2405Fpw US to UK

[rasjunk]

The monitor's documentation says it can handle 110-240volts. I plugged it into a UK outlet with only a physical plug adapter (leaving the electricty untouched). When I turned it on the screen goes crazy and then it turns itself off a few seconds later.. I'm guessing I need something else?

What is it's claimed input AC frequency tollerance? It should say something like 30-60Hz...

AC input voltage / frequency / current: 100 to 240 VAC / 50 or 60 Hz + 3 Hz / 1.6A (Max.)

Inrush current 120V: 30A (Max.): 240V: 50A (Max.)

Sounds like it should work fine. I take it that you know it works OK on US AC (i.e. you have tried it in the US)?

Maybe they sent you the wrong adapter.

Yeah, no problem in the US.. I guess i'll go home and try it again. Thanks

I'm using a standard plug adapter. It only changes the shape of the plug, nothing else
