  • Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor near water.
  • Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage points, which can be harmful or fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.
  • Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to the cord may cause shock or fire.
  • Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable cart, stand or table, as the monitor may fall, causing serious damage to the monitor.
  • Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor outdoors.
  • The inside of the fluorescent 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.
  • If using the cooling fan continuously, it's recommended to wipe holes a minimum of once a month.
  • When installing the remote control batteries;

- Align the batteries according to the (+) and (-) indications inside the case.

- Align the (-) indication of the battery first inside the case.

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.

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 reflections.
  • 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 fixed 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 difficult to see and may produce eye fatigue due to insufficient contrast.

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 fire 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 fingers 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 fingers 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.

1. Behavior at lock modes

Lock Mode Behavior
Button Lock 1. Lock all button 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 “MEN NU’ key of front panel and RCU2. 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 “PO WER” 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 setting4. Will auto AC power-on in power-lock5. 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.
