Selecting the Active Input

The Input Signal Selection switch on the control panel can be used to select either SIGNAL 1 or SIGNAL 2 as the active input at any time. Every time the switch is touched, the input changes. When switching the signal, the kind of the input signal (Signal 1 or 2/ Analog or Digital) is displayed for a few seconds on the right top corner of the screen.

This function is used to select which PC will have priority to control the monitor when utilizing two PCs.

Input Signal Selection Switch

The monitor constantly checks the input signals and switches automatically in accordance with the "Input Priority" setting (see table below). Once a priority is set, whenever a change of signal is detected at the selected input, the monitor will switch the input to that signal.

In the case of only one signal being present at either input, the monitor automatically detects and displays that signal.
