2-2. Getting Ready for Operation  
Try each setting procedure if necessary in the following cases.  
The display image size and / or position is incorrect  
Press the AUTO-SIZING button on the front panel. The AUTO-SIZING function centers  
the displayed image, aligning the images borders with respect to the monitor frame. In  
general, press the AUTO-SIZING button whenever changing the graphics board or the  
resolution p.30), or when image size and/or position is incorrect. If further adjustment is  
required, adjust the picture size/position as desired using the ScreenManager (See page  
14).  
A solid-color screen (i.e. red, green, blue) may appear briefly after pressing the  
AUTO-SIZING button. This is not a malfunction.  
The displaying area is too large or too small  
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.

Problems  
Points to check with possible solutions  
3. The image vibrates on  
the screen.  
Check that the signal cable is properly connected to the  
PC or graphics board.  
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 turning off or  
moving the interfering device, or by relocating the  
monitor.  
Use of the Moiré” adjustment may cause a slight  
vibration. To eliminate the vibration, set the  
adjustment level to lower percentage or 0%. (p.15)  
If the volume level of the EIZO optional i·Sound  
speaker is too high, it may, in some cases, cause a  
slight vibration. To eliminate, turn down the volume  
of the speaker.  
4. 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.  
5. Moiré patterns appear.  
Reduce the moiré using the Moiré” function in the  
ScreenManager Screenmenu. (p.15)  
Change the horizontal and vertical size of the display  
area.  
Change the selected desktop or wallpaper pattern to  
any solid color pattern. For detailed information on  
how to change these patterns, refer to the PC and  
operating system manual.  
6. The characters and  
images have a slight  
shadow on their right  
side.  
Change the mode of Signal Filterfunction in the  
ScreenManager Screenmenu. (p.16)  
Change the refresh rate. Refer to the PC and graphics  
board manual for information.

Adjust the Contrast and Brightnessfunction in the  
ScreenManager Mainmenu. (p.15)  
Some signal timing can be the cause of this problem.  
To correct this, turn off the monitor, then hold down  
the downarrow key while turning on the monitor  
again. This will change the signal timing and brighten  
the screen. If the above operation is repeated, the  
screen becomes dark again.  
Video signal level from the PC may not match the  
monitor. Set the video signal level using the  
ScreenManager. (p.16)  
8. Color is abnormal  
When the monitor is not fully warmed up, the screen  
may look slightly colored, e.g. bluish or reddish. This  
phenomenon is due to the unstableness of the electron  
gun during its warm-up period. Wait for about 30  
minutes until the monitor stabilizes in order to gain its  
proper color.  
Adjust the Degaussfunction in the ScreenManager  
Othersmenu. (p.19)  
Return the factory default setting by using Reset”  
function in the ScreenManager Othersmenu. Note  
that all the ScreenManager parameters will be returned  
to the factory default setting. (p.19)  
The entire screen  
appears bluish or  
reddish.  
Color purity is not  
uniform.  
Misconvergence of  
colors(red, green,  
blue).  
Try adjusting the Convergencein the ScreenManager  
Screenmenu. (p.15) The convergencefunction  
adjusts the entire screen. It is not possible to limit  
adjustment to specific screen areas.  
9. AUTO-SIZING button  
does not work properly.  
The Auto sizing function is intended for use on the  
Macintosh and on IBM compatibles running Windows.  
It may not work properly if either of the following  
cases.  
You are running an AT-compatible PC on MS-DOS  
(Not windows).  
The background color for the wall paperor  
desktoppattern is set to black.  
Some signals from graphics board may not function  
properly.  
24 5.TROUBLESHOOTING  
Problems  
Points to check with possible solutions  
10. ScreenManager/AUTO-  
SIZING button does not  
operate.  
The Adjustment Lock is probably on.  
To unlock: Turn off the monitor power, then hold  
down the AUTO-SIZING button once again and turn  
the power back on. (p.20)  
11. Two horizontal hairlines  
are visible on the screen.  
These are damper wires.  
[ About Damper wires]  
Damper wires are used to support the CRTs aperture  
grille, and are visible as thin dark lines across the  
screen. All EIZO aperture grille type CRTs include  
two such horizontal wires.  
The aperture grille itself is a grid of taut metal  
filaments that spans the entire screen from top to  
bottom.  
12. Faint black vertical lines  
are visible on the screen.  
The aperture grille may be misaligned. Shock or  
vibration during transport may, in some cases, cause  
the aperture grille to fall out of alignment. The  
problem will appear as one or more faint black lines  
across the screen.  
If this problem occurs, it may be solved by:  
1. Degaussing the screen.  
2. Lightly tapping (do not hit) the side of the monitor.  
If neither of these methods works, try executing the  
following procedure.  
1. Display a bright white field over the area where the  
black line(s) appear, with a black field over the  
unaffected areas. (Do this by opening a bright-white  
window on top of a black desktop or wallpaper  
background. Position the window so that it just  
covers the area of misalignment.)  
2. Set brightness and contrast to maximum values, and  
keep the display ON until the problem is corrected.  
Try tapping the side of the display lightly to help  
expedite realignment. The white field will heat up  
the misaligned area of the grille, returning it to  
proper alignment.  
5.TROUBLESHOOTING 25  
6. CLEANING  
Periodic cleaning is recommended to keep the monitor looking new and to prolong its  
operational lifetime. Clean the cabinet and CRT areas as follows:  
WARNING  
Keep liquids away from the monitor.  
Spillage into the cabinet may result in fire, electric shock, or  
equipment damage. If an object or liquid falls/spills into the  
cabinet, unplug the monitor immediately. Have the unit checked  
by a qualified service engineer before using it again. Using the  
monitor in this condition could cause serious injury or equipment  
damage.  
CAUTION  
To ensure safety, always unplug the monitor before cleaning  
it. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.  
Periodically clean the area around the plug.  
Buildup of dust, water, or oil on the plug may result in fire.  
Never use thinner, benzene, alcohol (ethanol, methanol, or  
isopropyl alcohol), abrasive cleaners, or other strong  
solvents, as these may cause damage to the cabinet or CRT.  
Cabinet  
To remove stains, wipe the cabinet with a soft, lightly moistened cloth using a mild  
detergent. Do not spray wax or cleaner directly onto the cabinet.  
CRT Surface  
The CRT surface can be cleaned with a soft cloth, such as cotton or lens paper. If  
necessary, stubborn stains can be removed by moistening part of a cloth with water to  
enhance its cleaning power.

8. GLOSSARY  
ColorTemperature  
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.  
5,000K: Often used in printing industry.  
6,500K: Good for video-image display.  
9,300K: Default setting for your EIZO monitor.  
Convergence  
Convergence is the monitors ability to precisely illuminate specific phosphors and  
line them up properly in order to produce pure color.  
Cutoff and Gain  
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.  
Degaussing  
Degaussingrefers to the process of removing magnetic-field effects from the  
monitor. Operation of the monitor within a magnetic field may adversely effect  
color purity. Degaussing can be used to correct the problem.  
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 eliminated, it can be reduced  
with the moiré reduction feature.  
8.GLOSSARY 29  
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.  
Notes 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.  
VESA DPMS  
The acronym VESA stands for Video Electronics Standards Association,and  
DPMS stands for Display Power Management Signaling.DPMS is a  
communication standard that PCs and graphics boards use to implement power  
savings on the monitor side.

MEMO

Congratulations!  
You have just purchased a TCO99 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  
encouraging 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 TCO99 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.

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 TCO99 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 TCO99 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 TCO99 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 TCO99 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 TCO99  
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.
