Using the SpectraView Engine

English

When the SVE is on, the monitor’s internal processor will handle many of the color management features and the user color
controls allow a unique level of precision to be achieved. The white point is adjusted using a CIE x, y control and the grayscale
response of the display is calculated and managed by the monitor itself.

The SVE includes Uniformity Correction, where different levels of compensation can be selected to enable a trade-off between
the most uniform brightness and color vs. maximum brightness.

The SVE has five Picture Mode memories that can be individually configured and selected. Each individual Picture Mode can
store fully customized color settings. This allows you to quickly switch between different settings by just changing between
picture modes.

Using the SVE will also give access to other advanced functionality, such as the ability to emulate several modes of human color
vision deficiency as well as the ability to select the monitor’s output color gamut.

To change the settings in each SVE picture mode:

Presets have been configured with settings for general use as described in the “Preset Types” table next page. When choosing
a preset for the SVE picture mode, all of the settings are immediately adjusted to match the preset. Each setting can be
individually adjusted to customize as needed.

1. Press the MENU button.

2. Navigate to the [PICTURE] menu then to [PICTURE MODE].

Using Stand-alone calibration

This feature performs color calibration of the monitor without using an external computer or software. This is useful for color
matching a small number of monitors quickly. It also updates the factory color measurement data used by the monitor’s internal
SpectraView Engine (SVE) color processor.

Updating the factory color data with measurements taken from a color sensor results in color related settings, shown on the
OSD, closely matching measurements from the color sensor. In effect, the color sensor’s measurements become the new
reference for all of the SVE’s internal color calculations. All color presets in the monitor automatically update to use the new
reference.

Requirements for Stand Alone Calibration:

• NEC MDSVSENSOR3 color sensor. This sensor connects directly to the USB1 (SENSOR) port on the monitor. The monitor
automatically takes screen measurements directly from the color sensor. See Appendix A for purchase and availability
information.

Or

• A near-range colorimeter with a measurement readout display in CIE Y/x, y format with Y in units of cd/m2. Measurements
are taken manually and each reading must be entered into the monitor via the OSD using the remote control. [VALIDATION]
and [WHITE COPY] are not available.

NOTE: Other color sensor models and types are not supported.

NOTE:  • For best calibration results, it is recommended the monitor be allowed to warm up for at least 30 minutes before

starting the calibration or measurement process.
• It is not necessary to recalibrate the other Picture Modes in the monitor after performing the Self Calibration.

Updating the monitor’s internal reference automatically updates all color settings.

• The original factory measurements can be restored at any time.
• Access to each monitor’s USB1 (SENSOR) port is necessary to use this feature with the NEC MDSVSENSOR3

color sensor. Be sure to provide adequate access when installing the monitors.

• Differences between the factory color measurements and those taken with a color sensor are to be expected.

Differences can be due to many factors, such as variations between color sensor measurement technologies and
device calibration and drift, measurement position on the screen, and video signal differences.

• For color matching and managing a large number of monitors, the NEC Display Wall Calibrator software is

recommended. See Appendix A for details.

• To open Stand Alone Calibration OSD menu, select Calibration (see page 105) on the OSD. Please make sure

[SPECTRAVIEW ENGINE] is [ON] (see page 105).

Self calibration

This function updates the monitor’s internal SpectraView Engine color processor to use measurements taken using a supported
color sensor device. These measurements will become the reference for all color settings in the monitor.

When an NEC MDSVSENSOR3 color sensor is connected to the monitor’s USB1(SENSOR) port, the monitor takes
measurements and is calibrated automatically. Place the color sensor at the center of the screen and follow the messages
displayed.

Otherwise, if using a near-range colorimeter device, measurements must be taken manually with the device and the CIE Y/x/y
values individually entered via the OSD using the remote control. Y is in units of cd/m2.

Depending on the monitor usage and other factors, performing a Self Calibration at least once per year is recommended.

English

Reset calibration

This deletes the color measurement data created by the Self Calibration function and returns to the original factory internal
reference color measurement data. All Picture Modes will automatically be updated. If you are using NEC display Wall Calibrator,
uniformity adjustment data is also deleted.

Validation*

This can be used to determine if the Self Calibration operation should be performed.
It compares measurements taken of various color patches on the screen by the color sensor with the expected values calculated

by the SVE, which uses the current internal reference color measurement data. The result of this comparison is indicated as an
average color difference (dE) value. Larger values mean there is a larger difference between the measurements and the internal
reference. If the dE value is higher than 3.0, Self Calibration is recommended to update the internal reference color data.

