PRECAUTIONS
•
•
Do not use the monitor near water, e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement.
Do not place the monitor on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If the monitor falls, it can injure a person and cause serious damage to the appliance. Use only a cart
or stand recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the monitor. If you mount the monitor on a wall or shelf, use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer
and follow the kit instructions.
•
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the monitor and to protect it from overheating,
be sure these openings are not blocked or covered. Do not place the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface. Do not place the monitor near or over a
radiator or heat register. Do not place the monitor in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
•
•
The monitor should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult
your dealer or local power company.
The monitor is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug, a plug with a third (grounding) pin. This plug will fit only into a grounded power outlet as a safety
feature. If your outlet does not accommodate the three-wire plug, have an electrician install the correct outlet, or use an adapter to ground the appliance safely. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the grounded plug.

DCB Adjustment
What is DCB?
Dynamic Color Boost (DCB) is an advanced color adjustment technology. Through analyzing RGB signals, DCB creates more vivid and natural images to suit various color
environment needs. DCB has two types of color enhancers: “Color Boost” and “Picture Boost” .
DCC: Dynamic color control
ICM: Intelligent color management
1) How to use Color Boost?
YCM adjustment: In addition to the basic R (red), G (green), B (blue) color adjustments, Color Boost has added Y (yellow), C (cyanine), and M (magenta) for more color
fine-tuning options. YCM adjustments are in the third icon labeled "Color Temperature "in the OSD menu. When adjusting YCM values, RGB values will also be changed
automatically due to the color correlation between RGB and YCM.
Five color-enhancement settings: To accommodate various display needs, Color Boost also offers 5 different color enhancement modes: Full Enhance, Natural Skin,
Green Field, Sky Blue, and Auto-Detect. Please go to the fourth icon labeled “Color Boost” in the OSD menu and select one of the five settings you desire to be turned on.
Full Enhance: When "Full Enhance" is turned on, the color saturation of the entire screen is fully enriched, thus all colors become more vibrant.
Nature Skin: When "Natural Skin" is turned on, the red and yellow colors are enriched automatically, thus presents human skin with more natural and truer colors.
"Natural Skin" setting is ideal for viewing human portrait and detailed skin texture.
Green Field: When "Green Field" is turned on, the green color is enriched so that football field and mountain landscape would look more natural and fresh. “Green Field”
setting is ideal for watching mountain scenery and outdoor sports.
Sky Blue: When"Sky Blue" is turned on, the color blue is being fine-tuned so that the sky or ocean landscape will look more vivid and in-depth. "Sky Blue" setting is ideal
for viewing sky and ocean images.
Auto Detect: When “Auto Detect” is turned on, every pigment will be detected and self-adjusted to render a lively picture.
Demo: Screen divided into two for demonstration purposes.
2) How to use Picture Boost?
Users can change the color settings of a self-selected zone on the screen. The size and position of the selected zone can also be adjusted. "Picture Boost" is located in the
fifth icon labeled "Picture Boost" in the OSD menu. Turn on "Bright Frame" to select a zone on the screen to be enhanced. Please note when adjust or turn on any one of
the DCB features, the rest of color settings including DCR will be disabled or return to default.
Disclaimer: DCB aftereffects are subject to the resolution and quality of the display content, hence may look different than the above illustrations.
DCR Adjustment
What is DCR?
Dynamic Contrast Ratio (DCR) auto adjusts the brightness of the screen so users can see the darker areas of the displayed content in more depths. By increasing the
darkness of the dark areas and the brightness of the bright areas, contrast ratio is uplifted to exceed 2000:1. DCR value varies subject to the original CR values of the LCD
module. The higher the original CR, the higher DCR can be achieved. DCR is great for watching movie or video contents.
How to Use DCR?
Go to the first OSD icon labeled "Luminance", turn on or off DCR as desires. DCR boosts the contrasts between lightness & darkness and enables the viewer to see more
layers and details of the picture, especially in the darker areas. Please note when DCR is on, DCB will be disabled.
