Page 15: Checking The Connection
Checking the Connection Turn on the monitor by pressing the monitor power button. Check whether the screen turns on when starting the PC. If the monitor is working normally, the LED signal lamp shines green (in 2D mode) or red (in 3D mode). If the LED signal lamp shines green or red and there is no image on the display, please check whether the screen setup of the PC is set at a resolution in the range of 640x480~1280x1024 and at a frequency in the range of 60Hz~75Hz. -
Page 16: Comparison Of 2D And 3D Mode
Comparison of 2D and 3D Mode If the screen appears blurred or the LED signal lamp is red, the display is in 3D mode. For switching from 3D mode to 2D mode, press the [2D/3D] button at the OSD control on the front of the monitor. -
Page 17: Adjustments In 2D Mode
2D Mode CHAPTER Adjustments in 2D Mode Please check whether the color of the LED signal lamp is green. If it is red, please switch into 2D mode by pressing the [2D/3D] button. Change of Input Channel ▒ When pressing the [▶] button in 2D mode, you can switch between linked analog or DVI input channels. -
Page 18: Chapter 3 Brightness
Brightness ▒ When pressing the [◀] or [▶] button in the first tab of the OSD (On Screen Display) menu, the brightness control scroll bar decreases or increases. After adjusting to the desired level, please press the [2D/3D] button to confirm your changes and leave the OSD menu. Without pressing the [2D/3D] button, the new setting is automatically confirmed after a few seconds and the OSD menu disappears. -
Page 19: Color
Color ▒ In the second tab of the menu you can adjust the image color of the monitor. You can manually control colors and select color temperature settings. [Color control OSD screen] Image Type Mode ▒ The visual output of the monitor can be adjusted in the third tab of the menu. Choose between Normal, Cinema, Vivid, Nature, or Sports mode. -

Page 21: Viewing Angles In 3D Mode
3D Mode CHAPTER Viewing Angles in 3D Mode For best results in 3D mode, please sit at a distance of about 80 cm (+/- 12 cm) from the monitor. The 3D effect can be viewed from so called sweet spots. The ideal position is directly centered in front of the display. -
Page 22: Frame Sequential Format
Frame Sequential Format ▒ Image format in which the left eye image and the right eye image (hereinafter called L image and R image) are seen over the whole screen (in the resolution 1280x1024). Most graphic cards support this output. Even though this format has the advantage of not reducing the resolution of the image, it has the demerit that a slight flickering might be perceived, as the frame rate gets reduced. -
Page 23: Reverse Function
Reverse Function In our natural environment we can judge whether an object is near or far because we observe the object with two eyes. Left and right eye look at same object from a slightly different angle and the cerebrum processes this into a perception of distance and creates a cubic effect. When watching 3D content on a real 3D monitor, the order of images for left and right eye is of importance for the perception of the 3D effect. -
Page 24: Brightness
Brightness ▒ After moving to the brightness control tab by pushing the [MENU] button once more, the brightness can be adjusted by using the [◀] or [▶] button. After completing the adjustments you can safe and exit by pressing the [2D/3D] button. Without pressing the [2D/3D] button, the menu disappears and the setting is saved after a few seconds. -
Page 25: Chapter 5 Graphic Card Installation For 3D Games
3D Graphic Card Settings CHAPTER Graphic Card Installation for 3D Games 3D games using DirectX 9 or above can usually be viewed in stereoscopic 3D.

Page 29: Stereo Setup And Test
Stereo Setup and Test ▒ "Stereo parameters" can be set at "Stereo Setup & Test". 1280x1024 resolution and 60Hz frequency are recommended. Most 3D games are in "Frame Sequential" format. Click the [MENU] button to see if the 3D image format is selected as "Frame Sequential". If another format is selected, use the [◀] or [▶] button to select the correct format and use the [2D/3D] button to confirm and leave the menu. -
Page 30: Troubleshooting
Miscellaneous CHAPTER Troubleshooting Problem: When you switch your PC monitor from a CRT to our LCD monitor, there is no picture displayed on the screen. Check: Does the picture appear after a short while and after displaying the "Out of Range" signal? Act: Re-boot PC. - Page 31 Problem: 3D is out of focus in subfield mode. Act: Some images in subfield mode have a gap between the left and right eye pictures. Due to this gap the 3D image might be out of focus. Please adjust the distance between the images by using the [◀] or [▶] button.

Page 34: Explanations Of 3D Image Formats
Appendix Explanations of 3D Image Formats Frame Sequential Format ▒ This format displays the images for left and right eye over the whole screen in sequence, one after another. (Since the frame rate is cut in half, you might experience some kind of blinking phenomenon, even though normally this is not noticeable to the human eye). -
Page 35: Sub-Field Format
Sub-Field Format ▒ This 3D image format displays at the same time images for the left and right eye by placing them below each other. This format has the demerit that the vertical resolution decreases. [Photo without gap] [Photo with gap] Interlaced Stereo Format ▒...
