Technical Features

Preset and user modes

When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically
matches the signal to one of the factory preset modes stored in the
monitor’s memory to provide a high quality picture at the center of
the screen. (See Appendix for a list of the factory preset modes.)
For input signals that do not match one of the factory preset modes,
the digital Multiscan technology of this monitor ensures that a
clear picture appears on the screen for any timing in the monitor’s
frequency range (horizontal: 30 – 70 kHz, vertical: 48 – 120 Hz).
If the picture is adjusted, the adjustment data is stored as a user
mode and automatically recalled whenever the same input signal
is received.

Note for Windows users

For Windows users, check your video board manual or the utility
program which comes with your graphic board and select the
highest available refresh rate to maximize monitor performance.

Power saving function

This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by VESA,

E

NERGY

S

TAR, and NUTEK. If the monitor is connected to a

computer or video graphics board that is DPMS (Display Power
Management Signaling) compliant, the monitor will automatically
reduce power consumption in three stages as shown below.

*

“Sleep” and “deep sleep” are power saving modes defined by the
Environmental Protection Agency.

** When your computer enters the “active off” mode, the input signal is

cut and NO INPUT SIGNAL appears on the screen. After 20 seconds,
the monitor enters the power saving mode.

Troubleshooting

Before contacting technical support, refer to this section.

If thin line appears on your screen
(damper wire)

The line you are experiencing on your screen is normal for the
Trinitron monitor and is not a malfunction. This is shadow from
the damper wire used to stabilize the aperture grille and is most
noticeable when the screen’s background is light (usually white).
The aperture grille is the essential element that makes a Trinitron
picture tube unique by allowing more light to reach the screen,
resulting in a brighter, more detailed picture.

On-screen messages

If there is something wrong with the input signal, one of the
following messages appears on the screen. To solve the problem,
see “Trouble symptoms and remedies” on page 14.

The input signal condition
OUT OF SCAN RANGE

indicates that the input signal is not supported by the monitor’s
specifications.

NO INPUT SIGNAL

indicates that no signal is being input to the monitor.
