TIPS

• Using this monitor’s screen-size switching or dual-screen display functions to compress or expand the screen for commercial or public viewing in establishments like cafes or hotels may infringe on the rights of the creators, as protected by Copyright

Law, so please be careful.

• When “Enlarge” is set, the screen size is fixed to “WIDE” mode.

• When dual-screen display is selected, the screen size cannot be changed.

• The appearance of the original video may change if you select a screen size with a different aspect ratio than the original image (e.g. TV broadcast or video input from external equipment).

• When an ordinary non-wide image (4:3) is viewed with the whole screen using the screen-size switching function of this monitor, the edge of the image may be lost or appear distorted. If you wish to respect the creator’s intentions, set the screen size to “NORMAL”.

• When playing commercial software, parts of the image (like subtitles) may be cropped. In this case select the optimal screen size using the screen-size switching function of this monitor. With some software, there may be noise or distortion at the edges of the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the software, and is not a malfunction.

• Depending on the original image size, black bands may remain at the edges of the screen.

Advanced operation

This section explains commands for daisy chain connection.

The basic communication procedure is the same as in the

“One-to-one connection with a PC” section.

n

ID numbers

You can assign a unique ID number to each monitor (see page 25). This allows you to control a particular monitor in a daisy chain of monitors.

You can assign ID numbers either from the menu screen or from the PC using RS-232 cable.

[Example]

ID number: 1 ID number: 2 ID number: 3 ID number: 4

If monitors are connected as shown above, you can execute commands like “Set the volume of the monitor with

ID 4 to 20”.

When designating ID numbers for a set of monitors linked in a daisy chain, you should basically avoid any duplication of ID numbers.

ID numbers do not have to be assigned in ascending order starting from the PC. They can also be connected as shown below.

[Example]



n

Commands for ID control

The command examples shown on this page assume the following connection and ID number set up.


IDST ......... A monitor receiving this command sets its own ID

Example:

TIPS number in the parameter field.

IDST0001

OK 001 ← The ID number of this monitor is set to 1.

You can automatically assign ID numbers by using the IDST command with the Repeater control (see “Repeater control” on page 36).

For example, using the command “IDST001+” automatically sets the ID numbers, as shown below.

[Example]


IDST001 +

WAIT

OK 001

OK 002

OK 003

OK 004

← ID setting command with repeater control

←

“OK” response from ID number: 1

← “OK” response from ID number: 2

← “OK” response from ID number: 3

← “OK” response from ID number: 4 (End)

IDSL ........The parameter of this command sets the ID number of the monitor. The monitor is subject to the next command.

Example:

IDSL0002 ←

The next command is for the monitor with ID number: 2.

WAIT ←

Searching for monitor with ID number:

2

OK 002 ←

Found monitor with ID number: 2

VOLM0030

WAIT

←

Sets volume of monitor with ID number: 2 to 30.

←

Processing

OK 002 ←

OK response from monitor with ID number: 2

VOLM0020 ←

Sets volume to 20.

OK 001 ←

The volume of the monitor with ID number: 1 (the one directly connected to the PC) is set to 20.*

* The IDSL command is effective only once, for the immediately succeeding command.

IDLK ........The parameter of this command sets the ID number of the monitor. The monitor is subject to all subsequent commands.

Example:

IDLK0002

WAIT

VOLM0020

←

←

←

Following commands are for the monitor with ID number: 2.

Searching for monitor with ID number:

2

OK 002 ←

Found monitor with ID number: 2

VOLM0030

WAIT

OK 002

←

Sets volume of monitor with ID number: 2 to 30.*

←

Processing

Sets volume of monitor with ID number: 2 to 20.*

WAIT

OK 002

IDLK0000

WAIT

←

←

OK 002 ←

Cancelation complete

VOLM0010

OK 001 ←

The volume of the monitor with ID number:

1 (the one directly connected to the PC) is set to 10. (IDLK is canceled.)

* The IDLK command remains effective until it is canceled, or power is shut off.

IDCK ........Provides screen display of the ID number currently assigned to a monitor, and the ID number currently set for IDLK (if any).

Example:

(After executing IDLK0002)

IDCK0000

←

(Parameter has no meaning.)

ID : 001 IDLK : 002

IDCK000 +

WAIT

ID : 001 IDLK : 000

ID : 003 IDLK : 000

ID : 004 IDLK : 000

←

Returned response. The ID number is also displayed on the monitor screen.

← Repeater control. (If a command is used with repeater control, ID designation using IDSL or IDLK is canceled.)

35

E


n

Repeater control

This system has a function to allow setting of multiple monitors connected in a daisy chain using a single command.

This function is called repeater control. You can use Repeater control function without assigning ID numbers.

[Example]

Set 1 Set 2 Set 3 Set 4

* If monitors are connected as shown above, you can execute a command like “Set all monitors’ input settings to

D-SUB[RGB]”.

n

Repeater control command

Repeater control is achieved by setting the FOURTH

CHARACTER of the parameter to “+”.

Example:

VOLM030 + ←

Sets volume of all monitors to 30.

In repeater control, responses are returned by all the connected monitors.

If you want to determine that a value has been returned by a specific set, assign ID numbers to each monitor in advance.

When some monitors do not return their responses, the probable cause is that the monitors could not receive the command or command processing is not complete. Do not send a new command.

Example: (When 4 monitors are connected, and assigned ID numbers: 1 through 4)

VOLM030 +

WAIT

OK 001

OK 002

OK 003

OK 004 ← If 4 monitors are connected in a chain, reliable operation can be ensured by sending a new command only after a reply has been returned by 4th (last) monitor.

Repeater control can also be used for reading settings.

Example:

VOLM ? ? ? +

WAIT

10 001

20 002

30 003

30 004

Volume settings for all monitors are returned.

