TIPS

• Using this monitor’s screen-size switching or dual-screen display functions to compress or expand the screen for commercial

or public viewing in establishments like cafes or hotels may infringe on the rights of the creators, as protected by Copyright Law, so please be careful.

• When ENLARGE is set, the screen size is xed to WIDE mode.

• When dual-screen display is selected, the screen size cannot be changed.

• The appearance of the original video may change if you select a screen size with a different aspect ratio than the original

image (e.g. TV broadcast or video input from external equipment).

• When an ordinary non-wide image (4:3) is viewed with the whole screen using the screen-size switching function of this

monitor, the edge of the image may be lost or appear distorted. If you wish to respect the creator’s intentions, set the screen size to NORMAL.

• When playing commercial software, parts of the image (like subtitles) may be cropped. In this case select the optimal screen

size using the screen-size switching function of this monitor. With some software, there may be noise or distortion at the edges of the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the software, and is not a malfunction.

• Depending on the original image size, black bands may remain at the edges of the screen.

spaces (“ (“ Wrong : VOLM30 Right : VOLM 30

When inputting a negative value, specify a numerical value in 3 digits.

Example: AUTR-009

Do not use spaces for MPOS. Specify parameters using 6 numerical characters.

Example: MPOS010097

If a command has “R” listed for “Direction” in the “RS-232C command table” on page 14, the current value can be returned by using “?” as the parameter.

• After OK or ERR is returned, you must send the following

commands.

To set a timeout for the command response, specify 10

seconds or longer.

• Provide an interval of 100 ms or more between the
