Using the AUTO-SIZING button

After connecting the monitor to the

E

PC, first press the AUTO-SIZING

button on the front panel. The

 

AUTO-SIZING function centers the

 

displayed image, aligning the

 

image’s borders with respect to the

 

monitor frame.

 

In general, press the AUTO-SIZING button whenever changing the graphics board ro the resolution or when image size and/or position is incorrect.

If further adjustment is required, adjust the picture size/position as desired using the Size/Position function in the ScreenManager. Refer to page 11.

Some signals from the graphics board may not function properly.

A solid-color screen (i.e. red, green, blue) may appear for an instant while performing the AUTO-SIZING function, while this phenomenon is not a failure.

Setting the resolution

The following look-up table shows the maximum (Non-interlaced) vertical refresh rates for this model with regard to standard resolutions set forth by VESA. The best way to see if the monitor will work with a given resolution and rate, is to compare the vertical refresh rate of the graphics board to the monitor’s range (Refer to the graphics board manual for specifications). If the refresh rate is within the specified range of the monitor, it should operate properly.

What is Resolution?

Resolution is expressed as the number of dots (pixels) displayed on the screen. A larger number of dots produces a more sharply defined (a higher-resolution) image.

Note that for a given screen size the dot size decreases as the number of dots increases: a 640 × 480 (dot × line) resolution uses larger pixels than a 1024 × 768 resolution. The display size of a given font therefore varies according to the resolution. Higher resolutions allow you to display more information on the screen.
