Using the Display

Setting the Timing Mode

Setting the timing mode is important for maximizing the quality of the screen image and minimizing eye strain. The timing mode consists of the resolution (example 1024 x 768) and refresh rate (or vertical frequency; example 60 Hz). After setting the timing mode, use the OSD (On-screen Display) controls to adjust the screen image.
For optimal picture quality, please use the recommended timing mode specific to your display listed on the "Specification" page.
To set the Timing Mode:

  • Setting the resolution: Access "Appearance and Personalization" from Control Panel via the Start Menu, and set the resolution.
  • Setting the refresh rate: See your graphic card's user guide for instructions.


Please make sure that your graphics card is set to 60Hz vertical refresh rate as the recommended setting for most displays. Choosing a non supported timing mode setting may result in no image being displayed, and a message showing "Out of Range" will appear on screen.

OSD and Power Lock Settings

  • OSD Lock: Press and hold [1] and the up arrow ▲ for 10 seconds. If any buttons are pressed the message OSD Locked will display for 3 seconds.
  • OSD Unlock: Press and hold [1] and the up arrow ▲ again for 10 seconds.
  • Power Button Lock: Press and hold [1] and the down arrow ▼ for 10 seconds. If the power button is pressed the message Power Button Locked will display for 3 seconds. With or without this setting, after a power failure, your display's power will automatically turn ON when power is restored.
  • Power Button Unlock: Press and hold [1] and the down arrow ▼ again for 10 seconds.

Adjusting the Screen Image

Use the buttons on the front control panel to display and adjust the OSD controls which display on the screen.

Do the following to adjust the display setting:

  1. To display the Main Menu, press button [1].
    NOTE: All OSD menus and adjustment screens disappear automatically after about 15 seconds. This is adjustable through the OSD timeout setting in the setup menu.
  2. To select a control to adjust, press ▲ or ▼ to scroll up or down in the Main Menu.
  3. After the desired control is selected, press button [2].
  4. To save the adjustments and exit the menu, press button [1] until OSD disappear.

The following tips may help you optimize your display:

  • Adjust the computer's graphics card to support a recommended timing mode (refer to "Specifications" page for recommended setting specific to your display). To find instructions on "changing the refresh rate", please refer to the graphics card's user guide.
  • If necessary, make small adjustments using H. POSITION and V. POSITION until the screen image is completely visible. (The black border around the edge of the screen should barely touch the illuminated "active area" of the display.)

Adjust the menu items by using the up ▲ and down ▼ buttons.
NOTE: Check the Main Menu items on your display OSD and refer to Main Menu Explanation below.

NOTE: The Main Menu items listed in this section indicates whole Main Menu items of all models. For the actual Main Menu details corresponding to your product refer to the items on your display's OSD Main Menu.

  • ViewSonic will not be liable for damage resulting from use of any ammonia or alcoholbased cleaners.

Troubleshooting

No power

  • Make sure power button (or switch) is ON.
  • Make sure A/C power cord is securely connected to the display.
  • Plug another electrical device (like a radio) into the power outlet to verify that the outlet is supplying proper voltage.

Power is ON but no screen image

  • Make sure the video cable supplied with the display is properly secured to the video output port on the back of the computer. If the other end of the video cable is not attached permanently to the display, properly secure it to the display.
  • Adjust brightness and contrast.
  • If you are using an Macintosh older than G3, you need a Macintosh adapter.

Wrong or abnormal colors
