G
Avoid keeping a fixed image on the TV’s screen for prolonged periods of time. The fixed image may become permanently imprinted on the screen; use a screen saver when possible.
G
Connect the PC to the RGB (PC) or HDMI IN (or HDMI/DVI IN) port of the TV; change the resolu­tion.
G
There may be interference relating to resolution, vertical pattern, contrast or brightness in PC mode. Change the PC mode to another resolution or change the refresh rate to another rate or adjust the brightness and contrast on the menu until the picture is clear. If the refresh rate of the PC graphic card can not be changed, change the PC graphic card or consult the manufacturer of the PC graphic card.
G
The synchronization input waveform for Horizontal and Vertical frequencies are separate.
G
We recommend using 1366x768, 60Hz (32/37LG50
**
)/
1920x1080, 60Hz
(42/47LG50
**
)
for the PC mode, these should
provide the best picture quality.
G
Connect the signal cable from the monitor output port of the PC to the RGB (PC) port of the TV or the signal cable from the HDMI output port of the PC to the HDMI IN (or HDMI/DVI IN) port on the TV.
G

This TV uses a VESA Plug and Play Solution. The TV provides EDID data to the PC system with a DDC protocol. The PC adjusts automatically when using this TV.
G
DDC protocol is preset for RGB (Analog RGB), HDMI (Digital RGB) mode.
G
If required, adjust the settings for Plug and Play functionality.
G
If the graphic card on the PC does not output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, connect only one of either RGB or HDMI IN (or HDMI/DVI IN) to display the PC output on the TV.
G
If the graphic card on the PC does output ana­logue and digital RGB simultaneously, switch the TV to either RGB or HDMI; (the other mode is set to Plug and Play automatically by the TV.)
G
DOS mode may not work depending on the video card if you use a HDMI to DVI cable.
G
If you use too long an RGB[PC] cable, there may be interference on the screen. We recommend using under 5m of cable. This provides the best picture quality.
