12.3 Preset Timing Modes
 zThis product can be set to only one resolution for each screen size to obtain the optimum picture 
quality due to the nature of the panel. Using a resolution other than th\
e specified resolution may 
degrade the picture quality. To avoid this, it is recommended that you select the optimum 
resolution specified for your monitor.
zCheck the frequency when you exchange a CDT monitor (connected to a PC) for an LCD monitor. 
If the LCD monitor does not support 85Hz, change the vertical frequency to 60Hz using the CDT 
monitor before you exchange it with the LCD monitor.
 
The screen will automatically be adjusted if a signal that belongs to the following standard signal modes is 
transmitted from your PC. If the signal transmitted from the PC does not belong to the standard signal 
modes, the screen may be blank with the power LED on. In such a case, change the settings according 
to the following table by referring to the graphics card user manual.

Optimum Picture Quality and Afterimage Burn-in Prevention
Optimum Picture Quality
zTo enjoy the optimum picture quality, go to Control Panel on your PC and adjust the resolution and 
refresh rate as follows. The picture quality of TFT-LEDs may degrade if the optimum resolution is not 
selected.
†Resolution: 1920 X 1080
†Vertical frequency (refresh rate): 56 ~ 75 Hz
zDue to the nature of the manufacturing of this product, approximately 1 pixel per million (1ppm) may 
be brighter or darker on the LED panel. This does not affect product performance.
†The number of sub-pixels by LED panel type: ME65B, ME75B: 6,220,800
zRun " Auto Adjustment " to improve the picture quality. If noise is still found even after auto 
adjustment, adjust  Coarse or Fine .
zLeaving the screen fixed on a stationary image for an extended period of time may cause afterimage 
burn-in or defective pixels.
†Activate power-saving mode or  a dynamic screen saver if you w ill not be using the product for 
an extended period of time.
zUnlike CDT monitors, TFT-LED monitors (due to the nature of the panel) can be set to only one 
resolution to obtain the optimum picture quality. Therefore, setting a resolution other than the 
specified resolution may degrade the picture quality. To avoid this, it is recommended that you select 
the optimum resolution specified for your monitor.

Prevention of Afterimage Burn-in
What is afterimage burn-in?
Afterimage burn-in should not occur when the LCD panel is operating normally. Normal operation refers 
to a continuously changing video pattern. If the LCD panel displays a fixed pattern for an extended period 
of time (more than 12 hours), a slight voltage difference may occur between the electrodes in pixels that 
control the liquid crystals. 
Such a voltage difference between electrodes increases with time and makes the liquid crystals thinner. 
When this occurs, a previous image can remain on the screen when the pattern changes. To prevent this, 
the accumulated voltage difference should be reduced.

zPowering Off, Screen Saver and Power Saving Mode
†Power off the product for 2 hours after using it for 12 hours.
†Go to Display Properties > Power Supply on your PC and set the product to power off as 
required.
†Using a screen saver is recommended. 
It is best to use a single-color or moving-image screen saver.
zRegular Color Change
 Use 2 colors
Switch between 2 colors every 30 minutes as shown above.
 
zAvoid combinations of a text color and background color of contrasting brightness.
Avoid using grey as it may contribute to afterimage burn-in.
Avoid using colors of contrasting brightness (black and white; grey).
zRegular Text Color Change
†Use bright colors of similar brightness.
Interval: Change text color and background color every 30 minutes
†Move and change text every 30 minutes as shown below.
†Regularly display a moving image along with a logo.
Interval: Display a moving image along with a logo for 60 seconds after using for 4 hours.
†The best way to protect the product from afterimage burn-in is switching the power off or 
setting the PC or system to run a screen saver when not in use. Also, Warranty service may be 
limited depending on instruction guide.

Terminology
Dot Pitch
The product and screen consist of red, green and blue dots. A shorter distance between the dots 
produces a higher resolution. Dot pitch refers to the distance between the shortest distance between 
dots of the same color. Dot pitch is measured in millimeters.
Vertical Frequency
The product displays a single image many times per second (like a fluorescent light that flickers) to 
display an image for a viewer to see. The rate of a single image being displayed repeatedly per second 
is called vertical frequency or refresh rate. Vertical frequency is measured in Hz.
E.g. 60Hz refers to a single image be ing displayed 60 times in one second.
Horizontal Frequency
The time required to scan a single line from the left to the right side of the screen is called a horizontal 
cycle. The reciprocal number of a horizontal cycle is called horizontal frequency. Horizontal frequency 
is measured in kHz.
Non-interlace Mode and Interlace Mode
Non-interlace mode (progressive scan) displays a horizontal line from the top to the bottom of a 
screen progressively. Interlace mode displays the odd number lines first and the even number lines 
next. Non-interlace mode is mainly used in monitors as it produces screen clarity and interlace mode 
is mainly used in TVs.
Plug & Play
Plug & Play is a function that allows the automatic exchange of information between a monitor and PC 
to produce an optimum display environment. The product uses VESA DDC (international standard) to 
execute Plug & Play.
Resolution
Resolution is the number of horizontal dots (pixels) and vertical dots (pixels) that form a screen. It 
represents the level of display detail. A higher resolution enables more data to be displayed on the 
screen and is useful to perform multiple tasks simultaneously.
E.g. A resolution of 1920 X 1080 consists of 1,920  horizontal pixels (horizontal resolution) and 1,080 
vertical pixels (vertical resolution).

Multiple Display Control (MDC)
MDC (Multiple Display Control) is an application that allows multiple display devices to be controlled 
simultaneously using a PC. Communication between a PC and monitor takes place using RS232C 
(serial data transmission) and RJ45 (LAN) cables.
DVD(Digital Versatile Disc)
DVD refers to a CD-sized mass storage disk where you can save multimedia (audio, video or game) 
applications using MPEG-2 video compression technology.
HDMI(High Definition Multimedia Interface)
It is an interface that can be connected to a digital audio source as well as a high-definition video 
source by using a single cable without compression.
Component ports (green, blue and red)
The component ports, which identify, transmit and receive contrast signals, provide superior picture 
quality to any other video connection methods.
Stereo
Stereo refers to a technology that outputs audio signals via two channels. It delivers 3D sound 
experience through separate left and right audio channels over two speakers.
Source
Input source refers to a video source device connected to the product such as a camcorder or video 
or DVD player.
480i / 480p / 720p / 1080i / 1080p
Each of the scanning rates above refers to the number of effective scanning lines that decides the 
screen resolution. The scanning rate may be indicated in i (interlaced) or p (progressive), depending 
on the scanning method.
- Scanning
Scanning refers to a process of sending pixels that form an image progressively. A larger number of 
pixels will deliver a clearer and more vivid picture.
- Progressive
In progressive scan mode, all lines of pixels are scanned one by one (progressively) on the screen. 
- Interlaced
In interlaced scan mode, every other line of pixels is scanned from top to bottom first and then the 
remaining lines of pixels (that were not scanned) are scanned.
