Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor

Publication 6185-5.2

The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor is configured at the factory, but typically
requires initial adjustments to ensure the best screen image. Rockwell
Automation provides the Flat Panel Monitor Adjustment Utility with
each flat panel monitor to assist you in adjusting the monitor settings.

Important:

Flat panel monitors are fixed resolution devices and work
best when set at their native resolution. If you switch the
resolution of this monitor from 1280 x 1024 resolution, the
display may look distorted.

Common Flat Panel Video Adjustments

The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor provides controls to adjust the following
aspects of the monitor video display:

Horizontal and vertical position

Horizontal size of the display

Clock phase

Brightness and contrast

It is important that you make initial adjustments to these settings to
ensure that the screen image on the flat panel monitor is set up correctly.

If the horizontal or vertical position of the display is not adjusted
correctly, one edge of the screen image extends beyond the side of the
monitor screen.

The horizontal size and clock phase adjustments are especially important
for flat panel monitors. If the horizontal size setting is not properly
adjusted, the screen image contains vertical shaded bars. If the clock
phase setting is not properly adjusted, the screen image is “jittery.”
