Unknown Video Modes

Your LCD monitor uses state-of-the-art technology, which is designed to synchronize to any display mode. We recommend choosing one of the supported modes listed above. If you choose an unknown mode, you will need to manually adjust the clock, phase, and image position.

If you must use an unknown mode, you can run Auto Setup at first. If Auto Setup doesn’t provide adequate image adjustment, then you must manually adjust the clock, phase, horizontal position, and vertical position.