*: The Self Calibration function must have been previously performed before this function is available on the OSD menu.

NOTE: • [Self calibration], [Validation] and [WHITE COPY] are not available if the source HDMI signal resolution is

3840 x 2160 (60 Hz).
• The date and time stamped results of the “Self calibration” and “Validation” functions are stored in the monitor and

White copy*

BA

This function can be used to “copy” the luminance and white point from another monitor when used in a multi-monitor
installation. This process is done by measuring the color of a monitor and setting those measured values into the monitor being
adjusted. This can be useful in situations where it is necessary to match a monitor in color to neighboring monitors without
having to recalibrate all monitors.

Before starting, it is necessary to input a full-white video signal to all of the monitors. Select the monitor that will be used as the
Target – or source - of the copy operation (A).

This function will measure the luminance and white point of the target monitor (A), and set these values to the current Picture
Mode of the destination monitor (B).

You can also fine-tune the measurement result while checking the screen color. If you want to return to the measured value,
select re-measurement.

*: The Self Calibration function must have been previously performed before this function is available on the OSD menu.

Shift to No Signal

Under normal operation on the other video input connections, when video signal is lost, such as when a Blu-ray player turns off,
the monitor registers “No Signal” and enters power save mode.

When the Media Player is the current signal input, the Media Player is always on and sends video signal to the monitor. This
prevents the monitor from entering power save mode, even when the Media Player is not actively playing files.

When SHIFT TO NO SIGNAL is enabled, the Media Player basically tells the monitor that there is no current video signal and to
shift to no signal mode. This allows the monitor to register “No Signal” and enter power save mode, just as it would on the other
video inputs when loss of video signal occurs.

The amount of time between when the Media Player is last used before it tells the monitor to shift to no signal can be adjusted.
The monitor shifts to no signal under the following conditions:

• After the Media Player stops playing content.

• While the monitor is displaying the Media Player home screen, USB window or SD CARD window, and no buttons have
been pressed on the remote control or monitor control panel during the interval period you set.

Menu Function

ENABLE Check the checkbox to enable [SHIFT TO NO SIGNAL].

INTERVAL Set the time between when the Media Player is last used to when the monitor goes into no signal

mode.

Select OK then press SET/POINT ZOOM button on the remote control to save the settings. If OK is not pressed, the settings you
configured are not saved.

Copying Files to the microSD memory card

There are two options for copying files to the microSD memory card when it is already inserted in the monitor. Files can be
copied from a network folder or a USB storage device via the CONTENTS COPY option, or via the SD-CARD VIEWER in a web
browser.

Copying files from a USB storage device is useful to easily change the content on the microSD memory card, without removing
the microSD memory card and its cover from the monitor. Copying the files from a network folder or via a web browser are useful
when the monitor is in a location that is not easily accessible.

English−64

Using CONTENTS COPY in the Media Player

When using the CONTENTS COPY option, the microSD memory card will be erased then the files will be copied from the
selected folder.

Copying Files to the microSD memory card

English−72

For HDCP Content

HDCP is a system for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a digital signal. If you are unable to view material via
the digital inputs, this does not necessarily mean that the monitor is not functioning properly. With the implementation of HDCP,
there may be cases in which certain content is protected by HDCP and might not be displayed due to the decision/intention of
the HDCP community (Digital Content Protection, LLC).

Due to these security restrictions in video content, HDCP video content can only be tiled across a limited number of monitors.
HDCP video content is generally commercially produced Blu-rays and DVDs, television broadcast, and streaming media
services.

Setting the Remote Control ID Function

The optional remote control can be used to control up to 100 individual MultiSync monitors using what is called the REMOTE
CONTROL ID mode. The REMOTE CONTROL ID mode works in conjunction with the Monitor ID, allowing control of up to 100
individual MultiSync monitors. For example, if there are many monitors being used in the same area, a remote control in normal
mode would send signals to every monitor at the same time (see Figure 1). Using the remote in REMOTE CONTROL ID mode
will only operate one specific monitor within the group (see Figure 2).

English

To Set Remote Control ID

While holding down the REMOTE ID SET button on the remote control, use the
KEYPAD to input the Monitor ID (1-100) of the monitor to be controlled via remote.
The remote can then be used to operate the monitor having that specific Monitor
ID number.

When 0 is selected or when the remote control is in normal mode, all monitors will
be operated.

To Set/Reset Remote Control Mode

ID Mode - To enter ID Mode press the REMOTE ID SET button and hold down for
2 seconds.

