Notice for This Monitor
Aside from general purposes like creating documents and viewing multimedia content, this product is also
suited to applications such as creating images and graphics, and digital photo processing, where accurate
color reproduction is a priority.
This product has been adjusted specifically for use in the region to which it was originally shipped. If the
product is used outside the region, it may not operate as specified in the specifications.
This product may not be covered by warranty for uses other than those described in this manual.
The specifications noted in this manual are only applicable when the following are used:
• Power cords provided with the product
• Signal cables specified by us
Only use optional products manufactured or specified by us with this product.
If you place this product on a lacquer-coated desk, the color may adhere to the bottom of the stand due to
the composition of the rubber. Check the desk surface before use.
It takes about 3 minutes (under our measurement conditions) for the performance of electrical parts to
stabilize. Please wait 30 minutes or more after the monitor power has been turned on, and then adjust the
monitor.
Monitors should be set to a lower brightness to reduce changes in luminosity caused by long-term use and
maintain a stable display.
When the screen image is changed after displaying the same image for extended periods of time, an
afterimage may appear. Use the screen saver or power save function to avoid displaying the same image for
extended periods of time.
If the monitor displays continuously over a long period of time, dark smudges or burn-in may appear. To
maximize the life of the monitor, we recommend the monitor be turned off periodically.
Periodic cleaning is recommended to keep the monitor looking new and to prolong its operation lifetime (refer
to “Cleaning” (page 4)).
The LCD panel is manufactured using high-precision technology. Although, missing pixels or lit pixels may
appear on the LCD panel, this is not a malfunction. Percentage of effective dots: 99.9994 % or higher.
The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed lifetime. When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker,
please contact your local EIZO representative.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in display malfunctions, such
as interference patterns, etc. If pressure is continually applied to the panel, it may deteriorate or damage
your panel. (If the pressure marks remain on the panel, leave the monitor with a black or white screen. The
symptom may disappear.)
Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, as this may result in damage to the panel. Do
not attempt to brush with tissues as this may scratch the panel.
Notice for This Monitor

When the monitor is cold and brought into a room or the room temperature goes up quickly, dew
condensation may occur on the interior and exterior surfaces of the monitor. In that case, do not turn the
monitor on. Instead wait until the dew condensation disappears, otherwise it may cause some damage to
the monitor.
Cleaning
Attention
• Chemicals such as alcohol and antiseptic solution may cause gloss variation, tarnishing, and fading of the cabinet
or panel, and also quality deterioration of the image.
• Never use any thinner, benzene, wax, and abrasive cleaner, which may damage the cabinet or panel.
The stains on the cabinet and panel surface can be removed by using the provided ScreenCleaner.
To Use the Monitor Comfortably
• An excessively dark or bright screen may affect your eyes. Adjust the brightness of the monitor
according to the environmental conditions.
• Staring at the monitor for a long time tires your eyes. Take a 10-minute rest every hour.

Attention
Be careful of the following points when using the built-in calibration sensor.
Do not touch the built-in calibration sensor.
It may reduce the measurement accuracy of the built-in calibration sensor, or result in injury
or equipment damage.
Attention
•• A high temperature or high humidity environment may affect the measurement accuracy of the built-in
calibration sensor. We suggest storing and using the monitor under the following conditions.
--Temperature 30ºC or less
--Humidity 70 % or less
Avoid storing or using the sensor where it may be exposed to direct sunlight.
•• Since the measurement result for the built-in sensor may be affected, ensure that the level of ambient light
that enters the receiver part of the built-in sensor does not change significantly during measuring. Do not
touch the screen while measurement is in progress.
--The use of a monitor hood is recommended.
--While measuring, do not bring your face or any objects close to the monitor, do not look into the sensor.
--Set the monitor in the environment so that external light does not enter the sensor directly.
Note
•• This monitor supports a portrait orientation display. When using the screen in a portrait position, you can
change the orientation of the Setting menu (see “Menu Rotation” (page 29)).
•• When using the monitor screen in a portrait position, the graphics board supporting portrait display is

