OSD Warning Messages

One of the following warning messages may appear on the screen indicating that the monitor is out of synchronization.

This means that the monitor cannot synchronize with the signal that it is receiving from the computer. Either the signal is too high or too low for the monitor to
use.  See

Occasionally, no warning message appears, but the screen is blank. This could also indicate that the monitor is not synchronizing with the computer.