Setting of the GAMMA user data

n

To transfer the GAMMA user data

Use the user data transfer commands (UGRW, UGGW and

UGBW). For each of the R, G and B colors, divide the total

512 pieces of user data into 16 blocks, and transfer 32 pieces of data with each command.

C1 C2 C3 C4 P1 P2 P3 P4

… S1 S2

Command field Block number (01 to 16) Data field Checksum field

Example: To transfer the data of block 1 (0 to 31 levels) of red (R) data

UGRW01000000010002 … 0031C0

One piece of data consists of 4 digits.

Command Block number 32 pieces of data Checksum

* If data is less than 4 digits, add a “0” (zero) to make it 4 digits.

* The checksum field is the character string (ASCII) data of lower-order one byte which indicates the sum of the block number and 32 pieces of data in hexadecimal (0 to F).

n

Saving the GAMMA user data

Use the user data save command (UGSV) to save the transferred user data in the monitor.

If the data is not saved, it will be cleared when:

• The main power switch is off

• STANDBY MODE is LOW POWER and the monitor enters standby mode n

Activating the GAMMA user data

To activate the transferred user data, select USER for GAMMA of the PICTURE menu, or send the corresponding RS-232C command.

n

Checking the GAMMA user data

Use the user data read commands (UGRR, UGGR and

UGBR) to return 512 pieces of user data for each of the R,

G and B colors. Divide the data into 16 blocks and return 32 pieces of data with each command. The value to be returned is not the value stored in the monitor, but the value in the temporary memory for display. (These values are the same when the user data save command (UGSV) above has been sent.)

TIPS

• The user data is not initialized by RESET of the PICTURE menu. To initialize the user data, use ALL RESET of the

FUNCTION menu.

The GAMMA user data initialize command (UGRS) allows the initialization of the user data only.

E

36

TIPS

• If repeater control is used during ID designation (IDSL,

IDLK), the ID designation is canceled.

58.)

Control buttons do not work.

There is no picture.

• Load noises from outside may be interfering with normal operation. Turn off the power and turn it on after waiting at least 5 seconds, and then check the operation.

The input mode changes automatically.

• When the AUTO INPUT CHANGE is ON and no signal is present in a selected input mode, the AUTO INPUT

CHANGE automatically changes the selected mode to a mode where a video signal is present.

The input mode may change in the following cases:

- When a computer is in standby mode.

- When video play is stopped with a playback device.

Power LED flashes red.

“STATUS [xxxx]” appears in the corner of the screen.

• Hardware has a problem. Turn off the monitor and request repair from your SHARP dealer.

(When STATUS ALERT is set to OSD & LED. This varies depending on the setting.)

When “AUTO DIMMING” is displayed.

• When the internal temperature of the monitor rises excessively, the brightness of the backlight automatically decreases in order to prevent a further temperature rise. If you attempt to use to adjust the brightness while the monitor is in this state, “AUTO DIMMING” is displayed and you cannot change the brightness.

• Remove the cause of the excessive temperature rise.

The monitor makes a cracking sound.

• You may occasionally hear a cracking sound from the monitor. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands and contracts according to change in temperature. This does not affect the monitor’s performance.

The Power LED is flashing in red and green alternately.

When “TEMPERATURE” is displayed in the corner of the screen.

• When the internal temperature of the monitor rises excessively, the brightness of the backlight decreases automatically in order to prevent high-temperaturerelated problems. When this occurs, “TEMPERATURE” is displayed on the screen and the Power LED flashes red and green alternately. (When TEMPERATURE ALERT is set to OSD & LED. This varies depending on the setting.)

• If the internal temperature rises further, the monitor automatically enters standby mode. (The Power LED continues flashing red and green alternately.)

• Remove the cause of the excessive temperature rise.

- If the monitor enters standby mode due to a rise in temperature, to return to normal display, turn the power switch off and then back on again. The monitor, however, will enter standby mode again if the cause of the temperature rise is not eliminated. (See page 7.)

- Check whether the monitor is placed at a location where a quick rise in temperature is likely. Internal temperature rises quickly if the vents on the monitor are blocked.

- Internal temperature rises quickly if dust accumulates inside the monitor or around the vents. Remove dust if possible. Ask SHARP dealer about removing internal dust.

Mounting Precautions

(For SHARP dealers and service engineers)

• When installing, removing or moving the monitor, ensure that this is carried out by at least 4 people.

• Be sure to use a wall-mount bracket designed or designated for mounting the monitor.

• This monitor is designed to be installed on a concrete wall or pillar. Reinforced work might be necessary for some materials such as plaster / thin plastic board / wood before starting installation.

• This monitor and bracket must be installed on a wall which can endure at least 4 times or more the weight of the monitor.

Install by the most suitable method for the material and the structure.

• To attach a mounting bracket, use M6 screws that are 5/16 inch (8 mm) to 3/8 inch (10 mm) longer than the thickness of the mounting bracket.

• Do not use an impact driver.

• When moving the monitor, be sure to hold it with the handles, the unit bottom and the side of unit. Do not hold the LCD panel.

This may cause product damage, failure, or injury.

• After mounting, please carefully ensure the monitor is secure, and not able to come loose from the wall or mount.

• Do not use any screw holes other than those for mounting brackets, located on the rear of the monitor, for installation.

Set the date in “Day/Month/Year” order.

Set the time on a 24-hour basis.

The clock is maintained by the internal battery.

If you already set the time but the date/time setting screen appears when the power is turned on, the internal battery may be exhausted. Please contact an authorized SHARP servicing dealer or service center for assistance with battery replacement.

Estimated service life of the internal battery: About 5 years (depending on monitor operation)

The initial battery was inserted at the factory when the monitor was shipped, so it may run out of power before its expected operation life.
