Using the LCD Display

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 1600 x 1200) and refresh rate (or vertical frequency;

example 60 Hz). After setting the timing mode, use the OnView®controls

to adjust the screen image.

For the best picture quality set your LCD display timing mode to:

VESA 1600 x 1200 @ 60Hz.

To set the Timing Mode:

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

Settings > set the resolution.

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

WARNING: Do not set the graphics card in your computer to exceed the

maximum refresh rate of 85Hz; doing so may result in permanent damage to

your LCD display .

•OSD Unlock: Press and hold [1] and the up arrow ▲again for 10 seconds.

•Power Button Lock: Press and hold [1] and the down arrow ▼for 10

seconds. If the power button is pressed the message Power Button Locked

will display for 5 seconds. With or without this setting, after a power failure,

your LCD display’s power will automatically turn ON when power is

restored.

1200 @ 60 Hz to the LCD display. (Look for instructions on “changing the

refresh rate” in your graphic card's user guide.)

• If necessary, make small adjustments using H POSITION and V POSITION

until the screen image is completely visible. (The black border around the

edge of the screen should barely touch the illuminated “active area” of the

LCD display.)
