The following tips may help you optimize your display:
Adjust your computer's graphic card so that it outputs a video signal of 1280 x 1024 @ 60Hz to the VG175. (Look for instructions on changing the refresh rate in your graphic card's user guide.) Then, use Auto Sync to size and center the screen image.
If necessary, make small adjustments using the Fine Tune control.
Adjust the Smoothing control so that the screen image looks focused, crisp,
and sharp when using a resolution other than 1280 x 1024.

Make sure A/C power cord is securely connected to the DC power supply and
®
the power supply is firmly connected to the ViewPanel
.
Plug another electrical device (like a radio) into the power outlet to verify that the outlet is supplying proper voltage.
Power on but no screen image
Make sure the video cable supplied with the ViewPanel 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 ViewPanel, tightly secure it to the ViewPanel. The ViewPanel comes with a 15 pin mini D-sub signal cable.
Adjust brightness and contrast.
®
If you are using an Macintosh
older than G3, you need a Macintosh adapter.
