To adjust the screen brightness on your Acer KA2 KA272 monitor, use the buttons located at the bottom of the monitor. Press the menu button to open the OSD (On-Screen Display) menu, navigate to the brightness setting, and adjust it using the arrow buttons.
First, ensure that the monitor is properly connected to your computer and that both the monitor and computer are powered on. Check the cable connections and try using a different cable or port if available. If the issue persists, try connecting the monitor to another computer to determine if the problem lies with the monitor or the computer.
Press the source button on the monitor to bring up the input source menu. Use the arrow buttons to navigate to your desired input source (e.g., HDMI, VGA) and press the menu button to select it.
Ensure that the audio cable is connected properly if using an analog input. For HDMI, make sure the computer's sound settings are configured to output audio through the HDMI port. Check the monitor's volume settings in the OSD menu to ensure it is not muted.
To perform a factory reset, press the menu button to open the OSD menu, navigate to the 'Settings' or 'Reset' option, and select 'Factory Reset'. Confirm your selection to reset the monitor to its original settings.

Check the cable connections for any loose or damaged connections. Ensure the graphics drivers on your computer are up to date. If the issue persists, try adjusting the refresh rate in your computer's display settings.
