A-NTAA SW	The Advanced No Touch Auto Adjust function is able to
(Analog input only)	recognize new signals even when neither the resolution nor the
	refresh rate has changed. If several PCs are connected to the
	monitor, and each transmit very similar (or even the same) sig-
	nals in terms of resolution and refresh rates, the monitor recog-
	nizes that there is a new signal and automatically optimizes the
	picture without the need for any action on the part of the user.
	OFF: A-NTAA is disabled.
	ON: If a change in signal is detected A-NTAA will adjust the
	monitor to the optimal settings for the new signal. If no change
	in the signal is detected then A-NTAA does not activate. The
	screen will be blank while the monitor optimizes the signal.
	OPTION: Functions the same as ON, except that the screen
	does not go blank when the monitor makes adjustments for
	changes in signal, allowing the monitor to display the new sig-
	nal faster. When using an external switching device to connect
	2 or more PCs to the monitor,using either the ON or OPTION
	setting is suitable.

Using the Auto Brightness function

The brightness of the LCD screen can be set to increase or decrease depending on the amount of ambient light within the room. If the room is bright, the monitor becomes correspondingly bright. If the room is dim, then the monitor will dim accordingly. The purpose of this function is to make the viewing experience more comfortable to the eye in a variety of lighting conditions.

NOTE: The Auto Brightness function is set to OFF by default.

When “AUTO LUMINANCE” is ON, this function is disabled.

SETUP

Use the following procedure to determine the Brightness Range that the monitor will use when the Auto Brightness function is activated.

1.Set the BRIGHT level. This is the brightness level that the monitor will go up to when the ambient light level is highest. Make sure the room is at its brightest when setting this level.

Select “1” in the AUTO BRIGHTNESS menu (Figure 1).

Then use the front buttons to move the cursor up to the BRIGHTNESS setting. Choose the desired brightness level (Figure 2).

2.Set the DARK level. This is the level of brightness that the monitor will go down to when the ambient light level is low. Make sure the room is at its darkest when setting this level.

Then use the front buttons to move the cursor up to the BRIGHTNESS setting. Choose the desired brightness level (Figure 3).

• 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 lamps in this product contain mercury. Please dispose according to state, local or federal law.

•Do not bend power cord.

		supply. The monitor should be installed close to a power outlet which is easily accessible.
	•	Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for transporting.

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 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.	30

Recommended Use – continued

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 antiglare 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.

Recommended Use – continued

Ergonomics

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

*1 Interpolated Resolutions: When resolutions are shown that are lower than the pixel count of the LCD module, text may appear different. This is 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.

Features

Ambix3™ Technology: Triple input technology allowing up to 3 input sources to be connected to a single monitor. The DVI-I connector supports both analog and digital input signals. Legacy analog input is supported using a traditional 15-pin VGA connector. Ambix3 provides traditional MultiSync® technology compatibility for analog as well as DVI-based digital compatibility for digital inputs. DVI-based digital interfaces include DVI-D, DFP and P&D.

DVI-I: The integrated interface ratiﬁed by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) that allows both digital and analog connectors off of one port. The “I” stands for integration for both digital and analog, The digital portion is DVI-based.

DVI-D: The digital-only subset of DVI ratiﬁed by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) for digital connections between computers and displays. As a digital-only connector, analog support is not provided off a DVI-D connector. As a DVI-based digital only connection, only a simple adapter is necessary for compatibility between DVI-D and other DVI-based digital connectors such as DFP and P&D.

DFP (Digital Flat Panel): An all-digital interface for ﬂat panel monitors which is signal compatible with DVI. As a DVI-based digital only connection, only a simple adapter is necessary for compatibility between DFP and other DVI-based digital connectors such as DVI and P&D.

P&D (Plug and Display): The VESA standard for digital ﬂat panel monitor interfaces. It is more robust than DFP since it allows for other options off a signal connector (options like USB, analog video and IEEE-1394-995). The VESA committee has recognized that DFP is a subset of P&D. As a DVI-based connector (for the digital input pins), only a simple adapter is necessary for compatibility between P&D and other DVI-based digital connector such as DVI and DFP.

Pivoting Stand: Allows users to adjust the monitor to the orientation that best ﬁts their application, either Landscape orientation for wide documents, or Portrait orientation for the ability to preview a full page on one screen at one time. The Portrait orientation is also perfect for full screen video conferencing.

Reduced Footprint: Provides the ideal solution for environments requiring superior image quality but with size and weight limitations. The monitor’s small footprint and low weight allow it to be moved or transported easily from one location to another.

AccuColor® Control System: Allows the user to adjust the colors on the screen and customize the color accuracy of the monitor to a variety of color standards.

OSM® (On-Screen Manager) Controls: Allow you to quickly and easily adjust all elements of your screen image via simple to use on-screen menus.

ErgoDesign® Features: Enhanced human ergonomics to improve the working environment, protect the health of the user and save money. Examples include OSM controls for quick and easy image adjustments, tilt base for preferred angle of vision, small footprint and compliance with MPRII and TCO guidelines for lower emissions.

Plug and Play: The Microsoft® solution with the Windows® operating system facilitates setup and installation by allowing the monitor to send its capabilities (such as screen size and resolutions supported) directly to your computer, automatically optimizing display performance.

