Other Notices
• The display is able to remember the last input source before it is turned off by control panel. Next
time when you turn on the display, it will present the last file via the last input directly. If the
previous input source has been removed, you need to switch to the new input source manually.
• If a regular image is displayed on the displayed screen for a long period of time, it might occur
“imprint”, which may result to permanent defected images on the screen.This is called screen
burn-in or imprint, thus this specific issue is not covered within the guarantee scope.
• If the proportional selection’ display screen for a long period of time is 4:3, screen burn-in may appear at
the black and image of the screen.
• In order to prevent the occurrence of residual shadow, avoid to display a regular image for a long
period of time on the display screen (TFT-LCD more than two hours, Plasma display panel more than
one hour)
• Avoid stationary images as much as possible. Stationary images are images that remain onscreen for
extended periods of time. Stationary images include onscreen menus, black bars, time displays, etc.
• Please plug in only one source. If multiple source (i.e.VGA/DVI/HDMI & USB stick) are plugged into
the I/P ports, the system might be unstable.

Notice: Regarding powering off
• As the IPC in the LCD shares the same power with the LCD’s power board, the only way to turn off IPC
(i.e. windows shutdown)while LCD power is on is to unplug the power cord from the LCD and plug the
power cord back to restart IPC.
• If the windows system freezes during operation, please unplug the power cord from the LCD and plug it
back in to restart the IPC.
• Turning the LCD off directly without shutting down the IPC first may damage the windows system. And
as such, if you wish to turn off the LCD for purposes of disassembly, be sure to perform the shutdown
process for windows.
• Procedure to turn off the Windows:
Press Ctrl+Q to return to OS desktop, right-click the Start button, you'll see a lengthy pop-up
26
shortcut menu -- with "Shut down or sign out" right near the bottom. Mouse over that option and
then click "Shut down."
• If you wish to restart IPC but find it difficult to unplug the power cord when the LCD is installed in a
suspended configuration, simply restart the relay of the power supply to restart IPC.
