The Advanced No Touch Auto Adjust function is able to
recognize new signals even when neither the resolution nor the
refresh rate has changed. If several PCs are connected to the
monitor, and each transmit very similar (or even the same) signals in terms of resolution and refresh rates, the monitor recognizes that there is a new signal and automatically optimizes the
picture without the need for any action on the part of the user.
OFF: A-NTAA is disabled.
ON: If a change in signal is detected A-NTAA will adjust the
monitor to the optimal settings for the new signal. If no change
in the signal is detected then A-NTAA does not activate. The
screen will be blank while the monitor optimizes the signal.
OPTION: Functions the same as ON, except that the screen
does not go blank when the monitor makes adjustments for
changes in signal, allowing the monitor to display the new signal faster. When using an external switching device to connect
2 or more PCs to the monitor,using either the ON or OPTION
setting is suitable.

Using the Auto Brightness function
The brightness of the LCD screen can be set to increase or decrease depending on the
amount of ambient light within the room. If the room is bright, the monitor becomes
correspondingly bright. If the room is dim, then the monitor will dim accordingly. The
purpose of this function is to make the viewing experience more comfortable to the eye
in a variety of lighting conditions.
NOTE: The Auto Brightness function is set to OFF by default.
When “AUTO LUMINANCE” is ON, this function is disabled.
SETUP
Use the following procedure to determine the Brightness Range that the monitor will use
when the Auto Brightness function is activated.
1. Set the BRIGHT level. This is the brightness
level that the monitor will go up to when the
ambient light level is highest. Make sure the
room is at its brightest when setting this level.
Select “1” in the AUTO BRIGHTNESS menu
(Figure 1).
Then use the front buttons to move the cursor
up to the BRIGHTNESS setting. Choose the
desired brightness level (Figure 2).
2. Set the DARK level. This is the level of
brightness that the monitor will go down to
when the ambient light level is low. Make
sure the room is at its darkest when setting
this level.
Then use the front buttons to move the cursor
up to the BRIGHTNESS setting. Choose the
desired brightness level (Figure 3).
