INTRODUCTION

This microprocessor-based, digital control 15-in.
color monitor is a high-performance, easy-to-use
product. This monitor uses a mini-neck CRT to
reduce power consumption during normal operation.
It also employs the latest on-screen-menu technology.
The microprocessor capability offers 13 most
commonly used factory-preset VESA timing modes,
and eight modes for the user to adjust to the special
timings that user might prefer.

This manual provides operating, usage, and safety
information for your monitor.

POWER SAVING

The monitor is driven to different power saving states
when it receives control signals from the display

4

controller. This process meets the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) Energy Star requirements
and reduces power consumption.

The monitor works in the following four states
according to the VESA-standard Display Power
Management Signal:

State

ON Normal Green

STANDBY <15W Yellow

SUSPEND <15W Yellow

OFF < 5W Ambe r

The power saving states are sustained until a control
signal has been detected or the keyboard or mouse is
activated. The recovery time from STANDBY/
SUSPEND state to ON state occurs within three
seconds. It usually takes less than 15 seconds from
OFF state back to ON state.

INSTALL THE
MONITOR

• To connect the tilt/swivel base to the monitor,
align hooks with the sockets on the bottom side
of the monitor, and gently push the base towards
the front of the monitor.

• The 15-pin D-shell signal connector on the signal
cable connects easily to the video adapter output
on your computer. Lock both screws on the
connector to ensure a firm connection.

• Turn the computer power switch to ON. Then turn
the monitor power switch to ON by pressing the
switch inward. The green power light-emitting
diode (LED) will light.

• Allow about 30 seconds for the CRT tube to warm
up. Data will display on the screen.

• If your display fails to function properly, refer to
the “Troubleshooting” section in this manual.

POWER CORD

• Check first to make sure that the power cord you
use is the correct type required for your area.

• This monitor has a universal power supply that
allows operation in a 100/120 V ac or 220/240 V
ac voltage area. No user-adjustment is required.

• First connect the power cord into your monitor
power input socket, and then plug the other end
into a 3-pin ac outlet. The power cord can be
connected to a wall outlet or the power output
socket on your computer, depending on the type
of power cord supplied with your monitor.

• For units to be used at 120 V ac:
Use a UL-Listed Cord Set consisting of a
minimum No. 18 AWG, Type SVT or SJT three­conductor that is 4.5 m (15 ft) long and a parallel
blade, grounding-type attachment plug rated 10
A, 125 V.

• For units to be used at 240 V ac (domestic use):
Use a UL-Listed Cord Set consisting of a
minimum No. 18 AWG, Type SVT or SJT three­conductor cord a maximum of 4.5 m (15 ft) long
and a tandem blade, grounding-type attachment
plug rated 10 A, 250 V.

• For units to be used at 220/240 V ac (outside of
the United States):
Use a Cord Set consisting of a mininum No.18
AWG cord and grounding-type attachment plug
rated 15 A, 250 V. The cord set must have the
appropriate safety approvals for the country in
which the equipment will be installed and marked
HAR.
