	and the monitor.

If your monitor screen remains blank after using the previous procedure, check your video controller and computer system; your monitor is functioning properly.

Getting Help

If your monitor does not display an image, check your cable connections and refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 20. If you experience difﬁculties with the quality of the displayed image, run Auto Adjustment (see page 11) and refer to “Adjusting Your LCD” on page 10 or “Troubleshooting” on page 20.

Warm-up Time

All LCD monitors need time to become thermally stable the ﬁrst time you turn them on each day. Therefore, to achieve more accurate adjustments for parameters, allow the LCD monitor to warm (be on) for at least 20 minutes before making any screen adjustments.
