer. Use the software utility installed on your computer to set up this feature.

Horizontal Frequency The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the left edge of the screen horizontally is called the Horizontal Cycle and the inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called the Horizontal Frequency. Unit: kHz Vertical Frequency Like a fluorescent lamp, the screen has to repeat the same image many times per second to display an image to the user. The frequency of this repetition is called the Vertical Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit: Hz

For Better Display

Adjust the computer resolution and screen injection rate (refresh rate) on the computer as described below to enjoy the best picture quality. You can have an uneven picture quality on screen if the best picture quality is not provided for TFT-LCD. Resolution: 1280 x 1024 Vertical frequency (refresh rate): 60 Hz

When cleaning the monitor and the panel outside, please apply the recommended small amount of cleaner by using a soft cloth to polish. Do not force the LCD area but rub softly. If excessive force is applied, you may stain it. If you are not satisfied with the picture quality, you can get better quality of picture by performing the "Auto Adjustment function" in display screen that is appeared as window termination button is pressed. If there's still noise after the automatic adjustment, use the Fine/Coarse adjustment function. When viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time, a residual image or blurriness may appear. Change the mode to energy save or set a screensaver to move the picture when you need to be away from the monitor for an extended period of time.

Recommended settings: Bright colors with little difference in luminance Change the characters color and background color every 30 minutes

Information Ex)

Every 30 minutes, change the characters with movement. Ex)
The best way to protect your monitor from Image retention is to set your PC or System to operate a Screen Saver program when you are not using it. Image retention may not occur when a LCD panel is operated under normal conditions. Normal conditions are defined as continuously changing video patterns. When the LCD panel is operated for a long time with a fixed pattern (-over 12 hours-), there may be slight difference in voltage between electrodes that work the liquid crystal (LC) in a pixel. The voltage difference between electrodes increases with time, forcing the liquid crystal to lean. When this occurs, the previous image may be seen when the pattern is changed. To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference must be decreased.
Our LCD Monitor satisfies ISO13406-2 Pixel fault Class II
