EIZO’s new EcoView Sense feature unites conve­nience with savings by ensuring that these monitors
automatically conserve power when they are not in
use. EcoView Sense is an integrated motion sensor
that prompts the monitor to switch to power save
mode when it does not detect the user for 40 sec­onds, and then resume normal operation when the
user returns. To accurately enter and stay in power
save mode while the user is away from the monitor,
EcoView Sense also differentiates between a still
object like an empty chair and the movement caused
by general office activity.

EcoView Sense automatically signals the screen to activate
and stay on, or switch to power save mode by detecting
whether the user is present or not.

Inside EIZO R&D

Original EIZO-developed

(patent pending) algorithms
allow EcoView Sense’s automatic
detection function to differenti­ate between animate and inani­mate objects as well as people
just passing by. The sensor’s
highly accurate position tracking has been achieved
by adopting a special lens that suppresses diffused
reflections of infrared rays and through factory-per­formed sensor adjustment on each monitor.

Optimized Brightness with Auto EcoView

A built-in Auto EcoView sensor measures ambient
light and optimizes the screen’s brightness to ideal
levels in both brightly and dimly lit rooms. This
results in improved visual ergonomics and reduced
power consumption by up to 40% compared to when
the sensor is turned off.

Zero Watts When Turned Off

When the power save mode and off timer are set,
these monitors consume less than 0.7 watts. When
turned off via the main power switch, they consume
no electricity at all.

Confirm Power Savings with EcoView Index

An EcoView Index displays the level of power savings
in correlation with the monitor’s brightness to encour­age environmental consciousness while working.

When EcoView
Index is fully
illuminated, the
monitor is operat­ing at optimum
energy efficiency.

EyeCare Manager

EIZO’s EyeCare Manager prompts workers to take
scheduled breaks to avoid eye fatigue caused by pro­longed monitor use. EyeCare also totals and displays
on-screen the monitor’s usage hours for each day and
month to promote worker appreciation of improved
work habits.

First TCO Displays 5.0 Certified Monitors

These are among the world’s first TCO Displays

5.0 certified monitors. This certification addresses
ergonomics, emissions, and ecology with new cri­teria for product energy efficiency consistent with
Energy Star 4.0 requirements, as well as enhanced
monitor and packaging recyclability. These monitors
also received the Green Electronics Council and US
EPA consumer electronics environmental assessment
program’s highest rating: EPEAT Gold.

Product Life Cycle Ecology

These monitors debut an innovative compact design
that reduces the number of internal components,
making them thinner and lighter than previous
FlexScan 20" and 24" widescreen models. This
allows the monitors to be shipped in smaller con­tainers which use between 80% to 100% recycled
material. These considerations made during product
development, in tandem with the monitors’ EcoView

Compared to a previ­ous FlexScan 24"
widescreen monitor, the
FlexScan EV2303W’s
slimmed-down cabinet
design cuts the use and
weight of sheet metal
components, shown
here, by up to 90%.

These monitor’s new compact cabinet design is thinner and
lighter than that of previous FlexScan widescreen models.

features, reduce environmental burden at each stage
of the products’ life cycle.

Improved Efficiency, Reduced Visual Fatigue

EIZO conducted a survey in 2008 to establish the
relationship between eye fatigue and monitor use.
Results showed that features like Auto EcoView,
ergonomic stands, and the EyeCare Manager
helped reduce eye fatigue and improved work effi­ciency by 12.5%.

16:9 Aspect Ratio

These are the first FlexScan models to feature 16:9
aspect ratios. The 16:9 wide format is the same
aspect ratio used by HDTV and it lets you enjoy mul­timedia content without horizontal letterboxing.

Fine Contrast for Optimum Viewing

EIZO’s Fine Contrast function has five modes: Text
mode for office applications, Movie mode for video,
Picture mode for graphics, sRGB mode for web brows­ing, and Custom mode for user-defined set tings.

Individual Adjustment of Gamma

Factory-performed gamma adjustment minimizes
discrepancies among monitor gamma characteristics
for better image consistency in multi-monitor setups.

Placement Flexibility

EIZO introduces two new ergonomic stands: the
highly-versatile FlexStand and the space-saving
TriStand. Both stands offer tilt, swivel and height
adjustment. The FlexStand also offers portrait rota­tion, laptop-like screen placement, and at 225 mm,
the industry’s greatest range of height adjustment.*
The FlexStand features an innovative, bearing­less design that reduces mechanical wear and the
amount of torque required to adjust height. A quick
release feature on the FlexStand allows for easy
monitor reconfiguration.

Based on expected savings compared to using the FlexScan S2401W
at a brightness of 100% in typical office lighting conditions. 2 Calculated
from figures obtained from the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade
and Industry, Agency for Natural Resources and Energy, and Ministry of
Environment where one kWh of electricit y produces 0.555 kg of CO2.

Calculated from figures obtained from the Japanese Ministry of
Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries where one tree (Japanese cedar)
absorbs approximately 14 kg of CO2 per year. 4 Calculated at a cost of
4 JPY/kg of CO2 for per cap and trade emission credit. 5 Calculated at
a cost of 24.13 JPY/kWh based on figures published by Tokyo Electric
Power Company effective April 2009. This is approximately 0.18 EUR/
kWh or 0.24 USD/kWh as of April 2, 2009. 6 Based on exchange rates as

Reduced Network Power Consumption

For businesses using multiple monitors, EIZO’s
EcoView NET power management software gives
administrators centralized control over the power set­tings of networked monitors to help reduce electricity
consumption and provide long-term energy savings
and a smaller carbon footprint.
