Introduction

Thank you for choosing Barco.

MVGD 1319 display

The MVGD 1319 is an 19-inch grayscale LCD display with a native
resolution of 1280 x 1024.

Its high-brightness, combined with image crispness and excellent
viewing angle, makes it an ideal solution for a multitude of medical
applications and environments.

Long-term stabilization

The display contains a Backlight Output Stabilization system (BLOS
which continuously stabilizes the luminance output of the LCD’s
backlight. This improves the overall optical efficiency and provides long­term image confidence.

),

Ambient Light Compensation (ALC)

When enabled, the ALC system automatically adapts 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.

Power saving

The display 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
display.

The power saving system works with the standard Windows power
saving and with the DPMS function on the Barco BarcoMed display
controller (if installed in the PC).

noise or distortion. Select the filter setting that gives the best result.

Readjustment of sample phase is necessary after selection of a
different filter.

Geometry: Active Input Region

When a video signal is connected, the display looks for a matching
format in its VESA table. The VESA table contains the starting position
(first line of the frames and first pixel of the lines) of the active video
and the length of the active video (number of lines per frame and
number of pixels per line).

When there is no match with one of the formats in the table, the
nearest format is chosen, possibly resulting in a not-perfectly aligned
image. The user can align the image using the Automatic Geometry
function.

However, in some cases the user is not satisfied with the image after
Automatic Geometry, or the video signal itself does not meet the
requirements for a successful Automatic Geometry. In that case the user
can manually define the active video region to display, creating offsets
to the settings chosen by the display.

In order to use these adjustments successfully, the scaling setting is
preferably be set to None.

The following offset adjustments are available:

38

Operation

Name Description

Left offset This function allows you to make an offset to the

start (left) position of the active video. As you
adjust this value, another pixel will be chosen as
starting pixel. The active line width is not changed
by this adjustment. As a visual result, the image
moves horizontally.

Right offset This function allows you to make an offset to the

end (right) position of the active video. As you
adjust this value, another pixel will be chosen as
last pixel per line. This adjustment alters the
active line width.
Remark that the active video is always centered
on the screen while this adjustment is made.

Top offset This function allows you to make an offset to the

start (top) line of the active video. As you adjust
this value, another line will be chosen as first line.

Bottom offset This function allows you to make an offset to the

end (bottom) line of the active video. As you
adjust this value, another line will be chosen as
last line.

Note: If you execute an Automatic Geometry function after these
adjustments, all manual offsets will be erased.

Glossary

Calibration

Each display is calibrated in the factory before it is sent to the customer.
After this calibration, black and white luminance are set to the ideal
level.

A stabilization routine, constantly active when the display is on, keeps
these levels constant using the built-in sensor.

54

Technical Information

Display Function

A Display Function describes how a display device converts the video
signals at the inputs into light.

In the context of a medical viewing station, a display device is the
combination of display controller (graphics board) and display.

The display function is a graph that shows how the light from the
display panel evolves from minimum to maximum luminance while the
data levels at the input of the display controller go from 0 to maximum.

DICOM

DICOM stands for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine. It is
a standard developed by the American College of Radiology (ACR) and
the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA).

The standard specifies how digital image data can be moved from
system to system.

In addition, Supplement 28 Part 14 specifies a function that relates pixel
values to displayed Luminance levels and is called Grayscale Standard
Display Function.

Presets and Internal memory system

The memory of the display contains minimum 70 fixed and 59
programmable Presets.

When you connect a video signal, the display checks in the memory for
a matching Preset.

If it finds one, it selects the corresponding settings and parameters from
the memory. If it does not find a matching Preset, the display uses
default settings to display the image.

When you make adjustments and save the changes, the current Preset
is saved as programmable Preset. If this happens while all
programmable Presets are occupied, the oldest programmable Preset is
overwritten automatically.
