Adjusting the screen resolution
Adjusting the screen resolution
Due to the nature of liquid crystal display (LCD) technology, the picture resolution is always
fixed. For the best display performance, please set the display to its maximum resolution that is
the same with the monitor aspect ratio. This is called “Native Resolution” or maximal resolution
– that is, the clearest picture. Please refer to the table below for the native resolution of your
LCD. Lower resolutions are displayed on a full screen through an interpolation circuit. Image
blurring across pixel boundaries can occur with the interpolated resolution depending upon the
image type and its initial resolution.

image scaling options can be found in the “Display Mode” adjustment. See the user manual for
more information.

• To take full advantage of LCD technology you should select the native resolution setting of your PC screen as
described below. Be aware that not all PC video cards provide this resolution value. If yours doesn't, check
with the video card manufacturer's website for an updated driver for your particular model PC video card
which supports this resolution. Software video drivers are often updated and available for new hardware video
resolutions. If necessary, you may need to replace and update the PC video card hardware to be able to
support the native resolution of the monitor.
• Depending on the operating system on your PC, different procedures should be followed to adjust the screen
resolution. Refer to the help document of your operating system for details.
If you select some other resolution, be aware that this other resolution is interpolated and may not accurately
display the screen image as well as it could do at the native resolution setting.
