Image persistence.
Please be aware that LCD Technology may experience a phenomenon known as Image Persistence. Im-
age persistence occurs when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen.
Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being
displayed for a long period of time should be avoided. To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor
for as long as the previous image was displayed. For example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour
and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to erase the image.
NOTE: As with all personal display devices, LaCie recommends displaying moving images and using a
moving screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in
use.
Message OUT OF

(screen is either blank
or shows rough images
only).
Image is displayed only roughly (pixels are missing) and OSD warning OUT OF RANGE is displayed:
Either signal clock or resolution is too high. Choose one of the supported modes.
OSD warning OUT OF RANGE is displayed on a blank screen: Signal frequency is out of range. Choose
one of the supported modes.

Image is unstable or
unfocused.
Signal cable should be completely attached to the computer.
Use the OSD Image Adjust controls to focus and adjust display by increasing or decreasing
the fine total. When the display mode is changed, the OSD Image Adjust settings may need to be read-
justed.
Check the monitor and your display card with respect to compatibility and recommended signal timings.
If your text is garbled, change the video mode to non-interlace and use 60Hz refresh rate.
