1. The monitor you wish to control does not appear on the Power Control Info Grid
- Check the connection of RS232C. (Check if it is properly connected to the Com1 port) - Check the monitors to see if any of the other monitors connected have the same ID. If more than one monitors have the same ID, those monitors are not properly detected by the program due to data conflict. - Check if the monitor Set ID is a number between 0 and 16 . (Adjust using the Display menu) Note : A monitor Set ID must be a value between 0 and 16 .
2. The monitor you wish to control does not appear on the other Control Info Grids
- Check to see if the monitor power is ON. (You can check this in Power Control Info Grid) - Check if you can change the input source of the monitor.
3. The dialogue box appears repeatedly.
- Check to see if the monitor you wish to control is selected.
4. Both On Timer and Off Timer have been set but different time is showing.
- Apply current time to synchronize the monitor clocks.
5. The remote may not function properly when you turn off the remote Function, disconnect the RS-232C cable, or exit
the program in an Irregular manner. Rerun the program and turn the remote function again to Restore normal functions. <Note> This program may malfunction due to problems in communication circuits or interference from electronic appliances nearby. Settings Value display In Multiple Display Mode

Information For Better display Adjust the computer resolution and screen inection rate (refresh rate) on the computer as described below to enjoy the best picture quality. You can have an uneven picture quality on screen if the best picture quality is not provided for TFT-LCD.• Resolution: 1360 x 768 • Vertical frequency (refresh rate): 60 HzTFT LCD panels manufactured by using advanced semiconductor technology with a precision of 1ppm (one millionth) and above is used for this product. But the pixels of RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color seem to be bright sometimes or some of black pixels could be seen. This is not from bad quality and you can use it without any problems.• For example, the number of TFT LCD sub pixels contained in this product are 3,133,440When cleaning the monitor and the panel outside, please apply the recommended small amount of cleaner by using a soft cloth to polish. Do not force the LCD area but rub softly. If excessive force is applied, you may stain it.If you are not satisfied with the picture quality, you can get better quality of picture by performing the "auto adjustment function" in display screen that is appeared as window termination button is pressed. If there's still noise after the automatic adjustment, use the FINE/COARSE adjustment function. When viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time, a residual image or blurriness may appear. Change the mode to energy save or set a screensaver to move the picture when you need to be away from the LCD monitor for an extended period of time. PRODUCT INFORMATION (Image Retention Free) What is Image Retention ?Image retention may not occur when a LCD panel is operated under normal conditions. Normal conditions are defined as continuously changing video patterns. When the LCD panel is operated for a long time with a fixed pattern (over 12 hours), there may be slight difference in voltage between electrodes that work the liquid crystal (LC) in a pixel. The voltage difference between electrodes increases with time, forcing the liquid crystal to lean. When this occurs, the previous image may be seen when the pattern is changed. To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference must be decreased. Safety Instructions Introduction Connections Using the Software Adjusting the LCD monitor Troubleshooting Specifications Information For Better display PRODUCT INFORMATION (Image Retention Free) Appendix
Turn the power off for 4 hours after 20 hours in use
Turn the power off for 2 hours after 12 hours in use
Set the Monitor to power off with the PC display Properties Power Scheme.
Use a Screen saver if possible - Screen saver in one color or a moving image is recommended. Change the Color Information periodically Note
- Use Two different colors Rotate the Color Information with 2 different colors every 30 minutes.
Avoid using a combination of characters and background color with large difference in luminance. Avoid using Grey colors, which can cause Image retention easily. Avoid: Colors with big difference in luminance (Black & White, Grey) Change the characters color periodically
Use Bright colors with little difference in luminance - Cycle : Change the characters color and background color every 30 minutes
All area display Moving image together with Logo periodically. - Cycle: Display moving image together with Logo for 60 seconds after 4 hours in use.
The best way to protect your monitor from Image retention is to turn Power off, or set your PC, or System to operate a Screen Saver program when you are not using it. Also Warranty service will be limited based on instruction guide. Apply the Screen Scroll function on Product

They are divided into Vertical and Horizontal Sync Signals. These signals display normal color images by the set resolution and frequency. Types of Sync Signals Separate This is a scheme of transmitting individual vertical sync signals to the LCD monitor. Composite This is a scheme of combining vertical sync signals into one composite signal and transmitting it to the LCD monitor. The LCD monitor monitors the color signals by separating the composite signal into original color signals. Dot Pitch The image on a LCD monitor is composed of red, green and blue dots. The closer the dots, the higher the resolution. The distance between two dots of the same color is called the 'Dot Pitch'. Unit: mm Vertical Frequency The screen must be redrawn several times per second in order to create and display an image for the user. The frequency of this repetition per second is called the Vertical Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit: Hz Example: If the same light repeats itself 60 times per second, this is regarded as 60 Hz. Horizontal Frequency The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the left edge of the screen horizontally is called the Horizontal Cycle. The inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called Horizontal Frequency. Unit: kHz Interlace and Non-Interlace Methods Showing the horizontal lines of the screen from the top to the bottom sequentially is called the Non-Interlace method while showing odd lines and then even lines in turn is called the Interlace method. The Non-Interlace method is used for the majority of LCD monitor s to ensure a clear image. The Interlace method is the same as that used in TVs. Plug & Play This is a function that provides the best quality screen for the user by allowing the computer and the LCD monitor to exchange information automatically. This LCD monitor follows the international standard VESA DDC for the Plug & Play function. Resolution The number of horizontal and vertical dots used to compose the screen image is called the 'resolution'. This number shows the accuracy of the display. A high resolution is good for performing multiple tasks as more image information can be shown on the screen. Example: If the resolution is 1360 X 768 , this means the screen is composed of 1360 horizontal dots (horizontal resolution) and 768 vertical lines (vertical resolution). Multiple display Control (MDC) A Multiple display Control (MDC) is an application allowing various monitors to be easily and simultaneously operated on a PC. RS-232C, a standard of serial communication, is used for communicating between a PC and a monitor.
