Due to the nature of LC display technology, the picture resolution is always fixed. The best picture
possible for your T701 is achieved with a resolution of 1280x1024. This is called “Native
Resolution” or maximal resolution - that is, the clearest picture. Lower resolutions are displayed
on a full screen through an interpolation circuit. However flaws do occur with the interpolated
resolution. So if you want to have all the advantages of LCD technology you must use the native
resolution. If you are using Windows 95/98/2000/ME or XP you can change the picture resolution

The easiest way to obtain an optimal display is to use the
control panel and the monitor will adjust automatically.
If you are still not satisfied with the result, you can still adjust the image manually.
1. Run the test program auto.exe from CD-ROM; this is the best way to observe possible changes.
You can also use any other image, such as the desktop of your operating system. However, we recommend that you use auto.exe. As you run auto.exe, a test pattern emerges.

• Modes not listed in the table may not be supported. For an optimal picture, we recommended you
choose a mode listed in the table above.
• There are 22 available modes that are compatible with Windows.
• Image disruption may occur as a result of signal frequency differences from VGA cards which do
not correspond with the usual standard. This is not, however, an error. You may improve this
situation by altering an automatic setting or by manually changing the phase setting and the pixel
frequency from the “Geometry” menu.
• If you switch off the monitor, interference lines can occur on your screen. But do not be
concerned about this, as it is normal.
• To extend the service life of the product, we recommend that you use your computer's power
management function.
