high-end choice for graphic
design, video editing, 3-D CAD, and
other imaging tasks. Featuring a wide
color gamut, uniform brightness across
the screen, and fast response times,
they are equally suitable for working
with still or moving images.
SX3031W 30"Color LCD Monitor
FEATURES
Wide Gamut
These wide gamut
LCD monitors reproduce 95% or more of
the Adobe RGB color
space so they can
display most colors in
a photograph taken
in Adobe RGB mode.
Furthermore, an
sRGB mode is included to accurately
reproduce this narrower but commonly used color
space. This ensures that colors meant for sRGB such as
those used on web pages and any photos taken with a
digital camera’s sRGB mode will be reproduced on the
screen as intended.
Fast Response Time
An overdrive circuit is included to reduce midtone
response time and ensure that movies and other
moving images look clean and sharp with an absolute
minimum of blurring and ghosting.

Brightness and Color Uniformity with DUE
Uniformity errors usually seen as brighter or darker
areas on the screen are characteristic of all LCD panels. A Digital Uniformity Equalizer (DUE) function
effectively compensates for these errors, resulting in a
much more uniform image.
Without DUE: uneven
brightness distribution
With DUE: uniform brightness across the screen
12-Bit Gamma, 16-Bit Internal Processing
EIZO’s latest integrated circuit is built-in and features a 12-bit look-up table with a color palette of 68
billion colors from which the most appropriate 16.7
million (8-bits) are displayed. It also has 16-bit internal processing for smooth display of grayscale tones,
especially in dark areas of an image.
Without overdrive circuit With overdrive circuit
With 10-bit processing, the error rate is high in low tonal
areas during calculation. With 16-bit processing, accuracy is
significantly improved resulting in fewer conversion errors.

New Button Guide
The FlexScan SX2462W incorporates a new onscreen button guide. Even when working in a dark
environment, button names and icons can be seen,
making screen adjustment easier than ever.
Flexible Screen Positioning
The stands let you set the screen to
the optimum viewing position with
wide-ranging height adjustment, 40°
tilt, and 70° swivel. They also pivot
90° for portrait mode viewing.
Color Vision Deficiency
Simulation
To accommodate people with red-green color vision
deficiency (protanopia and deuteranopia), care must
be taken in choosing color schemes for things like
maps, signage, indicator lights, etc. The FlexScan
SX2462W instantly simulates how still and moving
images appear to people with color vision deficiency,
and does so much faster than software-based tools
that slow down with larger files.

An on-screen button guide is provided for easy monitor

bringing EIZO’s most ecological
and ergonomic features to your office
or trading floor. These “EcoView”
widescreen monitors feature a lightweight,
compact design, an energy-saving
presence sensor, and extremely low power
consumption when in normal operation.
FEATURES
Presence Sensor for Power Savings
An integrated presence sensor called EcoView Sense
prompts the monitor to switch to power save mode
when it does not detect anyone for 40 seconds with
the EV2303W and EV2023W, or 70 seconds with the
EV2333W and EV2313W, and then resumes normal operation when the user returns. To prevent the
screen from reactivating when it shouldn’t, EcoView
Sense differentiates between the user’s presence and a
still object like an empty chair.
EV2333W
lows the monitor to be shipped in a smaller container
which uses up to 100% recycled material.
23"Color LCD Monitor
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%.
Placement Flexibility
EIZO introduces two new ergonomic stands: the
highly-versatile FlexStand (shown below) and the
space-saving TriStand. Both stands offer tilt, swivel
and height adjustment. The FlexStand also offers
portrait rotation and a maximum 225 mm range of
height adjustment. A quick release feature allows for
easy monitor reconfiguration.
EcoView Sense automatically signals the screen to activate
and stay on, or switch to power save mode by detecting the
user’s presence or absence.
Thinner and Lighter
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 al-

Optimized Brightness with Auto EcoView
A sensor on the front of the monitor called Auto
EcoView measures ambient light and optimizes the
screen’s brightness to levels akin to viewing a sheet
of paper under typical office lighting conditions.
Since the screen is never too bright, eye strain is
reduced while power consumption is cut by up to
40% compared to operating the monitor with Auto
EcoView turned off and set to the default factory
brightness of 100%.
Energy Efficiency Gauge
To encourage
environmental
consciousness
while working,
a user-activated
gauge called “EcoView Index” indicates energy consumption in correlation with the screen’s brightness.
When EcoView Index is fully illuminated, the monitor is operating at optimum energy efficiency.
Zero Watts When Turned Off
When the power save mode and off timer are set,
the EV2303W and EV2023W consume less than 0.7
watts and the EV2333W and EV2313W consume less
than 1 watt of power. When turned off via the main
power switch, they consume no electricity at all.
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.
Preset Modes for Optimum Viewing
These monitors come with five preset 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 settings.
Eco-Friendly Backlight,
Lower Power Consumption
The EV2313W incorporates a mercury-free LED
(light-emitting diode) backlight. With the LED backlight and Auto EcoView in use, the monitor consumes
just 16 W during typical operation.
Next Generation Connectivity
DisplayPort connectivity with the EV2333W
and EV2313W allows digital audio and video
signal transmission via a single, high-bandwidth cable at
distances up to 15 meters without any signal degradation.

mental concerns, and demands for
increased worker productivity require cre-
ative solutions. To address these challenges,
EIZO offers five monitors with reduced
power consumption and superb visual er-
gonomics. Available in 24.1" and 22" sizes
with VA or TN technology, these monitors
let you go green and save money at the
same time.
FEATURES
Optimized Brightness with Auto EcoView
A sensor on the front bezel measures ambient light
and optimizes the screen’s brightness, ensuring that
these monitors are never too bright or too dark.
This results in improved ergonomics while cutting
power consumption by up to 51%.

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 effi ciency by
12.5%.

Zero Watts When Turned Off
The power save mode and off timer on these monitors reduces their energy consumption to less than
1.5 watts. When turned off via the main power
switch, they consume no electricity at all.
Wide Color Gamut
The S2433W, S2243W, and S2233W reproduce 95%
or more of the Adobe RGB color space. This means
they can display most
colors of a photograph
taken in a camera’s
Adobe RGB mode
including many shades
of cyan and emerald
green that fall outside
the color gamut of typical sRGB monitors.
