Some signals from graphics boards may not function properly.

A solid-color screen (i.e. red, green, blue) may appear for an instant while performing the auto-sizing function, this phenomenon is not a failure.

5) Characters are too large.

Change the resolution of the graphics board to a higher setting. (Refer to the manual for the graphics board or PC.)

What is Resolution?

Resolution is expressed as the number of dots (pixels) displayed on the screen. A larger number of dots produces a more sharply defined (a higher-resolution) image.

Note that for a given screen size the dot size decreases as the number of dots increases: a 640 x 480 (dot x line) resolution uses larger pixels than a 1024 x 768 resolution. The display size of a given font therefore varies according to the resolution. Higher resolutions allow you to display more information on the screen.

Changing the resolution

If you are using a Macintosh, you can change the resolution from the APPLE menu by selecting “Option” from “Monitor” or “Sound & Display.” If you are using a PC other than a Macintosh, refer to the manual for your PC or graphics board for information. Please refer to both the graphics board and monitor manuals for the scanning frequency compatibility.
