It will give you high resolution performance and convenient reliable operation in a variety of video operating modes. Features The monitor is a 19 inches (18.0 inches viewable ) intelligent, microprocessor based monitor compatible with most analog RGB (Red, Green, Blue) display standards, including IBM PC , PS/2 , Apple , Macintosh , Centris , Quadra , and Macintosh II family. USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports for the USB cable and hub. You at the back of the monitor are can designed devices-such as a mouse, for true Plug and Play function. prepared easily and flexibly connect USBkeyboard or printer- to the monitor The monitor provides crisp text and vivid color graphics with VGA, SVGA, XGA, and VESA Ergonomic modes (non-interlaced), and most Macintosh adaptor. compatible color video cards when used with the The monitor's wide video cards compatibility makes it possible or software without purchasing a new monitor. appropriate upgrade to Digitally controlled auto-scanning is done with the micro-processor for scan frequencies between 30 and 107kHz, and vertical scan frequencies between 50-200Hz. The microprocessor-based intelligence allows the monitor to operate in each frequency mode with the precision of a fixed frequency monitor. horizontal We Monitor accomplished Registration to The model and serial numbers rear are found of this unit.

By using the USB, you will be able to connect your mouse, keyboard, printer, and other peripherals to your monitor instead of having to connect them to your computer. This will give you greater flexibility in setting up your system. USB allows you to connect chain up to 120 devices on a single USB port, and you can "hot" plug (attach them while the computer is running) or unplug them while maintaining Plug and Plug auto detection and configuration. This monitor has an integrated self-powered USB hub, allowing up to 4 other USB devices to be attached it. USB 1.

Energy Saving Design complies with the EPA's Energy Star program, which is a program designed to have manufacturers of computer equipment build circuitry into their products to reduce power consumption during time of This monitor non-use. This monitor also goes into its energy saving mode if you exceed the monitor's operating limits, such as the maximum resolution of 1600x1200 or the frequency refresh rates of 30-107kHz horizontal vertical. When this monitor is used with PC with a Green or or EPA 50-200Hz Energy Star PC, Display the VESA software blanking following Management Signalling (DPMS) protocol, this monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption during periods of non-use. When the PC goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor will go into a suspended operation state, indicated by the Power LED light changing from a green color to an amber color. After an extended period in the suspended mode, the monitor will then enter a or a a screen Power semi-OFF mode to DPMS OFF mode conserve more as we call it in energy.

Recalling Display Modes When your monitor detects a mode it has seen before, it automatically recalls the image settings you may have made the last time you used that mode. You may, however, manually force a recall of each of the 12 preset modes by pressing the Recall button. All preset modes are automatically recalled as the monitor senses the incoming signal. The ability to recall the preset modes is dependent on the signal coming from your PC's video card or system. If this signal does not match any of the factory modes, the monitor automatically sets itself display the image. to Technical Information Troubleshooting Check the following before calling for service.

Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further development of environmentally adapted electronics products. You have choice has product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for an international environmental and quality 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), Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration) This and SEMKO AB. The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, reduction of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical safety. 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 as far as computers and other concerned, is that environmentally harmful problem, electronics equipment substances products and during their manufacture. possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances are Since it is not electronics are used both in the so far sooner or later enter nature. There also other characteristics of are 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. Environmental What does labelling involve? Labelling of Personal Computers The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must of be recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an policy which must be adhered to in each country where company implements its operational policy. prepared for environmental the The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power to a lower level in one or more consumption stages.

The complete environmental criteria document may be ordered from: TCO Development SE-114 94 Stockholm, Sweden Fax:+4687829207 Email (Internet): [email protected] regarding TCO'99 approved and labelled products may also be obtained via the Internet, using the address: http://www.tco-info.com/ Current information Environmental requirements Flame retardants present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings housings. Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the of fire. spread Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist Flame retardants are and 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. Environmental Labelling of Personal Computers The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed more circuit boards since substitutes no 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. There is however one exception. Mercury is, for the time being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel monitors as there today is no commercially available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a mercury free alternative is available. CFCs (freons) The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs assembly of the product. CFCs 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 may be used during the manufacture and (freons) are sometimes used for washing consequence.
