Identifying Your Lg Monitor: A Step-By-Step Guide

If you want to find out what model of LG monitor you have, the simplest way is to locate the model number. This can usually be found printed along the top or bottom edge of the monitor, or on a sticker on the back of the monitor. If you are unable to find the model number, you can try removing the stand to locate the sticker, as sometimes the stand can obscure the sticker. Once you have the model number, you can search for it online to find out the specific model of your LG monitor.

Check the rear panel of the monitor

If you want to identify your LG monitor, the best way is to check the rear panel of the monitor. The model number and serial number are usually printed on a sticker on the back of the monitor. The sticker can be found underneath where the stand connects to the display. If you cannot see it, you may need to remove the stand to locate it. If you cannot find the sticker, try looking in the area where the port connectors are located. If you still cannot find the sticker, turn the monitor upside down and check the bottom of the monitor.

If you are unable to locate the sticker on the rear panel, you can try finding the model number along the top or bottom edge of the monitor.

Check the TV settings

If you have an LG TV, there are several ways to find out its model number. The model number can be found on the rear panel of the TV, through the TV settings, or through the Hotkey menu.

If your LG TV remote and TV are working, you can do the following:

• Exit all internal menus and apps on your LG TV.
• Press the "More" button on your LG remote repeatedly until "Select a menu item" pops up on the screen.
• If done correctly, a menu will appear with the TV information.

If you have a working remote but your TV is not working, you can try the following:

• For WebOS 2.4 – WebOS 5.0: Press the setting button on your remote control and select "All Settings" → "Support" → "TV Information".
• For WebOS 4.5 or older: Press the setting button on your remote control and select "All Settings" → "General" → "About this TV" → "TV Information".

If your remote is not working either, you can try the following:

• Turn on the TV and press the "More" button on your LG TV remote.
• Select the "Gear Icon" to open the Settings menu.
• Then select "TV Information".

Once you have the model number, you can use it to look up your TV on the LG website and access the specifications, user manuals, and other support information.

In addition to the model number, you can also find the resolution and refresh rate of your LG monitor by adjusting the display settings. Right-click in the background and select "Display Settings". From there, you can change the resolution and refresh rate to optimize the display to the highest resolution and refresh rate supported.

Check the Hotkey menu

If you want to find out what LG monitor you have, you can check the Hotkey menu. Here is a step-by-step guide:

• Ensure that your LG monitor is turned off.
• Press and hold the "Menu" button on the monitor. Do not release the button yet.
• While still holding the "Menu" button, press the "Power" button to turn on the monitor.
• Once the monitor is turned on, release the "Menu" button.
• Press the "Menu" button again to access the secret menu.
• Navigate through the secret menu to find information about your monitor, such as the model name or number.

It is important to note that the steps to access the secret menu may vary slightly between different models of LG monitors. In some cases, you may need to perform a specific button sequence while the monitor is turned off, such as pressing the left arrow button three times followed by the right arrow button.

Additionally, some LG monitors may have a joystick instead of traditional buttons. For these monitors, you can try pressing and holding the joystick in a specific direction while powering on the monitor to access the secret menu.

If you are unable to access the secret menu using the above methods, you may need to refer to the specific instructions for your monitor model or contact LG customer support for further assistance.

Check the sticker on the back of the monitor

If you want to know what model of LG monitor you have, the simplest way is to check the sticker on the back of the monitor. This sticker will display the serial number and model of the monitor. If you can't find the sticker, try looking along the top or bottom edge of the monitor, as sometimes the model number is printed here.

If your monitor is still attached to its stand, you may need to remove the stand to locate the sticker. The sticker may be located underneath where the stand connects to the display.

If you are unable to find the sticker or the model number along the top or bottom edge, you can try searching for the serial number instead. Serial numbers are usually found in the area where the port connectors are located. If not there, turn the monitor upside down and look at the bottom.

Once you have the model number or serial number, you can search for it online to find out more information about your monitor.

Check the box the monitor was shipped in

If you still have the box your LG monitor was shipped in, you can check the box for the model and serial number. The model number is usually a number followed by four letters, and the serial number is usually a seven-digit number. You can use the model number to look up your monitor on the LG website and access detailed information about its specifications, features, and compatible accessories.

The box may also include the monitor's specifications, such as screen size, resolution, and refresh rate, which can help you identify the model. If you can't find the model or serial number on the box, you can try looking for a manual or documentation that came with the monitor, which should include this information.

In addition to the box, you can also check the back, top, or sides of the monitor for a sticker or label that contains the model and serial number. The model number is typically a six-digit number followed by a letter or sometimes two. For example, "22TLS56P." The serial number is usually printed below or next to the model number.

If you're still unable to find the model or serial number, you can try contacting LG customer service for assistance. They may be able to provide you with the information you need or guide you through other methods of identification.
