This monitor can be installed on any Plug & Play compatible system. The interac­tion of the monitor and the computer systems will provide the best operating
conditions and monitor settings. In most cases, the monitor installation will proceed
automatically, unless the user wishes to select alternate settings.

Dot Acceptable

TFT-LCD panels manufactured by using advanced semiconductor technology with
precision of 1ppm (one millionth) above are used for this product. But the pixels of
RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color appear to be bright sometimes or some
black pixels may be seen. This is not from bad quality and you can use it without
any problems.

For example, the number of TFT-LCD sub pixels contained in this product are
4,320,000.

Design and specifications are subject to change without prior notice.

This product complies with the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directives for residential use
and can be used in all areas including common residential areas. (Class B equipment emits
less electromagnetic waves than Class A equipment.)

PowerSaver

This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. This system saves
energy by switching your monitor to low-power mode when it has not been used for a certain
amount of time. The monitor automatically returns to normal operation when you press a key
on the keyboard. For energy conservation, turn your monitor OFF when it is not needed, or
when leaving it unattended for long periods. The PowerSaver system operates with a VESA
DPM compliant video card installed in your computer. Use the software utility installed on
your computer to set up this feature.

Information

For Better Display-- P2070, P2070G --

Adjust the computer resolution and screen injection rate (refresh rate) on the
computer as described below to enjoy the best picture quality. You can have an
uneven picture quality on screen if the best picture quality is not provided for TFT­LCD.

• Resolution : 1600 x 900

• Vertical frequency (refresh rate): 60 Hz

TFT-LCD panels manufactured by using advanced semiconductor technology
with a precision of 1ppm (one millionth) and above is used for this product. But the
pixels of RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color seem to be bright sometimes or
some of black pixels could be seen. This is not from bad quality and you can use
it without any problems.

• For example, the number of TFT-LCD sub pixels contained in this product are

4,320,000.

When cleaning the monitor and the panel outside, please apply the recom­mended small amount of cleaner by using a soft cloth to polish. Do not force the
LCD area but rub softly.

If excessive force is applied, you may stain it.

If you are not satisfied with the picture quality, you can get better quality of

picture by performing the "Auto Adjustment function" in display screen that is

appeared as window termination button is pressed.

If there's still noise after the automatic adjustment, use the Fine/Coarse adjustment

function.

When viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time, a residual image
or blurriness may appear.

Change the mode to energy save or set a screensaver to move the picture when
you need to be away from the monitor for an extended period of time.

PRODUCT INFORMATION (Image Retention Free)

LCD Monitors and TVs may have image retention when switching from one image to another
especially after displaying a stationary image for a long time.

This guide is to demonstrate correct usage of LCD products in order to protect them from
Image retention.

Warranty

Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.

Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

What is Image retention ?

Information

During normal operation of a LCD panel, pixel image retention doesn't occur. How­ever, if the same image is displayed for a long time, a slight difference in electric
charge accumulates between the two electrodes which encase the liquid crystal.
This may cause the liquid crystal to build up in a certain areas of the display. Thus,
the previous image is retained when switching to a new video image. All display
products, including LCD, are subject to image retention. This is not a product de­fect.

Please follow the suggestions below to protect your LCD from image retention.

Power Off, Screen Saver, or Power Save Mode

Ex)

• Turn the power off when using a stationary pattern.

• Turn the power off for 4 hours after 20 hours in use

•

Turn the power off for 2 hours after 12 hours in use

• Use a Screen saver if possible

• Screen saver in one color or a moving image is recommended.

• Set the Monitor to power off with the PC Display Properties Power Scheme.

Suggestions for specific applications

Ex) Airports, Transit Stations, Stock Markets, Banks, and Controlling Systems We
recommend that you follow set up of your display system program as below:

Display Information together with Logo or Moving image cycle.

Ex) Cycle : Display Information for 1 hour followed by a Display Logo or moving
image for 1 minute.

Change the Color Information periodically (Use 2 different colors).

Ex) Rotate the Color Information with 2 colors every 30 minutes.

Avoid using a combination of characters and background color with large difference
in luminance.

Avoid using Grey colors, which can cause Image retention easily.

• Avoid: Colors with big difference in luminance (Black & White, Grey)

Ex)

Information

• Recommended settings: Bright colors with little difference in luminance

• Change the characters color and background color every 30 minutes

Ex)

• Every 30 minutes, change the characters with movement.

Ex)

The best way to protect your monitor from Image retention is to set your PC or

System to operate a Screen Saver program when you are not using it.

Image retention may not occur when a LCD panel is operated under normal con­ditions.

Normal conditions are defined as continuously changing video patterns. When the
LCD panel is operated for a long time with a fixed pattern (-over 12 hours-), there
may be slight difference in voltage between electrodes that work the liquid crystal
(LC) in a pixel. The voltage difference between electrodes increases with time,
forcing the liquid crystal to lean. When this occurs, the previous image may be seen
when the pattern is changed.

To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference must be decreased.

Information

Our LCD Monitor satisfies ISO13406-2 Pixel fault Class II

Dot Pitch The image on a monitor is composed of red, green and blue

dots. The closer the dots, the higher the resolution. The dis­tance between two dots of the same color is called the 'Dot
Pitch'. Unit: mm

Vertical Frequency The screen must be redrawn several times per second in

order to create and display an image for the user. The fre­quency of this repetition per second is called the Vertical
Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit: Hz

Appendix

Example: If the same light repeats itself 60 times per sec­ond, this is regarded as 60 Hz.

Horizontal Frequency The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the

left edge of the screen horizontally is called the Horizontal
Cycle. The inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called
Horizontal Frequency. Unit: kHz

Showing the horizontal lines of the screen from the top to
the bottom sequentially is called the Non-Interlace method
while showing odd lines and then even lines in turn is called
the Interlace method. The Non-Interlace method is used for
the majority of monitors to ensure a clear image. The Inter­lace method is the same as that used in TVs.

international standard VESA DDC for the Plug & Play func­tion.

the screen image is called the 'resolution'. This number
shows the accuracy of the display. A high resolution is good
for performing multiple tasks as more image information can
be shown on the screen.

Example: If the resolution is 1920 x 1080 (1600 x 900), this
means the screen is composed of 1920(1600) horizontal
dots (horizontal resolution) and 1080(900) vertical lines
(vertical resolution).
