systems: Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Me (Millennium),
and Windows XP.
Package Contents
Your package includes:

• DB-15 video cable
• Power cord
• ViewSonic Wizard CD-ROM
• Quick Star Guide
Note : The CD jacket contains the Quick Start Guide, and the CD includes the User Guide

18” from the monitor.
•
Place your monitor in a well ventilated
area. Do not place anything on the

fingers. Oils from the skin are difficult
to remove.
•
•
Ensure the area around the monitor is
clean and free of moisture.
•
•
Never remove the rearcover. The
monitor contains high voltage parts. You
may suffer serious injury if you touch
these parts.
Keep the monitor away from magnets,
motors, transformers, speakers, and
televisions.
Avoid exposing the monitor to direct
sunlight or another heat source,
including an open flame. The monitor
should be facing away from direct
sunlight to reduce glare.
•
•
Do not place heavy objects on the
monitor, video cable, or power cord.
If smoke, abnormal noise, or strange
odor is present, immediately switch
the monitor off and call your dealer
or ViewSonic. It is dangerous to
continueusing the monitor.
•
Always handle your monitor with care
when moving it.

ViewMatch® Color provides several color options: several
preset color temperatures and User Color which allows you to
adjust red (R), green (G), and blue (B). The factory setting for
this product is 9300K (9300° Kelvin).
9300K— Adds blue to the screen image for cooler white (used
in most office settings with fluorescent lighting).

richer red.
5000K— Adds blue and green to the screen image for a darker
color.
User Color — Individual adjustments for red, green, and blue.
Moire Moire reduces interference patterns that appear as ripples,
waves, or unwanted background color textures. Interference
patterns of this type are most noticeable when viewingimages
having closely spaced lines or finely detailed patterns.

for the menus and control screens: English, French, German,
Italian, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and
Japanese.

Troubleshooting
No power
•
•
Make sure power button (or switch) is ON.
Make sure A/C power cord is securely connected to the back of the monitor and to a
power outlet.
•
Plug another electrical device (like a radio) into the power outlet to verify that the outlet
is supplying proper voltage.
Power is ON but no screen image
•
Make sure the video cable supplied with the monitor is tightly secured to the video
output port on the back of the computer. If the other end of the video cable is not attached
permanently to the monitor, tightly secure it to the monitor.
•
•
Adjust brightness and contrast.
Verify whether an adapter is required for proper signal continuity between graphics card
and monitor.
Flickering
•
•
•
Not enough power supplied. Connect the monitor to a different outlet. If using a surge
protector, reduce the number of devices plugged in.
Check the ViewMeter from the main menu to verify the refresh rate (vertical frequency)
is 75 Hz or higher. See “Specifications” on page 10.
Remove any devices from the area around the monitor that emit magnetic fields such as
radios, surge protectors, unshielded speakers, fluorescent lights, AC power converters,
desk fans, etc.
•
Make sure the graphics card in your computer can use non-interlaced mode at the desired
frequencies. To enable your graphics card to support higher refresh rates, try selecting
fewer colors or running lower resolutions.
Wrong or abnormal colors
•
If any colors (red, green, or blue) are missing, check the video cable to make sure it is
securely connected. Loose or broken pins in the cable connector could cause an improper
connection.
•
•
•
Connect the monitor to another computer.
Select Degauss from the Main Menu. Do this only once.
If you have an older graphics card, contact ViewSonic® Customer Support.
Entire screen image rolls vertically
•
•
•
Make sure video input signals are within the monitor’s specified frequency range.
Try the monitor with another power source, graphics card, or computer system.
Connect the video cable securely.
Control buttons do not work
Press only one button at a time.
