The dimmer for the power LED and keys changes with the display brilliance. Also, when you connect the monitor unit to FAR-21x7, FEA-2107 or FCR-21x7, the dimmer for the power LED and
keys changes with the brilliance modes (Day, Dusk, Night) of those models. When you connect
the monitor unit to the equipment other than FAR-21x7, FEA-2107 or FCR-21x7, the control is
done from the MU-190. If the keys of MU-190 are not illuminated, provide external, dimmable illumination, e.g. gooseneck lamp.
3.2How to Turn the Power On/Off
3.2.1Turn the power on/off
How to turn on/off the power depends on the setting of the slide switch. The slide switch is set
when the monitor unit is installed. See section 1.8.
Note: The screen refreshes slower in low ambient temperature.

The external equipment connected to the DVI port (DVI-D1 or DVI-D2) can turn on/off the monitor
unit. See the operator’s manual for the external equipment connected.
Note 1: You can not turn on the power with the /BRILL key on MU-190.
Note 2: When you connect the cables to both DVI-D1 and DVI-D2 ports, turn off the power of both
equipment to turn off the monitor unit.
Slide switch “OFF”
1.Press the /BRILL key to turn on the monitor unit.
2.Press and hold the /BRILL key for three seconds to
turn off the monitor unit. While you hold the key, the
message shown right appears on the screen.
This monitor will shut down in three seconds.
SHUT DOWN
3.2.2Unlock the key operation
All the keys of the monitor unit are locked by default. Unlock the keys to operate all menus.
1.Turn off the monitor unit.
2.While you hold the PIP key, press the /BRILL key to turn on the monitor unit. Press and hold
the PIP key for more than five seconds. The key operation is unlocked.
Note: When the slide switch is ON, turn on the connected external equipment while you press
the PIP key to turn on the monitor unit.
3.To lock the key operation, turn off the monitor unit and then turn it on while you hold the PIP
key.
The setting of [KEY LOCK] in the [INSTALLATION SETTING] menu ([OFF/ON]) is mutually
changed.
3.3How to Adjust the Display Brilliance
You can adjust the display brilliance as follows:
Note: This function is available when [AUTO DIMMER] on the [SYSTEM] menu is [OFF] and [EXT
BRILL CTRL] on the [INSTALLATION SETTING] menu is [OFF]. See section 2.1 and
paragraph 3.6.1.
1.Press the /BRILL key momentarily to show the BRILL
adjustment window. The window shown right disappears if there is no operation for five seconds.
2.Press the W or X key to adjust the brilliance (setting range: 1 - 50).
3.Press the S or T key to close the window.
Warning: If you turn off the monitor unit with minimum brilliance, the unit starts with minimum brilliance the next time it is turned on. This can make it difficult to see warnings from applications connected, etc. depending on current lighting conditions. If this occurs, do the following according to
the equipment connected;
For FAR-21x7, FEA-2107, FCR-21x7: The brilliance of the monitor unit is adjusted only via the
application of those equipment. See the appropriate operator’s manual.
For Non-SOLAS: Press the /BRILL key repeatedly to adjust the brilliance.

4.MAINTENANCE,
WARNING
TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTICE
Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant or contact spray
to coating or plastic parts of the equipment.
Those items contain organic solvents that can damage coating
and plastic parts, especially plastic connectors.
4.1Maintenance
Routine maintenance
Regular maintenance is important for good performance. Check the following on a regular basis
to keep the equipment in good condition.
• Check that the connectors at the bottom of the monitor unit are tightly fastened.
• Check the ground wire and ground terminal for rust. Clean if necessary. Confirm that the ground
wire is tightly fastened.
• Remove dust and dirt from the monitor unit with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use chemical cleaners to
clean any part of the monitor unit. They can remove paint and markings.
• Wipe the LCD carefully to prevent scratching, using an LCD cleaning cloth (supplied as accessory). To remove dirt or salt deposits, use an LCD cleaner, wiping slowly with tissue paper so as to
dissolve the dirt or salt. Change paper frequently so the salt or dirt will not scratch the LCD. Do
not use solvents such as thinner, acetone or benzene for cleaning. Also, do not use degreaser or
antifog solution, as they can strip the coating from the LCD.
Fuse replacement
The fuse in the fuse holder at the bottom of the display
protects the equipment from overvoltage and overcurrent.
If the fuse blows, find the cause before you replace it. If the
fuse blows again after replacement, request service.

LCD replacement
Use the proper fuse.
Use of a wrong fuse can cause
fire or damage to the equipment.
WARNING
The life of the LCD is approximately 50,000 hours. The actual number of hours depends on ambient temperature and humidity. When the brilliance cannot be raised sufficiently, replace the
LCD.
Fan replacement
The life of the each fan is shown in the table on the next page. The actual number of hours depends on ambient temperature. When the fan does not rotate sufficiently, the message "FAN ERROR" is shown. Turn off the power and call for service to request replacement of the fan.
See the following table to find the possible causes of trouble and the actions to restore normal
operation. If repair of the equipment is necessary, report the result of the troubleshooting to the
service technician.
