Installation of First Use 1.The installation of the monitor is very simple. What you need to do is to take the monitor from the packing box and remove all the packing materials. And then put the monitor on the desk carefully; fold the monitor base, so that the monitor can stand on the desk properly.
Setup 1.Connecting video (Note: Before connecting computer, ensure the resolution and refresh rate of the computer do not exceed the following settings - resolution: 1280*1024, refresh rate: 75Hz.) 1.1 Turn off your computer 1.2 Connect the video signal cable to the VGA port of your PC, tighten the screws on the connector onto the computer 1.3 Connect the other end of video signal cable to the VGA-IN port at the back of the monitor, tighten the screws on the connector onto the monitor 2.Connecting power 2.1 Plug the female end of the power cord in to the AC-IN port at the back of the monitor...
Customizing your Monitor The On Screen Display (OSD) system provides a full range of customizable tools to optimize your display. While full customization is available, we strongly recommend using the Auto Adjustment function, which are preset to fully optimize your monitor’s performance. Simply presses the buttons simultaneously to engage the Important: Auto Adjustment.

Interface Frequency 1.The following frequency range is the working period. If the entered mode between below period but not match the frequency of supported timing, display optimization would not be assured. If the entered mode is out of the working period, the display will be blanking (just show “Input Signal Out Of Range”) then go to power saving. 2.Basically, mode judgment is regardless the sync polarity except both or more modes that are all belong to the supported timing list and could be judged by sync polarity only.
Supported timing list 1.If the selected timing is NOT included in table below, this LCD monitor will use the most suitable available timing. Pixel Resolution H Frequency H Total Clock Width Size Frequency 640X350@50Hz 25.175M 31.469KHz 4.000 50.030Hz 640X350@60Hz 25.175M 31.469KHz 4.000 59.941Hz...

Addendum Advanced Power Saving Mode 1.Background The traditional monitors have the function of electricity-saving dormancy. But the interval of dormancy is difficult to decide. If the interval is long, the purpose of saving electricity can not be achieved. While the interval is short, your computer and LCD monitor would be dormant often.
