16 Plasma Monitor

Installation

How to connect

1. To get the best picture quality, adjust the PC
graphics card to a 1600x1200, 60Hz.

2. Use the monitor’s RGB INPUT or HDMI1 port for
video connections, depending on your PC connec­tor.

If the graphic card on the PC does not output ana­log and digital RGB simultaneously, connect only
one of either RGB INPUT or HDMI1 INPUT to dis-

play the PC on the monitor.
If the graphic card on the PC does output analog
and digital RGB simultaneously, set the monitor to
either RGB or HDMI1; (the other mode is set to
Plug and Play automatically by the monitor.)

3. Then, make the corresponding audio connections.
If using a sound card, adjust the PC sound as
required.

How to use

1. Turn on the PC and the monitor.

2. Turn on the display by pressing the POWER button on the monitor's remote control.

3. Use the INPUT button on the remote control to select RGB or HDMI1.

4. Check the image on your monitor. There may be noise associated with the resolution, vertical pattern, contrast or
brightness in PC mode. If noise is present, change the PC mode to another resolution, 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.

NOTES: • Use a HDMI to DVI cable.

• Avoid keeping a fixed image on the monitor's screen for a long period of time. The fixed image may become

permanently imprinted on the screen. Use the Orbiter screen saver when possible.

• The synchronization input form for Horizontal and Vertical frequencies is separate.

- This monitor provides Plug and Play capability, meaning that the PC adjusts automatically to its settings. The monitor sends

configuration information (EDID) to the PC using the Video Electronics Standard Association (VESA) Display Data Channel
(DDC) protocol.

- The monitor perceives 640x480, 60Hz as DTV 480p based on the PC graphic card. In this case, change the screen scanning

rate for the graphic card.
