NEC Display Solutions

Helping you work smarter with

intelligent

display technologies.

With each new generation of LCD monitors,
NEC Display Solutions finds new ways to build
upon its tradition of incorporating intelligent
technologies, ergonomic designs and value-add
services. These are the advantages that allow users
to work smarter and enterprises to reduce total cost
of ownership. With the NEC MultiSync 70 Series, a
family of high-performance flat-panel monitors, the
tradition continues with displays that showcase
bright screens, low power consumption and enhanced
features that deliver tremendous quality and value to
your desktop. The end result for you is increased
comfort, reduced costs and maximized productivity
on a daily basis.

The series, which currently features eight LCD
models in 15" to 21" screen sizes and the choice
of a silver and white or all black cabinet, offers
performance-driven business and home users
flexible, reliable monitor solutions that meet
virtually any need.

Screen-enhancing features. The MultiSync 70 Series
incorporates many components aimed at making
the user’s time in front of the monitor more
productive and comfortable. NEC’s Rapid Response™
technology, available on all MultiSync 70 Series
models, provides for lifelike full-motion video display
with response times of 25ms or less. Rapid Response
delivers streaming video, while virtually eliminating
ghosting or blurring, and achieving as many as
125 frames per second (fps). This remarkably quick
motion makes these models better than ever for
gaming and video applications such as presentations
and streaming web video. No Touch Auto Adjust™
eliminates the hassle of adjusting screen controls
when first connecting to a new system. When turning
on these monitors for the first time, the monitor
and video card communicate to automatically adjust
screen settings for optimal viewing. The LCD1970VX,
LCD1970NX, LCD2070NX and LCD2170NX also utilize
Dynamic Video Mode to enhance the screen’s
contrast based on the brightness of the image
displayed.

Wide compatibility for today and tomorrow.
With Ambix® dual-input technology—which utilizes

both DVI-D and traditional 15-pin VGA connectors—
you can bridge the gap between analog and digital
systems by allowing the same monitor to work
seamlessly in either environment. Ambix provides
compatibility with today’s computer systems and
is on the forefront of tomorrow’s digital output.
Digital technology allows for connection with any
signal in a preset range, regardless of the frequency
output of the video card. Also, because no digital-to­analog conversion is necessary, signal loss is virtually
eliminated, resulting in superior picture quality. A
standard in the industry for many years, the easy­to-recognize VGA connector ensures hassle-free
equipment swaps during technology upgrades.

Take your control a step further. Our exclusive
NaViSet™ software (available by download) offers
an intuitive graphical user interface that allows
the user to adjust On Screen Manager (OSM®)
display settings via mouse and keyboard instead of
using the monitor’s up-front buttons. This second
generation software provides animated graphics and
test patterns to help guide the user through
adjustments for the MultiSync 70 Series. For
an unprecedented level of control, NaViSet
Administrator software for IT professionals (available

upon request) contains Windows® Management
Instrumentation™ (WMI) for remote control and
diagnostics maintenance for all installed,
compatible MultiSync 70 Series units. This
software provides IT personnel remote access
to the monitor and its settings without disrupting
the user. All of these control capabilities are
made possible using the advanced remote
diagnostics and remote control capabilities of
the Display Data Channel/Command Interface
(DDC/CI). This allows control commands to be sent
directly to the monitor by the local system or
remotely over an existing network (LAN) by a
system administrator. In order to take full
advantage of these benefits, users must employ a

DDC/CI-compatible graphics card and be running
Windows 2000/XP.

As part of the redesigned control button
arrangement, users can also take advantage of the
multi-directional NaViKey™ on the bottom

of the monitor bezel to adjust screen settings. This
key, which has not only allowed for a thinner frame
around the screen but has helped reduce the number
of control buttons required, provides an easier means
of reaching your preferred display settings.

Bright ideas in design. MultiSync 70 Series
monitors, which feature slim footprints and thin,
uniform frames, have been designed for easy, flexible
integration into a variety of surroundings, including
cramped areas and ergonomically challenged work
spaces. This user-friendly design enables you to
focus more on what is on-screen, enhancing not only
your visual experience but your overall productivity.
The thin-frame design makes these models ideal
for multiple-monitor configurations, which further
enhance user productivity. The built-in power supply
eliminates the need for a bulky power brick and
the cables it requires, which can clutter your work
space. An ergonomically enhanced base allows for
up to 110mm of height adjustment and features
capabilities for cable management, tilting and
swiveling, easily adjusting to each user’s preferred
angle of vision and further increasing comfort,
productivity and ease of use. Users also can choose
between silver and white or all black cabinets,
allowing them to match their display to systems,
laptops or work environments. (LCD2170NX available
only in black)