●●SelfCalibration
This product is equipped with a built-in calibration sensor. By setting the calibration targets and
execution schedule in advance, the calibration sensor automatically operates and regularly calibrates
the monitor. This automatic calibration function is called "SelfCalibration".
The adjustment content of SelfCalibration differs depending on the color mode that is executed.
•• Advanced Mode (CAL mode: CAL1 / CAL2 / CAL3):
-- When performing SelfCalibration on the monitor itself, calibrate the monitor to match the set targets.
-- When using ColorNavigator 7, use ColorNavigator 7 and a measurement device to maintain the
calibrated state of the monitor.
•• Standard Mode (color mode excluding CAL1 / CAL2 / CAL3): the monitor's color reproduction
gamut is updated and each display mode in Standard Mode is adjusted as follows:
-- The temperature is adjusted so that it is as close as possible to the specified value.
-- The gamut values are adjusted so that they are close to each specified value.
-- Information on brightness is updated.
You can set the calibration targets and execution schedule in the monitor's Setting menu or in
ColorNavigator 7.
In this section, the settings for executing SelfCalibration on the monitor as a standalone unit are
explained. For the settings in ColorNavigator 7, refer to the ColorNavigator 7 User's Manual.
Attention
•• It is necessary to wait at least 30 minutes after turning on the power, in order to obtain correct measurement
results.
Note
•• When the main power of the monitor is on, SelfCalibration can also be executed when there are no PC
signals being input.
•• Because brightness and chromaticity will change as you use the monitor, it is recommended to calibrate the
monitor periodically.
•• The measurement results from the built-in calibration sensor can be correlated with the measurement
results from the external measurement device that you want to use as a reference. For details, refer to the
ColorNavigator 7 User's Manual.
Procedure
Use the following procedure to set up SelfCalibration. The steps differ according to the color mode
used for executing SelfCalibration.

Chapter 7 Glossary
Adobe®RGB
This is a definition of the practical RGB color space proposed by Adobe Systems in 1998. The
color reproduction range (color gamut) is broader than sRGB, and is highly adaptable to such fields
as printing etc.
Color Space
YUV and RGB, etc. are available. YUV expresses the color by using the luminance (Y), the color
difference of Blue (U), and the color difference of Red (V).
RGB does this by using the gradation of the 3 colors, Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B).
DisplayPort
This is the interface standard for image signals standardized in accordance with VESA. It was
developed with the aim of replacing the conventional DVI and analog interfaces, and it can transmit
high resolution signals and sound signals, which DVI does not support. The standard size and mini
size connectors have been standardized.
DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
DVI is a digital interface standard. DVI allows direct transmission of the PC’s digital data without
loss.
This adopts the TMDS transmission system and DVI connectors. There are two types of DVI
connectors. One is a DVI-D connector for digital signal input only. The other is a DVI-I connector
for both digital and analog signal inputs.
Gain
This is used to adjust each color parameter for red, green and blue. An LCD monitor displays the
color by the light passing through the panel color filter. Red, green and blue are the three primary
colors. All the colors on the screen are displayed by combining these three colors. The color tone
can be changed by adjusting the light intensity (volume) passing through each color’s filter.
Gamma
Generally, the monitor brightness varies nonlinearly with the input signal level, which is called
“Gamma Characteristic”. When the gamma value is low, the middle tone area is displayed brighter,
and darker when high. Changes to the gamma value will not affect contrast. A gamma value
appropriate for the display content should be selected.
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)
Digital signal coding system developed to copy-protect the digital contents, such as video, music,
etc.
This helps to transmit the digital contents safely by coding the digital contents sent via the DVI or
HDMI connector on the output side and decoding them on the input side.
Any digital contents cannot be reproduced if both of the equipments on the output and input sides
are not applicable to HDCP system.
50
Chapter 7 Glossary
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is a digital interface standard, developed for consumer electrical appliance or AV device.
This standard is issued on the basis of the DVI standard which is one of an interface specification
for the connection between a PC and a monitor. The projected image, sound and control signal
without compressed enable to be transmitted with one cable.
L*
L* is a lightness value based on the CIELUV and CIELAB color spaces. CIELUV and CIELAB are
color spaces that describe the relationship between color and human vision, in which L*
corresponds to perceived brightness.
Resolution
The LCD panel consists of numerous pixels of specified size, which are illuminated to form images.
This monitor consists of horizontal 2560 pixels and 1440 vertical pixels. At a resolution of 2560 ×
1440, all pixels are illuminated as a full screen (1:1).
sRGB (Standard RGB)
International standard for color reproduction and color space among peripheral devices (such as
monitors, printers, digital cameras, scanners). As a form of simple color matching for the Internet,
colors can be displayed using tones close to those of the transmission and reception devices.
Temperature
Color temperature is a method to measure the white color tone, generally indicated in degrees
Kelvin. The screen becomes reddish at a low temperature, and bluish at a high temperature, like
the flame temperature.
5000 K: Slightly reddish white
6500 K: White referred to as daylight-balanced color
9300 K: Slightly bluish white
