LCD Panel

In order to suppress the luminosity change by long-term use and to maintain the stable luminosity, use of a monitor in lower brightness is recommended.

The LCD panel is manufactured using high-precision technology. However, note that the appearance of any missing pixels or lit pixels does not indicate damage to the LCD monitor. Percentage of effective pixels: 99.9994% or higher.

The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed life span. When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker, please contact your dealer.

Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in damage to the screen. There will be prints left on the screen if the pressed image is dark or black. If pressure is repeatedly applied to the screen, it may deteriorate or damage your LCD panel. Leave the screen white to decrease the prints.

Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, such as a pencil or pen as this may result in damage to the panel. Do not attempt to brush with tissues as this may scratch the LCD panel.

When the monitor is cold and brought into a room or the room temperature goes up quickly, dew condensation may occur inside and outside the monitor. In that case, do not turn the monitor on and wait until dew condensation disappears, otherwise it may cause damage to the monitor.

To use the monitor comfortably

An excessively dark or bright screen may affect your eyes. Adjust the brightness of the monitor according to the environmental conditions.

Staring at the monitor for a long time tires your eyes. Take a 10-minute rest every hour.

Chapter 4 Troubleshooting

If a problem still remains after applying the suggested remedies, contact your local dealer.

• No-picture problems See No.1 - No.2.
• Imaging problems See No.3 - No.11.
• Other problems See No.12.

Problems Possible cause and remedy
1. No picture• Power indicator does not light.	• Check whether the power cord is connected correctly. If the problem persists, turn off the monitor, and then turn it on again a few minutes later.
• Power indicator is lighting blue.• Power indicator is lighting orange.	• Check Gain setting. (see page 15)• Operate the mouse or keyboard.
2. The message below appears.• This message appears when no signal is input.	This message appears when the signal is not input correctly even when the monitor functions properly.• The message shown left may appear, because some PCs do not output the signal soon after power-on.• Check whether the PC is turned on.• Check whether the signal cable is connected properly.
• The message below shows that the input signal is out of the specified frequency range. (Such signal frequency is displayed in red.)Example:	• Select an appropriate display mode using the graphics board's utility software. Refer to the manual of the graphics board for details.
3. Display position is incorrect.	• Adjust image position so that it is displayed properly within the display area using the □and□adjustment.• If the problem persists, use the graphics board's utility software if available to change the display position.
4. Vertical bars appear on the screen or a part of the image is 1 ickering.	• Adjust using○frommenu at the Adjustment menu.
5. Whole screen is 1 ickering or blurring.	• Adjust using○.
6. The screen is too bright or too dark.	• Adjust○. (The LCD monitor backlight has a fixed life span. When the screen becomes dark or begins to 1 icker, contact your local dealer.)
7. Afterimages appear. • Use a screen saver or off timer function for a long-time image display.• Afterimages are particular to LCD monitors. Avoid displaying the same image for a long time.
8. Green/red/blue/white dots or defective dots remain on the screen.	This is due to LCD panel characteristics and is not a failure.
9. Interference patterns or 6 ingerprints remain on the screen.	Leave the monitor with a white screen. The symptom may disappear.
10. The Main menu of Adjustment menu does not start.	Check for Adjustment Lock function.
11. The auto-adjustment function does not work correctly.	This function does not work when digital signal is input.This function works correctly when an image is fully displayed over the Windows or Macintosh display area. It does not work properly when an image is displayed only on a part of the screen (DOS prompt window, for example) or when a black background (wallpaper, etc.) is in use.This function does not work correctly with some graphics boards.
12. No audio output*1	Check whetheris set to “0”.Check the settings of the PC and the audio playback software.

5-5 Glossary

Clock

The analog input monitor needs to reproduce a clock of the same frequency as the dot clock of the graphics system in use, when the analog input signal is converted to a digital signal for image display.

This is called clock adjustment. If the clock pulse is not set correctly, some vertical bars appear on the screen.

DVI (Digital Visual Interface)

DVI is a digital interface standard. DVI allows direct transmission of the PC's digital data without loss.

This adopts the TMDS transmission system and DVI connectors. There are two types of DVI connectors. One is a DVI-D connector for digital signal input only. The other is a DVI-I connector for both digital and analog signal inputs.

DVI DMPM (DVI Digital Monitor Power Management)

DVI DMPM is a digital interface power-saving function. The “Monitor ON (operating mode)” and “Active Off (power-saving mode)” are indispensable for DVI DMPM as the monitor’s power mode.

Gain

This is used to adjust each color parameter for red, green and blue. An LCD monitor displays the color by the light passing through the panel color filter. Red, green and blue are the three primary colors. All the colors on the screen are displayed by combining these three colors. The color tone can be changed by adjusting the light intensity (volume) passing through each color's fi liter.

Phase

Phase means the sampling timing to convert the analog input signal to a digital signal. Phase adjustment is made to adjust the timing. It is recommended that phase adjustment be made after the clock is adjusted correctly.

Resolution

The LCD panel consists of numerous pixels of specified size, which are illuminated to form images. The monitor consists of 1280 horizontal pixels and 1024 vertical pixels. At a resolution of 1280 × 1024 , all pixels are illuminated as a full screen (1:1).

sRGB (Standard RGB)

International standard for “color reproduction and color space” among peripheral devices (such as monitors, printers, digital cameras, scanners). sRGB allows Internet users to closely match colors as a simple color matching means for the Internet use.

Temperature

Color temperature is a method to measure the white color tone, generally indicated in degrees Kelvin. The screen becomes reddish at a low temperature, and bluish at a high temperature, like the flame temperature.

5000K: Slightly reddish white

6500K: Warm white like paper white

9300K: Slightly bluish white

TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signaling)

A signal transmission system for digital interface.

VESA DPMS (Video Electronics Standards Association - Display Power Management Signaling)

VESA provides the standardization of signals from PC (graphics board) for power saving of PC monitors. DPMS defines the signal status between PC and monitor.
