FAQs

How do I adjust the monitor's settings?

Use the buttons located on the monitor to access the on-screen display (OSD) menu. From there, you can adjust brightness, contrast, color settings, and other display parameters.

What is the refresh rate, and why is it important?

The refresh rate is the number of times the image on the screen is updated per second, measured in Hertz (Hz). A higher refresh rate, like the GW2790's 100Hz, results in smoother motion, reducing blur and improving the viewing experience, especially during fast-paced action or scrolling.

What is Brightness Intelligence technology?

Brightness Intelligence (B.I. Tech.) detects content intensity to avoid overexposure of bright scenes while enhancing dark areas to maintain clear visibility. It also actively adjusts the screen brightness for comfortable viewing.

Does the monitor have built-in speakers?

Yes, the GW2790 has built-in speakers.

What is the warranty period?

The standard warranty period is two years.

Can I mount the monitor on a wall?

Yes, the GW2790 supports VESA mounting with a 100 x 100 mm pattern.

What is the purpose of ePaper Mode?

ePaper Mode simulates an e-book display by balancing the text and background, making long reading sessions easier on the eyes.

How do I switch between different input sources?

There is an input switch key on the monitor for easy switching.

Troubleshooting

Monitor won't turn on.

Check the power cable connection and ensure the power outlet is working. Try a different power outlet. If the monitor still does not turn on, check the power button and consult the user manual.

No picture or distorted image.

Check the video cable connections (HDMI or DisplayPort). Ensure the cable is securely connected to both the monitor and the device. Try a different cable. Check the input source setting on the monitor.

Poor image quality or blurry text.

Make sure the monitor is set to its native resolution (1920 x 1080). Adjust the brightness and contrast settings in the OSD. Check the graphics card drivers are up to date.

Audio not working (if using built-in speakers).

Ensure the audio cable is connected correctly (if applicable). Check the volume settings on both the monitor and the connected device. Select the correct audio output in your device's settings.
