Operation
5.1
Operating precautions
•
Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the display for long periods of time to
avoid image persistence (after-image effects).
•
For optimum performance, allow 20 minutes for warm-up.
•
The unit should be used in environmental conditions as described in the
technical specification. Using the display beyond its specifications (tempera-
ture, humidity,…) will degrade its performance.
5.2
Image persistense notice
Image persistence is when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image
remains visible on the screen.
Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors image persistence is not permanent, but
constant images being displayed for a long period of time should be avoided. To
alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous
image was displayed. For example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour
and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to
erase the image.
NOTE
:
As with all personal display devices, it is recommended to use a moving screen saver at regular
intervals whenever the screen is idle or to turn off the monitor when not in use.
