The AGX700 employs the vertically flat screen of advanced Trinitron®
technology that produces straighter lines eliminating much of image
distortion found on a conventional sphercal screen. Its aperture grille
design, which features a series of unbroken vertical stripes allowing more
of the electron beam to pass through to the phosphor layer, produces a
clearer and brighter picture. In addition, ambient light reflection is
minimized to provide a screen image that reduces eyestrain and fatigue
With Auto Setup, pressing a single button adjusts the picture size and
position automatically. Self-diagnostic capabilities quickly determine if
the monitor is working properly, or if problems lie elsewhere.

and hold down the button until the progress bar disappears.
The AGX700 is a multi-scan monitor. It operates at horizontal frequencies
between 30kHz and 70kHz, vertical frequencies between 50Hz and
140Hz. Because of its microprocessor-based design, it offers autosynchronization and auto-sizing capabilities. This monitor offers 11 preprogrammed settings, which are listed in the table to the right.
These preset modes cover most of the common video modes supported
by popular display adapters. However, each adapter’s implementation of
these video modes may vary slightly in timings. If you find it necessary to
make minor display adjustments (horizontal and vertical size and
position), please refer to Chapter 3 for instructions on making these
adjustments.
Note that the monitor is not limited to these preset factory timing modes.
In fact, because the monitor is multi-scanning, it can accept any signal
within its frequency range of 30-70kHz horizontal and 50-140Hz vertical.
If, however, you would like to use one of the preset timing modes, please
refer to your display adapter manufacturer’s installation guide for
instructions on how to make these changes. The refresh rate is controlled
by the display adapter. Most display adapters provide a software utility or
hardware DIP switches that allow you to change the frequency used for
each resolution.

The power management feature of the AGX700 enables the monitor to
recognize VESA DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling) signals
from an VESA DPMS video adapter and power down to less than 8 watts
of power consumption. A VESA DPMS compatible video adapter achieves
the signaling by setting horizontal, vertical, or both synchronization signals
to inactive. The AGX700 recognizes all four types of signals and enters
into the appropriate mode. In Standby, Suspend and Active Off modes,
the AGX700 still maintains a detection and CRT heater circuitry to ensure
fast recovery time when both synchronization signals are active again.
The power management feature of the AGX700 is comprised of four
stages: On (green), Standby (amber), Suspend (amber/green), and
Active Off (amber/green). In the Standby and Suspend modes, the high
voltage function of the monitor shuts down while the heater circuitry
remains active. In the Active Off mode, all circuitry in the monitor is shut
down except for a low power detection circuit. This circuit allows the
monitor to “wake up” when the mouse is moved or a key on the keyboard
is pressed.

Make sure all of the power connections are secure. If the monitor is plugged into a surge protector, make sure the surge protector is switched on.
Check all the signal cable connections and make sure that they are secure. Adjust both the contrast and brightness controls to the highest settings. If
you see a faint gray color appearing on the screen, the monitor is functioning properly but not receiving any signal from the computer’s display adapter.
Also, the AGX700 features a self test screen. You can activate the self test screen by turning off the monitor, detaching the signal cable from the
computer and turning the monitor back on. A self test screen will appear showing three distinct red (left), green (center) and blue (right) squares. If you
can see this screen with all three distinct colors in the proper positions, your monitor is working properly.
You can activate the self test screen (described above) to determine if the monitor is working properly. If you can see the three distinct red, green and
blue squares, your monitor is working properly. Please check your connector cable and display adapter and/or display driver. Make sure that no pins in
the connector are bent and that the connection to the monitor and computer are secure.
The sound you hear indicates that the degauss function is activated. Every time the monitor is switched on, it will go through the degaussing process
which helps eliminate any purity problems.
The frequency and resolution displayed on a monitor is controlled by the display driver and operating system. The monitor simply responds to the signal it
receives from the display adapter and is not able to change the resolution on its own. Most display adapter manufacturers provide software drivers and
utilities that allow you to use different resolutions for different applications. Please consult your display adapter manual or dealer for more information.

The microprocessor allows precise screen size control of the image for several different modes. Normally, the image size will vary when changing
between different resolutions. With the microprocessor, the monitor is able to remember the size for each different mode and recall them automatically.
In order to fully utilize the Plug and Play feature, the computer must be equipped with a Plug and Play (DDC2B) display adapter and running with a
Plug and Play capable operating system (for example, Windows 95) or utility program that enables the Plug and Play function automatically.
Trinitron® CRT uses rows of very fine metal strips that run vertically down the screen. In order to stabilize these fine strips from shimmering, two
horizontal wires are put across the vertical strips. These tow lines are usually visible only when looking at a bright, solid background.
The refresh rate is controlled by the display adapter. Most display adapters provide a software utility or hardware DIP switches that allows you to
change the frequency used for each resolution.
Maximum refresh rates depend on the display adapter support. As far as monitor specification limitations are concerned, they are approximately:
640 x 480 at 135Hz
800 x 600 at 110Hz
1024 x 768 at 87Hz
1280 x 1024 at 66Hz

The earth’s magnetic field may be interfering with the magnetic field generated by the monitor causing a slight rotation of the image. The higher the
performance of a monitor, the more susceptible will the monitor be to such interference. To get the best alignment, orient the monitor so that the face
of the screen faces east, and choose the Rotation control from the OSD menu.
A slight amount of pincushion will be normal for the display however, an excessive amount is not allowable. To correct for this distortion, choose the
Pincushion control from the OSD menu. In general, you should expect to see less than 3/16” pincushion when measured with the naked eye.
One of the limitations of a CRT screen is that it is impossible for the focus to be uniform across the entire area. In general, a monitor is adjusted so that
the focus is best in an area around the center, in which case the overall focus is optimized. However, the image in the corner should always be
readable.
The ghosting may be due to a reflection in the signal. This usually occurs if an extension signal cable is installed or if the signal cable is not fastened to
the back of the display adapter.
The AGX700 monitor was released after Windows 95/98. An additional monitor INF file (PGS.INF) may be needed for Windows 95/98. The file and
instructions can be found on the CD-ROM included with your monitor or it can be downloaded via the internet at www.prgr.com.
