1. Self-Test Feature Check
Your monitor provides a self test feature that allows you to check whether your monitor is functioning 
properly. 
1. Turn off both your computer and the monitor.  
2. Unplug the video cable from the back of the computer.  
3. Turn on the monitor.  
 
The figure shown below ("Check Signal Cable") appears on a black background when the monitor is 
in its normal working condition though it does not sense any video signal: While in the Self-Test 
mode, the LED power indicator remains green and the figure moves around on the screen. 
 
 
 
4. Turn off your monitor and reconnect the video cable; then turn on both your computer and the 
monitor.  
If your monitor screen remains blank after using the previous procedure, check your video controller and 
computer system; your monitor is functioning properly
 
 
2. Not Optimum Mode 
If the vertical resolution is not in optimum mode, you can still see the display but the warning message 
below appears and disappears after one minute.  
The user must adjust the frequency within that one minute.
