Troubleshooting Guide

Issue

The display you want to control does not appear on the system information chart.

The display you want to control does not appear on the other

Control Info Grids.

The following message appears repeatedly.

Solution

1.

Check the connection of the RS232C cable (check that the cable is properly connected to appropriate serial port).

2.

Check that another display with a duplicate ID is not connected. Connecting displays with a duplicate ID can cause the displays not to be shown due to data collision.

3.

Check that the display ID is within the range of 0 and 99.

(Change the ID using the Display menu.)

For a display that supports the ID in a range of 0 to 99, the ID should be set between 0 and 99.

Check that the display is powered on. (See the power status in the system information chart.)

Ensure you select the input source the display is connected to.

Check that the display you want to control is selected.

Displays power on or off at different time from one another even though

On Time or Off Time is set.

Adjust the time on the PC to synchronize the time between the connected displays.

The remote control does not work.

The remote control may not work if the RS-232C cable is removed or the program is closed abnormally while the Remote

Control function is Disable . To resolve this, run the program again and set Remote Control to Enable .

This program may malfunction sometimes due to a communication problem between the PC and display or electromagnetic waves emitted from nearby electronic devices.

Connecting to a Wireless Network

To connect your product to your wireless network, you need a wireless router or modem and a Samsung

Wireless LAN adapter (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2 or WIS10ABGN - sold separately), which you connect to your product back or side panel USB port. See the illustration below.

Samsung Wireles LAN Adapter

LAN Cable

Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately and is offered by selected retailers, Ecommerce sites, and Samsungparts.com. Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g and n communication protocols. Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11n. When you play video over a network connection, the video may not play smoothly.

You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN adapter” (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2 or

WIS10ABGN) to use a wireless network.

The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and the USB extension Cable are sold separately and are offered by select retailers, Ecommerce sites, and Samsungparts.com.

To use a wireless network, your product must be connected to a wireless IP sharer (either a router or a modem). If the wireless IP sharer supports DHCP, your product can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.

Select a channel for the wireless IP sharer that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the wireless IP sharer is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference and communication failure.

Your product supports only the following wireless network security protocols:

Authentication Mode : WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK

Encryption Type : WEP, TKIP, AES.

If you select the Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and the Encryption type is set to

WEP, TKIP or TKIP AES (WPS2Mixed) on your AP or wireless router, Samsung product will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.

If your wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via

PBC (Push Button Configuration) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key in either mode.

If your router, modem, or device is not certified, it may not connect to the product via the

“Samsung Wireless LAN adapter.”

Ensure the product is turned on before you connect the Samsung Wireless LAN adapter.

Optimum Picture Quality and Afterimage Burn-in Prevention

Optimum Picture Quality

To enjoy the optimum picture quality, go to Control Panel on your PC and adjust the resolution and refresh rate as follows. The picture quality of TFT-LCDs may degrade if the optimum resolution is not selected.

Resolution: 1920 X 1080

Vertical frequency (refresh rate): 60Hz

Due to the nature of the manufacturing of this product, approximately 1 pixel per million (1ppm) may be brighter or darker on the panel. This does not affect product performance.

The number of sub-pixels by panel type: 40, 46, 55 : 6,220,800

Run " Auto Adjustment " to improve the picture quality. If noise is still found even after auto adjustment, adjust Coarse or Fine .

Leaving the screen fixed on a stationary image for an extended period of time may cause afterimage burn-in or defective pixels.

Activate power-saving mode or a dynamic screen saver if you will not be using the product for an extended period of time.

Unlike CDT monitors, TFT-LCD monitors (due to the nature of the panel) can be set to only one resolution to obtain the optimum picture quality. Therefore, setting a resolution other than the specified resolution may degrade the picture quality. To avoid this, it is recommended that you select the optimum resolution specified for your monitor.

Appendix

Appendix

Prevention of Afterimage Burn-in

What is afterimage burn-in?

Afterimage burn-in should not occur when the LCD panel is operating normally. Normal operation refers to a continuously changing video pattern. If the LCD panel displays a fixed pattern for an extended period of time (more than 12 hours), a slight voltage difference may occur between the electrodes in pixels that control the liquid crystals.

Such a voltage difference between electrodes increases with time and makes the liquid crystals thinner.

When this occurs, a previous image can remain on the screen when the pattern changes. To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference should be reduced.

Terminology

OSD(On Screen Display)

On screen display (OSD) allows you to configure on-screen settings to optimize the picture quality as required. It allows you to change the screen brightness, tint, size and many other settings using menus displayed on the screen.

Gamma

The Gamma menu adjusts the grey scale that represents middle tones on the screen. Adjusting the brightness brightens the whole screen, but adjusting Gamma only brightens the medium brightness.

Gray Scale

Scale refers to levels of color intensity that show variations of color change from darker areas to brighter areas on the screen. Changes to the screen brightness are expressed with black and white variation, and grey scale refers to the medium area between black and white. Changing the grey scale through Gamma adjustment will change the medium brightness on the screen.

Scanning rate

Scanning rate, or refresh rate, refers to the frequency of screen refreshes. Screen data is transmitted as it refreshes to display an image, although the refreshing is invisible to the naked eye. The number of screen refreshes is called scanning rate and is measured in Hz. A scanning rate of 60Hz means that the screen refreshes 60 times per second. The screen scanning rate depends on the performance of the graphics cards in your PC and product.

Horizontal Frequency

Characters or images displayed on the product screen consist of numerous dots (pixels). Pixels are transmitted in horizontal lines, which are then arranged vertically to create an image. The horizontal frequency is measured in kHz and represents how many times horizontal lines per second are transmitted and displayed on the product screen. A horizontal frequency of 85 means that the horizontal lines that make up an image are transmitted 85 000 times per second, and the horizontal frequency is indicated in 85kHz.

Vertical Frequency

One image is made of numerous horizontal lines. The vertical frequency is measured in Hz and represents how many images can be created per second by those horizontal lines. A vertical frequency of 60 means that an image is transmitted 60 times per second. The vertical frequency is also called "refresh rate" and affects screen flicker.

Appendix

211

Appendix

Resolution

Resolution is the number of horizontal pixels and vertical pixels that form a screen. It represents the level of display detail.

A higher resolution displays a greater amount of information on the screen and is suitable for performing multiple tasks at the same time.

E.g. A resolution of 1920 x 1080 consists of 1,920 horizontal pixels (horizontal frequency) and 1,080 vertical lines (vertical resolution).

Plug & Play

The Plug & Play feature allows the automatic exchange of information between a product and PC to produce an optimum display environment.

The product uses VESA DDC (international standard) to execute Plug & Play.
