Operating the Monitor

Using the Auto-Adjustment Function

You can easily optimize the screen performance for the VGA input by using the Auto/Select button on the monitor and the auto-adjustment pattern software on the CD provided.

Do not use this procedure if your monitor is using a DVI or HDMI input. If your monitor is using the VGA input, this procedure can correct the following image-quality conditions:

■Fuzzy or unclear focus

■Ghosting, streaking, or shadowing effects

■Faint vertical bars

■Thin, horizontal scrolling lines

■Off-center picture

CAUTION: Burn-in image damage may occur on monitors that display the same static image on screen for a prolonged period of time (12 consecutive hours of non-use). To avoid burn-in image damage on your monitor screen, you should always activate a screen saver application or turn off the monitor when it is not in use for a prolonged period of time. Image retention is a condition that may occur on all LCD screens.

To use the auto-adjustment feature:

1.Allow the monitor to warm up for 20 minutes before adjusting.

2.Press the Auto/Select button on the monitor front panel.

❏You can also press the Menu button, and then select Image Control, followed by Auto Adjustment from the OSD menu. See “Adjusting Screen Quality” in this chapter.

❏If the result is not satisfactory, continue with the procedure.

3.Insert the CD in your computer CD drive. The CD menu displays.

4.Select the language.

5.Select Open Auto-Adjustment Software.
