Product Features
Standard delivery
The product is normally delivered in 2 main parts, which, when mounted together, form a normal
monitor for desktop use.
• a LCD panel with TFT picture element which also contains the lamps for the backlight along
with necessary electronics and cable connectors as well as power connector. These parts are
mounted inside a plastic housing.
• a base unit (stand) to be mounted at the VESA holes at the back of the panel.
For certain applications, when the monitor is to be placed on a wall or built into a desk, then only
the LCD panel part is delivered. In these cases it is quite often delivered with the plastic housing
removed in what is called “open frame”. Certain other options or special mounting components
might have been pre-installed.
When the monitor has been delivered as open frame there is a greater risk to come
in contact with electric parts which could cause harm to yourself or your property. It
should therefore only be handled with special precaution and only by properly trained
service personnel.
Power management
This unit has power management system. The monitor will go into “sleep mode”, where power
consumption is less than 5W, whenever either horizontal or vertical signals or both disappear.
High performance panel element
The color LCD panel used in this product is specically designed for advanced applications such
as viewing digital X-ray images. ALS (Automatic Luminance Stabilization) circuits gives a stable
picture for the life of the product. ALC (Automatic Luminance Control) circuits will automatically
adjust for the decay of the backlight lamps.
Front sensor for calibration and quality assurance
The monitor is equipped with a front sensor used for stabilizing the calibrated luminance. It is also
used for un-attended calibration and quality checks. The monitor is bundled with PerfectLum™
calibration and quality assurance software.
Preloaded DICOM curve
The monitor has a preloaded Barten DICOM curve for use as a plug-n-play X-ray review display.
Ergonomic features
To ease eyestrain on the user, the panel features excellent viewing angles. In addition, the base

Cleaning of the Product
Be careful when cleaning the plastic housing of the panel so that no liquid or other
objects will drip down into the product through the ventilation holes. This could cause
electric shock and damage the product.
Normal dust and lint particles can be easily wiped off with a soft cloth tissue.
For grease or dirt that is more rmly xed to the product, the use of a soft and dry micro ber
based cloth tissue will normally remove it all.
You can also use a mild liquid detergent mixed with water for cleaning together with a soft cloth
tissue. This will clean both the cabinet and the LCD panel well. For the LCD panel you can also
use isopropyl alcohol based liquids (without abrasive) or non-ammoniac glass cleaner.
When cleaning the LCD panel you will get the best result if you clean the panel when its surface
has cooled down to normal room temperature. On a warm panel the liquid evaporates too quickly
leaving traces of the cleaning. Afterwards wipe the surface dry with another soft cloth tissue.
When cleaning the cabinet do NOT use thinner, benzene or alcohol as these might
damage the plastic and cause the paint to peel off. Do NOT use organic solvent such
as acetone and toluene when cleaning the panel.
If you use any liquid for cleaning you must rst un-plug the power to the monitor and
not connect it again until you are certain that all the liquid particles have evaporated.
Failure to do so could result in electric shock.
Do not use any tools with hard or sharp material for cleaning. The panel can very
easily be scratched or damaged from such tools.
Do not press hard on the panel when cleaning. This could cause damage to the LCD
panel element.

PerfectLum is software to calibrate and verify medical displays that are used for Diagnostics or
viewing of medical images. It is developed in a cooperation between Qubyx Ltd (www.qubyx.com)
and Olorin AB.
PerfectLum conforms to all common standards for DICOM calibration; this includes NEMA DICOM
14 GSDF, AAPM TG18, DIN6868-57, JESRA X-0093 and IEC-62563-1. PerfectLum can also be
used to perform conformance tests for quality assurance against the current standard.
Internal LUT
Olorin monitors with front sensor can be calibrated with PerfectLum software and have the values
saved in its internal LUT (Look-up Table). Since this LUT is based on 10-bit graphic (1024 levels
of grey), the image presented is very smooth when compared to 8-bit graphic (256 levels of grey).
Reports and diagnostics
PerfectLum saves all history for calibrations and quality assurance tests. The history is visualized
in graphs and can be exported to printable reports. The software has a backup function that
makes sure everything can be stored safely.
PerfectLum Remote Management Server
Remote Management Server is an optional feature to PerfectLum. Remote Management enables
the user to centralize and schedule all of their calibration tasks and quality assurance tests over
a web interface. This means that Olorin monitors with internal LUT and front sensor do not need
local assistance, instead everything can be controlled automatically via a remote computer.
System compatibility
PerfectLum is compatible with all major graphics card and external sensor (used for controlled
measurements) manufacturers. This means that an upgrade of existing hardware is often
unnecessary. PerfectLum supports all the latest versions of Windows and Macintosh operating
systems: Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2000 32/64 and Macintosh OS X 10.4 and up.

