In troduction

Congratulations for purchasing this high-performance 17-inch color TFT LCD monitor.
This monitor provides flicker-free and color images at optimal resolutions. Through this
user guide, we will introduce to you all the features, functions, and technical specifica­tions of this LCD monitor.

Features

This monitor is an intelligent, microprocessor-based, and ergonomically designed dis­play compatible with most analog RGB (Red, Green, Blue) display standards, including
PS/V, PS/2, optional for Apple Macintosh Centris, Quadra, and Macintos h II family
signals. The LCD monitor is capable of displaying crisp and vibrant color graphics with
VGA , SV GA, XGA,SXGA (non-interlaced), and most Macintosh-compatible color video
cards.

•The monitor is able to properly function even in case of upgraded video cards or
software becaus e of the wide auto-scanning compatibility range.

•The internal microprocessor digitally controls auto-scanning for horizontal scan
frequencies between 31.5 KHz and 91.1 KHz, and for vertical scan frequencies
between 56.3 Hz and 85.0 Hz. In each frequency mode, the microprocessor-based
circuitry allows the monitor to function at the precision of a fixed frequency.

•The resident memory allows for storing factory default settings and additional
user-adjusted parameters.

•The maximum resolution achievable is SXGA (1280 x 1024), best suited for Win
dows applications.

•The compact and sleek cabinet design saves desk space and makes your desk
