Adjusting the Monitor
Picture Optimisation
The easiest way to obtain an optimal picture is by using the
Auto
button. This
only works reliably if the graphics adaptor is set to use one of the monitor’s
factory modes (see
Table 1
in the previous chapter) and if you are displaying an
appropriate full-screen test pattern.
Windows users should run the adjustment software (Auto.exe) from the Utilities
floppy disk to display the correct test pattern. Press the
Auto
button when the test
is pattern displayed. You can quit Auto.exe by clicking the left mouse button once
and clicking on
Exit
.
Test patterns for other operating systems, in TIFF and JPEG file formats, are also
available from the
File Downloads
section of Mitsubishi Electric Australia’s web
site at
www.mitsubishi-electric.com.au
. Follow the link to the TFT LCD
monitors page and download a pattern with the resolution that you need. Display
the test pattern at its actual size (100% zoom), preferably at full screen and then
press the monitor’s
Auto
button.
The monitor will remember your settings and use them whenever you turn the
monitor on. Note that you may need to readjust the monitor if it is connected to a
different computer or if the computer’s graphics adaptor card is replaced.
If you are still not satisfied with the result, you can enhance the image by using
the monitor’s manual adjustment functions.
Manual Picture Adjustment
Adjustments to the displayed image and audio volume are made using the
On-Screen Display (OSD), and the buttons on the front of the monitor.
The user’s controls include Power, AUTO, increase (
), decrease (
), Exit and
Enter.
