Potential Symptoms

  • KVM monitor will show blank screen or "Out of Range" error when selecting the DMP 8000.
  • Computer is set to a supported resolution for the KVM/monitor.
  • Navigate to "Display Settings > Advanced display settings" in Windows. The "Active signal resolution" will be different than the "Desktop resolution." (Screenshot below shows the correct settings, NOT the failed state.)
