Notice for this monitor

This product is suited to general purposes like creating documents, viewing multimedia content.

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.

It takes about 30 minutes for the performance of electrical parts to stabilize. Please wait 30 minutes or more after the
monitor power has been turned on, and then adjust the monitor.

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)).

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.

Note

• The optional ScreenCleaner is recommended for cleaning the cabinet and panel surface.

If necessary, the stains on the cabinet and panel surface can be removed by moistening part of a soft cloth with
water.

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.

Chapter 1 Introduction

Thank you very much for choosing an EIZO color LCD monitor.

1-1. Features

• 23.0″ wide format LCD (EV2316W / EV2336W)

• 24.1″ wide format LCD (EV2416W / EV2436W)

• Supports a resolution of 1920 × 1080 (EV2316W / EV2336W)

• Supports a resolution of 1920 × 1200 (EV2416W / EV2436W)

• IPS panel with 89˚ horizontal and vertical viewing angles (EV2336W / EV2436W only)

• Applicable to DisplayPort (applicable to 8 bit)

The DisplayPort input receives both an image signal and an audio signal via a single DisplayPort cable.

*1 When transmitting an audio signal using the DisplayPort cable, the graphics board must be compatible with audio

output (see “6-7. Specications” (page 54)).

• The FineContrast function allows the user to select the display mode optimum to the displayed image.

- The Paper mode reproduces a printed paper effect on the monitor. In Paper mode, the amount of blue light

emitted from the screen is reduced by changing the color tone and controlling the brightness.

See “To select the display mode (FineContrast Mode)” (page 19).

• The software “ScreenManager Pro for LCD (DDC/CI)” to adjust the screen using the mouse and keyboard is

included

See “1-3. EIZO LCD Utility Disk” (page 11).

- EyeCare Filter

Texture of the paper is reproduced by displaying a translucent image in the foreground of the desktop.
By using this function with the Paper mode, the screen looks more like paper.

See “To select the display mode (FineContrast Mode)” (page 19).

• Supports the power management software “EIZO EcoView NET”

For more information, refer to our web site (www.eizoglobal.com).

• Power saving function

Suppressing the power consumption*2 reduces the carbon dioxide emissions. This product is equipped with power saving
function.

- 0 W power consumption when the main power is off

Equipped with main power switch.
When the monitor is not required, the power supply can be shut off using the main power switch.

- Auto EcoView

The ambient light sensor on the front side of the monitor detects the environmental brightness to adjust the screen
brightness automatically and comfortably. Excessively high brightness may increase power consumption and cause
unwanted environmental effects. It may also lead to fatigue of your eyes. Use the Auto EcoView to reduce the
brightness.

See “Auto EcoView” (page 37).

- EcoView Optimizer 2

The monitor automatically adjusts the screen brightness according to the white level of the input signal. This
function can reduce the power consumption while maintaining the brightness specied by the input signal.

See “EcoView Optimizer 2” (page 38).

- EcoView Sense

The sensor on the front side of the monitor detects the movement of a person. When a person moves away from the
monitor, the monitor shifts to the power saving mode automatically and does not display the images on the screen.
Therefore, the function reduces the power consumption. The sensitivity and time until the power saving mode is
activated can be set according to the monitor usage environment and movement of the user.

See “4-4. Setting the power saving mode when a person leaves the monitor” (page 38).

• Up View (EV2316W / EV2416W only)

The viewing angle is adjusted so that the screen looks like a front view when the screen is looked up.

See “3-3. Compensating viewing angle deciency (EV2316W / EV2416W only)” (page 32).

• Supports portrait and landscape formats (FlexStand2 only)

• Displays HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Protection) protected contents.

Note

• This monitor supports the portrait display. This function allows you to change the orientation of the Setting menu when
