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

ENGLISH

ENGLISH

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.

Below you will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met by this product. The complete

environmental criteria document may be ordered from:

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 fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative

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.

*

processes. Flame retardants have

ENGLISH

ENGLISH

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 heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.

SCREEN ADJUSTMENTS

n The screen adjustments described in this manual are designed to set image position and minimize

flicker or blur for the particular computer in use.

n The monitor is designed to provide the best performance at resolution of 1280 × 1024, but can not

provide the best at resolutions of less than 1280 × 1024 because the picture is automatically
stretched to fit the full screen. It is recommended to operate at resolution of 1280 × 1024 in normal use.

n Displayed text or lines will be blurred or irregular in thickness when the picture is stretched due to

the screen enlargement process.

n It is preferable to adjust the image position and frequency with the monitor controls, rather than the

computer software or utilities.

n Perform adjustments after a warm-up period of at least thirty minutes.
n Additional adjustments may be required after the Auto Set-up depending on the resolution or signal

timing.

n The Auto Set-up may not work correctly when displaying the picture other than the screen

adjustment pattern. In this case, manual adjustments are required.

There are two ways to adjust the screen. One way is automatic adjustment for Position, Clock and
Phase. The other way is performing each adjustment manually.
Perform the Auto Set-up first when the monitor is connected to a new computer, or resolution is
changed. If the screen has a flicker or blur, or the picture does not fit in the display area after
performing the Auto Set-up, manual adjustments are required. Both adjustments should be made by
using the screen adjustment patterns in the Adjustment Program on the Information CD.

This manual explains adjustment under Windows 95/98/2000/Me/XP.

Start “Adjustment Program” in the Information CD.

Set-up.

E Stretch the right side of the picture frame to the right edge of the display area by

adjusting the Clock.

ENGLISH

ENGLISH

F Adjust the Phase to correct horizontal wavy noise, flicker or blur in the zebra pattern.

G Select “Position” in the Adjustment Program and adjust the H-Position and V-Position

so that the frame of the cross-hatch pattern fits into the display area.

NOTE n When the left side of the picture frame moves away from the left edge of the display

area during the Clock adjustment, adjust Clock and H-Position alternately.

n Another way to make the Clock adjustment is to correct the vertical wavy lines in the

zebra pattern.

n The picture may flicker during the Clock, H-Position and V-Position adjustment.
n In case the picture frame is bigger or smaller than the data display area after the Clock

adjustment, repeat steps from C.

n In the case that a strong flicker or blurs remain on a part of the screen, repeat the

adjustments from E to readjust the Clock. If the flicker or blurs still remain then set the
refresh rate to 60Hz and repeat the adjustments from step C.

n Adjust the H-Position after the Phase adjustment if the horizontal position moves

during the adjustment.

POWER MANAGEMENT FEATURE

The power management feature of this product complies with every power saving requirement of
ENERGY STA R® and VESA DPMS. When activated, it automatically reduces unnecessary power
consumption of the monitor when your computer is not in use.
To use the feature, the monitor needs to be connected to a VESA DPMS compliant computer. There
is a power management step the monitor takes as described below. The power management function,
including any timer settings is configured by the operating system. Check your operating system
manual for information on how this can be configured.

Power Management Mode

When the H-sync signal / V-sync signal / H and V sync signals from the computer are off, the
monitor enters into Power Management Mode which reduces the power consumption to less than
5W. The screen becomes dark, and the power indicator turns to orange. From Power Management
Mode, the image reappears in several seconds when either the keyboard or the mouse are
touched again.
