But the pixels of RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color seem to be bright sometimes or some of black pixels could be seen. This is not from bad quality and you can use it without uneasiness. For example, the number of TFT LCD sub pixels that is contained in this product are 5,292,000. Design and specifications are subject to change without prior notice. Class B Equipment (Information Communication equipment for residential use) This product complies with the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directives for residential use and can be used in all areas including common residential areas. (Class B equipment emits less electromagnetic waves than Class A equipment.) PowerSaver This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. This system saves energy by switching your monitor into a low-power mode when it has not been used for a certain amount of time. The monitor automatically returns to normal operation when you press a key on the keyboard. For energy conservation, turn your monitor OFF when it is not needed, or when leaving it unattended for long periods. The PowerSaver system operates with a VESA DPMS compliant video card installed in your computer. Use a software utility installed on your computer to set up this feature.

Horizontal Frequency The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the left edge of the screen horizontally is called Horizontal Cycle and the inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called Horizontal Frequency. Unit : kHz Vertical Frequency Like a fluorescent lamp, the screen has to repeat the same image many times per second to display an image to the user. The frequency of this repetition is called Vertical Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit : Hz

The closer the dots, the higher the resolution. The distance between two dots of the same color is called the Dot Pitch. Unit : mm Vertical Frequency The screen must be redrawn several times per second in order to create and display an image for the user. The frequency of this repetition per second is called Vertical Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit : Hz Example : If the same light repeats itself 60 times per second, this is regarded as 60 Hz. Horizontal Frequency The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the left edge of the screen horizontally is called Horizontal Cycle. The inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called Horizontal Frequency. Unit : kHz Interlace and Non-Interlace Methods Showing the horizontal lines of the screen from the top to the bottom in order is called the Non- Interlace method while showing odd lines and then even lines in turn is called the Interlace method. The Non-Interlace method is used for the majority of monitors to ensure a clear image. The Interlace method is the same as that used in TVs. Plug & Play This is a function that provides the best quality screen for the user by allowing the computer and the monitor to exchange information automatically. This monitor follows the international standard VESA DDC for the Plug & Play function. Resolution
The number of horizontal and vertical dots used to compose the screen image is called resolution. This number shows the accuracy of the display. High resolution is good for performing multiple tasks as more image information can be shown on the screen. Example : If the resolution is 1680 x 1050 , this means the screen is composed of 1680 horizontal dots (horizontal resolution) and 1050 vertical lines (vertical resolution). For Better Display Adjust computer resolution and screen injection rate (refresh rate) oncomputer as described below to enjoy the best quality of picture. You can have an uneven quality of picture in the screen if the best quality of picture is not provided in TFT-LCD. Resolution : 1680 x 1050 Vertical frequency (refresh rate) : 60 Hz TFT LCD panel manufactured by using advanced semiconductor technology with precision of 1ppm (one millionth) above is used for this product. But the pixels of RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color seem to be bright sometimes or some of black pixels could be seen. This is not from bad quality and you can use it without uneasiness. For example, the number of TFT LCD sub pixels that is contained in this product are 5,292,000. . When you clean the monitor and the panel outside, please apply the recommended small amount of cleaner by using soft and dry cloth and polish it. Let LCD area not to be forced but to be scrubbed out softly. If excessive force is applied, you can have a stain on it. If you are not satisfied with the quality of the picture, you can get better quality of the picture by executing auto adjustment function in display screen that is appeared as window termination button is pressed. If theres still noise after automatic adjustment, use FINE/COARSE adjustment function. If you view a fixed screen for an extended period of time, residual image or blurriness may appear. Change the mode to energy save or set a screensaver to move the picture when you need to be away from the monitor for an extended period of time.
