Chapter 1 Introduction

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

1-1. Features

•23.8″ wide format LCD (EV2450)

•24.1″ wide format LCD (EV2455)

•Supports a resolution of 1920 × 1080 (EV2450)

•Supports a resolution of 1920 × 1200 (EV2455)

•IPS panel with 89˚ horizontal and vertical viewing angles

•Supports four digital signal input interfaces (DisplayPort (HDCP) × 1, HDMI TypeA (HDCP) × 1, DVI-D (HDCP) × 1, and D-Sub mini 15-pin × 1)

-- DisplayPort (8-bit support) *1

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

*1 When transmitting an audio signal using the DisplayPort cable, the graphics board must support audio output. See “6-6. Specifications” (page 51).

-- HDMI

Supports PC signals via HDMI input.

The HDMI input receives both image signals and audio signals via a single HDMI cable.

•The Color Mode 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 “2-3. Switching Display Modes (Color Modes)” (page 16).

•Power saving functions

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

-- 0 W power consumption when the main power is off

Equipped with a main power switch.

When not using the monitor, you can turn off the main power supply so that the power is cut completely.

-- Auto EcoView

The ambient light sensor on the front of the monitor detects the ambient brightness to automatically adjust the screen brightness to a comfortable level. Excessively high brightness may increase power consumption and cause unwanted environmental effects. It may also lead to eye fatigue. The range of automatic adjustment can be configured to personal preference.

See “Auto EcoView” (page 18).

-- EcoView Optimizer 2

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

See “EcoView Optimizer 2” (page 18).

- 7 -

Chapter 1 Introduction

-- EcoView Sense

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

See “EcoView Sense” (page 19). *2 Reference values:

EV2450

Maximum power consumption: 47 W (when a USB device is connected, speaker working), standard power consumption: 12 W (brightness 120 cd/m2, when no USB device is connected, speaker not working, at default settings)

EV2455

Maximum power consumption: 49 W (when a USB device is connected, speaker working), standard power consumption: 13 W (brightness 120 cd/m2, when no USB device is connected, speaker not working, at default settings)

•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. See “6-5. Making Use of USB (Universal Serial Bus)” (page 50).

•High degree of flexibility for installation

-- Stand with wide range of movement. The monitor can be adjusted to a position that provides a comfortable and less tiring work environment.

Tilt: 35˚ up/5˚ down, swivel: 344˚, vertical rotation: 90˚ left/90˚ right, adjustable height: 114.7 mm (tilt: 35˚) / 140 mm (EV2450), 131 mm (EV2455) (tilt: 0˚)

-- A thin bezel provides a virtually seamless viewing experience in multiple monitor environments. Mounting the monitor on an arm allows the screen to be

installed rotated by 180˚ (flipped vertically).

Installation example

• The orientation of the Setting menu can be changed when using the monitor screen in the portrait display position (see “Menu Rotation” (page 31)).

•Displays HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Protection) *3 protected contents.

*3 Supports HDCP Version 1.x

•Supports the “ScreenManager Pro” software for adjusting the screen using the mouse and keyboard

This software can be downloaded from our web site (http://www.eizoglobal.com).

•Supports the “EIZO Monitor Configurator” software for creating monitor configuration files

When installing multiple units of this monitor, this software allows users to apply a single configuration file to all monitors at the same time. This increases the efficiency of monitor installation work by eliminating the need for configuring each monitor individually.

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

Chapter 2 Basic Adjustment/Setting

2-3. Switching Display Modes (Color Modes)

This product is preinstalled with color modes for various display purposes.

Switch the mode according to the purpose and content for display. This allows the monitor to display images in a manner appropriate to the display content.

●●

Display Modes

Color Mode

Purpose

User1

Select either of these modes to set a user-defined display mode.

User2

sRGB

This mode is suitable for matching color reproduction with peripheral devices that support sRGB, such as when printing photos taken using a

digital camera.

Paper

This mode uses color tones and contrast similar to that of paper to produce a printed paper effect. It is suitable for displaying images from

media such as books and documents.

Movie

This mode displays moving images brightly and with a clear-cut three-dimensional appearance. It is suitable for playing back video content.

DICOM

Selected for the display in the DICOM mode.

Note

•“ScreenManager Pro” allows you to select the color mode automatically according to the application in use. (“ScreenManager Pro” is software for adjusting the screen using the mouse and keyboard. This software can be downloaded from our web site (http://www.eizoglobal.com).)

Chapter 2 Basic Adjustment/Setting

2-4. Conserving Energy

This monitor is equipped with EcoView functions to enable users to conserve energy.

Use this function to curtail unnecessary power consumption and save on electricity expenses. Saving power also reduces carbon dioxide emissions.

Level of power saving

Note

•The power saving level (Power Reduction, CO2 Reduction, and Eco Performance Level) can be checked on the “EcoView Settings” menu. The more indicators that light up representing the Eco Performance Level, the higher the power saving level attained.

-- Power Reduction: the reduction in the backlight’s power consumption as a result of the adjusted brightness value.

-- CO2 Reduction: converted from the “Power Reduction” value, this is an estimate of the quantity of CO2 emissions reduced when using the monitor for 1 hour.

* The numeric value is a result of calculation based on a default setting (0.000555 t -CO2/kWh) determined by a Japanese ministerial ordinance (2006, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, Ministry of Environment, civil code article 3) and may differ depending on country and year.

●●Color Adjustment

The color mode setting status can be adjusted according to personal preference.

Attention

•It takes about 30 minutes for the performance of electrical parts to stabilize. Please wait 30 minutes or more after power to the monitor has been turned on before adjusting the monitor.

•The same image may be observed in different colors on multiple monitors due to monitor-specific characteristics. Make fine color adjustments visually when matching colors across multiple monitors.

Note

•Using “ScreenManager Pro” allows you to perform color adjustment with the mouse and keyboard on your PC. The adjusted state can also be saved and loaded as color data. “ScreenManager Pro” can be downloaded from our web site (http://www.eizoglobal.com).
