Clock

With the analog input signal display, the analog signal is converted to a digital signal by the LCD circuitry. To convert the signal correctly, the LCD monitor needs to produce the same number clock pulse as the dot clock of the graphics system. When the clock pulse is not correctly set, some vertical bars of distortion are displayed on the screen.

Color Temperature (Temperature)

Color Temperature is a method to measure the white color tone, generally indicated in degrees Kelvin. At high temperatures the white tone appears somewhat blue, while at lower temperatures it appears somewhat red. Computer monitors generally give best performance at high temperature settings.

5,000 K: Slightly reddish white.

6,500 K: Warm-white tone, similar to white paper or daylight.

9,300 K: Slightly bluish white.

DVI (Digital Visual Interface)

A digital flat panel interface. DVI can transmit digital data from the PC directly without loss with the signal transition method "TMDS".

There are two kinds of DVI connectors. One is DVI-D connector for digital signal input only. The other is DVI-I connector for both digital and analog signal inputs.

DVI DMPM (DVI Digital Monitor Power Management)

The Power management system for the digital interface. The "Monitor ON" status (operation mode) and the "Active Off" status (power-saving mode) are indispensable for the DVI-DMPM as the monitor's power mode.
