2. Introduction
This section contains general service information, please read through carefully. It should be stored for easy
access place for quick reference.
2.1. RoHS (2002/95/EC) Requirements
– Applied to all countries require RoHS.
The RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substance in Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive) is a legal
requirement by EU (European Union) for the global electronics industry which sold in EU and some counties also
require this requirement. Any electrical and electronics products launched in the market after June 2006 should
meet this RoHS requirements. Products launched in the market before June 2006 are not required to compliant
with RoHS parts. If the original parts are not RoHS complaints, the replacement parts can be non ROHS
complaints, but if the original parts are RoHS compliant, the replacement parts MUST be RoHS complaints.
If the product service or maintenance require replacing any parts, please confirming the RoHS requirement before
replace them.
2.2. Safety Notice
1. Make sure your working environment is dry and clean, and meets all government safety requirements.
2. Ensure that other persons are safe while you are servicing the product.
DO NOT perform any action that may cause a hazard to the customer or make the product unsafe.
3. Use proper safety devices to ensure your personal safety.
4. Always use approved tools and test equipment for servicing.
5. Never assume the product’s power is disconnected from the mains power supply. Check that it is disconnected before opening the product’s cabinet.
6. Modules containing electrical components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Follow ESD safety
procedures while handling these parts.
7. Some products contain more than one battery. Do not disassemble any battery, or expose it to high
temperatures such as throwing into fire, or it may explode.
8. Refer to government requirements for battery recycling or disposal.
2.3 .Compliance Statement
Caution: This Optical Storage Product contains a Laser device. Refer to the product specifications and your local
Laser Safety Compliance Requirements.
2.4. General Descriptions
This Service Manual contains general information. There are 3 levels of service:
Level 1: Cosmetic / Appearance / Alignment Service
Level 2: Circuit Board or Standard Parts Replacement
Level 3: Component Repair to Circuit Boards

3.1. Introduction
V223HQ is defined as our new 21.5”W model in ACER V series which will be the ACER project in Qisda. V223HQ
is defined as 21.5”W LCD Monitor supports 1920(H) x 1080(V) resolution with DPMS (Display Power Management
System) and ACER eColor function. There are double input types, D-sub and DVI. V223HQ adopts LGD panel
LM215WF1-TLA1, AUO panel M215HW01. V223HQ has included 1W+1W speaker. V223HQ also support ACM
50000:1.
The features summary is shown as below,
*All panel spec. in Q201 definition depends on the variance of panel source.
*All spec. of monitor need to warm up at least 1hr.
* To test the “Contrast Ratio” and “Luminance” functions, the color status must be “User preset” mode.
* 1. “Contrast Ratio”: Set “brightness” at 100, and “contrast” at 50.
* 2. “Luminance”: Set “brightness” at 100, and “contrast” at 100.

1. Show “Input Not Supported” warning message.
When Vertical Frequency is over 76Hz or under 56Hz, the display is Black and showing “Input Not
Supported” warning message. (Some video timings are except for PAL, 50Hz signals.)
2. If Hf /Vf is set in the range of 31KHz~83KHz and 56Hz ~76Hz (not including some video timing), and Pixel
Clock is set in the range of 25.175MHz~173MHz(DVI and HDMI input port 165MHz for Single-Link), but is
not the above Resolution, then it will display the nearest mode.
3. When digital input 1680x1050@75Hz and 1920x1080@60Hz_CVT, because of TMDS Pixel Clock is
setting in the range of 25MHz~165MHz, the source may use Dual-Link signal to transmit the timing. This
model can only support Single-Link to receive the information of half-of- Dual-Link, the display may be
abnormal.
