Important safety information
Only use the power cord and AC adapter included with the monitor, it provides the
correct type of power and was tested for use with your product.
Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is always easily accessible. Disconnect
the monitor by grasping the plug firmly and pulling it from the AC outlet. Never
disconnect the monitor by pulling the cord.
The power cord is equipped with a three-wire grounded (earthed) plug. The plug
only fits in a grounded power outlet. Make sure the power outlet is properly
grounded before inserting the power cord plug. Do not disable the power cord
grounding pin, for example by attaching a 2-pin adapter. The grounding pin is an
important safety feature.
Be sure that the total ampere rating of the products connected to the AC outlet
does not exceed the current rating of the outlet, and that the total ampere rating of
the products connected to the cord does not exceed the rating of the cord. Also,
make sure that the total rating of all products plugged into the wall outlet does not
exceed the fuse rating. Look on the power label to determine the ampere rating
(AMPS or A) for each device.
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. These openings must
not be blocked or covered. Never push objects of any kind into cabinet slots or other
openings, or spill liquid of any kind onto or into the product.
Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive light, heat, or
moisture.
Do not use the monitor in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, as
sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire. Such areas are often (but not
always) marked and include areas where you would normally be advised to turn off
your vehicle engine, below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities,
vehicles using liquefied gas such as propane or butane, and areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
For the protection of the monitor, as well as the computer, connect all power cords
for the computer and its peripheral devices (such as a monitor, printer, scanner) to
some form of surge protection device such as a power strip or uninterruptible power
supply (UPS). Not all power strips provide surge protection; the power strips must
be specifically labeled as having this capability. Use a power strip whose
manufacturer offers a damage replacement policy so you can replace the
equipment if surge protection fails.
To reduce the risk of serious injury, observe proper workstation setup, and proper
posture, health, and work habits for computer users.
Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Care should be taken to route or
arrange all cords and cables connected to Spectrum so that they cannot be pulled,
grabbed, stepped on, or tripped over.

Do not drop the monitor or place it on an unstable or vibrating surface. Use the
appropriate and correctly sized furniture designed to properly support your Dough
Spectrum. Monitors that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases,
shelves, desks, speakers, chests, or carts may fall over and cause damage or
personal injury.
This product is suitable for entertainment purposes. Consider placing the monitor in
a controlled luminous environment to avoid interference from surrounding light and
bright surfaces that may cause disturbing reflections from the screen.

About Spectrum
At Dough, we believe in putting product decisions in the hands of the end-user. Each
and every aspect throughout the development process has been debated and
discussed together with dough.community, a gathering of 10 000 tech enthusiasts
who love premium devices with bleeding-edge technology. By putting our minds
together with hardcore gamers, coders, and designers, we built the ultimate
monitor: Spectrum.
As a result, your monitor has a unique blend of awesome features. Let’s have a look!
Features
Spectrum is an In-Plane Switching (IPS) monitor that produces rich on-screen colors
and creates better viewing angles. This IPS screen is paired with a 280Hz refresh
rate and a faster response time of 1ms, giving you both speed and good picture
quality. Because you shouldn’t have to choose.
The product supports FreeSync™, an Adaptive-Sync technology, and is compatible
with G-SYNC®. It is designed to reduce stuttering and tearing in games and videos by
locking the monitor's refresh rate to the frame rate of the graphics card. Check with
your graphics card manufacturer for compatibility with Adaptive-Sync monitors.
Spectrum is calibrated at the factory to provide maximum color accuracy in the
DCI-P3 color space, so the monitor is ready to use for color critical applications with
minimal setup. These factory calibration settings are saved in monitor memory and
work independently from the source device used. Aone-page calibration report is
printed and included with each monitor.
Two High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) 2.1 video inputs can take an
uncompressed 10-bit 1440p 280Hz image signal from modern graphics cards and
offer Adaptive-Sync and high refresh rate features on the latest consoles.
Overdrive and blur reduction settings were tuned by experts to provide usable
presets for anyone to start gaming straight out of the box. On top of these,
Spectrum offers unparalleled custom adjustment options for high-speed gaming.
The built-in USB hub can be connected to a host computer using either USB Type-B or
Type-C. You can switch between these inputs freely or have them switch along with
your video signal to imitate the effect of a KVM switch.
Spectrum can be connected to a mobile device with a single USB Type-C cable,
simultaneously powering or charging the device (up to 100W), displaying an image,
playing back audio, and providing access to the built-in USB hub.
NOTE: All specifications referenced are typical and provided by Dough's
component manufacturers. Actual performance might vary either higher or
lower. The native response time is 5ms, 1ms is the overdrive response time.
Adaptive refresh rates vary by display.
You can find more detailed information in the Technical Specifications section on
page 45.
