This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
radio frequency interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy.
If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, it may
cause interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guara ntee that interference will no t occur in a pa rticular
installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or
televi sion recepti on (this can be determi ned by turni ng the
equipment off and on), the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from which the receiver is connected to.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television
technician for help.

CAUTION
To comply with the limits for a FCC Class B computing device,
always use the shielded signal cord and shielded power cord
supplied with this unit.
CAUTION TO THE USER
The Federal Communications Commission warns the user that
changes or modifications to the unit not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.

What is DVI ? What is DFP?
Digi tal Video Interface (DVI) and D igital Flat Panel (DFP) are
new ind ustry standa rd di gital di sp lay signal ing p rotoc ol
based on Sil icon Image’s TMDS techno logy. DVI and DFP
are d ifferentia ted by different connectors ea ch has ada pted.
The LCD monitor DVI connector is comp ati ble to DFP by
usi ng the o ptio nal adap ter. Fo r mo re i nformati on o n DVI,
vi sit ww w.ddwg.org. Fo r more i nfo rma ti on on DFP , visit
the VESA® ’s w eb site, www.vesa.org.
Why do the letters and icons look soft on the edges when
I change to resolutions other than the native/optimum
resolution of the panel?
Unlike traditio nal CRT mo nitors, a LCD monitor has a native
(physical ) reso lution which pixels are produced by cells in
fixed posi tions. When a resolutio n different than the native
resol uti o n i s c ho sen, the L CD moni to r uses va ri o us
interp olation methods to achieve the pseudo resolutio n. To
ac hieve the op timum vi ewing quality, c hoosing the nati ve
reso lution of the panel, 1280 x 1024, is recommended.
Can I use this display with Linux , MacTMOS and other
operating syste ms?
Yes. If a DVI or DFP co nnec tio n is not availa ble, then use
25
the VGA i nput. For some computers a n app ropri ate ca ble
or a dapter may be requi red.
How do I change the resolution the monitor displays?
The resol ution displ ayed o n a mo nitor is co ntroll ed by the
vid eo ca rd d i sp la y d ri ver a nd op era ti ng system. The
monitor simply respo nds to the si gnal it receives from the
vi deo card and is no t ab le to c hange the reso luti on on i ts
ow n. Mo st vi deo ca rd ma nufa cturers p ro vid e so ftwa re

resolutions for different ap plic atio ns. Plea se c onsult your
video card manual or deal er for more i nformation.
How do I change the frequency or refresh rate the
monitor uses? (Analog D-sub 15-pin Input)
The refresh rate is controlled by the video card. Mo st video
cards p rovi de a software utility or hardware DIP sw itches
tha t al lo ws you to change the freq uenc y used for eac h
resolution. For LCD monitors, there is no benefit to i ncrease
the refresh rate because there is no fli cker with this type of
monitor. In fa ct, 60Hz is the recommended refresh rate for
LCD monito rs.

How do I change the frequency or refresh rate the
