Troubleshooting tips

Issue

Possible Cause

No picture - red LED ON

LED on continuously indicates no (compatible) video is available
on currently selected source;

Confirm that the correct video input is selected

Check that the video signal cable is properly connected to the
display. Test cable with ‘known good‘ equipment

Check display settings of the video source - ensure the
resolution is supported by the display

Ensure brightness is turned up to a suitable level

No picture - red LED OFF

Make sure power is connected to an appropriate DC voltage
source, and that the fuse is fitted or breaker is switched on. After
pressing power button, the red LED should blink as monitor
starts up, followed by momentary display of the logo on the
screen.

Image persistence

Image persistence occurs when a ghost of an image remains
on the screen after the screen image has been changed. Unlike
a CRT monitor, an LCD monitor’s image persistence is not
permanent. To erase an image ghost, turn the monitor off for
several hours. To avoid this condition, do not leave the monitor
displaying the same image unnecessarily, for an extended
period of time

Picture quality & image

Check for video cable condition; is shield intact, and does cable
not exceed maximum distance for video standard

Check the signal source is outputting a compatible resolution at
a supported frequency

Monitor may be receiving incorrect/bad sync signals from
source

Video compromised by interference from other equipment

Supply voltage has dropped below 10V. Will restore at >11V

Unit has been subject to excessively hot direct sunlight for an
extended period and/or unit enclosure is too hot. Automatic

video source to output correct resolution
