Never turn off the power nor change the input source during self diagnosis. If possible, try not to interrupt testing.

Connect the USB device to the 

SERVICE

 port on the monitor.

Software Update

.

Follow the instructions on the screen to proceed with update.

Your product will turn itself off and on again automatically after completing update, and then turn off your product.

Remove the power cord from the power outlet and then reconnect the cord after turning off.

 

To perform software update by using a USB device, first format the USB device to FAT32.

 

When updating by a USB device, be sure to use the device whose version of USB 3.0 or lower.

 

When performing update, make sure that only one BIN file (.bin) is saved in the root directory.

 

If the

A USB device is not connected to the 

SERVICE

 port.

 

The files in the connected USB device are not compatible formats.

 

There are no valid update files found in the connected USB device. (There are no update files saved in the memory or the file names are incorrect.)

 

The update will not start if the downloaded software does not match the software installed on the monitor. To check the software for consistency,
