Calculating Breaks
When viewing screens for extended periods, it is recommended to take periodic breaks from viewing. Short breaks of at least 10 minutes are recommended after one (1) hour of continuous viewing.

Taking shorter, more frequent breaks are generally more beneficial than longer, less frequent breaks.

Focus Fatigue (20-20-20 Rule)
To reduce the risk of eye fatigue by constantly looking at the screen, look away from the screen at least every 20 minutes and gaze at a distant object (at least 20 feet away) for at least 20 seconds.

Looking at Distant Objects
While taking breaks, users can further reduce eye strain and dryness by focusing on objects that are further away from them for 10-15 seconds, then gaze at something up close for 10-15 seconds. Repeat this up to 10 times. This exercise reduces the risk of your eyes’ focusing ability to “lock up” after prolonged computer work.

Eye and Neck Exercises
Eye Exercises
Eye exercises can help minimize eye strain. Slowly roll your eyes to the left, right, up, and down. Repeat as many times as needed.

Neck Exercises
Neck exercises can also help minimize eye strain. Relax your arms and let them hang at your sides, bend forward slightly to stretch the neck, turn your head to the right and to the left. Repeat as many times as needed.

Adjust Settings (VGA only)

Press ▼ on the remote control and select the Adjust menu.
Press ▼/▲/◄/► on the remote control or directly touch the option to select it.
Adjust your preference by touching each value directly, or with the remote control by pressing ENTER.

Button Lock	1. Lock all buttons on the front panel and RCU, except for “Power” 2. All the SET functions should be workable via RS-232, even the ones with according hot key in RCU like Mute,…etc.
MENU Lock	1. Lock “MENU’ key of front panel and RCU 2. The Factory and Hospitality modes should not be blocked for the model using MENU-combined key to enter these two modes. Alternative approach will be indicated separately if any limitation by model.
POWER Lock	1. Lock “POWER” key on the front and RCU. 2. The SET_POWER on/off should be workable via RS-232, but does not mean the POWER lock will be released under this case. 3. Can not be unlocked by reset in OSD setting 4. Will auto AC power-on in power-lock 5. Under power-lock, the set will not enter power saving when no PC signal and neither not turn off when no other video signals after 15 minutes.
Remote control disable	Lock the RCU keys, but keep the front panel buttons workable.

Remote Control Pass-Through Mode

When the PC sets the Display to Remote Control Pass through mode, the Display shall send a 7-byte packet (followed by “CR”) in response to remote control unit (RCU) button activation. In this mode the remote control shall have no effect on the Display function. For example: “Volume+” will not change the volume of the Display, but instead only sends the “Volume+” code to the PC over the RS-232 port.

Using the ViewBoard Safely

Please read the following Safety Precautions before you start using the device.

Keep this user guide in a safe place for later reference.
Read all warnings and follow all instructions.
Do not use the device near water. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the device to moisture.
Never remove the rear cover. This display contains high-voltage parts. You may be seriously injured if you touch them.
Avoid exposing the device to direct sunlight or other sources of sustained heat.
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other devices (including amplifiers) that may increase the temperature of the device to dangerous levels.
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the external housing.
When moving the device, be careful not to drop or bump the device on anything.
Do not place the device on an uneven or unstable surface. The device may fall over resulting in an injury or a malfunction.
Do not place any heavy objects on the device or connection cables.
If smoke, an abnormal noise, or a strange odor is present, immediately turn the device off and call your dealer or ViewSonic®. It is dangerous to continue using the device.
The device is a monitor with an LED backlight intended for general office use.
Do not attempt to circumvent the safety provisions of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade and the third prong are provided for your safety. If the plug does not fit into your outlet, obtain an adapter and do not attempt to force the plug into the outlet.

When connecting to a power outlet, DO NOT remove the grounding prong. Please ensure grounding prongs are NEVER REMOVED.
Protect the power cord from being treaded upon or pinched, particularly at the plug, and at the point where it emerges from the equipment. Ensure that the power outlet is located near the equipment so that it is easily accessible.
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
When a cart is used, use with caution when moving the cart/equipment combination to avoid injury from tipping over.
Disconnect the power plug from the AC outlet if the device is not being used for a long period of time.
Place the device in a well-ventilated area. Do not place anything on the device that prevents heat dissipation.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Service will be required when the unit has been damaged in any way, such as:
- if the power supply cord or plug is damaged
- if liquid is spilled onto or objects fall in the unit
- if the unit is exposed to moisture
- if the unit does not operate normally or has been dropped

IMPORTANT

To ensure the optimal performance and longevity of your display, it is essential to follow the recommended handling, mounting, and storage procedures. Placing the display in a horizontal position can lead to a range of potential issues, including:

Excessive stress on the display's structural components, resulting in the formation of cracks or distortions along the edges.
Uneven weight distribution, which can cause the screen to warp, sustain internal damage, or crack over time.
Thermal-related damage, as the internal components may not be able to dissipate heat as intended, leading to potential failure or permanent damage.

Furthermore, altering the display's form can also compromise the integrity of its internal components, including the sensitive LCD cells, which can result in a permanent degradation of the display's quality.

To prevent such issues and maintain the display's optimal condition, it is recommended to always mount, handle, transport, and store it in a vertical position. Failure to do so may void the warranty and compromise the display's performance and lifespan.

Note: Any damage resulting from the misuse or improper handling of the display is not covered under warranty.

CAUTION

Immediately unplug your device from the wall outlet and refer servicing to a qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
If liquid has been spilled onto or objects have fallen into the unit.
If the unit has been exposed to moisture.
If the unit does not operate normally or has been dropped.

Never place the device in an unstable location. The device may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the device.
Only using furniture that can safely support the device.
Ensuring the device is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
Not placing the device on tall furniture (e.g., cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the device to a suitable support.
Not placing the device on cloth or other materials that may be located between the device and supporting furniture.
Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the device or its controls.

If the existing device is going to be retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.
