5.1 Troubleshooting Chapter 5
1. How do I adjust the resolution?
To change monitor resolution, click Start -> Control Panel -> Display. Select Setting tab to adjust the monitor
resolution in Desktop Area. The available resolutions, “640 x 480”, “800 x 600”, “1024 x 768”, “1152 x 864”,
“1280 x 1024”, are determined by the display card in your computer.
2. Is interference signal appeared on LCD normal when shutting down the computer?
In rare cases, interference may appear on the monitor. This may be caused by signal rate of VGA card and is
considered normal. The image quality can be improved by adjusting the phase or pixel rate automatically or
manualy.
3. The mambrane power light is not ON
Press the power On / Off on LCD membrane to check if the monitor is in the ON mode.
Check the power cord is properly connected to the LCD keyboard drawer and power outlet.
4. Screen image is not center or sized properly
Press the button for two seconds to automatically adjust the image.
Adjust the H-position and V-position settings via On-screen menu.
For SP series LCD Drawer
1. How can I adjust the monitor resolution to 1152 x 900 for SUN Micro system?
The S solution LCD drawer will automatically detect the 1152 x 900 resolution, so no user configuration should
be necessary.
2. How do I adjust the resolution in MS Windows operation system?
To change monitor resolution, click Start -> Control Panel -> Display. Select Setting tab to adjust the monitor
resolution in Desktop Area. The available resolutions, “640 x 480”, “800 x 600”, “1024 x 768”, “1152 x 864”,
“1280 x 1024”, are determined by the display card in your computer.
3. Is the LCD drawer hot-pluggable?
The LCD drawer is hot-pluggable, but components of connected devices, such as the servers and KVMs, may
not be hot-pluggable. We suggest turning off the power to all devices before connecting them. Apply power
to connected devices again only after the LCD receives power.
