1. OVERVIEW
1.1 Introduction
The MFGD 3420, BARCOs 21 3 megapixel greyscale LCD display,
guarantees perfect image quality in medical imaging applications.
The display combines a TFT (thin film transistor) liquid crystal display
panel structure and a built-in backlight with inverter for a better picture
quality. It is designed to meet the users' needs for performance,
consistency, and outstanding image quality through a streamlined
development process.
The display can be used in portrait or landscape version, simply by
turning the panel. The tilt & swivel foot allows ideal positioning of the
panel, in height and viewing angle.
The image brightness can be adjusted by means of a control wheel on
the display. Other image parameters can be adjusted by means of
external software, like MediCal

display system, making it possible to perform QA checks from one
central server at any time, thereby reducing lifecycle cost.
Multi-scan capabilities
The optimum and recommended resolution is 2048 x 1536 or 1536 x
2048 at 60 Hz.
The MFGD 3420 display will also display most of the computer boot
modes.

2. INSTALLATION
2.1 Precautions
Keep your original packaging. It is designed for this display and is
the ideal protection during transport.
Avoid reflections in the flat panel to reduce eye strain.
Place the display on a strong and stable table or desk.
Keep the display away from heat sources and provide enough
ventilation in case it is built in a rack or console.
Make sure the computer is switched off before connecting the
signals.
Do not block or cover the openings in the external power supply
block. Also, do not turn the power supply upside down or at its
side. Doing so would cause overheating of the power supply.
2.2. Before installing the display
Important:
In the factory, the height-positioning system in the display foot is
blocked with a strap to prevent damage during transportation.
Before installing the display, you must remove this strap.
To remove the strap:
1 Position the display with its rear side facing you.
2 If the foot cover is mounted on the foot, lift up the 2 clips of the foot
cover to release the cover from the foot.
3 Pull the lower side of the cover towards you and simultaneously
slide the cover downward.
4 Pull the red strap out of the fixation holes in the foot.
You can better leave the cover off the foot while connecting the signal
cables to the display.

1 Stand at the front side of the panel and take the panel at both
sides.
2 Very important: Tilt the panel before changing
the orientation.
Should you change the panel orientation without
