and you block all X-rated movies. The rating categories are also grouped so that clicking one category blocks
all the categories a parent would block along with it. For example, if you block the PG-13 category, then R, NC-
17 and X will automatically be blocked also.

Dynamic Networks.
Some networks require a Static IP address. If your network requires a Static IP address, you must
enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually on your product Cable
Setup Screen when you set up the network connection. To get the IP address, subnet mask,
gateway, and DNS values, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
If you have a Windows computer, you can also get these values through your computer.

Prevention of Afterimage Burn-in
What is afterimage burn-in?
Afterimage burn-in should not occur when the panel is operating normally. Normal operation
refers to a continuously changing video pattern. If the panel displays a fixed pattern for an
extended period of time 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.
This information is a guide to prevent afterimage burn-in. Viewing a fixed screen
for an extended period of time may cause afterimage burn-in. This problem is not
included in warranty.
Recommended prevention practices
Viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time may cause afterimage burn-ins or
smudges. Turn off the product when it is not used for a long time, activate the Power Saving
mode, or run a moving screen saver.
•Change the colors regularly.

Terminology
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.
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.
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
being 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.
Source____ Input source refers to
a video source device connected to
the product such as a camcorder or
video or DVD player.
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.
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).
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.
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.
