Selecting the Graphic Picture Enhancement (GPE) Mode

The Graphic Picture Enhancement (GPE) button allows you to automatically change the characteristics of the picture on the screen to match the use of your monitor. Simply press the GPE button to scroll between the three modes.

1Turn on the monitor and computer.

2Press the GPE button to set the mode.

GPE

Each time you press the GPE button, the mode appears on the screen and changes as follows.

nSTANDARD MODE n PRESENTATION MODE n GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE

The STANDARD MODE is ideal for spreadsheets, word processing, and other text oriented applications.

The PRESENTATION MODE is useful for presentation programs that require vivid colors.

The GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE gives movies and games enhanced visual appeal by increasing the sharpness and brightness.

The selected mode indication appears on the screen for about 3 seconds.

If the screen appears too white, adjust the color temperature as explained in “Using the COLOR On-screen Display” on page 11.

Note

The PRESENTATION MODE and GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE may produce ghost images when displaying text oriented applications. These modes change the brightness of the picture dynamically according to changes in moving pictures. If ghost images appear, set the GPE to STANDARD MODE.

Preset and User Modes

The monitor has factory preset modes for the 9 (CPD- 100GS) or 10 (CPD-200GS) most popular industry standards for true “plug and play” capability.

Recommended horizontal and vertical timing conditions

Horizontal sync width duty should be 1.0 µsec of total horizontal time.

Horizontal blanking width should be ≥3.0 µsec for CPD-200GS. Horizontal blanking width should be ≥3.6 µsec for CPD-100GS. Vertical blanking width should be ≥500 µsec for both CPD-100GS and CPD-200GS.

Note for Windows® users

For Windows users, check your video board manual or the utility program which comes with your graphic board and select the highest available refresh rate to maximize monitor performance.
