Troubleshooting and Useful Hints
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any problems using this product, make sure that your monitor
is properly installed. Please refer to chapter 4 of this manual for the
installation guide. The answers to some common questions follow:
9 There is some noise or flickering on the screen or the picture is unstable.
Check:
‰
Signal cable connector pins. If there are bent or missing pins,
consult your place of purchase.
‰
Graphics card. Check that the drivers and settings are correct.
‰
The set up of the monitor. If you are using Windows re-run the test
pattern program (Auto.exe) that is on the floppy disk supplied with
the monitor and press the monitor’s AUTO button.
‰
This may be caused by non-standard signal frequencies from the
VGA card. It is not a defect and can be improved by manually
adjusting the Clock Phase and Pixel Frequency in the image menu.
‰
Scanning frequency. Change the settings of your graphics card to
one of the Supported Graphics Signals and Timings specified on
page 19 and re-align the monitor.
9 The image appears grainy or edges of objects appear jagged. Check:
‰
The resolution of the graphics card. Graphics resolutions below
1280 x 1024 will appear as full screen images, but they are not
optimal. Increase the resolution to 1280 x 1024 pixels.
9 I can't find the DV180 on the Windows 95, 98 or 2000 monitor lists.
‰
You need to update the Windows setup information file for your
DV180. This is on the diskette that was supplied with your monitor.
