Note
• Selecting "3D" will enable "Signal Format", "Left/
Right Swap", and "H Parallax".
• Fixed at "2D" during PbyP display.
Signal Format SIMUL
TOP AND BOTTOM
SIDE BY SIDE
LINE BY LINE
LEVEL B
Sets the signal format in 3D mode.
• "SIMUL"
Inputs left-eye signals from SDI 1 and right-
eye signals from SDI 2.
When using one screen:
This can only be set when "SDI 1" has been
selected in the input port menu.
During PinP:
This can only be set when "SDI 1" has been
selected in the "Large Window" for PinP
settings and when something other than "SDI
1" has been selected in the "Small Window".
• "TOP AND BOTTOM"
Inputs TOP AND BOTTOM signals.
• "SIDE BY SIDE"
Inputs SIDE BY SIDE signals.
• "LINE BY LINE"
Inputs LINE BY LINE signals. During PinP, if
the input signal is DisplayPort, HDMI, or DVI,
then it is xed at "LINE BY LINE".
• "LEVEL B"
This can only be set when "SDI 1" or "SDI 2"
has been selected in the input port menu. The
SIMUL method signal is input to SDI 1 or SDI

●Color Adjustment
Function Setting Description
Active Window PbyP Left Window /
Right Window
Select which window to adjust settings when using dual screen
display (PbyP or PinP). Disabled during single screen display.
Note
• For dual screen display (PbyP or PinP), color adjustment can be
performed for each screen selected in "Active Window".
PinP Large Window /
Small Window
Single All
Backlight 0 to 100 Adjust screen brightness by changing the brightness of the backlight
(light source from the LCD back panel).
Note
• For dual screen display (PbyP or PinP), settings are applied to
"Left Window" / "Large Window".
• The backlight is disabled when the right window or small window
is selected during PbyP or PinP.
Brightness 0 to 100 Adjust the brightness of black.
Contrast 0 to 100 Contrast can be adjusted.
Adjust the brightness of the screen by changing the video signal
level.
Temperature Native / 6500K / 9300K /
User
Adjust the color temperature. The color temperature is normally
used to express the hue of "White" and / or "Black" with a numerical
value. The value is expressed in degrees "K" (Kelvin). The screen
becomes reddish at low color temperatures and bluish at high color
temperatures, similar to the temperatures of a ame.
Note
• Select "Native" to display the original colors of the LCD panel.
• "Gain" allows you to perform more advanced adjustment. When
gain is changed, "Temperature" is changed to "User".
• The gain preset values are set for each color temperature setting
value.
Gamma 1.8 / 2.0 / 2.2 / 2.4 / 2.6 /
DICOM / HLG / PQ
Adjust the gamma. While the brightness of the monitor varies
depending on the video level of the input signal, the variation rate
is not proportional to the input signal. Maintaining the balance
between the input signal and brightness of the monitor is referred to
as "Gamma correction".
Color Gamut Native / sRGB / BT.2020 Set the color reproduction area (color gamut). The color gamut is
the range of colors that can be represented. Multiple standards are
dened.
Note
• Select "Native" to display the original color gamut of the LCD panel.
Hue -100 to 100 Adjust the hue.
Saturation -100 to 100 Adjust the color saturation.
Gain 0 to 255 The brightness of each color component (red, green, and blue) is
called "gain". The hue of "white" can be changed by adjusting the
gain.

setting for gradation collapse or other occurrences
where the screen is displayed incorrectly because of a
problem with the input signal.
Input Range (When input signal is DisplayPort or
HDMI.)
Auto / Full / Limited
(When input signal is SDI or DVI.)
Full / Limited
Depending on the video reproduction device, there
may be a restriction on black and white video signal
levels output to the monitor. This kind of signal is called
"Limited range". On the other hand, unlimited signals
are called "Full range".
• "Auto"
Input signal brightness range is automatically
judged and is displayed appropriately
(recommended setting). Depending on the video
reproduction device, Limited range and Full range
may not be able to be judged by the monitor. In
such a case, selecting "Full" or "Limited" will allow
it to be displayed appropriately.
• "Full"
To be selected in case of Full range signals.
Appropriate display can be obtained when this
is selected, in case both blacks and whites are
corrupted.
• "Limited"
To be selected in case of Limited range signals.
When this is selected, the output signal range is
expanded from 0 to 255 to obtain an appropriate
display when black is pale and white is dull.
*1 Disabled when input signal is DVI.

Chapter 3Chapter Troubleshooting
Chapter 3 Troubleshooting
3-1. No Picture Displayed
Problem Possible cause and remedy
1. No picture. • Check whether the power cord is connected properly.
• Check whether the DC OUT terminal and the DC IN terminal
are connected properly.
• Turn on the power switch.
• Check whether the main power indicator of the AC adapter is on.
• Turn o󰀨 the power and then turn it on again.
2. The message below appears. These messages appear when the signal is not input correctly
even though the monitor is functioning properly.
• This message appears when no signal is
input.
Example:
• The message shown on the left may appear, because some
devices to be connected do not output the signal immediately
after power-on.
• Check whether the device to be connected is turned on.
• Check whether the signal cable is connected properly.
• Turn o󰀨 the power and then turn it on again.
• Change the setting for "Auto Input Detection" under
"Advanced Setting" in the "Preferences" menu to "O󰀨" and
then manually switch the input signals (see “Auto Input
Detection*1” (page 13)).
• This message indicates that the input signal
is outside the specied frequency range.
Example:
• Check whether the device to be connected is congured to
meet the resolution and vertical scan frequency requirements
of the monitor.
• Reboot the device to be connected.

18 Chapter 3Chapter Troubleshooting
3-2. Imaging Problems
Problem Possible cause and remedy
1. The screen is too bright or too dark. • Use "Brightness" or "Backlight" in the Setting menu to adjust it.
2. Text is blurred • Check whether the computer is congured to meet the
resolution and vertical scan frequency requirements of
the monitor (see "Displayable Input Signals" in the User's
Manual).
3. Afterimages appear • Afterimages are particular to LCD monitors. Avoid displaying
the same image for a long time.
• Use the screen saver or power saving function to avoid
displaying the same image for extended periods of time.
• An afterimage may appear even after a short time period has
elapsed depending on the displayed image. If this occurs,
changing the image or leaving the power o󰀨 for a few hours
may solve the problem.
4. Green, red, blue, white dots or dark dots
remain on the screen
• This is due to LCD panel characteristics and not a
malfunction.
5. The screen suddenly went black. / The
screen does not become brighter after
increasing the "Backlight" value in the
Settings menu.
• This product is equipped with a heat dissipation fan. If the fan
is not operating properly, screen brightness can be limited in
order to lower the internal temperature. In this case, please
make sure that the fan is operating properly.
6. 3D images are not shown • Switch to 3D mode.
• Change the signal format.
• Switch the displays of the left-eye signal and the right-eye
signal.
• In SIMUL mode, make sure that the left-eye image signal and
the right-eye image signal are input correctly.
7. The 3D image has insu󰀩cient three-
dimensionality
• Use "H Parallax" in the Setting menu to adjust it.
3-3. Other Problems
Problem Possible cause and remedy
1. The Setting menu does not appear. • Make sure the lock function is not set to "On."
(See “1-5. Locking Control Buttons” (page 6).)
2. The message below appears. This will be displayed when the signal is not displaying properly.
• This will be displayed when a 6-bit (64
gradient) signal is being input.
Example:
• Turn o󰀨 the power to the connected device and this product
and then turn on the power again.
• Check the settings on the connected device.
