Geeting Started  
Congratulations on your purchase of a ViewSonic® color monitor.  
Important! Save the original box and all packing material for future shipping needs.  
Note : The word “Windows” in this user guide refers to the following Microsoft operating  
systems: Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Me (Millennium),  
and Windows XP.  
Package Contents  
Your package includes:  
• Color monitor  
• 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  
PDF files and INF/ICM display optimization files. The INF file ensures compatibility with  
Windows operating systems, and the ICM file (Image Color Matching) ensures accurate on-  
screen colors. ViewSonic recommends that you install both files.  
Precautions  
For best viewing conditions sit at least  
18” from the monitor.  
Place your monitor in a well ventilated  
area. Do not place anything on the  
monitor that prevents adequate  
dissipation of heat.  
Avoid touching the screen with your  
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.

Using the Monitor  
Setting the Timing Mode  
Setting the timing mode is important for maximizing the quality of the screen image and  
minimizing eye strain. The timing mode consists of the resolution (example 1024 x 768) and  
refresh rate (or vertical frequency; example 85 Hz). After setting the timing mode, use the  
OnView® controls to adjust the screen image.  
For the best picture quality set your monitor timing mode to:  
VESA 1024 x 768 @ 85 Hz.  
To set the Resolution:  
1. Right-click on the Windows desktop.  
2. Click Properties on the drop-down menu.  
3. Click the Settings tab.  
4. Move the slider pointer which displays in the Desktop area or Screen area in the window.  
Note : The refresh rate should already be set if you have done the CD installation (or refer to  
your graphics card documentation).

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).  
6500K— Adds red to the screen image for warmer white and  
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.  
Language allows you to choose from among several languages  
for the menus and control screens: English, French, German,  
Italian, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and  
Japanese.  
Memory Recall returns adjustments to the original factory  
settings if the display is operating in a factory preset timing  
mode listed in this user guide.  
Exception: This control does not affect changes made with the  
User Color control.  
OSD Position allows you to move the on-screen display  
menus and control screens.

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.
