  4. If you want to use LT12S/SB or FT15/15G with Macintosh (Apple):
    They are compatible with Macintosh. However, they have to be connected to Power Macintosh by using IBM VGA card. The LCD panels are not compatible with conventional Macintosh because they have separate / composite sync, whereas, the conventional Macintosh uses sync on green.

  5. If you want to know the resolution mode that LT12S/SB supports:
    Name Mode FH (KHz) FV (Hz)
    VGA 640x350 31.5 70.0
    IBM VGA 640x480 31.5 60.0
    VESA 640x480 37.9 72.8
    VESA 800x600 37.9 60.0

    Note: The LT12S/SB only provides full screen at 800x600 mode (Refer to question# 3)
    Please refer to Standard Timing Table on User's Manual.

  7. If you want to use LCD Panels with different voltages standard:
    Yes, you can use them in different countries with different voltages standard because the included AC Adapters are universal AC Adapters.

    For LT12S/12SB AC adapter --- 90-260V, 50/60Hz
    For FT15/15G AC adapter ------ 100-240V, 50/60Hz

  8. If you want to hook up a TV signal input (cable, antenna, VCR, etc.) to LCD Panels:
    Yes, you can. However, you need an interface card in your computer to do that.

  10. If you want to install Win'95 driver for LCD Panels:
    Please do the following steps:
    1. Download the Win95 driver.
    2. Save the file into a diskette.
    3. In Win'95, click the following sequence in Desktop: My Computer, Control Panel, Display, Setting, Advanced Properties/Change Display Type, Monitor, Change, and Have disk
    4. Insert your driver diskette.
    5. It will start installing automatically.
    6. Select the proper P/N# (product number). Please check on the back label/rating
    7. Click on Apply button
    8. Restart Win'95

  11. If you want to use LCD panel for Win NT 4.0:
    It is not necessary to install the driver.  LCD is compatible with Win NT 4.0 because you can select the mode and the refresh rate manually.
    BackBack

  12. If you have a fuzzy/blurry/unclear display:
    The LT12S/SB was pre-adjusted in the factory with standard VGA timing. Due to output timing differences among various VGA cards, you may initially experience an unstable and/or unclear display when a new display mode or new VGA card is selected.

    To stabilize and clarify your display, follow this procedure in this order:
    1. To stabilize, adjust the monitor's Frequency/Clock setting.
    2. To clarify, adjust the monitor's Focus/Phase setting for a clear picture.

    It may be necessary to go back to 1st step, readjust the Frequency/Clock and then readjust the Focus/Phase until both settings together achieve a stable focused image. Alternating between these two settings may be necessary before the best balance is achieved.

    If you use extension cable to connect your LCD monitors to your PC system, please check you extension cable or connect your LCD monitors directly to your PC system.

  13. If you do not have display on LCD Panel:
    Please do the following steps:
    1. Make sure that the power indicator on the LCD monitor is lit. All connections are secure, and system is running on correct timing. (Refer to Question#5 for information on LT12S/12SB's timing; refer to Question#6 for information on FT15/15G's timing.)
    2. Turn off the LCD monitor and turn it back on again. Press the right Function Select Control button once and then press either left or right Adjustment Control button several times. If there is still no display, press the other Adjustment Control button several times.
    3. If 2nd step does not work, connect your PC system with another external CRT. If your PC System functions properly with a CRT monitor but it does not function with the LCD monitor, the output timing of the VGA card may be out of the LCD's synchronous range. Please change to an alternate mode listed in Question#5, for LT12S/12SB, or/and Question#6, for FT15/15G or replace the VGA card and repeat 1st and 2nd steps.

  14. If you get smaller screen on LCD Panel:
    For LT12S/12SB, you need to set it up at 800x600 mode to get full screen. (Refer to Question# 3)
    For FT15/15G, you need to set it up at 1024x768 mode to get full screen. (Refer to Question# 3)
