Providing visual display solutions to a wide variety of
users for many years, NEC LCD monitors have set the
standard for flat-panel technology and continue to
offer new ways to enhance visual experiences. Our
visual solutions provide users with a diverse range
of options to help them see their digital world more
clearly and support them in achieving their goals.
Building on this tradition of quality and innovation,
NEC’s new 30" (29.5" viewable image size) LCD3000
features the latest in advanced LCD technologies
and creates a new option for those in the informa-
tion display market. As one of the largest screen
size LCD displays commercially available, this model
carries with it all of the benefits users have come
to value in NEC’s smaller-sized LCD displays. These
benefits now can be enjoyed in a variety of infor-
mation display applications, including conference
rooms, public information kiosks, retail signage,
financial exchanges, airports and trade show
exhibits. The LCD3000’s screen performance brings
ideas to life, capturing the attention and imagina-
tion of viewers and ensuring that messages reach
audiences with maximum clarity and impact.
Sized to please. Filling the gap between flat
panels designed for the desktop and those
intended for larger venues, this monitor offers
the information display market another option
for a variety of visual display needs. It also fills
the void left by larger-sized CRT monitors, which
are no longer widely available.
Superior screen performance. The LCD3000 takes
advantage of the many display technologies that
have made LCD monitors so popular over the years
and delivers them through an expansive screen fea-
turing a wide aspect ratio. The monitor’s 1280 x 768
(WXGA) resolution optimizes on-screen text, images
and video with remarkable precision and clarity,
allowing onlookers to clearly view presentations,
charts, advertisements, pricing and other public
display information. Further,these applications can
be viewed simultaneously utilizing the display's
picture-in-picture capability when using the defined
combination of video inputs (see User’s Manual).
With some screen technologies, leaving the
display on for a long period of time would perma-
nently burn the image into the screen. As can
be noted with phosphor-based public displays,
the image would remain permanently “engraved”
into the display, rendering it useless. Since this
display does not use phosphors in its construc-
tion, the potential for permanent burn-in is
significantly decreased, thereby contributing
to optimal screen performance and a longer
life for the monitor.
In applications where spectators are situated
at various angles in front of the screen or where
they are passing by the display, the LCD3000
provides an undistorted view of the screen.
Using XtraView wide-angle viewing technology,
this monitor provides flexible 170° horizontal
and vertical viewing angles (85° up, down, left and
right) with less glare, reflection and distortion.

With a brightness of 450 cd/m
, this display
stands out in the crowd, allowing onlookers to
view text and graphics with ease and comfort.
A 350:1 typical contrast ratio helps the monitor
deliver amazingly vivid colors and supports
The LCD3000 features a number of input connections for maximum compatibility. This makes it possible to upgrade adapters or software without having to purchase a new display.

superior grayscaling. Further, its Rapid Response
time of 25ms allows it to display undistorted
full-motion video, while virtually eliminating
ghosting or image trailing.
Take control of your monitor. In an effort to
make remote control and diagnostics easier,
the LCD3000 provides two different methods to
manipulate the display—an RS-232 connector
and the advanced remote diagnostics and remote
control capabilities of the Display Data Channel/
Command Interface (DDC/CI). By utilizing the
inherent power of the PC (a typical source for the
display), DDC/CI allows control commands to be
sent directly to the monitor through a standard
PC system or remotely over an existing network
(LAN) by a system administrator. A wide range of
DDC/CI-based graphics cards, which will become
standard in the near future, allow for this easy
control through a Windows 2000/XP interface.
Achieve consistent, long-distance signals. Users
can now realize the advantages of long monitor
cable lengths without the difficulties and costs
normally associated with this type of configura-
tion. In environments such as trading floors, call
centers and public signage venues, longer cables
enable systems to be centrally located in control
rooms far away from users (up to 326 feet/100
meters), allowing monitor upgrades, service and
repairs to be accomplished without interrupting
the work or display environment.
Historically, longer monitor cable configurations
tended to have limitations, including weakened
signals, which resulted in blurred images.
Inconsistent red, green and blue cable lengths
were also common. This produced uneven signals,
thereby drastically reducing display quality.
The display’s CableComp technology solves
these dilemmas by using a digitized signal delay
circuit to automatically compensate for each
red, green and blue cable’s length and video
signal delay, ensuring sharp image reproduction.
CableComp also boosts the VGA video signal to
prevent blurred images without the need for
costly repeaters.
Get connected. The LCD3000 features a number
of input connections for maximum compatibility
(see Figure 1). These include a DVI-D connector
for digital video signal adapters and a traditional
15-pin mini D-sub connector that is configured
®
for IBM
BNC VGA, composite video, component video
and S-Video connectors. This wide compatibility
makes it possible to upgrade adapters or soft-
ware without having to purchase a new monitor.
By accepting analog signal inputs, this monitor
can display more than 16 million colors, depending
on the graphics card and software being used.
User-friendly, efficient design. As ease of
installation is a main concern for the information
display market, the LCD3000 was designed with
light weight in mind. At only 35.2 lbs, this monitor
is simple to transport and install wherever
necessary. In addition, with the introduction of
this display, NEC is on the forefront of mounting
technology as the monitor’s cabinet was designed
to meet currently proposed VESA mounting
standards for larger-sized public displays, which
VGA-compatible adapters, as well as
Multiple application solutions
And you thought LCD monitors were used only on
desktops. With space conservation a major concern
for all types of markets in today’s business world,
the LCD3000’s space-conscious design allows it
to fit comfortably into almost any application for
maximum impact to viewers. Wall mounting, custom-
made cabinets and hanging fixtures are just a few
of the options you have when choosing your display
installation for this 30" (29.5" VIS) LCD monitor.

an expanded display mode with monitor informa-
tion such as brightness, contrast and color set-
tings. However, for quick and easy setups, a mul-
titude of presets makes this monitor ready to go
right out of the box.
Intelligent power management ensures a smart investment. Utilizing energy-efficient technologies
in its design, the LCD3000 reduces power consump-
tion and significantly lowers the total cost of
ownership (TCO). The high-efficiency backlight
reduces not only the power consumption but also
the heat generation at the front of the screen.
Financial. In the fast-paced financial market, information needs to be relayed in real time. The LCD3000 is capable not only of displaying on-the-fly market data and other vital information without distortion, but does so using crisp text and a high-bright backlight for easier readability.
