1-3. Setting the resolution  
The following look-up table shows the maximum (Non-interlaced) vertical refresh  
rates for this model with regard to standard resolutions set forth by VESA. The  
best way to see if the monitor will work with a given resolution and rate, is to  
compare the vertical refresh rate of the graphics board to the monitors range (Refer  
to the graphics board manual for specifications). If the refresh rate is within the  
specified range of the monitor, it should operate properly.

What is Resolution?  
Resolution is expressed as the number of dots (pixels) displayed on the screen. A  
larger number of dots produces a more sharply defined (a higher-resolution)  
image.  
Note that for a given screen size the dot size decreases as the number of dots  
increases: a 640 x 480 (dot x line) resolution uses larger pixels than a 1024 x 768  
resolution. The display size of a given font therefore varies according to the  
resolution. Higher resolutions allow you to display more information on the  
screen.

Moiré  
What is moiré?  
Moiré refers to an interference pattern of dark wavy lines  
on the screen. It is not a defect, but rather an interference  
phenomenon caused by the relationship between the  
phosphor layout and the imaging signal. Moiré is often an  
indication of a good focus level. Moiré is particularly  
noticeable when using a light-gray or every-other-dot  
pattern background. Although moiré can not be elimi-  
nated, it can be reduced with the moiré reduction feature.

What is color temperature?  
Color temperature is a method to measure the white  
color tone, generally indicated in degrees Kelvin. At high  
temperatures the white tone appears somewhat blue,  
while at lower temperatures it appears somewhat red.  
Computer monitors generally give best performance at  
high temperature settings.  
6,500K: This temperature is good for video-image  
display.  
9,300K: This is the default setting for your EIZO  
monitor.

Cutoff  
Cutoff and Gain adjustments  
Monitors use red, green and blue (R, G, and B) to  
convey color information. They use an additive method  
to combine different amounts of the primary colors to  
produce a desired color. In other words, monitors start  
with no light (black) and add percentages of red, green  
and blue to make colors. White is usually produced by  
adding the same amount of all three colors, where black  
is usually produced by adding no color.  
However, colors are not only determined by the balance  
but also the intensities of R, G, and B (how bright they  
are) which we call Gain, and the saturation of R, G and  
B (how vivid or dull they are) which we call Cutoff.  
· If only a quick setting is required, that is close to the  
desired color, but not exact, skip making any changes to  
the Cutoff adjustment (step 4). If a precise match is  
desired, adjustment of the Cutoff levels must be made.  
We recommend that for exact matching, use a color  
calibrator.  
Set-up Procedure  
(1) Set the monitor to maximum brightness and contrast.  
(2) Return to the Colormenu and select the Custom  
modesetting.  
(3) Set the color temperature.  
(4) Adjust the Cutoff.  
(5) Adjust the Gain.  
(6) Select the Saveicon and then pres the enter key.

The Cutoff adjustment is the most powerful adjust-  
ment. It alters the starting point (the black level) and  
the ending point (the white level). If the Cutoff level  
for color is raised or lowered, black, white, and all  
levels between are raised or lowered by the same  
degree.

Gain (Custom Mode)  
Gain  
The Gain adjustment has no effect on the starting point  
(the black level). It changes only the ending point (the  
white level). The Gain adjustment is used to fine tune  
the whites and light grays to a good balance.  
· If an inappropriate adjustment is made, corrections can be made by repeating  
the above procedure starting from Step 3 (temperature setting).  
· The values shown in percentages (%) for both the Cutoff and Gain adjustments  
represent the current level within the specific adjustment only. They are available  
only as a reference tool. (To create a uniform white or black screen, the  
percentages for each will probably not be the same.)

