Identifying Monitor Conditions
Special messages appear on the monitor screen for the following monitor conditions:
•
Monitor Status — When the monitor is powered on or when the input source signal is
changed, a Monitor Status message appears for 5 seconds. The message shows which input
is the current active signal, the status of the auto-switch source setting (On or Off), the default
source signal, the current preset display resolution, and the recommended preset display
resolution.
•
Input Signal Out of Range — Indicates the monitor does not support the video card's input
signal because its resolution or refresh rate are set higher than the monitor supports. Change
your video card settings to a lower resolution or refresh rate. Restart your computer for the
new settings to take effect.
•

the warning message Power Button Lockout appears. If the power button is locked, press
