Using the Monitor

Setting the Timing Mode

Setting the timing mode is important for maximizing the quality of the screen image and

minimizing eye strain. The timing mode consists of the resolution (example 800 x 600) and

refresh rate (or vertical frequency; example 85 Hz). After setting the timing mode, use the

OSD (On Screen Display) controls to adjust the screen image.

For the best picture quality set your monitor timing mode to:

VESA 800 x 600 @ 85 Hz.

To set the Timing Mode:

1. Set the resolution:Right-click on the Windows desktop > Properties > Settings > set the

resolution.

2. Set the refresh rate:See your graphic card’s user guide for instructions.

Note : The refresh rate should already be set if you have done the CD installation (or refer to

your graphics card documentation).
