LCD Panel
In order to suppress the luminosity change by long-term use and to
maintain the stable luminosity, use of a monitor in lower
brightness is recommended.
The screen may have defective pixels. These pixels may appear as
slightly light or dark area on the screen. This is due to the
characteristics of the panel itself, and not the product.
The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed life span. When the
screen becomes dark or begins to flicker, please contact your
dealer.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this
may result in damage to the screen. There will be prints left on the
screen if the pressed image is dark or black. If pressure is
repeatedly applied to the screen, it may deteriorate or damage
your LCD panel. Leave the screen white to decrease the prints.
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 timer to avoid displaying the same image for
extended periods of time.
When the monitor is cold and brought into a room or the room
temperature goes up quickly, dew condensation may occur inside
and outside the monitor. In that case, do not turn the monitor on
and wait until dew condensation disappears, otherwise it may
cause some damages to it.
Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, such
as a pencil or pen as this may result in damage to the panel. Do
not attempt to brush with tissues as this may scratch the LCD

5. Afterimages appear. Do you use the screen saver or timer when
displaying the same image for extended
periods of time?
Afterimages are particular to LCD monitors.
Avoid displaying the same image for extended
periods of time.
6. The screen has defective
pixels (e.g. slightly light or
dark).
7. Fingerprints remain on the
screen.
8. The screen is flicking or the
position is not proper.
9. The Enter button does not
operate.
This is due to the characteristics of the panel
itself, and not the LCD product.

9. GLOSSARY
Clock
With the analog input signal display, the analog signal is converted to a digital
signal by the LCD circuitry. To convert the signal correctly, the LCD monitor needs
to produce the same number clock pulse as the dot clock of the graphics system.
When the clock pulse is not correctly set, some vertical bars of distortion are
displayed on the screen.
Color Temperature (Temperature)
Color Temperature is a method to measure the white color tone, generally
indicated in degrees Kelvin. At high temperatures the white tone appears
somewhat blue, while at lower temperatures it appears somewhat red. Computer
monitors generally give best performance at high temperature settings.
6,500 K: Warm-white tone, similar to white paper or daylight.
9,300 K: Slightly bluish white.
Gain Adjustment
Adjusts each color parameter for red, green and blue. The color of the LCD
monitor is displayed through the color filter of the LCD panel. Red, green and blue
are the three primary colors. The colors on the monitor are displayed by
combining these three colors. The color tone can change by adjusting the
illumination amount passed through each color
’fs filter.
Phase
The phase adjustment decides the sampling timing point for converting the analog
input signal to a digital signal. Adjusting the phase after the clock adjustment will
produce a clear screen.
Range Adjustment
The Range Adjustment controls the level of output signal range to display the
whole color gradation.
Resolution
The LCD panel consists of a fixed number of pixel elements which are illuminated
to form the screen image. The EIZO P1700 display panel consists of 1280
horizontal pixels and 1024 vertical pixels. At a resolution of 1280 x 1024, all
pixels are displayed as a full screen.

sRGB (Standard RGB)
“International Standard for Red, Green, and Blue color space”
A color space was defined with the aim of the color matching between applications
and hardware devices, such as monitors, scanners, printers and digital cameras. As
a standard default space, sRGB allows Internet users to closely match colors.
VESA DPMS
(Video Electronics Standards Association - Display Power Management Signaling)
The acronym VESA stands for “Video Electronics Standards Association”, and

Congratulations!
You have just purchased a TCO’99 approved and labelled product!
Your choice has provided you with a product developed for
professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the
burden on the environment and also to the further development of
environmentally adapted electronics products.
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the
adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and
other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are used
both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily
recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner
or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are
important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments.
Since all methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and
climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in
offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.
What does labelling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO’99 scheme which provides for international and
environmental labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort
by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and Statens
Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration).
Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of
electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical and fire safety.
The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals,
brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other
things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an
environmental policy which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its
operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period
of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length
of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the reduction
of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and good usability.
You will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met by this product on the right.

Environmental Requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their
purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a
computer casing can consist of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain
bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of
environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the
PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fisheating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been
found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur.
The relevant TCO’99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams
must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants
are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.
Cadmium**
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain
computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
The relevant TCO’99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display
screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.
Mercury**
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and
is toxic in high doses.
The relevant TCO’99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also
demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated
with the labelled unit.
CFCs (freons)
The relevant TCO’99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the
manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed
circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere,
causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer
(malignant melanoma) as a consequence.
Lead**
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the
nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning.
The relevant TCO’99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet
been developed.
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms.
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are haevy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
