1.2 Troubleshooting the Problem
This section provides flowcharts for troubleshooting different types of
monitor problems. The flowcharts make two assumptions:
•
If FRUs were replaced, the correct procedures in Chapter 3 were

•
Adjustment procedures were performed as necessary.
Problems may come from two sources—your host system or your monitor.
Types of Problems
The following flowcharts cover seven types of monitor problems:
If you have this problem . . .