Normal Mode - To return to Normal Mode press the REMOTE ID CLEAR button

Network Setting by Using an HTTP Browser

Overview

Connecting the monitor to a network allows for remote control of the monitor from a computer connected to the same network.
The IP address and subnet mask of the monitor can be set on the Network Setting screen of the web browser by using an HTTP

server. When connecting to a DHCP server, the IP address and subnet mask will be obtained automatically when the monitor is
turned on. Please be sure to use “Microsoft Internet Explorer 10” or a higher version for the web browser.

This device uses “JavaScript” and “Cookies” and the browser should be set to accept these functions. Refer to the help files for
the web browser to change the settings to use JavaScript and Cookies.

To access the HTTP server, launch a web browser on a computer connected to the same network as the monitor and enter the
following URL in the web address field:

Network Setting

http://<the Monitor’s IP address>/index.html

NOTE:  • The default IP address is assigned automatically to the monitor.

• NaViSet Administrator software for managing monitors over the network is recommended. It can be download from

the NEC Display website (See page 98).

• If the [MONITOR NETWORK SETTINGS] screen does not appear in the web browser, press the Ctrl+F5 keys to

refresh your web browser (or clear the cache).

• If the monitor appears to be slow in response to commands or clicks on buttons in the browser, or the general speed

of operation is unacceptable, this may be due to network traffic or the settings on your network. Should this happen,
consult your network administrator.

• The monitor may not respond if the buttons shown on the browser are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should

this happen, wait a moment and repeat. If you still can’t get a response, turn the monitor off and then back on.

Preparation Before Use

Connect the monitor to the network, using a commercially available LAN cable, before attempting to use browser operations.
Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and the setting

method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have been set will not be shown,
depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be reflected in operation. It is
recommended that a proxy server is not used unless the network environment requires it.

Handling of the Address for Operation via a Browser

A host name can be used in the following cases (corresponding to the IP address of the monitor):
The host name must be registered in the domain name system (DNS) by the network administrator. You can then access the

network settings of the monitor via this registered host name by using a compatible browser.
If the host name has been configured in the “HOSTS” file of the computer being used, you can then access the network settings

of the monitor via this host name by using a compatible browser.
Example 1: When the host name of the monitor has been set to “pd.nec.co.jp”, access is gained to the network setting by

specifying http://pd.nec.co.jp/index.html for the address or the entry column of the URL.

Example 2: When the IP address of the monitor is “192.168.73.1”, access is gained to the mail alert settings by specifying

http://192.168.73.1/index.html for the address or the entry column of the URL.

English−90

Screen Image and Video Signal Issues

No picture

• The signal cable should be completely connected to the
display card/computer.

• The display card should be completely seated in its slot.

• Check the main Power Switch, it should be in the ON
position.

• Make sure both the computer and monitor are powered
on.

• Make sure that a supported resolution has been selected
on the display card or system being used. If in doubt,
please refer to the user’s manual of the display controller
or system to change the resolution.

• Check the monitor and your display card with respect to
compatibility and recommended signal timings.

• Check the signal cable connector for bent or pushed-in
pins.

• The monitor automatically goes into standby at the
preset time period after the video signal is lost. Press
the power on button on the remote control or press the

button on the monitor.

• Check the [DVI MODE] settings when a DVD player or
computer equipment is connected to the DVI input.

• If you unplug the signal cable when starting the
computer, images may not be displayed. Turn off the
monitor and the computer and then connect the signal
cable and turn on the computer and the monitor.

• Check the [OPTION POWER] setting when you use
Option Board accessories.

• Check for HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) content. HDCP is a system for preventing
illegal copying of video data sent over a digital signal.
If you are unable to view material via the digital inputs,
this does not necessarily mean that the monitor is
not functioning properly. With the implementation of
HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is
protected by HDCP and might not be displayed due to
the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital
Content Protection, LLC).

Snowy Picture, Black Screen in DVI input

• Check the DVI MODE setting when a DVD player or
computer equipment is connected to the DVI input.

Image persistence

• Please be aware that LCD Technology may experience
a phenomenon known as Image Persistence. Image
Persistence occurs when a residual or “ghost” image of
a previous image remains visible on the screen. Unlike
CRT monitors, the image persistence of monitors is not
permanent, but single still image being displayed for a
long period of time should be avoided. To alleviate image
persistence, put the monitor into standby via remote
control or turn the monitor’s main power off 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 in standby or main
power off for one hour to erase the image.

