1. Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a NEW ULTRA VGA monitor. One of the most versatile monitors available today, the TC-1428 automatically adjusts its vertical and horizontal scanning frequencies to those of your computer’s graphics adapter or video chip sets. The TC-1428 provides crisp text and vivid color graphic displays when used with NEW ULTRA VGA compatible graphics adapters (see specifications).
2. Precautions
1. To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the monitor. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
DO NOT REMOVE THE TILT/SWIVEL BASE!
2. The input power source:
The TC-1428 is designed to be suitable for low input voltage (100-
125V) and high input voltage (200-240V) areas.
3. The monitor is equipped with a three-pronged grounding plug which will
only fit a grounded power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician.

Low Radiation:
* X-ray radiation: < 100n Gylh * Magnetic field:
Band I (5KHz-2KHz): < 250nT. Band II (2KHz-400KHz): < 25nT.
Tilt and Swivel Operation:
The swivel range is normally limited to a range of 45 degrees to the right or left of the front position (marked by a small molded pip on the top front
bottom of the base).
The tilt range is normally limited at an angle of -5 degrees forwards and +
15 degrees backwards. This allows you to set the screen angle to the
viewing position most comfortable to you. Note: *When this display is operated with the vertical frequency under
55Hz, the image on the screen may flicker.
