Display User Manual INTRODUCTION Overview Resolution and bandwidths The BARCO MGD 521 M and MGD 521 MKII displays are ultra-high resolution, grayscale portrait displays. Their outstanding visual performance, combining a 5 MegaPixel resolution with a very high brightness, makes them ideal for diagnostic imaging and many other medical and scientific applications. The displays are compatible with any AC power system worldwide and automatically synchronise to a wide range of sync frequencies.
Display User Manual adjust and check BARCOs medical displays. A lot of adjustments can also be done on the monitor itself, by means of an extensive on-screen menu system, accessible from the rear panel controls. Power saving system The MGD 521 displays are equipped with a power saving system. When left idle for a certain time, the computer, connected to the display, will power down the display in several steps.
Display User Manual About the manuals This guide is meant for people who want to install and use the MGD 521 displays, as well as people who need to install and adjust the displays. Chapter 4, Adjustments, is meant for this second category only, because it describes actions and procedures that require a technical skill to be performed properly. The use of the software MediCal is described in the MediCal Users Manual.
Display User Manual INSTALLATION Precautions Keep your original packaging. It is designed for this display and is the ideal protection during transport. Do not lift the display all by yourself to avoid injury. Avoid reflections in the picture tube to reduce eye strain. Place the display on a strong and stable table or desk if used as desktop display. Keep the display away from heat sources and provide enough ventilation in case it is built in a rack or console.
Display User Manual Controls and connectors {1} Optical sensor plug {2} Ambient Light Compensation (ALC) sensor (optional) {3} Green power LED {4} Control knob, combination of a push button and a turning knob. The control knob is used for switching the power on/off, and selecting and performing functions in the OSD (onscreen display) menu. {5} Remote (RS-232) output 4 {6} Remote (RS-232) input {7} Video input 5 6 7 8 9 {8} Horizontal / composite sync. input {9} Vertical sync.
Display User Manual Signal connection a) Connection of video signals ! The connected equipment must comply to all relevant safety demands. Important: The use of low-quality video cables can distort the video signal and influence diagnosis. 1. Check the impedance of the imaging board that produces the video signals you want to connect. It must be 50 or 75 Ohm (just like the input of the display). If not, the quality of the images on the display will be inferior. 2.
Display User Manual b) Connection of data signals The display can be controlled remotely by a computer through the serial data bus. A typical example of this, is the MediCal software that controls the display. MediCal runs on a PC that is connected through the serial data bus. This PC is not necessarily the same computer as the one that produces the video signals. Unlike the video signals, it is possible to daisy-chain the serial data bus. This means you can control different displays from one PC.
Display User Manual d) Connection of power 1. Power cord: Utilize a UL-listed detachable power cord, 3-wire, type SJ or equivalent, 18 AWG min., rated 300 V min., provided with a hospital-grade type plug 5-15P configuration for 120V application, or 6-15P for 240V application. 2. Plug one end of the power cord into the rear of the display (connector LINE {10}). Plug the other end into a grounded AC power outlet. The display automatically adapts to the voltage. The voltage range is: 100-240 VAC +/- 10%.
Display User Manual Important considerations The best environment for diagnostic imaging is one with controlled and dimmed ambient light. The human eye's sensitivity depends on the ambient light strength. It is most sensitive to small contrast changes (or subtle image details) at limited ambient light levels. The best ambient light level, expressed in Lux, depends on the application. An office illumination typically requires 500 Lux.
Display User Manual OPERATION: USER CONTROLS Important: The best way to adjust and control the display is by using MediCal, which displays the ideal test patterns for correct adjustment. However, in case you do not dispose of MediCal, you can control and adjust the display by means of the built-in On-Screen Display (OSD). Switching on / off Power on/off Press the Power button {11} on the rear panel to switch on the display. The green LED at the front is off when the display is operating.
Display User Manual Contrast and brightness control Contrast and brightness can be controlled through the OSD menus. To activate the OSD Turn the control knob {4} from left to right or from right to left. As a result, the OSD main menu appears. Note: The control knob should turn over at least 30 degrees before the OSD becomes visible.
Display User Manual To control contrast manually 1 Turn the control knob to select Contrast in the OSD main menu. 2 Press the control knob shortly. The contrast control menu appears. 3 In the contrast control menu, select Manual contrast adjustment and press the control knob shortly. The contrast scroll bar appears. 4 Turn the control knob until you have reached the desired contrast. 5 Press the control knob shortly or wait a few seconds to return to the contrast control menu.

Display User Manual APPENDIX A: BACKGROUND INFORMATION Luminance Uniformity Correction A characteristic (or limitation) of every picture tube (CRT) is that the luminance decreases towards the edge of the screen surface. The decrease is normally 20 to 30 %. This is caused by the shape of the picture tube. Inside the CRT, a socalled electron gun shoots an electron beam towards the front (the glass panel).
Display User Manual At last, the imaging board delivers no sync signals at all, and the micro-controller switches off all but one power supplies in the display. Only the micro-controller's own supply keeps on running, resulting in a very low power consumption of 5 W. If you start using the computer again, the imaging board switches on both sync signals, and the micro-controller switches on the display.
