Installation

Unpacking

Before unpacking the LCD Monitor, prepare a suitable workspace for your Monitor and computer. You need a
stable and clean surface near a wall power outlet. Make sure that the LCD Monitor has enough space around it
for sufficient airflow. Though the LCD Monitor uses very little power, some ventilation is needed to ensure that
the Monitor does not become too hot.

After you unpack the LCD Monitor, make sure that the following items were included in the box:

* LCD Monitor * User's Manual

* Monitor-to-PC VGA Cable * Power Cord

* Stereo Jack Audio Cable *

.

1. Connect the power cord to the LCD Monitor.(See Fig. 1-6)

2. Connect the power cord to an AC power source.

Figure 1-6

Connecting the Audio Cable

1.

Connect the audio cable to the “LINE OUT “ jack on your PC's
audio card or to the front panel's “AUDIO OUT” jack of your CD
ROM drive. (See Fig. 1-7)

2. Connect the other end of the audio cable to the LCD Monitor's

" LINE IN " jack.

Setting Up the LCD Monitor

1. Make sure the AC power cord is connected to the LCD Monitor.

2. Turn on the LCD Monitor's power switch, located on the bezel of the monitor.

Power Management System

This LCD Monitor complies with the VESA DPM Power Management guidelines. If you have VESA's DPM™
compliance display card or software installed in your PC, the monitor can automatically reduce its power
consumption when not in use. If input from keyboard, mouse or other input devices is detected by the
computer, the monitor will automatically "wake up". When the LCD Monitor is in power saving mode, the
monitor screen will be blank and the power LED indicator will light yellow.

Troubleshooting

This LCD Monitor has pre-adjusted using factory standard VGA timings. Due to the output timing differences among
various VGA cards in the market, users may initially experience an unstable or unclear display whenever a new display
mode or new VGA card is selected.

Attention

This LCD Monitor Supports Multiple VGA Modes.
Refer to the Standard Timing Table for a listing of modes supported by this LCD Monitor.

PROBLEM Picture is unclear and unstable

The picture is unclear and unstable, please perform the following steps:

1. Enter PC to “Shut Down Windows” status while you’re in MS-Windows environment, except Windows XP. In
Windows XP open the specific application where the problems appear.

2. Check the screen to see if there’s any black vertical stripes appear. If there are, take advantage of the “Clock”
function in OSD menu and adjust (by increment or decrement numbers) until those bars disappear.

3. Move to “Phase” function in OSD menu again and adjust the monitor screen to its most clear display.

4. Click “No” on “Shut Down Windows” and back to the normal PC operating environment.

PROBLEM There is no picture on LCD Monitor

If there’s no picture on the LCD Monitor, please perform the following steps:

1. Make sure the power indicator on the LCD Monitor is ON, all connections are secured and the system is
running on the correct timing. Refer to Chapter 3 for information on timing.

2. Turn off the LCD Monitor and then turn it back on again. If there is still no picture, press the 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, the output timing of the VGA card may be
out of the LCD’s synchronous range. Please change to an alternative mode listed in the Standard Timing
Table or replace the VGA card, and then repeat steps 1 and 2.

PROBLEM There is no picture on LCD Monitor

If you have chosen an output timing that is outside of the LCD Monitor’s synchronous range (Horizontal: 30 ~
80 kHz and Vertical: 56 ~ 75 Hz), the OSD will display an “Out of Range” message. Choose a mode that is
supported by your LCD Monitor.

Also, if the signal cable is not connected to LCD monitor at all or properly, the monitor screen will display a
message “No Input Signal”.
