Frequently Asked Questions - FLEXSCAN T566 EIZO

How to connect two computers to the monitor?

Use the BNC and D-Sub connectors on the back. Switch between inputs using the BNC/D-Sub selection button on the front. You can set the input priority in the ScreenManager menu (option Input Priority).

What to do if the image shakes?

First check that the signal cable is properly connected. Move the monitor away from sources of magnetic field (speakers, motors, etc.). Adjust the Moiré Reduction in ScreenManager (lower value or 0%). If the problem persists, move or reposition the monitor.

How to set power saving?

In the ScreenManager menu, select PowerManager to enable management according to VESA DPMS standard. You can also use the Off Timer to program a standby after 1 to 23 hours of inactivity.

Why does the screen display 'No signal detected'?

This message appears if no signal is received. Check that the computer is on and the signal cable is properly connected. Press the BNC/D-Sub button to change the active input. If the message persists, restart the computer.

How to clean the screen and casing?

Unplug the monitor before any cleaning. For the casing, use a soft cloth slightly damp with mild detergent. For the screen, a soft cotton cloth or optical paper is sufficient. Never use thinner, benzene, alcohol or strong solvent.

What to do if 'Out of range' is displayed?

This message indicates that the display frequency is not compatible. Change the resolution or frequency via your graphics card software (for example, switch to 1280x1024 at 85 Hz). Consult the table of preset frequencies in the manual.

How to use Fine Contrast mode?

Press the AUTO/FINE MODE button briefly to cycle through modes: Text, Browser, Picture, Graphic, Movie. Each mode optimizes brightness and contrast for the application. You can also independently adjust the color temperature in each mode.

The screen flickers, how to fix it?

Flicker is due to a refresh rate that is too low. In the graphics card settings, increase the vertical frequency (at least 85 Hz). All EIZO monitors support high frequencies in non-interlaced scanning.

What to do if colors are abnormal?

Let the monitor warm up for 30 minutes to stabilize colors. Use the Color Restoration function in ScreenManager to compensate for variations due to aging. You can also perform a Degauss (demagnetization) via the Others menu.

How to lock the settings to prevent accidental changes?

To lock, hold down the AUTO/FINE MODE button while turning on the monitor. To unlock, turn off the monitor, then turn it on again while holding the same button. Locking blocks ScreenManager adjustments and the mode button.

You have just purchased a TCO'99 approved and labelled product! Your choice has provided you with a product developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further development of environmentally adapted electronics products.

Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?

In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.

There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.

What does labelling involve?

This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for international and environmental labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration).

Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical and fire safety.

The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its operational policy.

The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.

Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and good usability. You will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met by this product on the right. The complete environmental criteria document may be ordered from:

Environmental Requirements

Flame retardants

Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings.

Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur.

The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.

Cadmium\*\*

Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.

The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.

Mercury\*\*

Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.

The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated with the labelled unit.

CFCs (freons)

The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.

Lead**

Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning.

The relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.

• Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms.
  ** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
