1.OVERVIEW

1.1. Introduction

The MFGD 2320, BARCO’s 20” 2 megapixel grayscale 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 out standing image quality through a streamlined
development process.

If the Portrait Accelerator option is inst alled, 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 panel can be adjusted by means of a control wheel on the display.

I-Guard

I-GUARD® is Barco’s patent-pending, built-in calibration device,
continuously maintaining image quality . With I-GUARD®, QA checks no
longer need to disturb normal radiology activities, as they can be
performed while applications are running.

I-GUARD
viewing stations or adjust the panel’s curve to DICOM standards
without administrator intervention.

®

allows radiologists or QA administrators to calibrate their

Autoset feature

The display has an Autoset feature that helps the user to adjust
standard scans: With one single function, you can automatically adjust
the display completely .

Autoscan

When you connect a video signal, the display checks in the internal
memory if the signal has been adjusted before. If so, it selects the
settings and parameters that match the connected signal.

When you connect a video signal that hasn’t been connected before,
and adjust the display to the signal, the adjustments and signal timing
parameters are stored in a programmable scan mode.

User manual MFGD 2320 4

Best resolution

The optimum and recommended resolution is 1600 x 1200 or 1200 x
1600 (if the Portrait Accelerator option is installed).

The recommended refresh rate is 60 Hz.
Would you have trouble selecting a proper display setting in

Windows, please refer to the Troubleshooting section further.

BARCO’s BarcoMed 2MP2FH imaging board is the best choice to
drive the MFGD 2320 display.

Power saving (DPMS)

The MFGD 2320 is equipped with a power saving system.
When left idle for a certain time, the computer connected to the
display, will power down the display. The power saving system can be
switched on or off using the on-screen menus.
This system requires a computer imaging board that supports power
saving management.

Ambient Light Compensation (ALC)

When enabled, the ALC system automatically adapt s the display light
output, depending on the ambient light in the room. The ambient light
is measured by the ALC optical sensor located at the front of the
display .

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 all equipment is switched off before connecting the
signals.

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.

Strap

T o remove the strap:

1 Position the display with its rear side facing you.
2 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 .

User manual MFGD 2320 8

2.3. Portrait or landscape position

You can change the orientation of the panel at any time, but it is more
convenient to select landscape or portrait orientation before connecting
the cables.

To change the panel orientation:
1 Stand at the front side of the panel and t ake the panel at both sides.
2 Very important: Tilt the p anel before changing the orient ation.

Should you change the panel orientation without tilting it first, you
might irreversibly damage the tilt & swivel mechanism.

3 To change from portrait to landscape, turn the panel

counterclockwise while tilting it slightly.
To change from landscape to portrait, turn clockwise.

2.4. Connecting the signals

To get access to the connectors, open the cover of the connector
compartment by pulling down the 2 clips of the cover.

The signal cables can be routed inside the display foot. Therefore,
remove the foot cover before connecting the signals (see "Before
installing the display").

Important:

Do not connect video and sync signals to the BNC and D15 connec­tors at the same time.

T o connect DVI signals:

1 Connect one end of the DVI cable to the DVI input (5) of the display.
2 Connect the other end of the DVI cable to the video output of your

DVI signal source.

3 Route the cable so that it enters the connector comp artment at the

place where the cover is bulged.

User manual MFGD 2320 9

T o connect analog video & sync signals on BNC:

Connect the video & sync output of the signal source to the video and
sync inputs (9), (8) and (7) of the display.

The inputs accept the following signals:

• Video with separate horizontal and vertical sync.

- The connection consists of 3 cables.

- Connect the video signal to the connector Video (9).

- Connect the horizontal sync signal to the connector HS/CS (8).

- Connect the vertical sync signal to the connector VS (7).

- Make sure the signal connected to the HS/CS connector

does not contain Composite sync.

• Video with external composite sync.

- The connection consists of 2 cables.

- Connect the video signal to the connector Video (9).

- Connect the composite sync signal to the connector HS/CS (8).

- Make sure no signal is connected to the VS connector.

• Video with internal composite sync (sync on video).

- The connection consists of 1 cable.

- Connect the video (with sync) signal to the connector Video (9).

Notes:

• The video inputs cannot be connected in loop-through (daisy-chain).

• The required video amplitude: 700 mV ± 3 dB.

• The required sync. amplitude:

- VS input: 700 mV to 4 V

- HS/CS input: 500 mV to 4V

- Video input (sync on video): 150 mV to 600 mV

T o connect analog video & sync signals on D15:

1 Connect one end of the VGA cable to the D15 input (6) of the

display .

2 Connect the other end of the VGA cable to the video output of your

computer.

3 Route the cable so that it enters the connector comp artment at the

place where the cover is bulged.

T o connect the power:

1 Connect the output of the 12V DC power supply to the DC input (12)

of the display .

2 Connect one end of the proper power cable to the AC input of the

12V DC power supply.
