Congratulations on your purchase of the most innovative and versatile Industrial
LCD monitor available today—the C
YRAQ
™
21. The CyberResearch CYRAQ 21 uses
a groundbreaking raised bezel design allowing the installation of a rugged 21.3″ flat
panel display in a standard EIA 19″ rack! The engineers at CyberResearch have also
designed mounting plates that allow the CYRAQ 21 to be rack or panel-mounted in either
landscape or portrait orientation. The accompanying screen rotation software rotates the
desktop 90°, 180°, or 270° to provide a suitable viewing angle for any display orientation.
YRAQ 21 complies with the power management regulations of VESA DPMS,
The C
making it extremely energy efficient—75W while active and 3W in power-saving mode.
The C
YRAQ 21 LCD monitor emits very low radiation levels and virtually no
electromagnetic field. Fully compatible with the PC and Macintosh, the CYRAQ 21
provides dual inputs (VGA and DVI) is “Plug & Play” compatible and also complies with
DDC1/DDC2B. The On Screen Display menu provides users with an intuitive interface
making it simple to quickly adjust the display.
The CYRAQ 21 is the first ever 21.3″ 1600 x 1200 flat-panel display capable of panel,
swivel-arm or rack mounting. It sets a new standard for clear, bright, flicker-free images
and its NEMA 4X front bezel makes it ideal for use in industrial environments.

1.1 Why the CYRAQ 21?
The CYRAQ concept was conceived in the Engineering Department at CyberResearch as
we began to examine how the recent advances in LCD technology and image quality
could potentially affect our market and customer base. The LCD monitor today provides
viewing angles comparable to CRTs with no discernable loss of picture quality; a LCD
resultantly provides crisp, clean, deep images WITHOUT screen glare. Coupled with a
flat screen, slim design, extremely low radiation and almost no electromagnetic
emissions, an LCD monitor can provide some very distinct advantages to users in
manufacturing, commercial and scientific applications.
Put simply, the innovation of the C
Never before have the industrial and scientific markets been able to utilize large LCD
monitors versatile enough to be rack, panel or VESA arm mounted yet robust and capable
enough to perform in harsh environments. The C
provides an unmatched degree of protection to the unit’s components, it dually helps
achieve a NEMA 4X rating capable of sustaining normal operation (when installed
correctly) while enduring screen washdown and other procedures commonly practiced in
a harsh environment.
The CyberResearch, Inc. CYRAQ series displays have been engineered to couple with a
revolutionary new mounting plate system that allows a user to install the CYRAQ display
into a rack, or a panel without retrofitting disparate hardware, drilling holes, or welding
mounting studs. The mounting plate systems make it a snap to install a CYRAQ into a
standard 19″ rack, or panel-mount in any orientation.
Currently, the CYRAQ family is comprised of many, many models including displays
featuring rear controls only, VESA mounting, choice of color and touchscreen (serial or
USB available). CyberResearch has also expanded the CYRAQ family to include the
YRAQ 12 (12″), CYRAQ 15 (15″), CYRAQ 17 (17″), (in addition to 19″, 21″ &
C
24″) models—please call us or visit our website for more information.
YRAQ series is derived from its size and applications.
Standard LCDs used in bright ambient light may appear “washed out” due to excessive
reflection from these lighting conditions. CyberResearch has developed a manufacturing
technique that reduces ambient light reflection inside the display case, making our LCDs
appear brighter—even in direct sunlight.
CyberResearch now offers AR Bonding™ Technology on our entire line of signature
CYRAQ LCDs, which dually seals the display while significantly reducing the
transmission of reflected light to it. We’ve accomplished this by utilizing a high-quality
bond that optically couples the front cover glass to the face of the display. This technique
practically eliminates internal light reflection, which directly improves viewing quality.
Additionally, sealing the display with AR Bonding™ Technology greatly enhances its
structural integrity, providing superior shock protection and dually eliminating the
possibility of trapped moisture between the LCD and cover glass. This not only reduces
troublesome fogging in humid and moist conditions, it keeps condensation and wetness
away from your LCD.
Reducing the effect of ambient light reflection on your display can dramatically improve
its performance! When AR Bonding™ Technology is applied to a 250 nit display, it can
increase the effective contrast and provide the enhanced daylight viewing equivalent to
that of a 500 or 600 nit display without AR Bonding™ Technology. Minimizing refracted
ambient sunlight to the LCD yields a discernable increase in display performance.

Touchscreens are the ultimate human/machine interface. In a touchscreen system,
touching what you see onscreen makes the computer respond. The touchscreen system is
logical, intuitive and simple. Using touchscreens, workers can precisely control
complicated processes without being tethered to a keyboard and mouse. People who have
never used a computer before can immediately interact successfully with a touchscreenbased computer system allowing airline customers to access flight information, CNC
machinists to quickly change programs, and wait staff can instantly send your order to the
kitchen—all with the touch of their finger.

4.2 Calibration
4.2.1 Calibration Options:
Three point calibration: Quick calibration of a known good touchscreen overlay. May
be used to evaluate, test or verify actual touchscreen linearity.
No correction.
Four Point Calibration (Default): Will compensate for skew, and some edge linearity
anomalies.
Best for general calibration.
Seven Point Calibration: More accurate than 3 point calibration. Helps calibrate screen
to the edges.
No correction.
Twenty Point Calibration: Provides the highest level of touchscreen linearization and
skew correction. Should be used to get the best possible calibration
May be used to extend the life of a failing touchscreen.
Calibration Offset: Because of the varied linearity that exists between touchscreen
types, you may want to calibrate the edges of the touchscreen more precisely. Experiment
with this setting to find the best result.
Default is 20%.
Select the large target to calibrate.
4.2.2 Configure Calibration Settings
Generally speaking, the default setting of 4 Point Calibration is quite accurate for most
applications. It is recommended the user try this default setting before configuring calibration with a different setting. If adjustments need to be made, use the procedure on

5.1.1 Touchscreen
Clean the touchscreen with household glass cleaner or just plain water, and soft cloth.
¾ We do not recommend using paper products to clean the touchscreen.
¾ Always dampen the towel first, and then clean the touchscreen to reduce
abrasion from the cleaning applicator.
¾ Glass cleaner sprayed directly onto the CYRAQ’s screen could possibly
be over sprayed leak into the back of a unit if not mounted correctly, and
cause damage.
5.1.2 LCD
Clean the LCD screen with household glass cleaner or just plain water, and soft cloth
¾ Do not spray cleaner or water directly on any part of the unit—front or
back.
¾ We do not recommend using paper products to clean your display screen
¾ Always dampen a soft cloth first, and then clean the LCD screen to
reduce abrasion from the cleaning applicator.
¾ Do not use or store flammable substances near the monitor.
Periodically, you may find it necessary to clean fan filters built into the back of the
CYRAQ’s enclosure. Cleaning frequency is largely based on environmental and other
conditions immediately surrounding the unit. Since most applications require the C
YRAQ
to be rack or panel-mounted, the engineers at CyberResearch, Inc. designed a filter
system users can maintain without dismounting the display, disassembling the unit, or
removing the fan filters from the enclosure.
!
Disconnect power to the unit before beginning the subsequent steps
To clean the fan filters:
1. Power off the unit using the On/Off switch.
2. Unplug the unit’s AC power.
3. Gain access to the rear of the unit.
4. Carefully run a vacuum hose (using a crevice attachment is ideal) over the
protective fan filter screens (
