SCREEN ADJUSTMENTS
The screen adjustments described in this manual are designed to set image position and minimize
ickerorblurfortheparticularcomputerinuse.
The monitor is designed to provide the best performance at resolution of 1920 × 1080, but can not
provide the best at resolutions of less than 1920 × 1080 because the picture is automatically stretched
totthefullscreen.Itisrecommendedtooperateatresolutionof1920×1080innormaluse.
Displayed text or lines will be blurred or irregular in thickness when the picture is stretched due to
the screen enlargement process.
It is preferable to adjust the image position and frequency with the monitor controls, rather than
the computer software or utilities.
Perform adjustments after a warm-up period of at least thirty minutes.
Additional adjustments may be required after the Auto Image Adjust depending on the resolution
or signal timing.
The Auto Image Adjust may not work correctly when displaying the picture other than the screen
adjustment pattern. In this case, manual adjustments are required.
There are two ways to adjust the screen. One way is automatic adjustment for Position, Clock and
Phase. The other way is performing each adjustment manually.
PerformtheAutoImageAdjustrstwhenthemonitorisconnectedtoanewcomputer,orresolution
