AccuColor® Control Systems

AccuColor® Control Systems: Six color presets select the desired color setting (sRGB and NATIVE color presets are standard and cannot be changed). R,G,B: Increases or decreases Red, Green or Blue color depending upon which is selected. The change in color will appear on screen and the direction (increase or decrease) will be shown by the bars.

NATIVE: sRGB: sRGB mode dramatically improves the color fidelity in the desktop

environment by a single standard RGB color space. With this color supported environment, the operator could easily and confidently communicate color without further color management overhead in the most common situations.

Tools

LANGUAGE: OSM® control menus are available in seven languages. OSM Position: You can choose where you would like the OSM control

image to appear on your screen. Selecting OSM Location allows you to manually adjust the position of the OSM control menu left, right, down or up.

OSM TURN OFF: The OSM control menu will stay on as long as it is in use. In the OSM Turn Off submenu, you can select how long the monitor waits after the last touch of a button to shut off the OSM control menu. The preset choices are 10, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 120 seconds.

OSM LOCK OUT: This control completely locks out access to the OSM control functions without Mute, Sound Volume, Brightness and Contrast. When attempting to activate OSM controls while in the Lock Out mode, a screen will appear indicating the OSM controls are locked out. To activate the OSM Lock Out function, press SELECT, then “+” key and hold down simultaneously. To de-activate the OSM Lock Out, press SELECT, then “+” key and hold down simultaneously.

RESOLUTION NOTIFIER: This optimal resolution is 1024 x 768. If ON is selected, a message will appear on the screen after 30 seconds, notifying you that the resolution is not at 1024 x 768.

HOT KEY: You can adjust the sound volume and brightness directly. When this function is set to ON, you can adjust the brightness with volume with + or - key, while the OSM menu is off.

OFF TIMER: Monitor will automatically power-down when the end user has selected a pre-determined amount of time.

FACTORY PRESET: Selecting Factory Preset allows you to reset all OSM control settings back to the factory settings. The RESET button will need to be held down for several seconds to take effect. Individual settings can be reset by highlighting the control to be reset and pressing the RESET button.

Safety Precautions and Maintenance

FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, PLEASE NOTE THE

FOLLOWING WHEN SETTING UP AND USING

THE MULTISYNC

• DO NOT OPEN THE MONITOR. There are no user serviceable parts inside and opening or

removing covers may expose you to dangerous shock hazards or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

•

Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor near water.

• Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage

points, which can be harmful or fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.

• Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to the cord may cause shock or fire.

• Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable cart, stand or table, as the monitor may fall,

causing serious damage to the monitor.

• When operating the MultiSync LCD monitor with its AC 125-240V power supply, use a power

supply cord that matches the power supply voltage of the AC power outlet being used. The power supply cord you use must have been approved by and comply with the safety standards of your country. (Type H05VV-F should be used in Europe)

• In UK, use a BS-approved power cord with molded plug having a black (5A) fuse installed for use

with this monitor. If a power cord is not supplied with this monitor, please contact your supplier.

• Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor outdoors.

• The inside of the flourescent tube located within the LCD monitor contains mercury.

Please follow the bylaws or rules of your municipality to dispose of the tube properly.

Immediately unplug your monitor from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.

• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the monitor.

• If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.

• If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.

• If the monitor does not operate normally by following operating instructions.

• Do not bend power cord.

• Do not use monitor in high temperatured, humid, dusty, or oily areas.

• If glass is broken, handle with care.

• Do not cover vent on monitor.

• If monitor or glass is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal and handle with care.

• Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that heat can properly

dissipate. Do not block ventilated openings or place the monitor near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not put anything on top of monitor.

• The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the system

CAUTION

Image Persistence

Image persistence is when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long period of time should be avoided.

To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image was displayed. For example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to erase the image.

NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC-Mitsubishi Electronics Display recommends using a moving screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use.

from the power supply. The monitor should be installed close to a power outlet which is easily accessible.

• Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for transporting.

CORRECT PLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE MONITOR

CAN REDUCE EYE, SHOULDER AND NECK FATIGUE. CHECK THE

FOLLOWING WHEN YOU POSITION THE MONITOR:

• For optimum performance, allow 20 minutes for

warm-up.

• Adjust the monitor height so that the top of the

screen is at or slightly below eye level. Your eyes should look slightly downward when viewing the middle of the screen.

•

Position your monitor no closer than 16 inches and no further away than 28 inches from your eyes. The optimal distance is 20 inches.

• Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an

object at least 20 feet away. Blink often.

• Position the monitor at a 90° angle to windows and other light sources to

minimize glare and reflections. Adjust the monitor tilt so that ceiling lights do not reflect on your screen.

• If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your screen, use an anti-glare filter.

• Clean the LCD monitor surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using

any cleaning solution or glass cleaner!

• Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls to enhance readability.

• Use a document holder placed close to the screen.

• Position whatever you are looking at most of the time (the screen or

reference material) directly in front of you to minimize turning your head while you are typing.

• Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the monitor for long periods of time to avoid

image persistence (after-image effects).

• Get regular eye checkups.

Ergonomics

To realize the maximum ergonomics benefits, we recommend the following:

•

Use the preset Size and Position controls with standard signals

•

Use the preset Color Setting

•

Use non-interlaced signals with a vertical refresh rate between 60-75Hz

•

Do not use primary color blue on a dark background, as it is difficult to see and may produce eye fatigue to insufficient contrast

normal and necessary for all current flat panel technologies when displaying non-native resolutions full screen. In flat panel technologies, each dot on the screen is actually one pixel, so to expand resolutions to full screen, an interpolation of the resolution must be done.
