Self-Test Feature Check

Note
Your monitor provides a self test feature that allows you to check whether your monitor is functioning
properly.
Self-Test Feature Check
1. Turn off both your computer and the monitor.
2. Unplug the video cable from the back of the computer.
3. Turn on the monitor.
If the monitor is functioning properly, you will see a box in the illustration below.
Note
For models with an Analog interface only, "Analog/Digital" is not shown in the Warning Message
OSD.
This box appears during normal operation if the video cable becomes disconnected or damaged.
4. Turn off your monitor and reconnect the video cable; then turn on both your computer and the
monitor.
If your monitor screen remains blank after using the previous procedure, check your video controller
and computer system; your monitor is functioning properly.

Warning Messages

blank although the power indicator LED is still on. The message may indicate that the monitor is out
of scan range or that you need to check the signal cable.
