The image on a moni tor is composed of red, green and blue dots . The closer t he dots, the hi gher the res olution.
The distance between two dots of the same color is called the 'Dot Pitch'. Unit: mm
•
Vertical Frequency
The screen must be redrawn s everal times pe r second in orde r to create an d display an image for the user. Th e
frequency of this repetition per second is called Vertical Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit: Hz
Example: If the same light repea ts itself 60 times per secon d, this is regarded as 60 Hz. In th is case, flickering
of the screen can be detected. To avoid this problem, there is a Flicker-free Mode using a vertical frequency
over 70 Hz.
•
Horizontal Frequency
The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the left edge of the screen horizontally is called
Horizontal Cycle. The inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called Horizontal Frequency. Unit: kHz
•
Interlace and Non-Interlace Methods
Showing the horizontal lines of the screen from the top to the bottom in order is called the Non-Interlace
method while showing odd lines and then even line s in tur n is called the Int erlace met hod. The Non- Interla ce
method is used for the majo rity of monitor s to ensure a c lear i mage. The Interlac e method is the same as tha t

•
Resolution
The number of horizontal and vertical dots used to compose the screen image is called 'resolution'. This
number shows the accuracy of the display. High resolution is good for performing multiple tasks as more
image information can be shown on the screen.
Example: If the resolution is 1024 X 768, this means the screen is composed of 1024 horizontal
dots (horizontal resolution) and 768 vertical lines (vertical resolution).

TCO'95-Ecological requirements for personal computers (TCO applied model only)
AB general requirements
AB2 Written Eco-document acompanying the products
Congratulations! You h ave just pu rchased a TCO'95 approv ed and labell ed product ! Your choice h as provided y ou with
a product developed for prof essional use. Your purch ase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the envi ronment
and to the further development of environmentally-adapted electronic products.
Why do we have environmentally-labelled monitors?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods
and services to the environment.The main problem as far as monitors and other electronic equipment are concerned is
that environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it has not been
possible so far for the majority of electronic equipment to be recycled in a satisfactory way, most of these potentially
damaging substances sooner or later enter Nature.
There are also other characteristics of a monitor, such as energy consumption levels, that are important from both the
working and natural envir onment viewpoints. Since all types of conventional electr icity generation have a negative eff ect
on the environment (acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste, etc.) it is vital to conserve energy.
Electronic equipment in offices consumes an enormous amount of energy, since it is often routinely left running
continuously.
What does labelling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'95 scheme, which provides for international enviro nmen tal labelling
of monitors. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of
Professional Employees), Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and NUTEK (The
National Board for Industrial and Technical Development in Sweden).
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of electrical and magnetic
fields, energy consumption and electrical and fire safety.
The environmental demands concern among other things restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals,
brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freo ns), and chlorinated solvents. The product must be prepared for
recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental plan, which must be adhered to in each country
where the company conducts its operations policy. The energy requirements include a demand that the monitor after a
certain period of inactivity shall reduce its power cons umption to a lower level, in one or more s tages. The length of tim e
to reactivate the monitor shall be reasonable for the user. Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands,
for example in respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, along with physical and visual ergonomics and
good usability.

TCO'95 is a co-operative project between(3 logos)
Environmental Requirements
Brominated flame retardants are presen t in printed circuit bo ards, cables, wires, casings and housin gs. In turn, they delay
the spread of fire. Up to thirty percent of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant subs tances. These
are related to another group of envi ron menta l t oxins , P CB s, which are s us pected t o giv e rise to si mil ar har m, includi n g
reproductive damage in fish eating birds and mammals, due to the bioaccumulative processes. Flame retardants have
been found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur. TCO'95 demand
requires that plasti c components weighi ng more than 25 grams must not contain organic ally bound chlorine an d bromine.
Lead
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in
higher doses, causes lead poisoning. TCO'95 requirement Permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet
been developed.
Cadmium
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour generating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium
damages the nervous sys tem and is toxic in high doses. TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more
than 25 ppm (parts per million) of cadmium. The colour-generating layers of display screens must not contain any
cadmium.
Mercury
Mercury is sometimes found in batteri es, relays and swit ches. Mercury damages the nervous syst em and is toxic in high
doses. TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million) of mercury. It also
demands that no mercury is present in any of the electrical or electronics components concerned with the display unit.
CFCs (freons)
CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards and in the manufacturing of expanded foam for
packaging. CFCs break down ozo ne and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causin g increased reception
on Earth of ultraviolet light with consequent increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).
.
The relevant TCO'95 requirement: Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacturing of the
product or its packaging.

TCO'99-Ecological requirements for personal computers (TCO applied model only)
Congratulations!
You have just purchased a TCO'99 approved and labelled product! Your choice has provided you with a product
developed for professional us e. Your purchas e has also contrib uted to reduci ng the burden on the environment and also
to the further development of environmentally adapted electronics products.
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for an international environmental and
quality labelling labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO(The
Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen(The Swedish Society for Nature
Conservation), Statens Energimyndighet(The Swedish National Energy Administration) and SEMKO AB.
The requirements cover a wide range of issuse: environment, ergonomics, usability, reduction of electric and magnetic
fields, energy consumption and electrical safety.
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods
and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concern ed,
is that environmentally harmful substances are used both in the prod ucts and du ring their manufacture. Since it is not so
far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances
sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are important from the
viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity generation
have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital
to save energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left running con tinuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy .
What does labelling involve?
The environmental demands has been developed by Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature
Conservation). These demands impose restrictio ns on the presence and use o f heavy met als, bromi nated and chlo rinated
flame retardants, CFCs(freons)and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared fo r recycling
and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy which must be adhered to in each country where the
company implements its operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall
reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall
be reasonable for the user.

Environmental requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose is to prevent,
or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant
substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically related to
another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs
are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals,
due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that
disturbances in foetus development may occur.
The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must not contain flame
retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since
no substitutes are available.
Cadmium**
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium
damages the nervous system and is toxic in high dos es. The relevant TCO'99 requ irement states that batteries, the co lourgenerating layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.
Mercury**
Mercury is sometimes found i n batt eries, r elays and switch es. It damag es the n ervous sy stem an d is toxi c in high doses.
The relevant TCO'99 requirement stat es that batteries ma y not contain any mercury. It also demands that mercu ry is not
present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated with the labelled unit. There is however one
exception. Mercury is, for the time being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel monitors as today there is no
commercially available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a Mercury free alternative is available.
CFCs (freons)
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufact ure and assembly
of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and
thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g.
increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.
Lead**
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in
higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement
has yet been developed.
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms.
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
