User modes

When using a video mode that is not one of the preset modes, some fine tuning may be required to optimize the display to your preference. Simply adjust the monitor according to the adjustments instructions on pages 9 to 15. The adjustments will be stored automatically and recalled whenever that mode is used.

A total of 16 user-defined modes can be stored in memory. If a 17th mode is entered, it will replace the first.

For less common modes, and modes that may evolve in the future, the Digital Multiscan Technology of this monitor 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 should be more than 0.8 µsec. Horizontal blanking width should be more than 2.7 µsec.

Note for Windows® 2) 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.

When you set the INPUT switch to “AUTO”and connect computers to both connectors

If you turn on or restart the computer you want to input a signal from, or the computer is in power saving mode, the monitor may automatically select another computer’s signal. This is because no signal is input to the monitor at that moment. If this happens, select the signal using the INPUT switch.
