Plug and Play

This monitor conforms to the VESA DDC (Display Data Channel) standard, which
means that when it is used with a DDC compatible video card, the monitor is easier
to set up. With VESA DDC 1/2B, when the monitor is turned on, it will automatically
notify a windows 9X/2000/XP host computer of its scanning frequencies,
capabilities and characteristics. Windows 9X/2000/XP will automatically recognize
the presence of the monitor and select the appropriate display resolution.

Visual Inspection

Permanently unlit or lit pixels
The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault
free LCD display. A few isolated permanently lit or unlit pixels may be present. The
maximum permitted number of pixel faults is stipulated in the stringent international
standard ISO 13406-2 (Class II).
Example:
A 17" flat-screen monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 has 1280 x 1024 =
1310720 pixels. Each pixel consists of three subpixels (red, green and blue),
so there are about 4 million dots in total.
According to ISO 13406-2 (Class II), a maximum of 6 pixels and 7 subpixels may be
defective, i. e. a total of 25 faulted dots.
