Using Your Gateway Flat-Pan el Monitor
Changing W indow s sc reen set tings
Adjusting the color depth and screen area ar e two of t he most basic display set ting s you ma y need
to change. You ca n also adjust settings such as the screen background and screen saver.
Changing color dept h and sc reen re solution
Color depth is the number of colors your computer uses to display images on your monitor. Most
images look best displayed with the maximum number of colors available. If the color in your
images seems “false” or “jump y,” especially af ter you hav e pla yed a game or run a video-intensive
program, check the color depth setting and return it to the highest color setting, if necessary.
Screen resol uti on is the number of pixels (individual colored dots) your computer uses to display
images on your monitor. The higher the resolution, the more information and screen components
(such as icons and menu bars) can be displayed on the monitor.

Energy declar ation
When connected to a computer that supports the VESA Display Power Management Signaling
(DPMS) Protocol, the monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption
during periods of non-use. When your computer goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor
will then enter the Active Off mode (sleep) . In the ActiveOff mode the Power LED will still show
orange.
Use these conve ntions and the power can be reduced to the following levels:
VESA St ate LED Indicator Power Consumption
On Blue <55 W
Standby Orange <2 W
Off Purple <1 W
To “wake” the monitor when it is in Standby/Active Off mode, move the mouse or press any
keyb oa rd key.
You can change the monitor’s power management settings using the Windows Control Panel. For
more information, see your computer’s User Gu id e.
Maintaining
To keep the monitor in optimal working order:
• Do not block the ventilation holes.
• Do n ot exp ose the mo ni tor to ra in or u se nea r wa ter.
• Keep th e m on ito r away fro m ra dia tor s o r h ea t ve nt s.
• Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight.

Some adjustments may require you to make changes to the Windows System Registry. We
recommend making a comp lete system backup before changing the System Registry.
When you display video from a component video source, the video looks overly compressed.
.
• See your video device’s user manual to adjust the video or TV format output to 16:9. Se tting
this option to 4:3 results in compressed video. This is done differently on all brands of video
devices, so it is important that you read your video device’s user guide or the help tools
within your video device’s software.
You see black bars on left and right of the video.
• Touc h Menu, Video A djust, then touch Video Scali ng. To fill more of the screen,
choose Wide, Zoom, 1:1 (normal), or Panoramic modes.
When you try to use Picture in Picture (PIP) component video at 480p, 720p, or 1080i, either no video is displayed or you see corrupted video.
• This is a normal operation of the monitor. If you want to view component video in PIP, adjust
the video output of your external device to 480i.

You need to know whether you can connect the HDMI output of your external video device to the DV I po rt of t he m onito r.
Important
Although t he HDMI i nt erf ace suppo rts audi o, no audi o is sen t t o the monit or. You must
separately connect the audio output of your video device to an external audio amplifier.
• Yes, you can. When using the digital connection, your vi deo content remains completely
digital from your external video device (such as a cable box, HD DVR, or DVD player). This
results in a superior digital image. Also, in this configuration the PIP can support the input
of all HD resolutions.
Gaming
You need to know whether you can connect your game console to this monitor.
• Y es, y ou can, if y our game console supports HDMI or component video. Us ing optional video
cables, you can connect your game console directly to the monitor. If your game console
supports Component (YPbPr), this results in the best picture quality.
Speake r bar does not work
I installed the speaker bar, but no sound is coming out of the speakers.
• Make sure t hat the speak er ba r powe r cord is plugged into t he speak er bar po we r connect or
under your monitor.
• Check the position of the audio input selection switch on the left side of the speaker bar.
• If you are usin g HDMI as the aud io and video sou rce, make sure that the HDM I cab le is
connected to the HDMI output on the monitor. Also make sure that your HDMI audio source
is set to PCM or Analog audio.

I checked all the connections, but I still do not get any sound.
• Your headphone/speaker jack may have been muted using Windows sound controls. To
check your headphone/speak er mute setti ngs, click the speak er icon in the Windows ta skbar ,
or click (Start), Control Panel, Sounds and Audio Devices, the Volume tab, then click
Advanced. For optimum volume control using the speaker bar, we recommend that you
set the Windows vo lume mid-way between the lowest and highest setting.
I want to plug in my headphones, but there is a headphone jack on both sides of the speaker bar. Which should I use?
• You can use either j ack or bo th jack s at the same t ime.
The sound comin g from the speakers soun ds distorted.
• Turn down the volume until the distortion disappears.
• Check the audio output volume of the sound device the speaker bar is connected to. If the
audio device’s output volume is set too high, the speaker bar’s sound may always be
distorted. To adjust the audio device’s output volume, see the device’s user guide. To adjust
the volume in W ind ows XP, click t he sp eaker icon in the Windows taskbar, or clic k (Start),

I plugged my microphone into the speaker bar’s microphone jack, but my computer cannot record any sound.
• Make sure that the speaker bar’s pink microphone plug is connected t o t he micr ophone jac k

HDCP
Using Your Gateway Flat-Pan el Monitor
What is HDCP and how should you troubleshoot it?
High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a specification developed by the Intel®
Corporation to protect digital entertainment content that uses a digital visual interface (DVI).
HDCP encrypts the transmission of digital content (signal) between the video source (computer,
DVD player, or set-top box) and the digital display (monitor, digital television/DTV, or projector).
HDCP is not designed to prevent copying or recording of digital content, but only to protect the
integrity of the content as transmitted.
You see “noise” or “trash” on the screen.
• When your display’s digital capabilities exceed a digital broadcast signal, the signal is
increased (up-converted) to match the display capabilities. Up-converting can cause “noise”
or “trash.” The signal on DVI-D is HDCP encoded. Stop and restart the source to allow
renegotiation.
How HDCP works.
• Implementation of HDCP requires a license obtainable from the Digital Content Protection,
LLC, which then issues a set of unique secret device keys to all authorized devices. During
authentication, th e receiving device only accepts content after it acknowledges the keys. To
further prevent stealing of the data or line tapping, the transmitter and receiver generate
a shared se cret value tha t is co nstan tly checked throu ghout the trans missio n. After
authentication is established, the transmitter encrypts the data and sends it to the receiver
for de cr y pt io n .
You lose the signal to the display while watching a movie on a HDCP-equipped component.
• The component must be restarted to establish renegotiation.
A movie starts, but then slowly fades to static.
• The receiving device is not HDCP compatible or it is not negotiating correctly. Restart the
How to determine whether a component is HDCP compliant.
• If the video source device does not have a DVI or HDMI connection, it is not HDCP compliant.
DCDi by F aroudja
What is DCDi by Faroudja?
DCDi
It was initially designed for fast-action video-based material. Its general purpose is to reduce
jagged edges along diagonal lines caused by interpolation. Utilizing this algorithm, DCDi does not
simply weave together two fields of video that match. DCDi creates new information through
interpolation which “smoot hs” t he diagonal edges. DCDi constantly monitors edge transitions and
fills in any of the gaps that need smoothing.
For example, while watching a movie on a HDCP-enabled DVD player, you change the
receiving device (DTV, monitor, or projector) input to watch broadcast TV, then change the
input back to watch the DVD movie. However, you are unable to watch the movie. This is
because when the input was changed, the receiver lost the HDCP signal. Restart the
HDCP-enabled DVD player to allow renegotiation.
