PRODUCT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read all these instructions and save this manual for later use. Follow all warnings and instructions on the product.
These safety instructions must be followed to ensure your safety and prevent property damage.
•Do not cover or block the ventilation holes in the enclosure.
•Do not insert sharp objects or spill liquid into the monitor through the cabinet slots. This may cause
accidental fire, electric shock or failure.
•Unplug the unit when not in use for an extended period of time.
•Do not attempt to service this product yourself, since opening or removing the cover may expose you to
potential electric shock. Only a qualified technician should service this product.
PACKAGE CONTENTS
Before operating this monitor, please make sure that all items listed are present in your package:
•LCD Monitor
•AC/DC Adapter
•AC Power Cord
•VGA Cable
•User’s Manual
CONNECTING THE MONITOR
No tools are required to install the LCD monitor. Simply follow the instructions outlined in the next few steps.
Connectors for the signal and power are located on the back panel.
•Connect Signal Cable (VGA): Attached the VGA cable connector with the ferrite bead closest to it to the
graphics card adaptor on your computer system and attached the other end to the monitor. Be cautious in
inserting the cable properly into both connectors. If the cable does not fit it may be facing the wrong
direction. Turn the cable over and try to match the shape of the connector with that of the graphics adapter.
•Connect Power Adapter and Cable: Connect the round shape plug end of the AC/DC adapter to the DC
Power input connector of the LCD monitor. Connect the female end of the power cable to the AC power
input receptacle on the AC/DC adapter. Then plug the male end of the power cable into an AC outlet.

•Connect HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) Cable (Optional): If you have a DVI digital graphics card
adapter and a DVI cable, connect it to the DVI (IN) connector of the monitor. The optional DVI graphics
adapter and the DVI cable can be ordered by contacting Dynamic Displays.
•Connect Audio signal Cable (Optional): Connect Audio In connector of the LCD monitor and an Audio Out
device (PC. DVD, CD) with the attached stereo mini cable.
•Connect Touch Screen Cable (Optional): Connect the optional USB or RS 232 serial touch screen connection
to the driver card or system driving the touch screen controller.
•Turn ON your monitor and system. If your monitor displays an image, installation is complete. If it does not
display an image, please refer Troubleshooting.
If your computer was off, turn on your computer/system. Your display should now operate as a normal computer
display showing your windows or whatever video is being sent to the flat panel.
Note: If for any reason the display has a “Blue Screen” with a message “Out of Range” or “No Input Signal”, your
system source is putting out a signal that is out of range or non compatible with the LCD’s video A/D board. If
this happens, make sure you are inputting the correct signal. If the display doesn’t work properly, it may be
because:
•The resolution is too high or low for the LCD.
•The power source is incorrect.
MONITOR SETUP
Unlike CRT displays, the LCD panel has a fixed pixel format over a set area. So for best performance, the “native
resolution” setting is always recommended. Use the following notes as a reference to setup your display.
•8.4”, 10.4” and 12.1” monitors: The native resolution of the LCD panel is 800 X 600; Recommended
resolution is 800 X 600 @ 60 KHZ
•14.1” and 15” monitors: The native resolution of the LCD panel is 1024 X 768; Recommended resolution is
1024 X 768@ 60 KHZ
•17” and 19” monitors: The native resolution of the LCD panel is 1280 X 1024; Recommended resolution is
1280 X 1024 @ 60 KHZ or 1024 X 768 @ 60 Hz.
•24” Monitors: The native resolution of the LCD panel is 1920 x 1200; Recommended resolution is 1920 x
1200 @ 60 or 75 Hz.
