CUSTOM: Refer to the ADVANCED OSM Controls menu section of the user’s manual for detailed instructions. Color Control Systems Colour Control Systems: Seven colour presets select the desired colour setting (sRGB, NATIVE and PROGRAMMABLE colour presets are standard and cannot be changed). 1, 2, 3 and 5: Increases or decreases Colour temperature, Red, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, Magenta depending upon which is selected. The change in colour will appear on screen and the direction (increase or decrease) will be shown by the colour bars. NATIVE, sRGB: Original colour presented by the LCD panel that is unadjustable. PROGRAMMABLE: The colour tone that was set up with the downloaded application software is reflected. NOTE: To reset a poor image setting, turn on the monitor by using front power button while holding “EXIT” and “SELECT” buttons at the same time. Tools 1 SHARPNESS This function is digitally capable to keep crisp image at any timings. It is continuously adjustable to get distinct image or soft one as you prefer, and set independently by different timings. DVI SELECTION This function selects the DVI input mode (DVI-I). When the DVI selection has been changed, the computer has to be restarted. AUTO: By using the DVI-D to DVI-D cable, the DVI SELECTION is DIGITAL. By using the D-SUB to DVI-A cable, the DVI SELECTION is ANALOG. DIGITAL: DVI digital input is available. ANALOG: DVI analog input is available. NOTE: For the MAC with digital output: Before turning on the MAC, the DVI Input mode must be set to DIGITAL in “DVI SELECTION” of OSM by pressing “SELECT” button then “CONTROL” button when the DVI signal cable is connected to the DVI-I connector (DVI-I) of the monitor. Otherwise the MAC may not turn on. NOTE: Depending on the PC and Video card used, or when another Video signal cable is attached, this function may not operate. VIDEO DETECT Selects the method of video detection when more than one computer is connected. FIRST: The video input has to be switched to “FIRST” mode. When current video input signal is not present, then the monitor searches for a video signal from the other video input port. If the video signal is present in the other port, then the monitor switches the video source input port to the new found video source automatically. The monitor will not look for other video signals while the current video source is present. LAST: The video input has to be switched to the “LAST” mode. When the monitor is displaying a signal from the current source and a new secondary source is supplied to the monitor, then the monitor will automatically switch to the new video source. When current video input signal is not present, then the monitor searches for a video signal from the other video input port. If the video signal is present in the other port, then the monitor switches the video source input port to the new found video source automatically. NONE: The Monitor will not search the other video input port unless the monitor is turned on. OFF TIMER Monitor will automatically power-down when the end user has selected a pre-determined amount of time. Before powering off, a message will appear on the screen asking the user if they want to delay the turn off time by 60 minutes. Press any OSM button to delay the turn off time. 01_English 19/12/05, 12:459English-10 IPM The Intelligent Power Manager allows the monitor to enter into a power saving mode after a period of inactivity. The IPM has three settings. OFF: Monitor does not go into power save mode when the input signal is lost. STANDARD: Monitor enters power save mode automatically when the input signal is lost. OPTION: Monitor enters power save mode automatically when the amount of surrounding light goes below the level that is determined by the user. The level can be adjusted in Tag 7 of the Advanced OSM Control menu. When in power save mode, the LED on the front of the monitor blinks amber. While in power save mode, push any of the front buttons, except for POWER and SELECT to return to normal. When the amount of surrounding light returns to normal levels, the monitor will automatically return to normal mode. COLORCOMP This function electronically compensates for the slight variations in the white uniformity level, as well as for deviations in color that may occur throughout the display area of the screen. These variations are characteristic of LCD panel technology. This function improves the colour and evens out the luminance uniformity of the display. NOTE: Using the COLORCOMP feature reduces the overall peak luminance of the display. If greater luminance is desired over the uniform performance of the display, then COLORCOMP should be turned off. MENU Tools LANGUAGE OSM control menus are available in eight languages.

FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, PLEASE NOTE

THE FOLLOWING WHEN SETTING UP AND

USING THE LCD COLOUR MONITOR:

• DO NOT OPEN THE MONITOR. There are no user serviceable parts inside and opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous shock hazards or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

• Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor near water.

• Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage points, which can be harmful or fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.

• Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to the cord may cause shock or fire.

• Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable cart, stand or table, as the monitor may fall, causing serious damage to the monitor.

• Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor outdoors.

• The inside of the fluorescent tube located within the LCD monitor contains mercury. Please follow the bylaws or rules of your municipality to dispose of the tube properly.

• Do not bend power cord.

• Do not use monitor in high temperatured, humid, dusty, or oily areas.

• Do not cover vent on monitor.

• If monitor or glass is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal and handle with care. Immediately unplug your monitor from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.

• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the monitor.

• If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.

• If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.

• If the monitor does not operate normally by following operating instructions.

• Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that heat can properly dissipate. Do not block ventilated openings or place the monitor near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not put anything on top of monitor.

• The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the system from the power supply. The monitor should be installed close to a power outlet which is easily accessible.

• Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for transporting. Image Persistence: Image persistence is when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long period of time should be avoided. To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image was displayed. For example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to erase the image. NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS recommends using a moving screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use. CAUTION 01_English 19/12/05, 12:4512English English-13 CORRECT PLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE MONITOR CAN REDUCE EYE, SHOULDER AND NECK FATIGUE. CHECK THE FOLLOWING WHEN YOU POSITION THE MONITOR:

• For optimum performance, allow 20 minutes for warm-up.

• Adjust the monitor height so that the top of the screen is at or slightly below eye level. Your eyes should look slightly downward when viewing the middle of the screen.

• Position your monitor no closer than 40 cm and no further away than 70 cm from your eyes. The optimal distance is 50 cm.

• Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an object at least 20 feet away. Blink often.

• Position the monitor at a 90° angle to windows and other light sources to minimize glare and reflections. Adjust the monitor tilt so that ceiling lights do not reflect on your screen.

• If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your screen, use an anti-glare filter.

• Clean the LCD monitor surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using any cleaning solution or glass cleaner!

• Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls to enhance readability.

• Use a document holder placed close to the screen.

• Position whatever you are looking at most of the time (the screen or reference material) directly in front of you to minimize turning your head while you are typing.

• Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the monitor for long periods of time to avoid image persistence (after-image effects).

• Get regular eye checkups. Ergonomics To realize the maximum ergonomics benefits, we recommend the following:

• Adjust the Brightness until the background raster disappears.

• Do not position the Contrast control to its maximum setting.

• Use the preset Size and Position controls with standard signals.

• Use the preset Colour Setting.

• Use non-interlaced signals with a vertical refresh rate more than 60 Hz.

• Do not use primary colour blue on a dark background, as it is difficult to see and may produce eye fatigue to insufficient contrast. Cleaning the LCD Panel

• When the liquid crystal panel is stained with dust or dirt, please wipe with soft cloth gently.

• Please do not rub the LCD panel with hard material.

• Please do not apply pressure to the LCD surface.

• Please do not use OA cleaner it will cause deterioration or discolor on the LCD surface. Cleaning the Cabinet
