1. OVERVIEW
1.1 Introduction
The MFCD 1218, BARCO’s full color 18” LCD
display, guarantees perfect image quality in
medical imaging applications.
The display combines a TFT (thin film transistor)
liquid crystal display panel structure and a built-in
backlight with inverter for a better picture quality. It
is designed to meet users' needs for performance,
consistency, and outstanding image quality
through a streamlined development process in
which wall-mount functionality provides a variety
of capability.
The image on the display can be adjusted by
means of the extended on-screen menu system
(OSD).
The internal memory can contain settings for 24
different types of video signals (with different
timings). 22 are factory-preset, 2 are user-
definable.
The display accepts the most common display
standards. However, it is limited to the following
specifications: The horizontal frequency must be
between 31 and 91 kHz, the vertical frequency
between 56 and 85 Hz, and the maximum
resolution is 1280 x 1024.
Multi-scan
capabilities
The optimum and recommended resolution is
1280 x 1024 / 60 Hz.
The monitor comes with a power saving feature;
therefore, you may put the monitor into a power
saving state when it is not in use. This feature
complies with both EPA‘s Energy Star
Power Saving
requirements and European NUTEK/TCO’s power
management guidelines. It conforms to Video
Electronics Standard Association (VESA)
approved DPMS power-down signaling method.
This monitor automatically cuts down power
consumption of monitor set when not detecting
Hsync or Vsync signals. This feature is compliant
with VESA DPMS.

2.4 Starting up
Proceed as follows:
1
2
Switch on the computer.
Switch on the display by pushing the Power
key (9).
3
If necessary, select a suitable resolution in
the computer operating system. Please refer
to Appendix A, "Possible resolutions" in the
back of this manual.
Note: The recommended resolution for best
image quality is 1280x1024 at 60 Hz.
The microcontroller in the display checks if the
connected video signal has been adjusted before,
and if these adjustments have been stored in the
memory. There are 2 possibilities:
(9)
a) The video signal has been adjusted and
stored in the memory.
In this case, the display switches to this memory
location (the so-called mode) and the image will
need no further adjustments.
b) The video signal has not been adjusted and
stored yet.
In this case, the display will auto-size the picture
and store the settings in one of the user modes.
2.5 Install the DICOM Optimizer software
Proceed as follows:
Install the CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive. The
CD-ROM starts automatically. Please follow the
instructions on the screen.
The CD-ROM contains user instructions about the
