The viewing angle can be adjusted from -5°to +25°.(See fig. 1-2) Figure 1-2 Warning: Do not force the LCD Monitor over its maximum viewing angle settings as stated above. Attempting this will result in damaging the Monitor and Monitor stand. Connecting the Display to your Computer 1. Power off your computer. 2. Connect one end of the signal cable to the LCD Monitor's VGA port or DVI port.(See Fig 1-5) 3. Connect the other end of the signal cable to the VGA port or DVI port on your PC. 4. Make sure connections are secure. Figure 1-5 Connecting the AC Power 1. Connect the power cord to the AC adapter. (See Fig. 1-6) 2. Connect the AC adapter's DC output connector to the DC Power Jack of the monitor. 3. Connect the power cord to an AC power source. Figure 1-6 Connecting the Audio Cable 1. Connect the audio cable to the "LINE OUT " jack on your PC's audio card or to the front panel's "AUDIO OUT" jack of your CD ROM drive. (See Fig. 1-7) 2. Connect the other end of the audio cable to the LCD Monitor's "LINE IN" jack. Figure 1-7 2 Optional Mounting Alternatives Detaching LCD Monitor from Its Stand Unscrew screws second. the swivel base support column and pull down the Figure 1-3 Interface for Arm Applications Before installing to mounting device, please refer to Fig.1-3. The rear of this LCD display has four integrated 4 mm, 0.7 pitches threaded nuts, as well as four 5 mm access holes in the plastic covering as illustrated in Figure 1-4. These specifications meet the VESA Flat Panel Monitor Physical Mounting Interface Standard (paragraphs 2.1 and 2.1.3, version 1, dated 13 November 1997). Note :Please using Ø 4mm x 8mm (L) screw for this application. Figure 1-4 Power Management System This LCD Monitor complies with the VESA DPMS (version 1.0) Power Management guidelines. The VESA DPMS provides four power saving modes through detecting a horizontal or vertical sync. signal. When the LCD Monitor is in power saving mode, the monitor screen will be blank and the power LED indicator will light yellow.

Due to the output timing differences among various VGA cards in the market, users may initially experience an unstable or unclear display whenever a new display mode or new VGA card is selected. Attention This LCD Monitor Supports Multiple VGA Modes. Refer to the Standard Timing Table for a listing of modes supported by this LCD Monitor. PROBLEM Picture is unclear and unstable The picture is unclear and unstable, please perform the following steps : 1. Enter PC to "Shut Down Windows" status while you're in MS-Windows environment. 2. Check the screen to see if there's any black vertical stripes appear. If there are, take advantage of the "Clock" function in OSD menu and adjust (by increment or decrement numbers) until those bars disappear. 3. Move to "Phase" function in OSD menu again and adjust the monitor screen to its most clear display. 4. Click "No" on "Shut Down Windows" and back to the normal PC operating environment. PROBLEM There is no picture on LCD Monitor If there's no picture on the LCD Monitor, please perform the following steps: 1. Make sure the power indicator on the LCD Monitor is ON, all connections are secured, and the system is running on the correct timing. Refer to Chapter 3 for information on timing. 2. Turn off the LCD Monitor and then turn it back on again. If there is still no picture, press the Adjustment Control button several times. 3. If step 2 doesn't 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, the output timing of the VGA card may be out of the LCD's synchronous range. Please change to an alternative mode listed in the Standard Timing Table or replace the VGA card, and then repeat steps 1 and 2. PROBLEM There is no picture on LCD Monitor If you have chosen an output timing that is outside of the LCD Monitor's synchronous range (Horizontal: 24 ~ 80 KHz and Vertical: 49 ~ 75 Hz), the OSD will display a "Out of Range" message. Choose a mode that is supported by your LCD Monitor. Also, if the signal cable is not connected to LCD monitor at all or properly, the monitor screen will display a message "No Input Signal". 10
