Caution for use of the product for many hours
In the case that you use the monitor for many hours, we recommend that you set “NO SYNC ACTION” in “SYNC FUNCTION” to
“P.SAVE” in MAIN MENU. This will reduce power consumption and relieve strain on the monitor. (☞page 17) Also, we recommend that
you use "LCD SAVER" function to reduce the burden on the LCD panel. (☞page 18)
Caution for use of the product in the high temperature
Do not use the product in places of high temperature; otherwise, parts of this product or the LCD panel may be damaged. This product is
equipped with a temperature sensor to give warning if the temperature becomes too high. If the temperature exceeds the range of normal
use, “TEMP. OVER” is displayed, and the power is turned off automatically if the temperature becomes any higher. In this case, move the
product to a place of low temperature to let it cool down.
Maintenance
LCD panel
To avoid irreparable change in appearance of the LCD panel such
as uneven color, discoloration, scratches, be careful about the
following:
●Do not paste or stick anything using any glues or adhesive
tapes.
●Do not write anything on the LCD panel.
●Do not strike the LCD panel with a hard object.
●Avoid condensation on the LCD panel.
●Do not wipe the LCD panel with any liquid such as water. In
addition, wiping the LCD panel with water-diluted neutral
detergent or solvent such as alcohol, thinner, or benzine may
affect the anti-reflection treatment of the LCD panel.
●Do not wipe the LCD panel forcefully.
Wipe stains off the LCD panel with a soft cloth.
Ventilation openings
Use a vacuum cleaner to get rid of the dust around the intakes (all
the openings). If a vacuum cleaner is not available, use a cloth
and wipe it off. Leaving the dust around the intakes may prevent
proper temperature control and cause damage to the product.
Cabinet
To avoid the deterioration or damages of the cabinet such as its
paint’s peeling away, be careful about the following:
●Do not wipe the cabinet using solvent such as alcohol, thinner,
or benzine.
●Do not expose the cabinet to any volatile substance such as
insecticides.
●Do not allow any rubber or plastic in contact for a long time.
●Do not wipe the cabinet forcefully.
Wipe stains off the cabinet with a soft cloth. If the cabinet gets
heavily stained, wipe it with a soft cloth soaked in water-diluted
neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe with a soft dry cloth.
Operating Precautions
The LCD panel and backlight have life expectancy. Due to the basic characteristics of the LCD panel, an afterimage or uneven display may
occur. It is recommended that you change images occasionally, activate the power saving function, or often turn off the power to reduce
the load on the LCD panel. Continuous operations of the LCD panel may accelerate the deterioration.

Note for connections
• Before making any connections, turn off all the equipment.
• Use a cord whose plugs correctly match the terminals on this monitor
and the equipment.
• Plugs should be firmly inserted; poor connections could cause noise.
• When unplugging a cord, be sure to grasp its plug and pull it out.
• DO NOT connect the power cord until all connections are complete.
• Refer also to the user manual of each piece of equipment.

Input terminal for the DVI-D signal compatible with HDCP.
●When the picture is not displayed correctly, change the setting
of “DVI INPUT SEL.” (☞ page 21)
9Screw holes for external battery attachment
Attach external battery for DC power supply by using 2 screw
holes. Choose the appropriate screw holes from 1, 2 or 3
according to the type of external battery. (Depending on the
battery type.)
Use the Anton Bauer Dionic 90 (mount: QR DXC-M3A) external battery.
Caution: Do not use the external battery for DC 24 V power supply.
Use only the battery specified above. If a heavy battery
is used, it may fall off depending on the way the
monitor is used.
pDC switch
Turns the DC power on or off.
●You need to press button (☞ion page 9) on the front

When using DC 12 V power (maximum DC 17 V), check the DC IN
terminal pin signal, and use the correct polarity (☞page 30). If
the polarity is reversed, this could cause a fire or personal injury.
●While using both the AC and DC power supply, AC power
supply is preferentially used. If the AC power supply is cut off
(for example,when turning off the POWER switch), the power
supply automatically switches to the DC power supply.
● Use a DC power supply with the LPS (Limited Power Sources) function.
wAC IN terminal
AC power input connector. Connect the provided AC power cord
to an AC outlet.
●Attach the provided power cord holder to prevent accidental
disconnection of the AC power cord. (☞page 31)
