A screen controller with VGA interface is required to control the B15-1 LCD monitor. The monitor
processes the data supplied to it by the screen controller. The screen controller/the associated
driver software is responsible for setting the modes (resolution and refresh rate).
When putting the monitor into operation for the first time, the screen display should be optimally
adapted to the screen controller used and adjusted in accordance with your needs (see the
"Changing the monitor settings" section in the"Operation of the monitor" chapter).
Target group
You don't need to be an "expert" to perform the operations described here. Do, however, read the
"Important notes" chapter in the operating manual of the computer and in this operating manual.
In the event of any problems occurring, please contact your sales outlet or our help desk.

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
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.

Colour monitor B15-1
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 computer. 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 B15-1 is not yet displayed in the list of monitors, you can select the
following monitor instead:

Fujitsu Siemens 3815 FA, 3814 FA, 382V, 381V
Siemens or Siemens Nixdorf MCF 3511 TA, MCM 1405 ND
Preset operating modes
The picture position and size have been set to optimum values at the factory for the
operating modes listed above. Depending on the screen controller used, it may be
i
necessary to adjust the display position and size. In this case, you can change and save
the settings (see "Operation of the monitor").
The following are the most frequently used of the preset operating modes:
Horizontal frequency Refresh rate Screen resolution
31.5 kHz
31.5 kHz
37.5 kHz
37.9 kHz
46.9 kHz
48.4 kHz
60.0 kHz
For ergonomic reasons, a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels is recommended. Because of the
technology used (active matrix) an LCD monitor provides a totally flicker-free picture even with a
refresh rate of 60 Hz.

Colour monitor B15-1
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 15" flat-screen monitor with a
resolution of 1024 x 768 has 1024 x 768 =
786432 pixels. Each pixel consists of three
subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are
about 2.4 million dots in total.
According to ISO 13406-2 (Class II), a maximum
of 4 pixels and 5 subpixels may be defective, i.
e. a total of 17 faulted dots. This corresponds to
approx. 0,002% of the entire screen surface!
