Troubleshooting

Run the Self-test

Use the self-test procedure to verify that your monitor is running correctly. If the
monitor and computer are property connected but the monitor remains dark and
the power indicator is blinking, run the self-test.

Follow these steps to run the self-test.

1. Shut down the computer and disconnect power to the monitor.
2. Unplug the video cable from the back of the computer.
3. Apply power to the monitor.

If the monitor is functioning properly, a self-test box appears that reads:

No Signal

4. Disconnect power from your monitor and reconnect the video cable
5. Apply power to your computer and the monitor.
6. If your monitor screen remains blank after the previous procedure, check

your video controller and computer system because your monitor is
functioning properly.

IMPORTANT

This self-test box also appears during normal operation if the monitor
is disconnected or damaged.