Features – continued

IPM® (Intelligent Power Manager) System: Provides innovative power-saving methods that allow the monitor to lower the power consumption level when on but not in use, saving two-thirds of your monitor energy costs, reducing emissions and lowering the air conditioning costs of the workplace.

Multiple Frequency Technology: Automatically adjusts monitor to the display card’s scanning frequency, thus displaying the resolution required.

FullScan® Capability: Allows you to use the entire screen area in most resolutions, signiﬁcantly expanding image size.

XtraView+™ Wide Viewing Angle Technology: Allows the display image to be seen at wide viewing angles. Close to 180 degrees off center axis, for both up-down and left-right viewing angles. XtraView+ is active in either portrait or landscape orientations. Please see the Speciﬁcations page for exact viewing angle of each monitor.

VESA Standard Mounting Interface: Allows users to connect their MultiSync monitor to any VESA standard third party mounting arm or bracket. Allows for the monitor to be mounted on a wall or an arm using any third party compliant device.

Ultra-thin-frame design: Allows you to view more of your ideas and less of the monitor bezel, while freeing up more horizontal and vertical desktop space for multiple-monitor applications.

NaViSet™ software: Offers an expanded and intuitive graphical interface, allowing you to more easily adjust OSM display settings via mouse and keyboard.

CableComp™: Automatic long cable compensation prevents image quality degradation caused by long cable lengths.

Advanced No Touch Auto Adjust: When a new input source is detected. The monitor then optimizes picture settings without the need for extra adjustment on the part of the user.

Rapid Response™: Delivers virtually uninterrupted, undistorted viewing of full-motion video applications.

sRGB Color Control: A new optimized color management standard which allows for color matching on computer displays and other peripherals. The sRGB, which is based on the calibrated color space, allows for optimal color representation and backward compatibility with other common color standards.

ColorComp: This feature compensates for slight variations in the white uniformity level that may occur on the screen and improves the color and evens out the luminance uniformity of the display.

Over Drive: Improves gray to gray response time.

Adjustable stand with pivot capability: Adds ﬂexibility to your viewing preferences. Quick Release stand: Allows fast removal of the stand.

AmbiBright™ technology: Automatically adjusts the backlight level depending on the level of ambient lighting.

91% of the NTSC RGB Color Gamut: Means more vibrant and accurate colors.

12-bit gamma/12-bit LUT: Allows precise control over the display’s Tone Response Curve without reducing the number of displayable colors.

Auto Image Rotation: allows the screen image to switch between portrait and landscape mode automatically, depending on the orientation of the monitor. No additional software is required.

Troubleshooting

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 Vacation Switch should be in the ON position.

•Front Power Switch and computer power switch should be in the ON position.

•Check to make sure that a supported mode has been selected on the display card or system being used. (Consult display card or system manual to change graphics mode.)

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

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

•Check the signal input, “DVI-D”, “DVI-I”, or “D-Sub”.

•Ensure the DVI input mode is set to DIGITAL when the MAC digital output is connected to the DVI-I connector.

•If the front LED is blinking amber, check the status of the IPM mode (see page 13).

•When using a DVD player or any other type of high-deﬁnition device, please do not use interlaced signals. If the monitor detects an interlaced signal, an OSM warning will appear. If this OSM warning appears, please do the following: press the RESET and EXIT buttons simultaneously, to temporarily show the image coming from the high-deﬁnition device. While the image is visible, change the signal of the device from interlaced to progressive (non-interlaced). Consult the User's Manual included with the device for detailed information on changing the signal from interlaced to progressive.

Power Button does not respond

•Unplug the power cord of the monitor from the AC outlet to turn off and reset the monitor.

•Check the Vacation Switch on the left side of the monitor.

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 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.

Message “OUT OF RANGE” is displayed (screen is either blank or shows rough images only)

•Image is displayed only roughly (pixels are missing) and OSM warning “OUT OF RANGE” is displayed: Either signal clock or resolution is too high. Choose one of the supported modes.

•OSM warning “OUT OF RANGE” is displayed on a blank screen: Signal frequency is out of range. Choose one of the supported modes.

Image is unstable, unfocused or swimming is apparent

•Signal cable should be completely attached to the computer.

•Use the OSM Image Adjust controls to focus and adjust display by increasing or decreasing the ﬁne total. When the display mode is changed, the OSM Image Adjust settings may need to be readjusted.

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

•If your text is garbled, change the video mode to non-interlace and use 60Hz refresh rate.

LED on monitor is not lit (no green, blue, or amber color can be seen)

•Power Switch should be in the ON position and power cord should be connected.

Picture is not as bright

•Make sure the ECO MODE, AUTO BRIGHTNESS, and COLORCOMP functions are turned off.

•If the brightness ﬂuctuates, make sure that the AUTO BRIGHTNESS function is turned off.

Display image is not sized properly

•Use the OSM Image Adjust controls to increase or decrease the Coarse total.

•Check to make sure that a supported mode has been selected on the display card or system being used. (Consult display card or system manual to change graphics mode.)

No Video

•If no video is present on the screen, turn the Power button off and on again.

•Make certain the computer is not in a power-saving mode (touch the keyboard or mouse).

Self Diagnosis

•The LCD display is equipped with the ability to self diagnose abnormalities. When the LCD detects a problem, the LED on the front ﬂashes in a pattern of long and short blinks, depending on the type of problem detected.

If the LED detects a problem, please refer service to qualiﬁed personnel.
