Important Monitor Features

Swapping Function
You can swap the main screen and the sub-screen when the PIP/POP/PBP function is used.

Spectacle Function
The screen center area is close to a 4:3 ratio and the outskirt area is expanded by more than 16:9. Therefore, the different screen ratio is applied for each area. Because most ordinary people concentrate their focus on the screen center, a non-linear ratio increase at the outskirt area is not recognized, which makes it possible to watch 4:3 screen with a wide screen.
However, the spectacle function is useful in watching motion pictures but is not suitable for the PC environment in which you perform graphic or document work.

Sleep Function
When watching AV/DVD/HDTV – The monitor will be automatically turned off after a certain period of time.
Press this button repetitively to select an appropriate time duration.

The vertical frequency or refresh rate is the times of image display per second. The unit is Hz. \* Horizontal frequency: The horizontal interval is the time to display one vertical line. When 1 is divided by the horizontal interval, the number of horizontal lines displayed every second can be tabulated as the horizontal frequency. The unit is kHz.The screen image looks abnormal.
