NEC 20WMGX2 help

[prtuc2]

I got that monitor last year as a refurbish product I seen many people can find out how many hours that their monitors been used, how can I find out mine?

I got another question which is I heard many great comments regarding on a 30" inch monitor, can anyone just post an image comparison between their 30" (2560 X1600) vs other resolution would love to see it the difference myself then jump on one.

Thanks for reading.

If I remember correctly you do not enter the service menu to check the hours.
1. Press MENU/EXIT to enter the user menu.
2. Press LEFT to go to the monitor information screen.
3. Press and hold MENU or SELECT (not sure which one) and push up on the toggle button.

It should pop up with the hours.

Yes, that's a much better answer - I thought there was a way to look at just the hours, but couldn't find it or remember for sure.

The procedure, which I just experimented with, is:

1. Press MENU/EXIT to enter the user menu.
2. Press LEFT to go to the monitor information screen.
3. Press and hold RESET/DV MODE and push UP on the toggle button to get the hours the monitor has been on.

This includes the time it has been in sleep mode, and refurbished monitors may have had the tube replaced so it may not mean much.
