The Priority Input Signal

This function is used to select which PC will have priority to control the monitor when utilizing two PCs. 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 this case of only one signal being present at either input, the monitor automatically detects and displays that signal.
