Section 6: Basic Operation
1. Insert one end of the DP cable into your PC’s graphics card. Other
connection types may be used. Additional cables are not included.
For optimal refresh rate (or “performance”), it is recommended to use a DP
(display port) or HDMI cable with the monitor’s corresponding connector.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the corresponding connector on your
monitor. See the image below. DP Connector Power Connector
HDMI Connector Audio Output
3. Connect the power cable to your monitor then connect the other end to your
power source. It is recommended that you use a surge protector with adequate
voltage if a wall outlet cannot be reached directly.
4. Locate the power button on the monitor and press it to turn the monitor
on.
VIOTEK Adaptive Sync Adaptive sync eliminates image tearing, stuttering, and
ghosting by adjusting a monitor’s vertical refresh rate to the frame rate of
the graphics card. It is compatible with GPUs that use AMD® FreeSyncTM or
NVIDIA® G-SyncTM. The feature is off on VIOTEK monitors by default and must be
manually enabled in the monitor’s OSD (see Section 8: OSD). To use this
feature, the connecting device must be compatible with adaptive sync (FreeSync
and/or G-Sync); have the latest graphic drivers; and be connected to the
monitor using a DisplayPort (DP) cable.
Section 7: Indicator Light
Solid blue light indicates power is on and the monitor is operating normally.
Solid red light indicates no video source, no horizontal or vertical signal
has been detected or voltage is low. Please ensure your computer is on and all
video cables are fully inserted and/or connected.

Section 10: Troubleshooting
The screen is blank · Press the power button to turn the monitor on. · Confirm
the brightness and contrast settings are set normally. · Check if the
indicator light is flashing. If so, there is no signal from your video source.
· If your source is a notebook or laptop, make sure it’s powered on and set to
mirror or
extension mode. · Check all cables, incl. DP, HDMI, and audio cables, by
connecting to a different device. If
the issue follows the cable to the new device, replace the cable.
There is no audio · There are no built-in speakers on this monitor. Make sure
a 3.5mm audio cable is
connecting the monitor to your audio system (e.g., headphones, external
speaker). · Make sure the correct audio setting is selected in OSD. · Check
that volume is up and mute is off. If the volume is still low after turning it
up to the
maximum level, adjust the volume on your PC sound card or software program.
The image is out of focus · Make sure the video cable is inserted properly at
both ends. The screen is flashing · Try an alternative power source.
Insufficient power can cause this issue. · Make sure devices such as non-
shielded speakers, fluorescent lighting, AC transformers,
table fans, etc. are a safe distance away from your screen to avoid magnetic
disturbances.
The color bleeds or visual effects appear unusual. · If your screen is all red
or blue, or any colors disappear, check to see that the cable is
properly inserted. A loose connection can cause a bad signal. · Try connecting
to another video source for comparison. The screen appears to be scrolling,
rolling, or moving unusually. · Check that your source frequency is within
180Hz. · Reconnect and ensure your video cable is secure. The indicator light
does not work · Check if the power is on. · Make sure the power cable is
properly connected to the monitor and power source. Cannot plug and play. ·
Check PC requirements to make sure it is compatible with the monitor. · Check
graphics card requirements to make sure it is compatible with the monitor. Dim
image · Adjust the brightness and contrast ratio. Image jitter/moire pattern ·
Nearby electric equipment may be interfering with the monitor. Light indicator
is on or flashing, but there is no image displayed on screen · Check if the
monitor power is on. · Check if the graphics card is installed properly. ·
Make sure the power cable is properly connected to the monitor and power
source. Image position is not centered/the size is not right · Please adjust
Clock or Auto settings. Color difference (colors are not optimized) · Adjust
RGB color settings or reset color temperature.
