LED on monitor is not litPower button should be in the ON position and power cord should be connec\ ted. Image PersistencePlease be aware that LCD monitors may experience a phenomenon known as “image persistence.” Image 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 con\ stant 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 movin\ g images and us- ing a moving screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is id\ le or turning off the monitor when not in use. OSD warning OUT OF RANGE is displayed and image is displayed only roughly (pixels are missing) Either signal clock or resolution is too high. Choose one of the supported modes.
