Using Picture-in-Picture (PIP)
Picture-in-Picture (PIP) is a convenient way to view video from multiple video sources at the same
time. Refer to the following chart to determine which combinations of video sources can be used
as a PIP display.
* Only 480i component (Y Pb Pr) video can be used with VGA as a PIP. With this combination, the Swap feature is not available. To
switch to full-screen component video when 480i content is used as a PIP, touch Input on the side of the monitor.
If a 480p source is input to the Y Pb Pr jacks and Y Pb Pr is a PIP display within a VGA main display, then the PIP image will be distorted.
Change the output of your external Y Pb Pr device to 480i if PIP is required with VGA to eliminate the PIP distortion. For more
information, see your Y Pb Pr device’s user guide.
** For some video resolutions, refresh rates, and video scaling modes, PIP may not be allowed. If you receive a message that PIP is not
available, try the following:
■
Adjust the refresh rate in Windows to 60 Hz. See Windows online Help for more information.
■
Adjust the video scaling mode to Wide on the monitor.
■
Change the resolution of the Windows desktop to match the monitor’s full resolution of 1920 × 1200. For more information see
“Changing color depth and screen resolution” on page 16.
Audio menu
(available when
optional speaker
bar is connected)
Volume—Adjusts volume.
Bass—Adjusts bass tones.
Treble—Adjusts treble tones.
3D Audio—Enables simulated surround sound.
Audio Source—Selects the audio source. Allows the audio source to be set to the main or PIP window.
When set to PIP window and the PIP is displayed on screen, the audio being played switches from the main
to the PIP window. When the PIP window is closed, the main audio is heard. When set to main, PIP audio
is only heard when the PIP is set to full screen.
Audio Switching—Maps the PC audio and RCA audio inputs to specific video inputs. The HDMI audio is
fixed to the HDMI video signal and cannot be mapped.
Advanced menu
Color—Customizes the color levels.
Language—Changes the language of the OSD.
LED Mode—Changes the brightness of the Standby and Power LED to Day Mode or Nite Mode. When
watching movies in a darkened room, you may want to change the LED mode to Nite Mode to avoid an
over-bright, distracting power LED indicator.
DVI Video mode—Changes the DVI video mode by enabling either RGB Color Space (used for digital input)
and YUV Color Space (used for analog TV input such as NTSC, PAL, and SECAM).
Audio Feedback—Changes the volume of the sounds that accompany button presses. Decrease all the way
down to completely mute the button tones.
Information—Displays current screen resolution and input source for the main display.
Resolution reminder—If the computer display input (VGA, DVI, and HDMI) is not set to 1920 × 1200,
displays a reminder that you should change your computer’s settings to use the optimum 1920 × 1200
resolution. If you prefer using your monitor at a resolution less than 1920 × 1200, use this option to turn
off the Resolution Reminder. For information on changing your computer’s display resolution, see “Changing
Windows screen settings” on page 16.
UltraResponse—Enables the monitor to work at a faster refresh rate. If you experience video quality issues
with shadows in fast moving images, you may disable this function to go back to the native LCD panel
response time.
Reset All—Resets all values to the factory settings.
