1. Connect all cables to the computer first. This would include the VGA cable and the optional
RS 232 serial touch screen connection.
2. After connecting the cables between the LCD monitor and the computer, plug the customer
su12VDC source to the 12V connection on the rear (Chassis model only) . All other
models have a integrated 115/220VAC power supply.
3. Once the +12V or the 115/220VAC connection is made, the display is active.
4. If your computer was off, turn on your computer.
5. Your display should now operate as a normal computer display showing your windows or
whatever video is being sent to the flat panel.
Note:
If for any reason the display goes blank and gives an “out of Range” or “No Input Signal”,
your computer or video source is putting out a signal that is out of range of the LCD’s video
board. If this happens, reboot the computer or video source and make sure you are inputting the
correct signal. If the display doesn’t work properly, it may be because:
(a) The resolution is to high or low for the LCD.
(b) The refresh rate is set to high. Refresh on an LCD is different than a CRT. Set the refresh to
60Hz. CRT’s need a high refresh rate to avoid flicker. The refresh rate has no impact on
LCD’s.
(c) The power source is incorrect.
(d)The unit is malfunctioning. If you believe this to be true, disconnect the video cable from the
rear of the LCD and connect to a known good computer CRT display. If the computer display is
working satisfactory and the video is within the appropriate range, then contact Vartech
Customer service for a RMA number.
