Using your Monitor

Preset and User Modes

The Multiscan 17seII/20seII has factory preset modes for the 10 most popular industry standards for true “plug and play” capability.

When using a video mode that is not one of the 10 factory preset modes, some fine tuning may be required to optimize the display to your preferences. Simply adjust the monitor according to the preceding adjustment instructions. The adjustments will be stored automatically and recalled whenever that mode is used.

A total of 15 user-defined modes can be stored in memory. If the 16th mode is entered, it will replace the first.

For less common modes, and modes that evolve in the future, the Digital Multiscan Technology of the Multiscan 17seII/20seII will perform all of the complex adjustments necessary to ensure a high quality picture for any timing in its frequency range. However, due to the wide variety of video boards on the market, it may be necessary for the user to fine tune the vertical/horizontal size and centering.

Recommended horizontal timing conditions

Horizontal sync width duty should be: >4.8% of total horizontal time.

Horizontal blanking width should be: >3.0 µsec.

Note: For Windows®4) 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.
