Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a high resolution monitor. It will give you
high resolution performance and convenient reliable operation in a
variety of video operating modes.
The monitor is a 19 inches (18.0 inches viewable ) intelligent,
microprocessor based monitor compatible with most analog RGB (Red,
Green, Blue) display standards, including IBM PC®, PS/2®, Apple®,
Macintosh®, Centris®, Quadra®, and Macintosh II family.
USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports at the back of the monitor are prepared
for the USB cable and hub. You can easily and flexibly connect USB-
designed devices-such as a mouse, keyboard or printer- to the monitor
for true Plug and Play function.
The monitor provides crisp text and vivid color graphics with VGA,
SVGA, XGA, and VESA Ergonomic modes (non-interlaced), and most
Macintosh compatible color video cards when used with the appropriate
adaptor. The monitor's wide compatibility makes it possible to upgrade
video cards or software without purchasing a new monitor.
Digitally controlled auto-scanning is done with the micro-processor for
horizontal scan frequencies between 30 and 96kHz, and vertical scan
frequencies between 50-160Hz. The microprocessor-based intelligence
allows the monitor to operate in each frequency mode with the
precision of a fixed frequency monitor.
This monitor is capable of producing a maximum horizontal resolution of
1600 dots and a maximum vertical resolution of 1200 lines. It is well
suited for CAD work and sophisticated windowing environments.
For low cost of monitor operation, this monitor is certified as meeting
the EPA Energy Star requirements, and utilizes the VESA Display Power
Management Signalling (DPMS) protocol for power saving during non-
use periods.

Making use of USB (Universal Serial Bus)
USB (Universal Serial Bus) is an innovation in connecting your different
desktop peripherals conveniently to your computer. By using the USB,
you will be able to connect your mouse, keyboard, printer, and other
peripherals to your monitor instead of having to connect them to your
computer. This will give you greater flexibility in setting up your system.
USB allows you to connect chain up to 120 devices on a single USB port,
and you can “hot” plug (attach them while the computer is running) or
unplug them while maintaining Plug and Plug auto detection and
configuration. This monitor has an integrated self-powered USB hub,
allowing up to 4 other USB devices to be attached it.
1. Connect the upstream port of the monitor to the downstream port of
the USB compliant PC or another hub using the USB cable (Computer
must have a USB port).
2. Connect the USB compliant peripherals to the downstream ports of
the monitor.

Power Consumption
Energy Saving Design
This monitor complies with the EPA's Energy Star program, which is a
program designed to have manufacturers of computer equipment build
circuitry into their products to reduce power consumption during time of
non-use.
This monitor also goes into its energy saving mode if you exceed the
monitor's operating limits, such as the maximum resolution of 1600x1200
or the frequency refresh rates of 30-96kHz horizontal or 50-160Hz vertical.
When this monitor is used with a Green or EPA Energy Star PC, or a PC
with a screen blanking software following the VESA Display Power
Management Signalling (DPMS) protocol, this monitor can conserve
significant energy by reducing power consumption during periods of non-
use. When the PC goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor will go
into a suspended operation state, indicated by the Power LED light
changing from a green color to an amber color. After an extended period
in the suspended mode, the monitor will then enter a semi-OFF mode to
conserve more energy. In the semi-OFF mode or DPMS OFF mode as we
call it in our specifications, the Power LED will still show an amber color.
When you awaken your PC by hitting a key or moving the mouse, the
monitor will also awaken to its normal operating mode, indicated by the
green Power LED light. By following these conventions, the power
consumption can be reduced to the following levels:

Low Radiation Compliance
(MPR II)
DDC (Display Data
Channel)
Low Radiation Compliance (MPR II) and
DDC (Display Data Channel)
This monitor meets one of the strictest guidelines available today for low
radiation emissions, offering the user extra shielding and an antistatic
screen coating. These guidelines, set forth by a government agency in
Sweden, limit the amount of emission allowed in the Extremely Low
Frequency (ELF) and Very Low Frequency (VLF) electromagnetic range.
DDC is a communication channel over which the monitor automatically
informs the host system (PC) about its capabilities. This monitor has two
DDC function; DDC1 and DDC2B. DDC1 and DDC2B carry out uni-
directional communication between the PC and the monitor. Under these
situations, the PC sends display data to the monitor but not commands to
control the monitor settings.
NOTE
PC must support DDC functions to do this.
If your monitor is displaying a mono chrome image or the wrong resolution,
select the DDC OFF function.
