ÅWARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your
equipment: Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The
grounding plug is an important safety feature.
Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is
easily accessible at all times.
Disconnect power from the monitor by unplugging the power cord
from the electrical outlet.
Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Arrange them so
that no one may accidentally step on or trip over them. Do not pull on
a cord or cable. When unplugging from the electrical outlet, grasp
the cord by the plug.
ÄCAUTION: Burn-in image damage may occur on monitors that
display the same static image on screen for a prolonged period of
time. To avoid burn-in image damage on your monitor screen, you
should always activate a screen saver application or turn off the
monitor when it is not in use for a prolonged period of time.
Selecting the Signal Connectors and Cables
There are four signal input connectors: one VGA connector, one
DVI-I connector, one super video connector, and one composite
video connector. The monitor will automatically determine which
inputs have valid video signals. The inputs can be selected via the
On-Screen Display (OSD) feature or by pressing the Signal Input
Selection control on the monitor front bezel.
The video mode supported by the DVI-I connector is determined
by the video cable used. For digital operation, use the DVI-D to
DVI-D signal cable provided. For analog operation, a DVI-I to
VGA signal cable must be attached to the DVI-I input (not
provided with the monitor).

Before you can mount the monitor onto a swing arm or other
mounting fixture, you must remove the monitor from the base.
ÄCAUTION: Before beginning to disassemble the monitor, be sure
the monitor is turned off and the power and signal cables are both
disconnected.
To remove the monitor from the base:
ÄCAUTION: Lay the front bezel down on a soft area to prevent it from
getting scratched, defaced, or broken.
ÅWARNING: Before removing the monitor from the base, ensure that
the monitor is lying flat, front bezel down, and that the base is set to
the maximum base extension. Attempting to remove the monitor from
the base while upright in the minimum base extension may result in
injury to the user.

Special OSD messages appear on the monitor screen when
identifying the following monitor conditions:
■Cannot display this video mode, change computer display
input to 1600 x 1200 @ 60Hz—indicates the monitor is
unable to access or fully support the provided input signal.

■Entering sleep mode—Indicates the screen display is entering
a sleep mode.
■No video input—Indicates the video cable may not
be plugged into the computer or the computer may not be
turned on.
Adjusting Screen Quality
Allow the monitor to warm up for 20 minutes before performing
the following procedures.
The Auto Adjustment feature automatically fine-tunes the image
quality each time a new video mode is utilized. If additional
improvement is desired, select the Auto Adjust control on the
front bezel.
For more precise adjustments, use the adjustment pattern
provided on the CD-ROM, and adjust the clock and phase
settings (accessed via the OSD) as described in the following
section.
Optimizing Digital Conversion
This monitor contains advanced circuitry that allows the flat
panel screen to function like a standard monitor. Two controls
in the on-screen display can be adjusted to improve image
performance: Clock and Clock Phase. Use these controls only
when the auto adjust function does not provide a satisfactory
image.
■Clock—Increase/decrease the value to minimize any vertical
bars or stripes visible on the screen background.
■Clock Phase—Increase/decrease the value to minimize video
distortion or video jitter.
305494-001.book Page 15 Tuesday, August 20, 2002 8:36 AM

✎The Clock must first be set correctly since the Clock Phase
settings are dependent on the main Clock setting.
When using the controls, you will obtain the best results by using
the adjustment pattern provided on the CD-ROM.
When adjusting the Clock and Clock Phase values, if the monitor
images become distorted, continue adjusting the values until the
distortion disappears. To restore the factory settings, select Yes
from the Factory Reset menu in the on-screen display.