9) The entire screen appears too  
dark or bright.  
Adjust the contrast and brightness using the  
ScreenManager. See page 11.  
Output level from the computer may not conform the  
monitor. Please set the video level using the  
ScreenManager. See page 17.  
Some signal timing can be the cause of this problem. To  
correct this, turn off the monitor, then hold down the  
AUTO-SIZING button and downarrow key while  
turning on the monitor again. This will change the  
signal timing and brighten the screen. If the above  
operation si repeated the screen becomes dark again.  
10) The screen is tilted/  
distorted.  
Adjust with the ScreenManager's tilt and distortion  
correcting function until tilt/distorting seems  
unnoticeable. See page 11.  
Check to see if there are any nearby interfering  
electronic devices such as another monitor, an electric  
motor, or a speaker (other than an optional EIZO  
i·Sound speaker unit.) If so, move the device or move  
the monitor.  
It is sometimes possible to correct distortion and tilting  
by reorienting the monitor.  
11) The image vibrates on the  
screen.  
Use of the Moiré” adjustment may cause a slight.  
vibration. To eliminate the vibration, set the adjustment  
level to lower percentage or 0%. See page 12.  
Check that the signal cable is properly connected to the  
graphics board or PC.  
Check that the graphics board is correctly mounted in  
the PC.  
The monitor may be located close to a device that is  
generating a magnetic field. Such devices include  
speakers (other than the EIZO optional i·Sound  
speaker), electric motors, high-voltage cables, and other  
monitors. It may be solved by switching off or moving  
the interfering device, or by relocating the monitor.  
If the volume level of the EIZO optional i·Sound speaker  
is too high, it may, in some cases, cause a slight vibra-  
tion. To eliminate, turn down the volume of the speaker.  
·
An unstable signal from the graphics board may be the cause of the above problem when  
using the monitor with a high resolution or in a high refresh mode. (The video signal from  
the graphics board might be made irregular due to the use of a high speed dot clock.)  
Change the resolution or the refresh rate to another setting.

Change the selected desktop or wallpaper pattern to  
any solid color pattern. For detailed information on  
how to change these patterns, refer to the  
documentation for the PC and operating system.  
14)The image is flickering.  
Flicker will occur with interlaced scanning, or  
non-interlaced scanning with a low refresh rate. All  
EIZO monitors are capable of reproducing high refresh  
rates for non-interlaced scanning. If a problem occurs  
when using a non-interlaced signal, try adjusting the  
graphics board to increase the refresh rate (if possible).  
Refer to the graphics board manual for information.  
Flicker  
The term flickerrefers to noticeable shimmering that occurs when the image on the  
screen is redrawn (refreshed) too slowly. A refresh rate of 80 Hz means the image is  
redrawn 80 times per second. Most people will notice flicker at image refresh rates as high  
as 60 or 70 Hz, whereas refresh rates of 72 Hz or above usually is not noticeable. Flicker  
is known to be the cause of visual fatigue.

Explanation of the Characteristics of CRTs  
When the monitor is not fully warmed up, the screen may look slightly colored, e.g.  
reddish or bluish. This phenomenon is due to the unstableness of the electron gun during  
its warm-up period. Please wait for about 30 minutes until the monitor stabilizes in order  
to gain its proper color.

Congratulations!  
You have just purchased a TCO’99 approved and labelled product! Your choice has provided you  
with a product developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the  
burden on the environment and also to the further development of environmentally adapted  
electronics products.  
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?  
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encourag-  
ing the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as  
computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful  
substances are used both in the products and during 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 continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.  
What does labelling involve?  
This product meets the requirements for the TCO’99 scheme which provides for international  
and environmental 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) and Statens  
Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration).  
Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability,  
emission of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical and fire safety.  
The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals,  
brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among  
other things. The product must be prepared for 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.  
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the  
reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and good usability.  
Below you will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met by this product.  
The complete environmental criteria document may be ordered from:

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 doses. The  
relevant TCO’99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display  
screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.  
Mercury**  
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system  
and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO’99 requirement states that batteries may not  
contain any mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or  
electronics components associated with the labelled unit.  
CFCs (freons)  
The relevant TCO’99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during  
the manufacture 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.
