Recommendations for your PC
The M1500 Marine Monitor complies with VESA DDC1/2B Windows Plug and Play. A computer running Windows 2000, XP and later versions may interrogate the monitor for its technical characteristics.
For best results Raymarine recommend that you set the PC to match the display characteristics as follows:
Resolution | Refresh Rate |
|
|
640 x 480 | 60 Hz |
|
|
800 x 600 | 72 Hz |
|
|
1024 x 768 | 60 Hz |
1024 x 768 | 70 Hz |
|
|
1280 x 1024 | 60 Hz |
|
|
Note: 1024 x 768 at 60Hz is the preferred resolution and refresh rate.
Unlike CRT Displays, LCD displays do not flicker, hence selecting a higher re- fresh rate provides no advantage.
