Troubleshooting

No image appears

Is the power cord of the
monitor connected?

Is the power indicator light
on?

Is the power on and the
power indicator green?

Is the power indicator
amber?

Do you see an "OUT OF
FREQUENCY"
message on the screen?

Do you see a"SELF
DIAGNOSTICS" message
on the screen?

• Check and see if the power cord is connected
properly to the power outlet.

• Press the power button.

• Adjust the brightness and the contrast.

• If the monitor is in power saving mode,trying moving the

mouse or pressing any key on the keyboard to bring up
the screen.

• This message appears when the signal from the PC
(video card) is out of horizontal or vertical frequency
range of the monitor.See the'Specification' section of
this manual and configure your monitor again.

• This message appears when the signal cable between
your PC and your monitor is not connected.Check the

signal cable and try again.

The screen is flickering

Is the vertical frequency
less than 70Hz or is your
monitor set to the interlaced
mode?

Do you have any magnetic
material such as adapter,or
high-voltage line near to
your minitor?

Do you hear a "~ding"
sound while the monitor is
flickering?

• Set the vertical frequency to 72Hz or higher,and consult

the video card user manual for instruction on converting
to a non-interlaced mode.
(You can se t this option under the Display icon of the

Control Panel.)

• Remove magnetic sources,such as power
adapetors,speakers,or high-voltage lines,away from the
monitor.

• Use the normal degaussing function.The function clears
the screen and reduces any screen blur that may occur
due to the surrouding magnetic field.The screen may
flicker for about 5 sconds,accompanied by a "~ding"
sound.

Troubleshooting

The screen color is not normal.

Do you see basic
discoloration(16 colors)?

Is the screen color unstable
or monochrome?

Do you hear a "~ding"
sound while the monitor is
flickering?

Do you see a partial blurring
on the screen?

• Set color depth to 256 colors or higher.Use ' Control
Panel'→'Display'→'Settings'→'Color Palette'.

• Check the connection of the signal cable.Or put out the
video card of the PC and insert it again.

• This is due to a small amount of foreign or abnormally

forescent material that became fastend on the mask
during manufacturing.It will not affect product
performance.

• This happens due to interference from surrounding

magnetic fields,as created when speakers,steel
structures,or high-voltage lines are placed near the
monitor.Remove any such materials from the immediate
vicinity and use the DEGAUSS icon on tthe screen
adjustment menu to fix the screen.

I see an after-image on the screen

Do you see the after-image
even when you turn off the
monitor?

• A premature aging of the monitor pixels may cause the
prolonged display of a single image on the screen.Be
sure to use a screen saver to maximize the service life of
the monitor.

I see waves on the screen

Do you see the wave
directly on the screen?

• This occurs in inverse proportion to the screen focus,
which can be caused by a particular frequency or video
card.Brighten the screen and use the 'MOIRE' icon on
the screen adjustment menu to adjust the screen.
