heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants,

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

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 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.

must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and good usability.

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* processes. Flame retardants have 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.

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.

v

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.

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a high resolution monitor. It will give you high resolution performance and convenient reliable operation in a variety of video operating modes.

Features

The monitor is a 17 inches (16.0 inches viewable ) intelligent, microprocessor based monitor compatible with most analog RGB

(Red, Green,

Apple , Macintosh , Centris , Quadra , and Macintosh II family.

USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports at the back of the monitor are prepared for the USB cable and hub. You can easily and flexibly connect USB-designed devices-such as a mouse, keyboard or printer- to the monitor for true Plug and Play function.

The monitor provides crisp text and vivid color graphics with

VGA, SVGA, XGA, and VESA Ergo modes (non-interlaced), and most Macintosh compatible color video cards when used with the appropriate adaptor. The monitor's wide compatibility makes it possible to upgrade video cards or software without purchasing a new monitor.

Digitally controlled auto-scanning is done with the micro- processor for horizontal scan frequencies between 30 and 96kHz, and vertical scan frequencies between 50-160Hz. The microprocessor-based intelligence allows the monitor to operate in each frequency mode with the precision of a fixed frequency monitor.

The microprocessor-based digital controls allow you to adjust conveniently a variety of image controls by using the OSD (On Screen Display).

This monitor is capable of producing a maximum horizontal resolution of 1600 dots and a maximum vertical resolution of

1200 lines. It is well suited for CAD work and sophisticated windowing environments.

For low cost of monitor operation, this monitor is certified as meeting the EPA Energy Star requirements, and utilizes the VESA Display Power Management Signalling (DPMS) protocol for power saving during non-use periods.
