Features

sRGB Color Control: A new optimized color management standard

which allows for color matching on computer displays and other

peripherals. The sRGB, which is based on the calibrated color space,

allows for optimal color representation and backward compatibility with

other common color standards.

Reduced Footprint: Provides the ideal solution for environments

requiring superior image quality but with size and weight limitations.

The monitor’s small footprint and low weight allow it to be moved or

transported easily from one location to another.

Color Control System: Allows you to adjust the colors on your screen

and customize the color accuracy of your monitor to a variety of

standards.

OSM (On-Screen Manager) Controls: Allow you to quickly and easily

adjust all elements of your screen image via simple to use on-screen

menus.

ErgoDesign Features: Enhance human ergonomics to improve the

working environment, protect the health of the user and save money.

Examples include OSM controls for quick and easy image adjustments,

tilt base for preferred angle of vision, small footprint and compliance with

MPRII and TCO guidelines for lower emissions.

Plug and Play: The Microsoft solution with the Windows 95/98/2000

operating system facilitates setup and installation by allowing the

monitor to send its capabilities (such as screen size and resolutions

supported) directly to your computer, automatically optimizing display

performance.

IPM (Intelligent Power Manager) System: Provides innovative

power-saving methods that allow the monitor to shift to a lower power

consumption level when on but not in use, saving two-thirds of your

monitor energy costs, reducing emissions and lowering the air

conditioning costs of the workplace.

Multiple Frequency Technology: Automatically adjusts monitor to the

display card’s scanning frequency, thus displaying the resolution

required.

English-24

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

FullScan Capability: Allows you to use the entire screen area in most

resolutions, significantly expanding image size.

Wide Viewing Angle Technology: Allows the user to be able to see the

monitor from any angle (170 degrees) from any orientation – Portrait or

Landscape. Provides full 170° viewing angles either up, down, left

or right.

VESA Standard Mounting Interface: Allows users to connect their

MultiSync monitor to any VESA standard (100 mm pitch) third party

mounting arm or bracket. Allows for the monitor to be mounted on a wall

or an arm using any third party compliant device.

ambix Technology: Dual input technology allowing both analog and

digital inputs through one connector (DVI-I) as well as additional legacy

analog support through a traditional 15-pin mini-D-sub connector.

Provides traditional MultiSync technology compatibility for analog as well

as TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signal) based digital

compatibility for digital inputs. TMDS-based digital interfaces include

DVI-D, DFP and P&D.

DVI-I: The integrated interface ratified by the Digital Display Working

Group (DDWG) that allows both digital and analog connectors through

one port. The “I” stands for integration for both digital and analog. The

digital portion is TMDS based.

DVI-D: The digital only subset of DVI ratified by the Digital Display

Working Group (DDWG) for digital connections between computers and

displays. As a digital only connector, analog support is not provided for

through a DVI-D connector. As a TMDS based digital only connection,

only a simple adapter is necessary for compatibility between DVI-D and

other TMDS based digital connectors such as DFP and P&D.

P&D: Plug and Display - The VESA standard for digital flat panel monitor

interfaces. It is more robust than DFP since it allows for other options

through a single connector (options like USB, analog video and IEEE-

1394-995). The VESA committee has recognized that DFP is a subset

of P&D. As a TMDS based connector (for the digital input pins), only a

simple adapter is necessary for compatibility between P&D and other

TMDS based digital connectors such as DVI and DFP.

Pivoting Stand: Allows users to adjust the monitor to the orientation

that best fits their application, either Landscape orientation for wide

documents, or portrait orientation for the ability to preview a full page

on one screen at one time. The Portrait orientation is also perfect for

full screen video conferencing.

Troubleshooting

No picture

• The signal cable should be completely connected to the display card/

computer.

• The display card should be completely seated in its slot.

• Check the Vacation Switch should be in the ON Position. Front power

Switch and computer power switch should be in the ON position.

• Check to make sure that a supported mode has been selected on the

display card or system being used. (Please consult display card or

system manual to change graphics mode.)

• Check the monitor and your display card with respect to compatibility

and recommended settings.

• Check the signal cable connector for bent or pushed-in pins.

• Check the signal input, “INPUT 1” or “INPUT 2”.

Power Button does not respond

• Unplug the power cord of the monitor from the AC outlet to turn off

and reset the monitor, or simultaneously press the RESET and

Power buttons.

• Check the Vacation Switch on the right hand side of the monitor.

Image persistence

• Image persistence is when a “ghost” of an image remains on the

screen even after the monitor has been turned off. Unlike CRT

monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent.

To alleviate image persistence, turn the monitor off for as long as an

image was displayed. If an image was on the monitor for one hour

and a “ghost” of that image remains, the monitor should be turned off

for one hour to erase the image.

NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC-Mitsubishi Electronic

Displays recommends using a screen saver at regular intervals

whenever the screen is idle.

Image is unstable, unfocused or swimming is

apparent

• Signal cable should be completely attached to the computer.

• Use the OSM Image Adjust controls to focus and adjust display by

increasing or decreasing the fine total. When the display mode is

changed, the OSM Image Adjust settings may need to be readjusted.

• Check the monitor and your display card with respect to compatibility

and recommended signal timings.

• If your text is garbled, change the video mode to non-interlace and

use 60 Hz refresh rate.

Message “OUT OF RANGE” is displayed (screen is

either blank or shows rough images only)

• Image is displayed only roughly (pixels are missing) and OSM

warning “OUT OF RANGE” is displayed: Either signal clock or

resolution is too high. Choose one of the supported modes.

• OSM warning “OUT OF RANGE” is displayed on a blank screen:

Signal frequency is out of range. Choose one of the supported

modes.

LED on monitor is not lit (no green or amber color

can be seen)

• Power Switch should be in the ON position and power cord should be

connected.

Display image is not sized properly

• Use the OSM Image Adjust controls to increase or decrease the

Coarse total.

• Check to make sure that a supported mode has been selected on the

display card or system being used. (Please consult display card or

system manual to change graphics mode.)

No Video

• If no video is present on the screen, turn the Power button off and

on again.

• Make certain the computer is not in a power-saving mode (touch the

keyboard or mouse).

TCO’99

This is a translation of the original English TCO'99 document.

MultiSync LCD1850X white Model (LH-18S02-1)

Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO’99

approved and labeled 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 the manufacturing.

Since it has not been possible for the majority of electronics 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 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

conventional electricity generation have a negative effect on the

environment (acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive

waste, etc.), it is vital to conserve energy. Electronics equipment in

offices consume an enormous amount of energy since they are often left

running continuously.

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).

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 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 plan 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.

Environmental Requirements

Flame retardants

Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires,

casings and housings. In turn, they delay the spread of fire. Up to thirty

percent of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame

retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride

and these are related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs,

which are suspected to give rise to severe health effects, including

reproductive damage in fisheating 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’99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than

25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound

chlorine and bromine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit

boards since no substitutes are available.

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’99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement

has yet been developed.

Cadmium**

Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the

colourgenerating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium

damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.

TCO’99 requirement states that batteries, the colourgenerating 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, Mercury

damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.

TCO’99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any Mercury.

It also demands that no mercury is present in any of the electrical or

electronics components associated with the display unit.

CFCs (freons)

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 consequent increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).

The relevant TCO’99 requirement; Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be

used during the manufacturing and assembly of the product or its

packaging.

* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within

living organisms.

** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are

Bioaccumulative.
