Preset Modes

To reduce the need for adjustment for different modes, the monitor has default setting modes that are most commonly used as given in the table below. For optimum adjustment, the user is suggested to perform the Auto Setup under Windows “Full Screen” pattern. When none of the mode is matched, the user can store their preferred modes in the user modes. The monitor is capable of storing up to 9 user modes. The only condition to store as a user mode is the new display information must have 1 kHz difference for horizontal frequency or 1 Hz for vertical frequency or the sync signal polarities are different from the default modes.

Image PersistenceImage Persistence

Image Persistence

Image PersistenceImage Persistence Image persistence is when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long period of time should be avoided.

To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image was displayed. For example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to erase the image.

NOTE: NOTE:

NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC-Mitsubishi Electronics Display recommends using a moving
