Image Persistence: Image persistence exists, when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the
screen. Unlike with CRT monitors, image persistence on LCD monitors 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 DISPLAY SOLUTIONS recommends using a moving screen saver at regular
intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use.
Maintenance: This display is factory calibrated for diagnostic imaging, in accordance with DICOM Part 14. To ensure constant
visual quality over the life of the display, the recommended time interval to re-calibrate these models is 12 months.
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 during normal operation, allow 20 minutes for the display
to warm up. For re-calibration and DICOM conformance tests, please allow at least
60 minutes to achieve best results.
• 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 40 cm (15.75 inches) and no further away than
70 cm (27.56 inches) from your eyes. The optimal distance is 50 cm (19.69 inches).
• Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an object at least 6 m (20 feet) away.
Blink often.
• Position the monitor at a 90° angle to windows and other light sources to minimize glare
and refl ections. Adjust the monitor tilt so that ceiling lights do not refl ect on your 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.
• Avoid displaying fi xed patterns on the monitor for long periods of time to avoid image persistence (after-image effects).
• Get regular eye checkups.
Cleaning the LCD Panel
• When the LCD is dusty, please gently wipe with a soft cloth.
• Please do not rub the LCD panel with hard or coarse material.
• Please do not apply pressure to the LCD surface.
• Please do not use OA cleaner as it will cause deterioration or discoloration on the LCD surface.
Cleaning the Cabinet
• Unplug the power supply cord from the wall outlet.
• Gently wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth.
• To clean the cabinet, dampen the cloth with a neutral detergent and water, wipe the cabinet and follow with a dry cloth.

Performing the DICOM conformance test
This function is available only when the display has been calibrated to DICOM GSDF.
Performing a DICOM conformance test ensures DICOM conformance of the display by measuring and checking the display
properties.
The DICOM conformance test is recommended to be performed after 60 minutes of continuous active backlight time of the LCD
panel. If the test is performed within less than 60 minutes of active backlight time, the reported DICOM GDSF error value may
be larger because the luminance was not yet stable enough.
HINT: If the power management setting of the computer is set to less than 60 minutes, either change the computer’s power
management setting only for this test or try “OSD operation without signal input from computer” on page 21.
DICOM conformance test procedure:
1. Checking the gamma setting
The (+) / (-) buttons are located in the back side of the display. Press either button twice, and the “PRESENT STATE” OSD
main menu appears.
Make sure that GAMMA is set to “DICOM GSDF”.

Failed: Max. deviation (GSDF error) > 10%, does not comply with AAPM TG18 guidelines for primary displays.
Canceled: Test has been canceled.
Passed(!), Failed(!)
When “Passed” or “Failed” is followed by “(!)”, the test has not been performed under the recommended condition
(minimum 60 minutes of active backlight time) or the luminance is unstable.
B. Maximum deviation
The test results are saved until the next test or calibration.
If the maximum deviation (GSDF error) result does not conform to the AAPM TG18 guidelines, even though the test has been
performed under the recommended conditions, calibrate the display using an external calibration sensor, i.e. the NEC model
MDSVSENSOR3. During calibration with an external sensor, the front sensor of the display will be re-adjusted as well.
Without the OSD operation for over 15 seconds, the OSD menu disappears automatically.

OSD operation without signal input from computer
Without a signal input from the computer, normally a display goes into energy saving mode and cannot show the OSD menu.
MD212G3 and MD211G5 can exit the energy saving mode temporarily and show the OSD menu in the normal operation mode.
Therefore it is possible to change settings in the OSD or perform a DICOM conformance test without changing the computer’s
power management settings.
Follow the procedures below to show the OSD menus.
1. Confi rm that the display is in the energy saving mode and the LED next to the power switch is lit orange. If the LED is off,
please push the power switch to turn on the monitor.
2. Hold down the (+) plus button and the (-) minus button simultaneously for over 2 seconds.
The “INFORMATION” OSD main menu opens on the screen. The LED color changes from orange to green.
3. Switch EDID, input source, confi guration or DICOM conformance test, referring to this manual.

4. If the display enters the energy saving mode during this operation, please start from the beginning again.
NOTE: The display being turned on to the normal operation mode by the operation as described above is only temporary.
This mode is left after any of the following conditions are met:
1. 3 hours have passed.
2. The display power has been turned off.
3. A DICOM conformance test has been performed.
