Terminology

Dot Pitch

The monitor and screen consist of red, green and blue dots. A shorter distance between the dots produces a higher resolution. Dot pitch refers to the distance between the shortest distance between dots of the same color. Dot pitch is measured in millimeters.

Vertical Frequency

The monitor displays a single image many times per second (like a fluorescent light that flickers) to display an image for a viewer to see. The rate of a single image being displayed repeatedly per second is called vertical frequency or refresh rate. Vertical frequency is measured in Hz.

E.g. 60Hz refers to a single image being displayed 60 times in one second.

Horizontal Frequency

The time required to scan a single line from the left to the right side of the screen is called a horizontal cycle. The reciprocal number of a horizontal cycle is called horizontal frequency. Horizontal frequency is measured in kHz.

Plug & Play

Plug & Play is a function that allows the automatic exchange of information between a monitor and PC to produce an optimum display environment. The product uses VESA DDC (international standard) to execute Plug & Play.

Resolution

Resolution is the number of horizontal dots (pixels) and vertical dots (pixels) that form a screen. It represents the level of display detail. A higher resolution enables more data to be displayed on the screen and is useful to perform multiple tasks simultaneously.

E.g. A resolution of 1920 X 1080 consists of 1,920 horizontal pixels (horizontal resolution) and 1,080 vertical pixels (vertical resolution).

Multiple Display Control (MDC)

MDC (Multiple Display Control) is an application that allows multiple display devices to be controlled simultaneously using a PC. Communication between a PC and monitor takes place using RS232C (serial data transmission) and RJ45 (LAN) cables.

DVD(Digital Versatile Disc)

DVD refers to a CD-sized mass storage disk where you can save multimedia (audio, video or game) applications using MPEG-2 video compression technology.
