Horizontal Frequency
The time to scan one line connecting the right edge
to the left edge of the screen horizontally is called the
Horizontal Cycle and the inverse number of the Hor-
izontal Cycle is called the Horizontal Frequency.
Unit: kHz
Vertical Frequency
Like a fluorescent lamp, the screen has to repeat the
same image many times per second to display an
image to the user. The frequency of this repetition is
called the Vertical Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit:
Hz

Information
For a Better Display
Adjust the computer resolution and screen injection rate (refresh rate) on the
computer as described below to enjoy the best picture quality. You can have an
uneven picture quality on screen if the best picture quality is not provided for TFT-
LCD.

Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Vertical frequency (refresh rate): 60 Hz
TFT-LCD panels manufactured by using advanced semiconductor technology
with a precision of 1ppm (one millionth) and above is used for this product. But the
pixels of RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color seem to be bright sometimes or
some of black pixels could be seen. This is not from bad quality and you can use
it without any problems.
•
For example, the number of TFT-LCD sub pixels contained in this product are
6,220,800.
When cleaning the monitor and the panel outside, please apply a small amount
of water to a soft cloth. Rub softly when cleaning the LCD area.If excessive force
is applied, you may stain it.
If you are not satisfied with the picture quality, you can get better quality of
picture by performing the "Auto Adjustment function" in display screen that is ap-
peared as window termination button is pressed. If there's still noise after the
automatic adjustment, use the Fine/Coarse adjustment function.
When viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time, a residual image
or blurriness may appear. Change the mode to energy save or set a screensaver
to move the picture when you need to be away from the monitor for an extended
period of time.
PRODUCT INFORMATION (Image Retention Free)
What is Image Retention ?
Image retention may not occur when a LCD panel is operated under normal con-
ditions.
Normal conditions are defined as continuously changing video patterns. When the
LCD panel is operated for a long time with a fixed pattern (over 12 hours), there
may be slight difference in voltage between electrodes that work the liquid crystal
(LC) in a pixel. The voltage difference between electrodes increases with time,
forcing the liquid crystal to lean. When this occurs, the previous image may be seen
when the pattern is changed. To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference
must be decreased.

Dot Pitch
The image on a monitor is composed of red, green and blue
dots. The closer the dots, the higher the resolution. The dis-
tance between two dots of the same color is called the 'Dot
Pitch'. Unit: mm

Appendix
Vertical Frequency
The screen must be redrawn several times per second in
order to create and display an image for the user. The fre-
quency of this repetition per second is called the Vertical
Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit: Hz
Example: If the same light repeats itself 60 times per sec-
ond, this is regarded as 60 Hz.
Horizontal Frequency
The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the
left edge of the screen horizontally is called the Horizontal
Cycle. The inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called
Horizontal Frequency. Unit: kHz
Interlace and Non-Interlace
Methods
Showing the horizontal lines of the screen from the top to
the bottom sequentially is called the Non-Interlace method
while showing odd lines and then even lines in turn is called
the Interlace method. The Non-Interlace method is used for
the majority of monitors to ensure a clear image. The Inter-
lace method is the same as that used in TVs.
Plug & Play
Resolution
This is a function that provides the best quality screen for
the user by allowing the computer and the monitor to ex-
change information automatically. This monitor follows the
international standard VESA DDC for the Plug & Play func-
tion.
The number of horizontal and vertical dots used to compose
the screen image is called the 'resolution'. This number
shows the accuracy of the display. A high resolution is good
for performing multiple tasks as more image information can
be shown on the screen.
Example: If the resolution is 1920 x 1080, this means the
screen is composed of 1920 horizontal dots (horizontal res-
olution) and 1080 vertical lines (vertical resolution).
