CHAPTER 1  
Your New Planar LCD Monitor  
Your New Planar LCD Monitor!  
Your New Planar LCD Monitor has been designed to be versatile, ergonomic and user-friendly. Your New Planar LCD  
Monitor is capable of displaying most standards, from 640 x 480 VGA to 1024 x 768 XGA. The digital controls located  
on the front panel allow the user to easily adjust the Monitor’s display parameters. Your New Planar LCD Monitor’s small  
footprint allows you more room in your workspace for other peripherals. Lightweight and compact, your New Planar LCD  
Monitor is the perfect solution for users on the go. You can use your New Planar LCD Monitor for everything from mak-  
ing business presentations to playing computer games. The two stereo speakers allow you to further expand your  
computer’s multimedia capabilities by connecting your computer’s Audio out port to your New Planar LCD Monitor’s  
Audio in port. If you have a complete full workstation, your New Planar LCD Monitor has the additional feature of an  
optional wall-mountable stand for added convenience.  
The architecture of your New Planar LCD Monitor incorporates an LCD panel that produces a clear display with low  
radiation emission, limiting health concerns. With its low power consumption, your New Planar LCD Monitor helps you  
reduce your power bill.  
Unpacking  
Before you unpack your New Planar LCD Monitor, prepare a suitable workspace for your New Planar LCD Monitor and  
computer. You need a stable, level and clean surface near a wall outlet. Even though your New Planar LCD Monitor  
uses very little power, you should put it in a location that allows sufficient airflow to ensure that your New Planar LCD  
Monitor and your computer do not become too hot. Set up your New Planar LCD Monitor so that the panel does not face  
a window where sunlight often comes in. The glare caused by sunlight reflecting off your New Planar LCD Monitor’s  
screen will make it difficult to see.  
Using a computer for an extended period of time with a poor workstation set-up and incorrect working  
habits can cause health problems. The science of ergonomics studies the relationship between health  
and a suitable working environment. There is a section on ergonomics at the end of this chapter. For  
more information on ergonomics, contact your nearest computer bookstore, or local library. The Internet  
also has information on this and other subjects.  
After you unpack your New Planar LCD Monitor; make sure the following items are included in the box and in good con-  
dition:  
LCD Monitor  
Monitor-to-PC signal cable  
1.5M Stereo Jack Audio Cable  
AC Adapter  
Power cord  
This Planar User’s Manual  
If you find that any of these items are missing or appear damaged, contact your dealer immediately. Do not throw away  
the packing material or shipping carton in case you need to ship or store your New Planar LCD Monitor in the future.  
Identifying Components  
Your New Planar LCD Monitor has been designed to provide easy access to all controls and peripheral ports. The fol-  
lowing figures will help you identify your New Planar LCD Monitor’s controls and ports.

Connecting USB Devices  
The following section covers connecting USB devices. The LCD monitor supports an upstream and two downstream  
USB connections.  
Upstream  
You can connect the LCD monitor’s upstream USB port to your PC’s USB port and use the LCD monitor as a USB hub.  
The following explains how to connect the upstream USB port to your PC:  
1. Connect one end of the USB cable to the LCD monitor’s upstream USB port.  
2. Connect the other end to the PC’s USB port.  
Downstream  
The two downstream USB ports connect USB devices, such as USB keyboards, scanners and mice, directly to your LCD  
monitor.  
Connect the USB device cable to one of the LCD monitor’s downstream USB ports.  
Note: The upstream USB port must be connected to your PC for the downstream USB ports to function.  
Power Management System  
The LCD monitor complies with the VESA DPMS power management proposal. The VESA DPMS proposal provides  
power saving modes by detecting the horizontal or vertical sync signal. Refer to the Addendum for more information.  
When the LCD monitor is in power saving mode or detects an incorrect timing, the monitor screen will be blank and the  
power LED indicator starts blinking.

APPENDIX C  
Troubleshooting  
Troubleshooting Procedures  
This LCD Monitor was pre-adjusted in the factory with standard VGA timing. Due to output timing differences among  
various VGA cards, you may initially experience an unstable or unclear display when a new display mode or new VGA  
card is selected.  
This LCD Monitor Supports Multiple VGA Modes. Refer to Appendix B for a listing of the factory-preset  
modes supported by this LCD Monitor.  
PROBLEM: Display is Unclear and Unstable  
To stabilize and clarify your display, follow this procedure in this order:  
1. It’s best to adjust the display on a screen displaying of vertical lines. In Windows, load a wallpaper bitmap  
that has vertical lines in it. (or you can select the window shut down screen)  
2. After you have the wallpaper loaded, open the OSD and select the “Clock” function. Press the top (or bottom)  
Adjustment Control button and continue pressing the button until you see vertical dark and light lines across  
the screen.  
3. When you can see distinct light and dark vertical bands, stop pressing the Adjustment Control button. Now  
press the opposite (top or bottom) Adjustment Control button. The vertical dark and light bands will decrease  
in number. Keep pressing the button until the distinct bands disappear and you have a clear display.  
4. Next, press the Function Control button to choose the “Phase” function. The Phase will adjust the horizontal  
display. Press the top (or bottom) Adjustment Control button and you will see horizontal dark and light lines  
appear. The number of lines increases as you press the button. Now press the bottom (or top) Adjustment  
Control button until the lines disappear and you have a clear display.  
PROBLEM: There is no LCD Display  
If there is no display on the LCD, please perform the following steps:  
1. Make sure that the power indicator on your New Planar LCD Monitor is lit, all connections are secure, and the  
system is running on the correct timing. Refer to the Appendix B for information on timing.  
2. Turn off your New Planar LCD Monitor and then turn it back on again. Press the upper Function Control but-  
ton (refer to Chapter 2) once and then press either the upper or lower Adjustment Control button several  
times. If there is still no display, press the other Adjustment Control button several times.  
3. If step 2 doesn’t work, connect your PC system to another external CRT. If your PC System functions prop-  
erly with a CRT Monitor but it does not function with your New Planar LCD Monitor, and your New Planar  
LCD Monitor’s power LED is blinking, the output timing of the PC’s VGA card may be out of the LCD’s  
synchronous range. Please change to an alternate mode listed in Appendix B or replace the VGA card and re-  
peat steps 1 and 2.  
4. If the PC doesn’t function with the CRT monitor neither, check BIOS to see if there is a dual scan setting un-  
der the display mode item. Set the BIOS display mode to Dual Scan or CRT and try again. If there is still no  
display, then there may be a problem with your system. Contact technical support.  
5. If the power LED is not lit, check to see if the AC power connector is securely connected. Verify that the AC  
adapter LED is lit. If the AC adapter LED is not lit, please contact your Planar dealer for assistance.
