5. TROUBLESHOOTING If a problem persists even after applying the suggested remedies, contact an EIZO dealer. Problems 1. No picture • Indicator status: Off • Indicator status: Green • Indicator status: Flashing Green / Yellow • Indicator status: Flashing Yellow 2. Following messages appear. • “No signal detected” error message appears. • “Out of range” error message appears. Whenever an error signal message appears, the signal frequency will be displayed in red. (Example) 22 5.
Problems Points to check with possible solutions The image vibrates on the screen. Check that the signal cable is properly connected to the PC or graphics board. The monitor may be located close to a device that is generating a magnetic field. Such devices include speakers (other than the EIZO optional i·Sound speaker), electric motors, high-voltage cables, and other monitors. It may be solved by turning off or moving the interfering device, or by relocating the monitor.
Problems Points to check with possible solutions 7. The entire screen appears too dark or bright. Adjust the “Contrast and Brightness” function in the ScreenManager “Main” menu. (p.15) Some signal timing can be the cause of this problem. To correct this, turn off the monitor, then hold down the “down” arrow key while turning on the monitor again. This will change the signal timing and brighten the screen. If the above operation is repeated, the screen becomes dark again.
Problems Points to check with possible solutions The Adjustment Lock is probably on. To unlock: Turn off the monitor power, then hold down the AUTO-SIZING button once again and turn the power back on. (p.20) 11. Two horizontal hairlines are visible on the screen. These are damper wires. 12. Faint black vertical lines are visible on the screen. The aperture grille may be misaligned. Shock or vibration during transport may, in some cases, cause the aperture grille to fall out of alignment.
6. CLEANING Periodic cleaning is recommended to keep the monitor looking new and to prolong its operational lifetime. Clean the cabinet and CRT areas as follows: WARNING • Keep liquids away from the monitor. Spillage into the cabinet may result in fire, electric shock, or equipment damage. If an object or liquid falls/spills into the cabinet, unplug the monitor immediately. Have the unit checked by a qualified service engineer before using it again.

8. GLOSSARY Color Temperature Convergence Convergence is the monitor’s ability to precisely illuminate specific phosphors and line them up properly in order to produce pure color. Cutoff and Gain Monitors use red, green and blue (R, G, and B) to convey color information. They use an additive method to combine different amounts of the primary colors to produce a desired color. In other words, monitors start with no light (black) and add percentages of red, green and blue to make colors.
Resolution Resolution is expressed as the number of dots (pixels) displayed on the screen. A larger number of dots produces a more sharply defined (a higher-resolution) image. Notes that for a given screen size the dot size decreases as the number of dots increases: a 640 x 480 (dot x line) resolution uses larger pixels than a 1024 X 768 resolution. The display size of a given font therefore varies according to the resolution. Higher resolutions allow you to display more information on the screen.

Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO’99 approved and labelled 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.
Environmental requirements Flame retardants Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist 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.
