Troubleshooting Tips

Monitor Has No Power
If the monitor' s power indicator is off and no image appears on the display, perform the following checks:

Ensure that the power cable is fully inserted in the monitor' s power port and the electrical outlet.
Test the electrical outlet by plugging in a working electrical device such as a lamp.
•
•
Ensure that the power button has been depressed, and wait for the power indicator to light.
•
Try another power cable on the monitor. Use the computer' s power cable and turn on the monitor with the
signal cable disconnected. If the monitor is working correctly, a self-test pattern appears.

fingers.
Ensure that the computer is on.

•
Increase brightness and contrast controls.
