no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Troubleshooting

No power

• Make sure power button (or switch) is ON.

• Make sure A/C power cord is securely connected to the LCD display.

• Plug another electrical device (like a radio) into the power outlet to verify that the outlet is
supplying proper voltage.

Power is ON but no screen image

• Make sure the video cable supplied with the LCD display is tightly secured to the video
output port on the back of the computer. If the other end of the video cable is not attached
permanently to the LCD display, tightly secure it to the LCD display.

• Adjust brightness and contrast.

• If you are using an Macintosh older than G3, you need a Macintosh adapter.

Wrong or abnormal colors

• If any colors (red, green, or blue) are missing, check the video cable to make sure it is
securely connected. Loose or broken pins in the cable connector could cause an improper
connection.

• Connect the LCD display to another computer.

• If you have an older graphics card, contact ViewSonic for a non-DDC adapter.

Control buttons do not work

• Press only one button at a time.
