PowerThis section describes how to select a computer or video source and how to adjust the picture and sound.
General ControlsBefore you turn on your MultiSync XV29 Plus monitor ensure that the computer or video source is turned on.
To adjust:1.Turn On The MonitorThe power button is on the front panel of the monitor. By turning this switch on, the POWER/STANDBY indicator will turn to green and the monitor will become ready to use. OSM is also usable from the front bezel.
After you press the POWER OFF button SOURCE SELECT on the remote control, the monitor will go into its standby mode and the POWER/STANDBY indicator will glow red.
2.Select The Computer Or Video SourcePress the “VIDEO 1” or “VIDEO 2” (VCR, document camera, or laser disc player), or “RGB 1” or ” RGB 2”(computer) button on the remote control to display the image. Or press the button on the front panel to
the CRT itself, causing color impurities. In these cases, use the DEGAUSS key once to demagnetize the picture tube. Pressing this key once demagnetizes the picture tube for 5 seconds.
CAUTION: Please allow a minimum of 30 minutes to elapse between uses of the DEGAUSS key, when not switching from mode to mode. Do not hold the key down continuously to avoid decreasing the life of the degauss circuitry.
Using OSM ControlsNEC's new OSM, or

DegaussingThe earth's magnetic field and other magnetic sources can magnetize a color picture tube causing patches of impure colors. This monitor automatically demagnetizes the picture tube for 5 seconds each time the monitor is switched on. Sometimes during transportation a severe magnetic field can be encountered which may require demagnetizing to clear the problem. Also, if powered on for extended periods of time, magnetic fields can be produced by
POSITION CONTROL up/down:selects one of the control items.POSITION CONTROLNOTE: The NORMAL function is not valid in the OSM Turn Off Time, Language
