Notes on ergonomic colour adjustment

If you select colours for the display in your application programmes, take note of the information below.
The primary colours blue and red on a dark background do not produce the minimum required contrast of 3:1 and are therefore not suitable for continuous text and data entry.
When using several colours for characters and background and giving the primary colours full modulation, you can obtain very suitable colour combinations (see the following table):
Background Characters
black white purple blue cyan green yellow red black + + - + + + ­white + + + - - - +
purple + + - - - - -
blue - + - + - + -
cyan + - - + - - -
green + - - + - - -
yellow + - + + - - +
red - + - - - - +
+ Colour combination very suitable
- Colour combination not suitable because colour locations are too close together, thin characters are not identifiable or rigorous focusing is demanded of the human eye.

VESA-DDC-compatible VGA interface

Your monitor is equipped with a VESA-DDC-compatible VGA interface. VESA-DDC (Video Electronics Standard Association, Display Data Channel) is used as the communications interface between the monitor and the PC. If your computer is equipped with a VESA-DDC-compatible VGA interface, it can automatically read the data for ensuring optimum operation from your monitor and select the appropriate settings.
If the monitor 4312 FA is not yet displayed in the list of monitors, you can select the following monitor instead:

Trouble shooting

Should an error occur, first check the following points. If the distortion is still not eliminated, the monitor should, if possible, be checked on another PC and/or with another data cable.
If you cannot solve the problem, contact our customer service centre.
The display is too small or not centred
The monitor recognises an undefined mode (see "Technical data").
Ê Adjust the position and the size of the display and save your settings (see "Operation of the
monitor").
No display (power indicator does not light)
Ê Check whether the monitor is switched on. Ê Check whether the power cable is connected properly to the power adapter and to the system
unit and whether the power adapter cable is connected properly to the monitor.
Ê Check whether the mains socket is live.

No display (power indicator lights)
Ê Check whether the system unit is switched on. Ê Check whether the data cable for the monitor is correctly attached to the monitor and the
monitor port on the system unit.
Ê Press any key on the PC keyboard - the PC may be in energy saving mode. Ê Alter the brightness and/or contrast until you get a picture.
Picture disturbances (vertical and horizontal lines, picture noise)
Ê First in the Image Lock setting window, set the Coarse function to remove any vertical bars. Ê Then set the Fine function in the Image Lock setting window to eliminate the picture noise or the
horizontal lines.
If one of the operating systems Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95/98, Windows NT or OS/2 (with Windows emulation installed) is used, the monitor can be adjusted with the

floppy disk supplied.
Permanently unlit or lit pixels
The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen display. A few isolated constant lit or unlit pixels may be present. The maximum permitted number of pixels faults is stipulated in the stringent international standard ISO 13406-2 (Class II).
Example: a 17" flat-screen monitor with a resolution of 1024 x 1280 has 1024 x 1280 = 1310720 pixels. Each pixel consists of three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are about 4 million dots in total. According to ISO 13406-2 (Class II), a maximum of 6 pixels and 7 subpixels may be defective, i. e. a total of 25 faulted dots. This corresponds to approx. 0,00062 % of the entire screen surface!
The flat screen monitors from Fujitsu Siemens Computers are typically considerably better than requirements defined in this standard.
The screen becomes darker
The background lighting has a limited lifetime. If your monitor display should become too dark, the background lighting will have to be exchanged. Please contact our customer service centre.
