About the external control

The monitor has the MAKE/TRIGGER terminal, which allows you to control the monitor by the MAKE (make contact) or TRIG. (trigger) system.

MAKE (make contact) system: Controls the function by short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the

GND pin terminal, or disconnecting (opening) it.

TRIG. (trigger) system: Controls the function by inputting the pulse signal instantaneously to the corresponding pin terminal.

* Select “MAKE” or “TRIG.” from “REMOTE SYSTEM” in the SET-UP MENU.

“REMOTE SYSTEM” on page 16

NOTE:

• When using the make contact system, you cannot use the buttons on the front panel or menu to utilize functions which are controlled through the MAKE/TRIGGER terminal. (When using the trigger system, you can also use those functions using the buttons on the front panel or the menu.)

*1 The TRIG. (trigger) system switches each function by short-circuiting for approx. 1 second.

*2 External control (the 7th pin terminal) is controlled by the MAKE (make contact) system even when you select the “TRIG.” (trigger) system.

Operation

1. Short-circuit the 7th pin terminal (External control) to the 8th pin terminal (GND) so that the monitor can be controlled externally.

2. When selecting the “MAKE” (make contact) system, operate each function by short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the 8th pin terminal (GND) or opening it.

When selecting the “TRIG.” (trigger) system, operate each function by pulse control, that is short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the 8th pin terminal (GND) for about 1 second.

NOTE:

• When controlling No. 1 to 4 pin terminals by the MAKE (make contact) system, only one terminal must be short-circuited. (Other terminals must be opened.)

• When selecting the “TRIG.” (trigger) system, you can operate only one function at a time. Operate the functions one by one.

Troubleshooting

Solutions to common problems related to your monitor are described here. If none of the solutions presented here solves the problem, unplug the monitor and consult a JVC-authorized dealer or service center for assistance.

Problems Points to be checked Measures (Remedy)

No power supply

No picture with the power on

“OTHERS” or “Out of range” appears.

“NO SYNC” appears.

No sound (LM-170 only)

Wrong color, no color

Unnatural picture

Is the power plug loosened or disconnected?

Is the signal cable disconnected?

Is the power of the connected component on?

Is the signal being output from the connected component?

Firmly insert the power plug.

Connect the signal cable firmly.

Turn on the power of the connected component and set the output correctly.

Is the input selected correctly?

Is the input signal adapted to the monitor’s specification?

Select the correct input with the INPUT

SELECT buttons.

Check if the input signal format is acceptable to the monitor.



Is the input selected correctly?



Is the power of the connected component on?


Select the correct input with the INPUT

SELECT buttons.

Turn on the power of the connected component and output video signals.

Or, check if the video output of the component (video output setting of the

VCR or graphic board of the computer) is set correctly.



Is the volume set to minimum?


Turn on the power of the connected component and set the output correctly.

Adjust the volume level.

Has the picture adjustment been changed? Adjust the picture by using the buttons on the front panel or the items in “PICTURE

SUB ADJ.” in the SET-UP MENU. Or, perform “reset” in “PICTURE SUB ADJ.”

Has the white balance setting been changed?

Change “COLOR TEMP.” in the SET-UP

MENU. Or, perform “all reset” in the MAIN

MENU.

Is the correct color system selected?

Has “CONTRAST” or “BRIGHT” been changed?

Set “COLOR SYSTEM” correctly in the

MAIN MENU.

Adjust picture contrast or brightness by using the buttons on the front panel.

Or, adjust “CONTRAST” or “BRIGHT” in “PICTURE SUB ADJ.” in the SET-UP

MENU.

Problems Points to be checked Measures (Remedy)

Wrong picture position, wrong picture size

Has the picture position or size been changed?

—

Adjust the picture size (H. SIZE/V. SIZE) or position (H. POSI./V. POSI.) in “SIZE/POSI.

ADJ.” in the SET-UP MENU.

When analog RGB signals are input from the computer, perform “AUTO ADJ.” in the

MAIN MENU.

For some signals, the picture cannot be displayed fully in the effective screen area.

There is no sure method to solve this problem.



Has the SCAN SIZE button been pressed? Press the SCAN SIZE button to select

“OVER.”

Is “ASPECT” in the MAIN MENU set to

“16:9”?

Set it to “4:3.”

Change the input or the input signal.

Some items do not appear on the menu.

The items which are not available for the current input or the current input signal do not appear on the menu.

The buttons on the front panel do not function.

Is “CONTROL LOCK” in the SET-UP

MENU set to “ON”?

Has the monitor’s setting been changed to enable control by the external control connected to the REMOTE terminal?

Set it to “OFF.”

Disable the external control.

Installing the driver is required when a computer is connected.

Use the driver of the graphic board installed into your computer (the driver is supplied with the graphic board).

Or, set the monitor to the standard display.

• Recommended display setting:

1280 x 1024, 60 Hz (LM-170)

1024 x 768, 60 Hz (LM-150)

The following are not malfunctions:

• When a still image is displayed for a long time, it may remains on the screen after the picture changes. This is due to the characteristics of the LCD display and is not malfunction. The remaining picture will disappear after a while.

• The red spots, blue spots and green spots on the panel surface are a normal characteristic of LCD displays, and not a problem. The LCD display is built with very high precision technology, however, be aware that a few pixels may be missing or constantly lit.

The following symptoms are problems only when pictures or sounds are not played back normally:

• A slight electric shock occurs when you touch the monitor.

• The top and/or rear panel of the monitor becomes hot.

• The monitor emits a cracking noise.

• The monitor emits a mechanical noise.
