Notice for this monitor

Notice for this monitor
Aside from general purposes like creating documents, viewing multimedia content, this product is also suited to applications such as creations of images and graphics, and digital photo processing, where accurate color reproduction is a priority.
This product has been adjusted specically for use in the region to which it was originally shipped. If the product is used outside the region, it may not operate as specied in the specications.
This product may not be covered by warranty for uses other than those described in this manual.
The specications noted in this manual are only applicable when the following are used:
· Power cords provided with the product
· Signal cables specied by us
Only use optional products manufactured or specied by us with this product.
If you place this product on a lacquer-coated desk, the color may adhere to the bottom of the stand due to the composition of the rubber. Check the desk surface before use.
It takes about 3 minutes (under our measurement conditions) for the monitor display to stabilize. Please wait 3 minutes or more after the monitor power has been turned on, and then adjust the monitor. It is necessary to wait at least 30 minutes after turning on the power, in order to obtain correct measurement results.
Monitors should be set to a lower brightness to reduce changes in luminosity caused by long-term use and maintain a stable display.
When the screen image is changed after displaying the same image for extended periods of time, an afterimage may appear. Use the screen saver or power save function to avoid displaying the same image for extended periods of time.
If the monitor displays continuously over a long period of time, dark smudges or burn-in may appear. To maximize the life of the monitor, we recommend the monitor be turned off periodically.
Periodic cleaning is recommended to keep the monitor looking new and to prolong its operation lifetime (refer to “Cleaning” (page 4)).

Notice for this monitor
The LCD panel is manufactured using high-precision technology. Although, missing pixels or lit pixels may appear on the LCD panel, this is not a malfunction. Percentage of effective dots: 99.9994% or higher.
The backlight of the LCD panel has a xed lifetime. When the screen becomes dark or begins to icker, please contact your local EIZO representative.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in display malfunctions, such as interference patterns, etc. If pressure is continually applied to the panel, it may deteriorate or damage your panel. (If the pressure marks remain on the panel, leave the monitor with a black or white screen. The symptom may disappear.)
Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, as this may result in damage to the panel. Do not attempt to brush with tissues as this may scratch the panel.
When the monitor is cold and brought into a room or the room temperature goes up quickly, dew condensation may occur on the interior and exterior surfaces of the monitor. In that case, do not turn the monitor on. Instead wait until the dew condensation disappears, otherwise it may cause some damage to the monitor.

Cleaning

Attention
Chemicals such as alcohol and antiseptic solution may cause gloss variation, tarnishing, and fading of the cabinet or panel, and also quality deterioration of the image.
Never use any thinner, benzene, wax, and abrasive cleaner, which may damage the cabinet or panel.
The stains on the cabinet and panel surface can be removed by using the provided ScreenCleaner.

To use the monitor comfortably

An excessively dark or bright screen may affect your eyes. Adjust the brightness of the monitor according to the environmental conditions.
Staring at the monitor for a long time tires your eyes. Take a 10-minute rest every hour.

This product is equipped with a built-in calibration sensor, and supports SelfCalibration in which the monitor executes calibration independently.
See “SelfCalibration” (page 29)
The provided Color Management Software “ColorNavigator 6” enables you to calibrate monitor characteristics and generate color proles
See “1-3. EIZO LCD Utility Disk” (page 11)
Equipped with 4K zoom function
If a 4K2K signal (signals with a resolution of 4096 × 2160 or 3840 × 2160) is displayed on the screen, the specied area can be expanded by 2x in the display. This is convenient when checking the ne detail of photos. This is convenient when checking the ne detail of images.
See “2-4. Enlarging Images” (page 20)
Equipped with a USB Hub function that supports USB 3.0
Achieves high-speed data transfers of up to 5 Gbps, which enables transfers of large amounts of data to and from USB-connected devices in a short amount time. Also, the “CHARGE” USB downstream port supports quick charging, so you can recharge your smartphone or tablet in a short period of time.
See “6-4. Making Use of USB (Universal Serial Bus)” (page 55) and “USB CHARGE Port” (page 39)
Monitor hood is included
Includes a monitor hood that can effectively shield the monitor from the reection of external lighting, such as the reected glare of a uorescent light.
Displays HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Protection) *5 protected contents.
*5 Supports HDCP Version 1.2
Attention
Be careful of the following points when using the built-in calibration sensor.
Introduction
Do not touch the built-in calibration sensor.
It may reduce the measurement accuracy of the built-in calibration sensor, or result in injury or equipment damage.
Attention
A high temperature or high humidity environment may affect the measurement accuracy of the built-in calibration sensor. We suggest storing and using the monitor under the following conditions.
- Temperature 30 ºC or less
- Humidity 70% or less
Avoid storing or using the sensor where it may be exposed to direct sunlight.
Since the measurement result for the built-in sensor may be affected, ensure that the level of ambient light that enters the receiver part of the built-in sensor does not change signicantly during measuring.
- The use of the monitor hood is recommended.
- While measuring, do not bring your face or any objects close to the monitor, do not look into the sensor.
- Set the monitor in the environment so that external light does not enter the sensor directly.

●Color
The setting details differ depending on the color mode selected.
When the color mode is Standard Mode (Custom / Adobe®RGB / sRGB / EBU / REC709 / SMPTE-C / DCI / REC2020)
Each color mode setting status can be adjusted according to personal preference.
Attention
It takes about 3 minutes (under our measurement conditions) for the monitor display to stabilize. Please wait 3 minutes or more after the monitor power has been turned on, and then adjust the monitor.
The same image may be seen in different colors on multiple monitors due to their monitor-specic characteristics. Make ne color adjustment visually when matching colors on multiple monitors.
Note
Use the values shown in “cd/m2”, “K” and “%” as a guide only.

The color temperature can be adjusted. The color temperature is normally used to express the color of “White” and/or “Black” by a numerical value. The value is expressed in degrees “K” (Kelvin). The screen becomes reddish at a low color temperature, and bluish at a high color temperature, like the ame temperature. The gain preset values are set for each color temperature setting value.
Specify color temperature in units of 100 K, or select a color temperature that complies with each standard.
Set the color reproduction area (color gamut). “Color gamut” is the range of colors that devices such as monitors, digital cameras and printers can express. Various standards are dened.
Adjust the gamma. The brightness of the monitor varies depending on the input signal, however, the variation rate is not simply proportional to the input signal. The control performed to keep the balance between the input signal and the brightness of the monitor is called “Gamma correction”.
You can set the gamma, or select the gamma curve dened by
each standard.
When you select “Native”, the original color
of the monitor (Gain: 100% for each RGB) is displayed.
“Gain” allows you to perform more advanced adjustment. When gain is changed, the color temperature is changed to “User”.
When you select “Native”, the original color gamut of the monitor is displayed.
The method of displaying colors outside the monitor's color gamut can be set within the dened color gamut. For more information,
