Troubleshooting and error codes
| Problem | LED status | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| No picture visible | Blue | Using the OSD, adjust brightness and contrast to maximum or reset to their default settings. |
| Off | Check the power switch. | |
| Amber | Check if the power cord is properly connected to the monitor. | |
| Unstable picture | Check if the video signal cable is properly connected at the back of monitor. Check if the computer system is switched on and in power saving/ standby mode. | |
| Abnormal picture | Image is missing, off-center, too large or too small on the screen. | Check if the specification of graphics adapter and monitor is in compliance which may be causing the input signal frequency mismatch. Using the OSD, adjust focus, clock, H-position and V-position with non-standard signals. Check the display setting on your system. In case of a missing image, please select another resolution or vertical refresh rate. Wait for a few seconds after adjusting the size of the image before changing or disconnecting the signal cable or switching off the monitor. |