Special Considerations for LCD Panels
Manufacturing of LCD panels is very delicate with large panel elements being manufactured in
one unit and then cut to smaller sizes to be used in different products. In addition a panel consists
of several layers of components (back-light lamps, diffusers, electronics and color lters). There
are different technologies used with each having its advantages and disadvantages resulting in
end user products with different specications even when taken from the same manufacturing
batch. Below are explanations to some observations that can be made and which are not
considered defects since they are merely problems inherent in the technology of LCD monitors.
Over time, the performance of the panel will also change.
Native resolution
All panels have a xed number of pixels in
both horizontal and vertical directions. For
instance is a 19” panel normally built with
1280 pixels horizontal and 1024 vertical giving
a native resolution of 1280x1024. At this
resolution you will get the sharpest picture and
it is therefore recommended that you use the
native resolution. Thru scaling technologies it is
possible to use other resolutions but the picture
will be less sharp. Some text will appear to
have shadows.
Native color temperature
Most commonly LCD panels are manufactured
to have a color temperature of 6500K (Kelvin
degrees) for full white picture. The color
temperature can vary with shade of grey being
showed. For instance it could be 7500K at
50% grey and more than 9000 at 90% grey.
For an individual panel the color temperature
at full white can also vary by +/- 15%. Inside
the panel there is a color lter and over time
this will age and become more yellow in its
color tone. Therefore, over time, the color
temperature will gradually go lower so that at
full white it could come down to 5000K.
Typical values
In product specications there are values for
brightness, contrast, view angles etc. The
values are given as “typical values” meaning
that actual value for any given product can vary
by up to 20% from this value. For instance,
a product specied to give 300 candela as
typical maximum value for brightness may
for individual samples vary from 240 candela
to 360 candela. The values specied are for
a new product. Due to wear of the backlight
lamps the values will change over time and
gradually become lower.
Uniformity and Mura patterns
Depending on the placement of the backlight
lamps, how many they are and the size of
the panel the brightness over the entire panel
will vary by up to 20%. Generally the highest
brightness is in the centre of the panel and
becoming gradually lower towards the outer
edges. This does not follow a linear curve
and there might also be “areas” on the screen
where there is a noticeable difference in the
uniformity. Such clouded areas are referred
to as “Mura” and are more related to the
panel itself than to the backlight. These Mura
patterns are different in size and shape and are
color and grayscale dependent since they are
a result from deterioration of the liquid crystal
alignment layer. Mura is most commonly
caused by long term operation under high
ambient temperature and is a phenomenon
that cannot be repaired.
Non-performing pixels
Each pixel on the panel actually consists of 3
sub-pixels (one for each of Red, Green and
Blue). A 19” panel with 1280x1024 therefore
has almost 4 million sub-pixels. It can happen
that a pixel can get stuck in ON status (bright
pixel defect) or in OFF status (dead pixel
defect) or in an in-between status (low bright
pixel defect). Usually such defects only affect
a sub-pixel and not an entire pixel. The defect
can therefore only be seen at certain color
settings. The ISO 13406-2 standard species
how many pixel defects that are acceptable
before an entire panel will be considered faulty.

Olorin products are warranted to follow this
standard as a Class II product.
Image sticking
If the same image is shown for a long period of
time there is a risk for “image sticking”. This is
a result of that the thin lm transistors will get
stuck in a certain position and continue to show
that image even when a new image is sent to
the panel. The image will disappear if you put
a full white picture on the monitor for several
hours. The best solution is to have a screen
saver that moves around on the screen so that
no static image is constantly shown.
Slow operating in cold environments
The thin lm transistors contain some liquid
that will cause them to operate slowly in cold
temperatures. When temperature inside
the panel has increased to normal room
temperature, the speed will be up to normal
again.
Cable length and input signal
When using long cables from the video source
(PC, camera etc) to the monitor the signal
level will be lower and cause distortions in the
picture shown. A low quality graphic board
could also cause such problems. Always use
high quality graphic boards and signal cables.

The components that have biggest inuence
on the useful life of the product are the
backlight lamps. These are made of CCFL
(Cold-cathode Fluorescent Lamp). Over time
these will decay and give less and less light.
They generally have a spedication of 40,000
hours before they are worn out. If they are
constantly on one year of use corresponds to
just over 8,000 hours and thus a life of 5 years.
There are ways to improve the useful life.
The most radical and efcient way is to always
switch the monitor off when not used.
The second best is to use the Power Save
feature within the PC´s DPMA system. This
will not switch off the monitor entirely but the
backlight lamps will be switched off which is
the important thing. When you start to use
the keyboard or mouse, the monitor will be
switched on within a couple of seconds.
PLEASE, NOTE THAT A SCREENSAVER
WILL NOT SWITCH OFF THE BACKLIGHT
LAMPS AND THUS IS NOT A SOLUTION
FOR LONGER LIFE.
The higher the luminance is set on the
monitor the greater is the wear of the backlight
lamps. All monitors have the facility to adjust
brightness. Never set this at maximum since
this will cause the lamps to decay faster. A
setting at 50% will be sufcient for use in ofce
environment.
Gradual change of color
As the backlight lamps ages they will show
a warmer color temperature which can be
perceived as more yellow for white color than it
was initially when the monitor was new. There
are color lters in the panel which also will age
and add to the yellowish color tone.
You can usually from the monitors OSD set
your own color and by setting the value for blue
higher than red and green will change the color
temperature back to more normal. However,
the blue color lter has lower translucence so
the consequence is that you will get a lower
brightness.
Longer life for your monitor

Start your trouble shooting with the following actions
Possible power problem
• Make sure power is connected. If you switch the monitor off and then back on, the diode on
the front should show green light. Some models have a main power switch next to the power
inlet check that this is set to on. If you have a model without power adapter and still the no
green light it’s not a power problem.
• If not, check your power connection to the 12V/24V adapter and to the wall. There is a
similar diode on the 12V/24V adapter that should show green light.
• If not, the adapter might be broken. If you have another adapter of the same type you
can verify by using that adapter.
• If yes, there is a problem with the panel which should be repaired
• If yes, then it is not a power problem
Possible signal problem
• If picture is not stable or not shown at all or you get “No Sync” then check connection of the
signal cable and graphic board settings.
• If cable connections and graphic board settings are OK, then try the following
• Switch monitor off. Wait 10 seconds and switch it back on
• Re-boot the PC
• Test monitor by connecting it to another PC
• If nothing of this helps, then there is something wrong with the monitor and it should be
repaired. Contact your local reseller for assistance.
