resolution color LCD monitor. This monitor can be directly connected to general 15-pin D-sub VGA, 24-pin DVI and
21-pin HDMI connectors, also supports VESA DPMS power management and plug & play function.
Additional information
Due to the nature of liquid crystal display (LCD) technology, the picture resolution is always fixed. For the best
display performance, please set the display resolution to 1920x1080 pixels. This is called “Native Resolution” or
maximal resolution – that is, the clearest picture. Lower resolutions are displayed on a full screen through an
interpolation circuit. Image blurring across pixel boundaries can occur with the interpolated resolution depending
upon the image type and its initial resolution.
