CHAPTER 2
INSTALLING THE MONITOR
The monitor is equipped with an auto sensing power supply for
voltage ranges from 110~240VAC, 60/50Hz. Confirm the line
voltage designation on the rear panel of the monitor.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO INSTALL THE

Appendix
Troubleshooting Procedures
This LCD Monitor was pre-adjusted in the factory with standard
VGA timing. Due to output timing differences among various VGA
cards, you may initially experience an unstable or unclear display
when a new display mode or new VGA card is selected.
This LCD Monitor Supports Multiple VGA Modes. Refer to timing table
for a listing of the factory-preset modes supported by this LCD Monitor.
PROBLEM: There is no LCD Display
If there is no display on the LCD, please perform the following steps:
1. Make sure that the power indicator on the LCD Monitor is lit, all
connections are secure, and the system is running on the
correct timing. Refer to the table 1 at page 2 for information
on timing.
2. Turn off the LCD Monitor and then turn it back on again.
Press the upper Function Control button (refer to Chapter 3)
once and then press either the upper or lower Adjustment
Control button several times. If there is still no display, press
the other Adjustment Control button several times.
3. If step 2 doesn’t work, connect your PC system to another
external CRT. If your PC System functions properly with a
CRT Monitor but it does not function with the LCD Monitor, and
the LCD Monitor’s power LED is blinking, the output timing of
the PC’s VGA card may be out of the LCD’s synchronous
range. Please change to an alternate mode listed in table 1
on page 2 or replace the VGA card and re peat steps 1 and 2.
4. If the PC doesn’t function with the CRT monitor neither, check
BIOS to see if there is a dual scan setting under the display
mode item. Set the BIOS display mode to Dual Scan or CRT
and try again. If there is still no display, then there may be a
problem with your system. Contact technical support.

5.
If the power LED is not lit, check to see if the AC power
connector is securely connected. Verify that the AC adapter
LED is lit. If the AC adapter LED is not lit, please contact your
dealer for assistance.
