If your monitor does not display an image, check your cable connections and refer to "Troubleshooting" on
page 16. If you feel difficult to get optimized displayed image, run Auto Configuration (see page 12) and
refer to "Adjusting Your LCD Monitor " on page 9 or "Troubleshooting" on page 16.
Warm-up Time
All LCD monitors need time to become thermally stable whenever you turn on the monitor after letting the
monitor be turned off for a couple of hours. Therefore, to achieve more accurate adjustments for parameters,
allow the LCD monitor to warm (be on) for at least 30 minutes before making any screen adjustments.
