Adjustable rangeYes/No
DefaultNo
Note:You can quickly achieve high-picture quality results by using a signal suited to the
adjustment as the video signal used for adjustment. Conversely, performing
adjustment with a signal unsuited for adjustment may cause adjustment to fail, or
make it impossible to achieve good results even if it succeeds.
Example of the ideal signal for use in adjustment: An image with full size and
resolution, and a vertical stripe signal which inverts between black and white at each
pixel.
*Signals suitable for Auto Sync. • Detailed still image with well-defined contrast
• Image with high luminosity at edges

Detailed explanation
Control lock
Overview
This monitor is equipped with a control lock function to prevent third parties from changing the
operating state. Locked functions cannot be used unless a PIN is input.
PINs can be freely set by the user.
The following types of operation can be locked.
»Menu Display
When locked, MENU buttons on the remote control and monitor are disabled.
»Remote Control
When enabled buttons on the remote control except STANDBY/ON are locked.
»Monitor Buttons
When enabled monitor buttons except STANDBY/ON are locked.
»Power
When locked, the STANDBY/ON button on the remote control and the monitor cannot perform
switching from the operating state to the standby state. It can however, perform switching from the
standby state to the operating state.
»RS-232C
When enabled operation using RS-232C is locked.
Lock state and temporary unlock (Except for RS-232C)
When some functions are locked, you will be prompted to enter PIN if you attempt to use the function. If
you enter the correct PIN, the locks on all locked functions are temporarily unlocked, so you can use the
functions.
Functions which have been temporarily unlocked are locked again under the following conditions.
• The monitor entered standby mode. • Main POWER was turned off.
• PIN was changed. • Lock Items were modified.
Even if functions are temporarily unlocked, the system will ask for a PIN if you try to enter “Control Lock”
from the “Setup” menu. This is to prevent the PIN from being modified while it is temporarily unlocked.
Permanent unlocking (Except for RS-232C)
1) Select “Control Lock” from “Setup” in the menu screen.
2) Select “PIN Clear”, then “Yes” and press ENTER.
Lock state and temporary unlock (RS-232C)
If RS-232C is locked and you sent an RS-232C command, LOCKED will come back as the returned
value.
Only the following commands will work in this state.
»PINPxxxx (“xxxx” is the current PIN.)
Temporarily unlocks the current lock.
Functions which have been temporarily unlocked are locked again under the following conditions.
• The monitor entered standby mode. • Main POWER was turned off.
• PIN was changed. • Lock Items were modified.

»PIN+xxxx (“xxxx” is the current PIN.)
This command temporarily releases current lock.
“+” indicates repeater control for the PINP command. (
 Repeater control)
»PCLRxxxx (“xxxx” is the current PIN.)
It reverts to the state where no PIN has been set.
This is the same as “PIN Clear” under “Control Lock” on the “Setup” menu. (“Permanent unlock-
ing”)
»PCL+xxxx (“xxxx” is the current PIN.)
It reverts to the state where there is no PIN.
“+” indicates repeater control for the PCLR command.
Permanent Control lock deactivation (RS-232C)
When a single monitor is connected, use “PCLRxxxx” (“xxxx” is the current PIN.)
When multiple monitors are connected, use “PCLR+xxxx”.
If the “RS-232C” function is locked, the IDSL and IDLK commands cannot be used.
[Example: 1] Disabling remote control operations
1) From the menu screen, select “Control Lock” from “Setup”.
2) Go to “Lock Items”, then “Remote”, and select “Lock”.
Note: If you exit the menu at this point, the locking will not occur.
3) Go to PIN input, and enter a 4-digit PIN.
4) After PIN input, the set locks will become effective when you close the menu.
[Example: 2] Disabling remote control, monitor buttons and power operations

From the menu screen, select “Control Lock” from “Setup”.
2) Go to “Lock Items”, and set “Remote”, “Buttons” and “Power” to “Lock”.
Note: If you exit the menu at this point, the locking will not occur.
3) Go to PIN input screen and enter 4-digit PIN.
4) After PIN input, the set locks will become effective when you close the menu.
[Example: 3] Disabling menu display (RS-232C single connection)
Note: The returned value assumes that no ID has been set.
