FCC Compliance Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception (which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on), the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by using
one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
modifications not expressly approved by LG
Electronics Inc. for compliance could void the user's (or your) authority to operate the equipment. Only peripherals (digital input/output devices, terminals, printers, etc.) certified to comply with the Class B limits may be attached to this monitor. Operation with non-certified peripherals is likely to result in interference to radio and TV reception.
Only shielded Signal Cables may be used with this System.
Canadian D. O. C. Notice
This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numerique de la classe B respecte toutes les exigences du
Reglement sur le materiel brouilleur du Canada.

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a high resolution monitor. It will give you high resolution performance and convenient reliable operation in a variety of video operating modes.
Features
The monitor is a 17 inches (15.9 inches viewable ) intelligent, microprocessor based monitor compatible with most analog RGB
(Red, Green,
Apple , Macintosh , Centris , Quadra , and Macintosh II family.
The monitor provides crisp text and vivid color graphics with
VGA, SVGA, XGA, and VESA Ergo modes (non-interlaced), and most Macintosh compatible color video cards when used with the appropriate adaptor. The monitor's wide compatibility makes it possible to upgrade video cards or software without purchasing a new monitor.
Digitally controlled auto-scanning is done with the micro- processor for horizontal scan frequencies between 30 and 70kHz, and vertical scan frequencies between 50 and 160Hz. The microprocessor-based intelligence allows the monitor to operate in each frequency mode with the precision of a fixed frequency monitor.
The microprocessor-based digital controls allow you to adjust conveniently a variety of image controls by using the OSD (On Screen Display).
The monitor has 32 memory locations for display modes, 7 of which are factory preset to popular video modes.
This monitor is capable of producing a maximum horizontal resolution of 1280 dots and a maximum vertical resolution of
1024 lines. It is well suited for CAD work and sophisticated windowing environments.
For greater user health and safety, this monitor complies with the stringent Swedish Nutek MPRII requirements for low radiation emissions.
For low cost of monitor operation, this monitor is certified as meeting the EPA Energy Star requirements, and utilizes the VESA Display Power Management Signalling (DPMS) protocol for power saving during non-use periods.

Connecting the Monitor
On the back of the monitor are two plug-in connections; one for the AC power cord, and the others for the signal cable from the video card.
AC Power Connection
One end of the AC power cord is connected into the AC power connector on the back of the monitor. The other end is plugged into a properly grounded three-prong AC outlet. The monitor's auto-sensing power supply can automatically detect 100-120V AC or 200-240V AC, 50 or 60Hz.
Signal Cable Connection
The connector for the signal cable is located on the back of the monitor. The 15 pin VGA connectors on the back of the monitor allow for a wide variety of video controllers to be connected to the monitor.
Examples of signals that might be sent to the monitor include signals from IBM PC and compatibles, Apple Macintosh, Centris and
Quadra.
The supplied signal cable consists of 15 pin VGA connectors at both ends, suitable for connections to an IBM PC or compatible.
Other generic cables or adapters may be used for connections to your equipment, as long as they meet the compatible signal requirements to activate this monitor (see page A24 for input specifications). For
Apple Macintosh use, a separate plug adapter is needed to change the 15 pin high density (3 row) D-sub VGA connector on the supplied cable to a 15 pin 2 row connector. Examples of typical connections are shown below. Select the connection example that fits your needs.
