8. What is refresh rate?
"Refresh rate" describes the number of times an entire screen is vertically scanned each second.
In other words: If a monitor's refresh rate is 85 Hz, its screen is refreshed - or vertically scanned -
85 times per second. A higher the refresh rate means better image stability and less flicker. A high
refresh rate helps users who work long hours in front of a monitor avoid eye fatigue and stress. To
change the refresh rate, go into "Start/Settings / Control Pannel / Display / Properties /
Setting/Advance/Adaptor" Windows settings of the computer, the monitor will automatically adjust
itself to the video card.
9. Why does the picture on the screen appear to flicker?
A low refresh rate or electrical interference typically causes flickering in the picture. Possible
solutions include the following:
l
Verify that the proper drivers are installed for your video card
l
Make sure that all electrical devices (such as mobile phones) are at least 1m from the
monitor
l
Place the monitor in another physical location away from electrical interference
l
Adjust the refresh rate to 75hz or higher.
10. How do I adjust my monitor's resolution?
Available resolutions are determined by the capabilities of your video card and graphic driver.
Under Windows '95, you may select the desired available resolution through the 'Display
properties/Settings' menu.
11. How can I adjust the size, position and rotation of my screen?
Depending on the model you own, you can use your CustoMax Software, On Screen Display
(OSD) or control knobs located on the monitor.
