Picture quality of HD video

is poor. To enjoy HD images from external equipment, you are required to

set up HDMI connection or component connection.

If the video source is not of HD quality, HD images cannot be

displayed. Check that the video source you are viewing provides

HD images.

The HD cable/satellite set-top box may need to be configured to

output HD images via cable/satellite.

The Monitor sometimes

makes a cracking sound. This is not a malfunction. This happens when the cabinet slightly

expands and contracts according to change in temperature. This

does not affect the Monitor's performance.

cable.

When audio is not output from external equipment connected to the

PC IN or HDMI IN 2 terminal, check the "Audio Select" setting.

Page 7-2

Even when external equipment is connected using an HDMI-

certified cable, an audio cable connection may be required

depending on the type of equipment and the media being played

back. In this case, in addition to connecting an HDMI-certified

cable to the HDMI IN 2 terminal, connect a Ø 3.5 mm stereo

minijack cable to the AUDIO IN terminal and set "Audio Select" to

"HDMI+Analog".

Page 7-2

When connecting a PC via an HDMI-certified cable, check the

following:

- Is the audio output of the PC configured correctly? Check the

audio output settings and output audio format in Sound Properties

on the PC.

The audio formats compatible with this Monitor are PCM and Dolby

Digital. With other formats, audio cannot be output.

- Depending on the board, only video signals may be output. In this

case, in addition to connecting an HDMI-certified cable to the HDMI

IN 2 terminal, connect a Ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable to the

AUDIO IN terminal and set "Audio Select" to "HDMI+Analog".

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments

When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails

or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the

temperature returns to normal.

Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to

direct sunlight or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the front panel to

malfunction.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991

51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA

02110-1301, USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing

it is not allowed.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By

contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and

change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License

applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors

commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser

General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses

are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and

charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you

can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do

these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to

ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you

distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the

recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the

source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which

gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.

ENG 13-4

Software License

Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that

there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed

on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems

introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger

that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the

program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for

everyone's free use or not licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright

holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program",

below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the

Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or

a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.

(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is

addressed as "you".

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are

outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program

is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been

made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in

any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate

to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License

along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer

warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based

on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1

above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files

and the date of any change.

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is

derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third

parties under the terms of this License.

c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when

started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an

announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or

else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these

conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is

interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is

not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are

not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in

themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them

as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work

based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose

permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part

regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by

you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective

works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a

work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the

other work under the scope of this License.

ENG 13-5

Software License

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code

or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the

following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be

distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software

interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge

no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable

copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above

on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source

code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the

program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For

an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains,

plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and

installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not

include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major

components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs,

unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated

place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as

distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along

with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided

under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is

void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have

received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long

as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else

grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are

prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the

Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so,

and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on

it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient

automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program

subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients'

exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third

parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other

reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order,

agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from

the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations

under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute

the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the

Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you

could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the

balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other

circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims

or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity

of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many

people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that

system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he

or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that

choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of

this License.

ENG 13-6

Software License

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by

copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may

add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is

permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the

limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public

License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may

differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of

this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and

conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If

the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever

published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution

conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted

by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make

exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all

derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY

FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN

OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES

PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED

OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF

MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO

THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE

PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,

REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING

WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR

REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,

INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING

OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU

OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER

PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE

POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, the

best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and change

under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the start of each

source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the

"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

one line to give the program's name and an idea of what it does.

name of author

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU

General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the

License, or (at your option) any later version.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without

even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

See the GNU General Public License for more details.

ENG 13-7

Software License

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not,

write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301,

USA.

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an interactive

mode:

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author

Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is free

software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.

The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate parts of the General

Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be called something other than `show w' and

`show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a

"copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program `Gnomovision' (which makes

passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

signature of Ty Coon, 1 April 1989

Ty Coon, President of Vice

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If

your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary

applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public

License instead of this License.
