About the Product
This TFT-LCD monitor is made by precision technology. It is common to have
black spots (lack of pixels) or luminous spots on the panel. Such condition is not
a product defect or failure.
About interfering stripes on the screen (moire pattern)
If the screen shows parallel adjoining streaks or latticed pattern in 2~3 colors, it is
called the moire pattern. It is the result of interference between luminous colors,
not a defect. When interfering stripes appear, adjust the image according to the
instructions in “When the screen shows interfering stripes/noise” to obtain
optimum image quality. P21
The recommended resolution of this product is 1280×768 pixels. Some graphic
cards do not support 1280×768 pixels. In such case, set the resolution at
1024x768 pixels, press the “Full Screen” button on remote to adjust to normal
display.
If the LCD stands still for a long duration, there might be “residual image”
phenomenon even when other images are displayed.
To avoid this problem, use the screensaver in the operating system.
If residual image phenomenon has occurred, keeping the screen in white for a
long time might correct it.
About the “smoothing” function
In situation where Full Screen display is set, the image
will be magnified when the resolution is less than 1280
×768 pixels. At this time, the product will automatically
fill the voids with neutral colors (smoothing) to allow
the display of smooth characters and graphics. As a
result, the characters or graphics might look spread out
or feathered. It is not a defect.
Also, if the black characters against white background
look blurred, adjust the contrast.P14 , P15
