This document is a user guide for an Acer LCD Monitor, providing essential information for safe and comfortable use, installation, control, and troubleshooting.
The Acer LCD Monitor is designed for video and visual display of information from electronic devices. It supports various display resolutions and timing standards, including VESA modes, and is equipped with a universal power supply. The monitor features a plug-and-play capability through the Display Data Channel (DDC) protocol, allowing it to automatically communicate its capabilities to the host system. It also supports FreeSync (HDMI/DP) technology, which dynamically adjusts the display refresh rate based on content frame rates, aiming for power efficiency, stutter-free visuals, and low-latency updates. The monitor includes an On Screen Display (OSD) menu for adjusting picture quality, OSD position, and general settings, offering a range of customization options for an optimized viewing experience.
The guide emphasizes safety and comfort, advising users to read instructions carefully and keep the document for future reference. It highlights the importance of proper power outlet accessibility and safe listening practices to protect hearing, such as gradually increasing volume and limiting high-volume listening. Warnings are provided against using the product near water, on unstable surfaces, or blocking ventilation openings. It also cautions against inserting objects into cabinet slots or spilling liquids onto the product. The document stresses the importance of using the supplied power supply cord and referring servicing to qualified personnel.
The guide clarifies that certain phenomena are normal for LCD monitors and do not indicate a problem. These include potential screen flickering during initial use (which can be resolved by cycling the power), slightly uneven brightness depending on the desktop pattern, and the presence of a small percentage of non-effective pixels (0.01% or less). It also notes that an afterimage may remain after displaying the same image for hours, which recovers slowly by changing the image or turning off the power.
The power outlet for the monitor should be easily accessible and close to the operator, allowing for quick disconnection of power when needed.
Users should operate the product from the type of power indicated on the marking label. It is crucial to ensure that extension cords and power outlets are not overloaded and that the product's three-wire grounded plug is inserted into a properly grounded outlet.
Installation involves turning off the computer, connecting the signal cable (HDMI and/or DP) to the monitor and the computer's graphics card, inserting the monitor power cable into the power port, and plugging both the computer and monitor power cords into an electrical outlet. Audio output is available for audio-enabled models.
The monitor's tilt can be adjusted by holding its edges, allowing for a range of 20 degrees up or 5 degrees down to optimize viewing position.
The monitor features a power button and multiple function keys. The power button turns the monitor on/off, with blue indicating power on and amber indicating standby/power saving mode. The function keys allow users to access the Main page, hotkey functions (such as modes, brightness, volume, gamma, contrast, blue light, overdrive, PIP/PBP, VRB), input selection, and to quit the OSD. A single toggle button on the backside of the display bezel acts as a joystick for navigating the OSD menu.
The OSD menu can be accessed via the MENU key. It allows adjustments to picture quality, OSD position, and general settings. Hotkeys provide quick access to game modes (G1, G2, G3) or scenario modes (User, Standard, ECO, Graphics, Movie), brightness control, and input selection (HDMI1, HDMI2, DP, or Auto Source).
Users can save their preferred settings into three user-defined profiles for game mode, allowing for quick recall of customized configurations.
The guide provides a troubleshooting list for common issues like "No picture visible," with remedies based on LED status (Blue or Amber). Solutions include adjusting brightness and contrast, checking power connections, verifying video signal cable connections, and confirming computer power status.
The guide provides specific instructions for cleaning the monitor:
