The LCD Monitor is capable of displaying most standards, from 640 x 400 VGA to 1280 x 1024 SXGA. The digital controls located on the front panel allows the user to easily adjust the Monitor's display parameters, and the LCD Monitor's small footprint allows you more room in your workspace for other peripherals. Lightweight and compact, the LCD Monitor is the perfect solution for users on the go. You can use the LCD Monitor for everything from making business presentations to playing computer games. The two stereo speakers allow you to further expand your computer's multimedia capabilities by connecting your computer's Audio out port to the LCD Monitor's Audio in port. The Monitor also has a wall-mountable stand for added convenience. The architecture of the LCD Monitor incorporates an LCD panel that produces a clear display with low radiation emission. And with its low power consumption, the LCD Monitor helps you reduce your power bill. Unpacking Before you unpack your LCD Monitor, prepare a suitable workspace for your LCD Monitor and computer. You need a stable, level and clean surface near a wall outlet. Even though the LCD Monitor uses very little power, you should put it in a location which allows sufficient airflow to ensure that the LCD Monitor and your computer do not overheat. Set up your LCD Monitor so that the panel is not facing a window where sunlight often comes in. The glare caused by sunlight reflecting off of the LCD Monitor's screen will make it difficult to use the Monitor for viewing. 1 219-20-990238 X1 Note: Using a computer for an extended period of time with a poor workstation set-up and incorrect working habits can cause health problems. The science of ergonomics studies the relationship between health and a suitable working environment. There is a section on ergonomics at the end of this chapter. For more information on ergonomics, contact your nearest computer bookstore, or local library. The Internet also has information on this and other subjects. After unpacking your LCD Monitor; make sure the following items are included in the box and are in good condition: · · · · · · LCD Monitor Monitor-to-PC Analog signal cable (15-pin) Monitor-to-PC Digital signal cable (24-pin) Mini stereo audio cable AC Adapter Power cord · User's manual If you find that any of these items are missing or appear damaged, contact your dealer immediately. Do not throw away the packing material or shipping carton in case you need to ship or store the LCD Monitor in the future.

Please refer to the next chapter for details. Power Management System The LCD Monitor complies with the VESA DPMS (version 1.0p) power management proposal. The VESA DPMS proposal provides four phases of power-saving modes by detecting the horizontal or vertical sync signal. When the LCD Monitor is in power-saving mode or detects an incorrect timing, the Monitor screen will go blank and the power LED indicator will start to blink. 9 The Display Controls The LCD Monitor's Display Controls This chapter covers the LCD Monitor's On-Screen Display (OSD). Using the OSD, you can adjust the contrast, brightness, display position, display clarity, color temperature, and speaker volume, as well as set OSD parameters. Please read this chapter carefully to get the most out of your LCD Monitor. Adjusting the Monitor's Display The LCD Monitor features an intuitive, menu-driven, On-Screen Display (OSD) that can be accessed any time when your PC is on. If your PC is in power-saving mode or if it is turned off, the OSD will be inaccessible. The OSD makes the adjusting of display settings quick and simple. Take note of the following: Use the Function buttons to access the OSD and scroll through the various OSD items. The Function buttons can also be used at any time to move through a palette of menu items (such as suboptions within an OSD function). With a particular OSD function selected (such as Monitor Control), use the Adjustment buttons to access the suboptions (e.g., H-Position or V-Position under Monitor Control). The Adjustment buttons can also be used at any time to change values for a particular setting, or to exit a suboption. Please refer to Figure 1-1 for the location of the Function and Adjustment options on your LCD Monitor. 10 219-20-990238 X1 OSD Main Menu Function Control button to access the OSD main menu, press the OSD Menu button (the first Function button on your LCD Monitor).

Due to output timing differences among various VGA cards, you may initially experience an unstable or unclear display when a new display mode or new VGA card is selected. This LCD Monitor Supports multiple VGA Modes. Refer to Appendix B for a listing of factory preset modes supported by this LCD Monitor. PROBLEM: Display is Unclear and Unstable To stabilize and clarify your display, follow this procedure in this order: 1. It is best to adjust the display on a screen displaying vertical lines. In Windows, load a wallpaper bitmap that has vertical lines in it (or you can select the Windows shutdown screen). 2. After loading the wallpaper, open the OSD and select the "Clock" function. Press the top (or bottom) Adjustment Control button and continue pressing the button until you see vertical dark and light lines across the screen. 3. When you can see distinct light and dark vertical bands, stop pressing the Adjustment Control button. Now press the opposite (top or bottom) Adjustment Control button. The vertical dark and light bands will decrease in number. Keep pressing the button until the distinct bands disappear and you have a clear display. 4. Next, press the Function Control button to choose the "Phase" function. The Phase will adjust the horizontal display. Press the top (or bottom) Adjustment Control button and you will see horizontal dark and light lines appear. The number of lines increases as you press the button. Now 20 press the bottom (or top) Adjustment Control button until the lines disappear and you have a clear display. PROBLEM: There is no LCD Display If there is no display on the LCD, please perform the following steps: 1. Make sure that the power indicator on the LCD Monitor is lit, all connections are secure, and the system is running on the correct timing. Refer to the Appendix B for information on timing. 2. Turn off the LCD Monitor and then turn it back on again. Press the upper Function Control button (refer to Chapter 2) once and then press either the upper or lower Adjustment Control button several times. If there is still no display, press the other Adjustment Control button several times. 3. If step 2 does not work, connect your PC system to another external CRT. If your PC System functions properly with a CRT Monitor but it does not function with the LCD Monitor, and the LCD Monitor's power LED is blinking, the output timing of the PC's VGA card may be out of the LCD's synchronous range. Please change to an alternate mode listed in Appendix B, or replace the VGA card and repeat steps 1 and 2. 4. If the PC does not function with the CRT monitor as well, check the BIOS to see if there is a dual scan setting under the display mode item. Set the BIOS display mode to Dual Scan or CRT and try again. If there is still no display, then there may be a problem with your system. Contact technical support. 5. If the power LED is not lit, check to see if the AC power connector is securely connected. Verify that the AC adapter LED is lit. If the AC adapter LED is not lit, please contact your dealer for assistance. 21