NOTE:  As with all personal display devices, NEC DISPLAY

SOLUTIONS recommends displaying moving
images, using a moving screen saver, or changing
still images at regular intervals whenever the screen
is idle, or turning it into standby or main power off of
the monitor when not in use.

The image is blinking

• If you use a signal repeater or distributor or a long
cable, this may cause image roughness or blink for a
moment. In this case please connect the cable to the
monitor directly without using a repeater or a distributor,
or replace the cable with a higher quality cable. Using
a twisted pair extender may cause image roughness
depending on the environment where the monitor is in or
the cable you are using. For further information please
ask your supplier.

• Some HDMI cables may not show a correct image.
If input resolution is 1920 x 2160, 3840 x 2160 or
4096 x 2160, please use an HDMI cable which is
approved to support 4K resolution.

English

English−91

The image is unstable, unfocused or swimming is
apparent

• The signal cable should be completely attached to the
computer.

• Please adjust settings in the [ADJUST] of the [PICTURE
MODE] by checking displayed image on the screen.

• When the display mode is changed, the OSD Image
Adjust settings may need to be re-adjusted.

• Check the monitor and your display card with respect to
compatibility and recommended signal timings.

• If text looks garbled, change the video mode to non­interlaced and use a 60 Hz refresh rate.

• The image may be distorted when turning the power on
or changing the settings.

The image of component signal is greenish

• Check to see if the VGA (YPbPr) input connector is
selected.

The image is not properly reproduced

• Use the OSD Image Adjust controls to increase or
decrease the coarse adjustment.

• Make sure that a supported resolution has been selected
on the display card or system being used.

• If in doubt, please refer to the user’s manual of the
display card or system to change the resolution.

Selected resolution is not displayed properly

• Check the Information OSD to verify the appropriate
resolution has been selected.

• If the resolution you set is over or under a range, “OUT of
RANGE” window will appear then warn you. Please set
supported resolution at the connected computer.

Video contrast is either too high or too low

• Check that the correct option for the VIDEO LEVEL is
selected for the input signal.
This only applies to video signals on the DisplayPort,
HDMI, and OPTION inputs.

– Blacks are crushed and whites are clipped -

change the VIDEO LEVEL to RAW.
Crushing blacks and clipping whites can occur when
the monitor’s VIDEO LEVEL is set to EXPAND while
the source video signal’s color levels are RGB Full
(RGB 0-255), causing lost details in the shadows
and highlights and the image appears overly high in
contrast.

– Blacks are dark grey and whites are dull -

change the VIDEO LEVEL to EXPAND.
Dulling blacks and whites can occur when the VIDEO
LEVEL is set to RAW while the source video signal’s
color levels are RGB Limited (RGB 16-235), which
effectively appears to prevent the monitor from
obtaining its full brightness range and the image
appears to be lacking in contrast.

Either light vertical or horizontal stripes may appear, depending on the specific image pattern. This is not a product fault or degradation.

Image Persistence

Please be aware that LCD Technology may experience a phenomenon known as Image Persistence. Image Persistence occurs
when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD panel 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’s main power or set it to standby 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’s main power
should be turned off or set it to standby for one hour to erase the image.

As with all personal display devices, NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS recommends displaying moving images and using a moving
screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is idle, or turn off the monitor’s main power or set it to standby when not in
use.

Please set [SCREEN SAVER], [DATE &TIME] and [SCHEDULE SETTINGS] functions to further reduce the risk of Image
persistence.

For long life use as a Public Display

Image Sticking of LCD Panel

When an LCD panel is operated continuously for long hours, a trace of electric charge remains near the electrode inside the
LCD and a residual or “ghost” image of the previous image may be observed. (Image Persistence)

Image Persistence is not permanent, but when a fixed image is displayed for long period, ionic impurities inside the LCD are
accumulated along the displayed image and may be permanent. (Image Sticking)

Recommendations

To prevent Image Sticking, and for longer life usage of the monitor, the following is recommended.

• Fixed image should not be reproduced for long period. Change still images after short intervals.

• When not in use, please turn off the monitor via remote control, or use the Power Management function of the PC, or use the
built-in Schedule Functions.

• Lower environmental temperatures prolong the lifespan of the monitor.

When a protective surface (glass, acrylic) is installed over the monitor’s screen surface, the monitor’s screen surface is
located in an enclosure, utilize the temperature sensors inside the monitor.

To reduce the internal temperature, use the Cooling Fans, Screen Saver, the Power Management function of the PC and
Low Brightness.

• Please use “Screen Saver Mode” of monitor.
