The Monitor Resets All The Settings That Were Programmed In Every Time The Set I

For some reason, my Samsung PPM42M6HB resets all my settings when I turn it off then back on again. It does this time and time again and I can't seem to save any of the settings after turning it off. I love the monitor so please can you help me. Also when pressing "info" it says it's in "shop mode". What is that and does that have anything to do with it's memory not being used when shut "off". Thank you, Jeff.

One thing you may consider is if you unplug the display rather than leave it connected to the supply. If you follow the settings instructions from the manual downloadable from this link

https://www.manualslib.com/manual/145360/Samsung-Ppm42m6h.html

It explains in great detail how to set up the monitor. Once you have set the configuration you only turn the monitor off via the remote control. It then goes into standby and low power mode which should keep the settings. If that does not solve the issue then there could be a problem with the ram memory being faulty and that would require an engineer.

Hope that helps.
