Explanation

 

VIDEO DETECT

Selects the method of video detection when more than one computer is connected.

 

 

FIRST

 

 

The video input must be switched to FIRST mode. When the primary video input signal is

 

 

lost, the monitor searches for a secondary signal from the alternate video input port. If

 

 

a video signal is present, the monitor will automatically switch to the active source. The

 

 

monitor will not look for other video signals while the primary video source is present.

 

 

LAST

 

 

The video input must be switched to LAST mode. No matter if a video source is playing in

 

 

the primary video port, the monitor will switch signals if video is present in the alternate, or

 

 

secondary port.

 

 

NONE

 

 

The monitor will not search the alternate video input port unless the port has been turned

 

 

on.

 

OFF TIMER

The monitor will automatically power down after a preset period of use. Before powering

 

 

off, a message will appear on the screen asking if the user wants to delay the shut off time

 

 

by 60 minutes. Press any OSD button to accept the delay. To adjust the preset period of

 

 

time, select ON, then press SELECT and LEFT or RIGHT.

 

UNIFORMITY

Electronically compensates for the slight variations in the white uniformity level, as well as

 

 

for deviations in color that may occur throughout the display area of the screen. These

 

 

variations are characteristic of LCD panel technology. This function improves the color and

 

 

evens out the luminance uniformity of the display. Using the UNIFORMITY feature reduces

 

 

the overall peak luminance of the display. If greater luminance is desired over the uniform

 

 

performance of the display, then UNIFORMITY should be turned off.

 

POWER MANAGER

The Power Manager has three settings:

 

 

OFF

 

 

Monitor does not go into power save mode when the input signal is lost.

 

 

STANDARD

 

 

Monitor enters power save mode automatically when the input signal is lost.

OPTION

Monitor enters power save mode automatically when the amount of surrounding light goes below the level that is determined by the user. The level can be adjusted in Tag7 of the

4.9.Advanced Menu Functions. When in POWER MANAGER, the LED on the front of the monitor blinks amber. While in POWER MANAGER, push any of the front buttons, except for POWER and SELECT, to return to normal. When the amount of surrounding light returns to standard levels, the monitor will automatically return to normal mode.
