Preset and User Modes
This monitor has factory preset modes for the most popular
industry standards for true “plug and play” compatibility.
When a new input signal is entered, the monitor selects the
appropriate factory preset mode and momentarily adjusts
the phase calibration to provide a high quality picture to the
center of the screen. The calibration is stored in memory
and is immediately recalled whenever the same input signal
is received.

Technical Features
For input signals that do not match one of the factory preset
modes, the digital Multiscan technology of this monitor
performs all of the adjustments necessary to ensure that a
clear picture appears on the screen for any timing in the
monitor’s frequency range. However, it may be necessary
to fine tune the vertical/horizontal size and centering.
Simply press the ASC button or adjust the monitor
according to the adjustment instructions. The adjustments
are stored automatically as a user mode and recalled
whenever the corresponding input signal is received. A
total of 15 user adjusted modes can be stored in memory.
Recommended horizontal and vertical timing
conditions
Horizontal sync width duty should be: >4.8% of total horizontal
time.
Horizontal blanking width should be: >2.8 µsec.
Vertical blanking width should be: > 450 µsec.

Power Saving Function
This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by
VESA and
E
NERGY
S
TAR, as well as the more stringent
NUTEK .
If the monitor is connected to a computer or video graphics
board that is VESA DPMS (Display Power Management
Signaling) compliant, the monitor will automatically reduce
power consumption in three stages as shown below.

You can set the delay time before the monitor enters the
power saving mode using the OSD. Set the time according
to “Setting the power saving delay time” on page 16.
Note
If no video signal is input to the monitor, the “NO INPUT
SIGNAL” message (page 20) appears. After the delay time has
passed, the power saving function automatically puts the monitor
into the active-off mode and the u indicator lights up orange. Once
the horizontal and vertical sync signals are detected, the monitor
automatically resumes its normal operation mode.
Damper Wires
When viewing a white background, very thin horizontal lines
may be visible on the screen as shown below. These lines are
the shadows of the damper wires and are characteristic of
CRTs that use aperture grilles. The wires are attached to the
aperture grille on the inside of the Trinitron tube and prevent
the vibration of the aperture grille.
Damper wires
Plug & Play
This monitor complies with the DDC
1, DDC2B, DDC2AB
and DDC2B+ Display Data Channel (DDC) standards of
VESA.
When a DDC1 host system is connected, the monitor
synchronizes with the V. CLK in accordance with the VESA
standards and outputs the EDID (Extended Display
Identification Data) to the data line.
When a DDC2B, DDC2AB or DDC2B+ host system is
connected, the monitor automatically switches to the
appropriate standard.
DDC
is a trademark of the Video Electronics Standard
Association.
Note
When using Windows
®
95, the DDC standard does not apply to the
5 BNC connectors. If you use the DDC standard, connect the HD15
connector to the computer with the supplied video signal cable.
