SPECIAL NOTES ON LCD MONITORS
The following symptoms are normal with LCD monitor and do not indicate a
problem.
NOTES
• Due to the nature of the fluorescent light, the screen may flicker during
initial use. Turn off the Power and then turn it on again to make sure the
flicker disappears.
• You may find slightly uneven brightness on the screen depending on the
desktop pattern you use.
• The LCD screen has effective pixels of 99.99% or more. It may include
blemishes of 0.01% or less such as a missing pixel or a pixel lit all of the
time.
• Due to the nature of the LCD screen, an afterimage of the previous screen
may remain after switching the image, when the same image is displayed
for hours. In this case, the screen is recovered slowly by changing the
image or turning off the Power for hours.
• The life of the fluorescent light used in the LCD monitor is approximately
20,000 hours. Contact your dealer or service center for replacement when
the screen is dark, flickering or not lighting up. Never attempt to replace it
by yourself.

to less than 5W. The screen becomes dark, and the power indicator turns
to orange. From Active-off Mode, the screen reappears instantaneously
when the keyboard or the mouse is touched again.

FEATURES
Green monitor
• The monitor has a screen saver function that conforms to the VESA
standard. This feature will only work if your PC is a green PC. This feature
is similar to a screen saver, except that your monitor will turn it off instead
of activating the screen saver.
To activate this feature in Windows® 98/2000/ME:
In Windows® 98/2000/ME, this feature can be activated and customized under
the screen saver setting of the display properties.
1. Right click on the desktop and choose Properties.
2. Click on the tab that says Screen Saver. If your system supports Green
PC, there will be a section entitled “Energy Saving Features of Monitor.” If
there isn’t a section like that, then your PC does not support Green
Monitor. The monitor will behave just like a normal monitor, so you will
have to turn it off manually to save energy.
3. In the “Energy Saving Features of Monitor” sections are two boxes,
Power on and Shut off. To activate either one, click the box next to each
one.
4. You can specify the amount of inactive time before your monitor enters
shuts off mode.

PLUG AND PLAY
Plug & Play DDC1/2B Feature
This monitor is equipped with VESA DDC1/2B capabilities according to the
VESA DDC STANDARD. It allows the monitor to inform the host system of its
identity and, depending on the level of DDC used, communicate additional
information about its display capabilities. The communication channel is
defined in two levels, DDC1 and DDC2B.
The DDC1 is a unidirectional data channel from the display to the host that
continuously transmits EDID information. The DDC2B is a bidirectional data
channel based on the I²C protocol. The host can request EDID information
over the DDC2B channel.
THIS MONITOR WILL APPEAR TO BE NON-FUNCTIONAL IF THERE IS
NO VIDEO INPUT SIGNAL. IN ORDER FOR THIS MONITOR TO OPERATE
PROPERLY, THERE MUST BE A VIDEO INPUT SIGNAL.
This monitor meets the Green Monitor standards as set by the Video
Electronics Standards Association (VESA) and/or the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and The Swedish Confederation
Employees (NUTEK). This feature is designed to conserve electrical energy
by reducing power consumption when there is no video-input signal present.
When there is no video input signal this monitor, following a time-out period,
will automatically switch to an OFF mode. This reduces the monitor's internal
power supply consumption. After the video input signal is restored, full power
is restored and the display is automatically redrawn. The appearance is similar
to a "Screen Saver" feature except the display is completely off. The display
is restored by pressing a key on the keyboard, or clicking the mouse.
