micro-controller first checks the display mode memory stored in the user setting area of the video board, and then the
factory presetting area. It then adjusts to the proper display mode.

ENG

6. Display Modes Memory

The micro-controller has the memory capacity to store different display modes, including timing formats and display­settings. This memory capacity is divided into two parts: the user setting area and the factory presetting area.

User Setting Area

The user setting area on the micro-controller maintains in its memory the last display modes set by the user. You can
change the settings, or add a nonstandar d mode . The micr o-contr oller always det ects and displays the last mode stor ed
in the user setting area first when the monitor is turned on.

Factory Presetting Area

There are some preferred display modes preset in the micro-controller. These display modes are preset at the factory
and include the most popular display modes currently available. The micro-controller searches for a proper display
mode in this area if it fails to find a proper display mode in the user setting area.

7. Signal Connector Pin-outs

To connect VGA, 8514A or IBM-compatible graphics adapters, use a 15 pin mini D-type male connector.

8. Power Saving Feature

When the power saving active them the power indicator LED will be from Green Light to Amber, and power saving
feature complies with these VESA power saving modes:

The monitor uses the H. Sync and V. Sync signals to determine the operation mode to enter.
The monitor power-saving feature aut omatically turns off H. Sync and V. Sync if there is no input from the system for a
certain period of time. To use this fea ture, you need a gr een PC tha t is complian t with the VESA power saving feature or
a software utility to detect system input such as keyboard or mouse.

Time Settings

Time settings are adjusted from the system unit by software. To fulfill the requirements in the NUTEK specification
803299/94 the total time from indicated inactivity to Pow er Saving position A2 (VESA OFF) must not be set more than
