Customizing Your Monitor Technical Features nn Selecting the Graphic Picture Enhancement (GPE) Mode The Graphic Picture Enhancement (GPE) button allows you to automatically change the characteristics of the picture on the screen to match the use of your monitor. Simply press the GPE button to scroll between the three modes. 1 Turn on the monitor and computer. 2 Press the GPE button to set the mode. GPE Each time you press the GPE button, the mode appears on the screen and changes as follows. n STANDARD MODE PRESENTATION MODE GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE The STANDARD MODE is ideal for spreadsheets, word processing, and other text oriented applications. The PRESENTATION MODE is useful for presentation programs that require vivid colors. The GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE gives movies and games enhanced visual appeal by increasing the sharpness and brightness. The selected mode indication appears on the screen for about 3 seconds. If the screen appears too white, adjust the color temperature as explained in "Using the COLOR On-screen Display" on page 11. Note The PRESENTATION MODE and GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE may produce ghost images when displaying text oriented applications. These modes change the brightness of the picture dynamically according to changes in moving pictures. If ghost images appear, set the GPE to STANDARD MODE. 16 Preset and User Modes The monitor has factory preset modes for the 9 (CPD100GS) or 10 (CPD-200GS) most popular industry standards for true "plug and play" capability.
