• Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor outdoors.

• The inside of the uorescent tube located within the LCD monitor contains mercury. Please

follow the laws or rules of your municipality to dispose of the tube properly.

• Do not bend power cord.

• Do not use monitor in high temperature, humid, dusty, or oily areas.

• If monitor or glass is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal and handle with

care.

• Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor, so that heat can properly dissipate. Do not block ventilated openings or place the monitor near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not put anything on top of the monitor.

• The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the system from the power supply. The monitor should be installed close to a power outlet, which is easily accessible.

• Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for transporting.

• Please clean the holes of back cabinet to reject dirt and dust at least once a year because of

set reliability.

CAUTION:

Immediately unplug your monitor from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.

• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the monitor.

• If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.

• If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.

• If the monitor does not operate normally by following operating instructions.

Recommended Use

CAUTION:

• For optimum performance, allow 20 minutes for warm-up.

• Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an object at least 5 feet away. Blink often.

• Position the monitor at a 90° angle to windows and other light sources to minimize glare and reections.

• Clean the LCD monitor surface with a lint-free, nonabrasive cloth. Avoid using any cleaning

solution or glass cleaner!

• Adjust the monitor’s brightness, contrast and sharpness controls to enhance readability.

• Avoid displaying xed patterns on the monitor for long periods of time to avoid image

persistence (after image effects).

• Get regular eye checkups.

Ergonomics

To realize the maximum ergonomic benefits, we recommend the following:

• Use the preset Size and Position controls with standard signals.

• Use the preset Color Setting.

• Use non-interlaced signals.

• Do not use primary color blue on a dark background, as it is difcult to see and may produce eye fatigue due to insufcient contrast.

• The PC text quality is optimum in HD 1080 mode (1920 x 1080, 60Hz).

• Your PC display screen might appear different depending on the manufacturer (and your particular

version of Windows).

• Check your PC instruction book for information about connecting your PC to a display.

• If a vertical and horizontal frequency-select mode exists, select 60Hz (vertical) and 31.5KHz (horizontal).

In some cases, abnormal signals (such as stripes) might appear on the screen when the PC power is turned off (or if the PC is disconnected). If so, press the [SOURCE] button to enter the video mode. Also, make sure that the PC is connected.

• When horizontal synchronous signals seem irregular in RGB mode, check PC power saving mode or

cable connections.

• The display settings table complies with IBM/VESA standards, and based on the analog input.

• The DVI support mode is regarded to be the same as the PC support mode.

• The best vertical frequency timing for each mode is 60Hz.

8. Cleaning and Troubleshooting

8.1. Cleaning

Caution When Using the Display

• Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of the display. The top of the display is usually very hot due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries may occur if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the display could also result in heat related damage to the object as well as the display itself.

• Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the display. Moving the display with its cables attached may damage the cables and thus cause re or electric shock.

• Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution before carrying out any type of

cleaning or maintenance procedure.

Front Panel Cleaning Instructions

• The front of the display has been specially treated. Wipe the surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.

• If the surface becomes dirty, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in a mild detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Wipe the surface of the display to remove dirt. Then use a dry cloth of the same type to dry.

• Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with ngers or hard objects of any kind.

• Do not use volatile substances such as insert sprays, solvents and thinners.

Cabinet Cleaning Instructions

• If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth.

• If the cabinet is extremely dirty, soak a lint-free cloth in a mild detergent solution. Wring the cloth to

remove as much moisture as possible. Wipe the cabinet. Use another dry cloth to wipe over until the surface is dry.

• Do not allow any water or detergent to come into contact with the surface of the display. If water or moisture gets inside the unit, operating problems, electrical and shock hazards may result.

• Do not scratch or hit the cabinet with ngers or hard objects of any kind.

• Do not use volatile substances such as insert sprays, solvents and thinners on the cabinet.

• Do not place anything made from rubber or PVC near the cabinet for any extended periods of time.

Lock Mode Behavior

Button Lock 1. Lock all buttons on the front panel and RCU, except for “Power”

2. All the SET functions should be workable via RS32, even the ones with according hot key in RCU like Mute,…etc.

MENU Lock 1. Lock “MENU’ key of front panel and RCU

2. The Factory and Hospitality modes should not be blocked for the model using MENU-combined key to enter these two modes. Alternative approach will be indicated separately if any limitation by model.

POWER Lock 1. Lock “POWER” key on the front and RCU.

2. The SET_POWER on/off should be workable via RS232, but does not mean the POWER lock will be released under this case.

3. Can not be unlocked by reset in OSD setting

4. Will auto AC power-on in power-lock

5. Under power-lock, the set will not enter power saving when no PC signal and neither not turn off when no other video signals after 15min.

Remote control disable Lock the RCU keys, but keep the front panel buttons workable.

10.3.3. Remote Control Pass-through mode

When the PC sets the TV/DS to Remote Control Pass through mode, the TV/DS will send a 7-byte packet (followed by “CR”) in response to RCU button activation. Note, that in this mode the RCU shall have no effect on the TV/DS function. For example: “Volume+” will not change the volume in the LCD but only sends “Volume+” code to PC over the RS232 port.
