15 Battery Installation and Replacement The remote control is powered by two 1.5V AA batteries. 1. Turn the remote control unit upside down. Press down on the battery compartment grip and slide the compartment in the direction of the arrow. 2. Install the two new batteries, making sure that their polarity matches the (+) (-) diagrams inside the battery compartment. Incorrect polarity could damage the remote control unit. 3. Close the battery compartment cover.
17 Set the No. 1 pin to the ON/SHORT position when sync on green signals are necessary for synchronization with an external component.

23 Daisy-chaining Your monitors The REMOTE IN/OUT terminals allow you to control monitors by one remote control. NOTE: The connection of three XP29 Plus/XM29 Plus monitors or more with THROUGH OUT (VIDEO 1 or 2) terminals may degrade image quality. To do so: When using the VIDEO inputs: THROUGH OUT (VIDEO 1) Connections 1. Connect THROUGH OUT 1 BNC or S-VIDEO 1 OUT to external components to relay the signal input at VIDEO 1 IN(BNC-type), or S-VIDEO 1 IN. 2.
25 External Speaker Connections External speakers may be connected to the monitor to reproduce sound from VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, RGB 1 or RGB 2 signal sources. If non-shielded speakers are used, they must be located a minimum of 4 feet away from the monitor. External speakers may be connected directly to the EXTERNAL SPEAKERS terminals or indirectly by connecting a stereo system amplifier to the audio outputs.
27 Operation Power This section describes how to select a computer or video source and how to adjust the picture and sound. General Controls Before you turn on your MultiSync XP29 Plus/XM29 Plus monitor ensure that the computer or video source is turned on. 1)To adjust: 1. Turn On The Monitor The power button is on the front panel of the monitor. By turning this switch on, the STANDBY/POWER indicator will turn to green and the monitor will become ready to use. OSM is also usable from the front bezel.
29 Direct Control Screen You can adjust the raster, visual and sound using the direct key on the remote control. To switch to another control screen, press any one of the other keys. *To end the OSM display, press EXIT. *If no key operation is made within 3 seconds, the OSM display will disappear. a. POSITION/CONTROL Press to move the image right. Press Press to move the image up. Press c. HEIGHT Press to adjust the vertical size of the image. d.
31 i. NORMAL( visual) Press to reset all the stored adjustment visual data and recall the factory preset data. When a specific control is selected, this key resets the selected visual adjustments. j. MUTE Press to turn off the sound for a short period of time; press again to restore the sound. k. VOLUME Press to increase the sound: press to decrease the sound. When pressing a key that does not correspond to the function currently use, the following message will be displayed on the monitor.
33 H-position/H-width/Pin-cushion Controls Group V-position/V-height/V-linearity Controls Group The H-position/H-width/Pin-cushion Controls allow you to adjust the horizontal position, horizontal size and pin-cushion of the image. The V-position/V-height/V-linearity Controls allow you to adjust the vertical position, vertical size and vertical linearity of the image. H-POSITION H-WIDTH V-POSITION V-HEIGHT : Pressing + or - moves the image horizontally right or left.
35 RGB Controls Group MODE2 is used for the wide video band mode. This mode is recommended for text display. AUTO automatically selects either the high contrast mode for horizontal frequencies of less than 40 kHz, or the wide band video mode for 40 kHz or over. The RGB Controls allow you to adjust the color temperature, high contrast and the white balance for RGB input. COLOR TEMP. : Pressing + selects the color temperature: 10500 K, 9300K, 6500K or custom.
