SUPER RESOLUTION+ With the picture improvement technology that minimizes the degradation of the picture
quality due to enlargement (e.g. blurred focus or unsharpened edges), the resolution is not
compromised, even when the images are enlarged, which guarantees a clear image.
NOTE
Because this is a function to increase the sharpness of low resolution pictures, it
y
is not recommended to use the function for normal text or for desktop icons. Doing
so may result in unnecessarily high sharpness.
Sharpness Adjusts the sharpness of the screen.
Black Level Sets the offset level (for HDMI only).
yOffset: as a reference for the video signal, this is the darkest color the monitor can
display.
High The screen picture gets brighter.
Low The screen picture gets darker.
Black Stabilizer Black Stabilizer
: You can control the black contrast to have better visibility in dark scenes.
Increasing the Black Stabilizer value brightens the low gray level area on the screen. (You
can easily distinguish objects on dark game screens.)
Reducing the Black Stabilizer value darkens the low gray level area and increases the
dynamic contrast on the screen.

yThis occurs when signals transferred from the PC (video card) are
out of the horizontal or vertical frequency range of the monitor.
Please see the Product Specification section of this manual to set
the appropriate frequency.
yThis is displayed when the signal cable between the PC and the
monitor is missing or disconnected. Check the cable and reconnect.

Does image sticking occur even
when the monitor is turned off?
Screen display is unstable and shaky / Images displayed on the monitor leave shadow trails.
Did you select the appropriate resolution?
yDisplaying a still image for a prolonged time may cause damage to
the screen, resulting in the retention of the image.
yTo extend the lifetime of the monitor, use a screensaver.
yIf the selected resolution is HDMI 1080i 60/50 Hz (interlaced), the
screen may be flickering. Change the resolution to 1080P or the
recommended resolution.
NOTE
yVertical Frequency: In order to display an image, the screen must be refreshed dozens of times per
second like a fluorescent lamp.
The number of times the screen is refreshed per second is called vertical frequency or refresh rate
and is represented by Hz.
yHorizontal Frequency: The time it takes to display one horizontal line is called the horizontal cycle.
The number of horizontal lines displayed in one second can be calculated by dividing one by the
horizontal cycle. This is called horizontal frequency and is represented by kHz.
