English-17 English NORMAL: Displays the aspect ratio the same as it is sent from the source. FULL: Fills entire screen. WIDE: Expands a 16:9 letter box signal to fill entire screen. ZOOM (DYNAMIC): Expands a 4:3 pictures to fill the entire screen with non-linearity. Some of the outside image area will be cut off due to expansion. ZOOM The image can be expanded beyond the active display area. The image which is outside of active display area is not shown. ZOOM ZOOM Using Power Management The LCD monitor follows the VESA approved DPM Power Management function. The power management function is an energy saving function that automatically reduces the power consumption of the display when the keyboard or the mouse has not been used for a fixed period. The power management feature on your new display has been set to the “ON” mode. This allows your display to enter a Power Saving Mode when no signal is applied. This could potentially increase the life and decrease the power consumption of the display. STANDBY mode is used when the display is connected to an RS-232C cable or when using the INPUT DETECT function. ECO STANDBY uses less power, but the RS-232C and INPUT DETECT functions are not available. NOTE:Depending on the PC and video card used, this function may not operate. Selecting a video source To view a video source: Use the input button to set [VIDEO].
