Chapter 7. Troubleshooting
Checkpoints
Installation issue (PC mode)
The screen keeps switching on and off. Check the cable connection between the product and PC, and ensure the connection is secure.
Blank spaces are found on all four sides of the screen
when an HDMI or HDMI-DVI cable is connected to the
product and PC.
The blank spaces found on the screen have nothing to do with the product.
Blank spaces on the screen are caused by the PC or graphics card. To resolve the problem, adjust the screen size in
the HDMI or DVI settings for the graphics card.
If the graphics card settings menu does not have an option to adjust the screen size, update the graphics card driver
to the latest version.
(Please contact the graphics card or computer manufacturer for further details about how to adjust the screen
settings.)
PC is shown in Source when a PC is not connected. PC is always shown in Source irrespective of whether or not a PC is connected.

prevention
Optimum picture quality
• Due to the nature of the manufacturing of this product, approximately 1 pixel per
million (1ppm) may be brighter or darker on the panel. This does not affect product
performance.
‒ The number of sub-pixels by panel type: 6,220,800
• Run Auto Adjustment to improve the picture quality. If noise is still found even after
auto adjustment, adjust Coarse or Fine.
• Leaving the screen xed 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 will not be using the
product for an extended period of time.
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 xed 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.
Afterimage burn-in should not occur when an LCD panel is operating in proper
conditions.
