About the VitalScreen
The Planar VS15XAD VitalScreen
™
display is a high-resolution color
monitor designed to be versatile and easy to use. This VitalScreen
display can accept either analog or digital video input and display
most video standards from 640 x 480 (Video Graphics Array, or VGA,
standard) to 1024 x 768 (Extended Graphics Array, or XGA, standard).
The controls located on the front panel allow you to easily adjust
the display’s parameters using onscreen menus.
The display’s video input is a single-link, transition minimized
differential signaling (TMDS) digital visual interface (DVI). It is compliant
with the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) DVI standard. This
interface produces the sharpest display image possible with little
need for adjustment. The setup is Plug and Play.
The display uses a mounting plate that conforms to the Video
Electronics Standards Association (VESA) mounting standard.

That
configuration allows the display to be mounted in a variety of ways,
such as on a wall bracket or swing arm. An alternate configuration
with a desk stand is also available for easy use on flat work surfaces.
The architecture of this display incorporates an AMLCD panel that
produces a clear display with low radiation emission, greatly reducing
the radiation-related health concerns associated with CRT monitors.
Selecting a Workspace
Before you unpack the VitalScreen display, select a suitable workspace
for the display and computer. You need a stable, level, and clean
surface near a wall outlet.
Avoid setting up the display near a window where sunlight often
comes in. You will have difficulty seeing the screen with glare reflecting
off the display.
This display is cooled by natural convection. For the best performance,
do not block the cooling vents. Place the display in a location that
allows sufficient airflow to ensure proper ventilation.
* The VESA Flat Panel Monitor Physical Mounting Interface (FPMPMI) Standard
defines physical mounting interfaces for flat-panel monitors, corresponding
standards for flat-panel monitor mounting devices, and associated cable, cable
connectors, and power adapter location guidelines. For more information, see
