Precautions

Placement precautions

• Avoid placing the unit in humid or dusty places, or where it will be exposed to excessive heat (direct sunlight, heaters, etc.)

• Do not step on or set anything on the AC power cord. DAMAGE TO THE AC POWER CORD IS A SAFETY RISK AND CAN CAUSE A FIRE.

• Install the unit only on a stable and smooth surface.

• Do not connect the unit to the same AC outlet with appliances that generate large amounts of interference (such as heaters with thermostats, appliances with motors, etc.). It is best to use a completely separate electrical outlet.

• Keep the unit away from water or small objects. If they accidentally enters the unit, unplug the AC power cord immediately. DO NOT PLUG IN THE UNIT AGAIN.

• Never cover the rear ventilators with cloth or something.

Handling precautions

•"WARNING: The AC power cord and cables on this product contains chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling."

• Avoid bending, kinking or damaging the AC power cord.

• Never insert or remove the power cord with wet hands. Also, be sure to hold cord by the plug when removing it from the outlet.

• Do not remove any parts that are held in place with screws. (The unit does not contain any user-serviceable items.)

• Maintain standard room temperature (5˚C to 35˚C, or 41˚F to 95˚F) during use. Do not subject the unit to shock or vibration. Do not move the unit while it is in use.

• A rapid increase in room temperature in cool weather can cause condensation to form inside the unit. If this occurs, wait at least 15 minutes after turning the unit on before attempting to operate it.

This is the function to reduce the monitor's power consumption, when a computer has not been used for long, even when the power to a LCD Monitor is "ON". In order to activate this system, it must be connected and used with a computer that conforms to DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling) Standard of the VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association).

This monitor conforms to DDC2B (Display Data Channel 2B) standard of VESA. (DDC stands for display data channel and is a registered trademark of VESA)

Plug and Play

Power Management System

*This monitor does not correspond to DDC1, so that Plug and Play function will not be

Screen Display

• This monitor conforms to the WXGA mode (1,280 x 768 dots).

• This monitor does not support the computer’s display mode which is larger than

WXGA mode (1,280 x 768 dots). Its display is possible but there is no guarantee.

• Displaying the same screen for an extended period of time may leave a residual image; this does not indicate a broken or defective display. The display will return to normal after the power is turned off and the unit stands for a while. Use of a screen saver is recommended.

• Bright dots (dots that remain lit) or black dots (unlit dots) on the LCD monitor’s display are normal; they do not indicate a broken or defective display.

• When the LCD monitor shows the Composite Video, S-Video etc., it is displayed on a little bit wider screen which compares to a normal television set. Depend on the image, it might be possible to show it on a full screen.

Specifications

Table of Preset Data

Fifteen signal timing patterns indicated in the tables below are preset when the monitor is shipped from the factory. Up to 8 additional timing patterns can also be stored. The timing pattern is automatically determined and displayed according to the synchronous signals of the computer being used. The monitor will use the closest timing pattern for display when a perfectly matched one is not available. The frequencies of No.14 and No.15 in the list below are only recommended.
