Display modes

i If your computer has previously been used with

a CRT monitor and is currently configured to a display mode outside the range that the Flat Panel monitor can display, you may need to re-attach the CRT monitor temporarily until you have reconfigured the computer, preferably to 1280 x 1024 at 60Hz.

The display mode the monitor uses is controlled by the computer. Therefore, you should refer to your computer documentation for details on how to change display modes.

The image size, position and shape may change when the display mode changes. This is normal and the image can be readjusted using Image setup and the monitor controls.

Unlike CRT monitors, which require a high refresh rate to minimize flicker, TFT technology is inherently flicker-free. If possible, configure your computer for 1280 x 1024 addressability at 60Hz vertical refresh rate.

For the display modes listed below, the screen image has been optimized during manufacture.

Note: VESA timings are as detailed in the VESA “Display Monitor Timing Specification”. Version 1.0, Revision 0.8, Dated 09/17/98.
