Important features
The display has the following features, which permit a wide range of applications:
Compact design
Low weight and short overall depth are important advantages of the flat panel display
compared to conventional CRT monitors.
Perfect picture reproduction thanks to LCD technology
Distortions in the image geometry are not present because of the use of LCD technology.
The flat panel display provides a flicker-free picture even with low refresh rates (60 Hz). The
display thus fulfills even the strictest ergonomic requirements.
Modification of gray scale setting
In medical applications (e.g. for x-rays, scanners and nuclear spin tomography), where
pictures are usually displayed in shades of gray, the gray values can be adapted to the
user's eye using an on-screen display (OSD) menu. In the delivered state, several
adjustment curves can be selected. Further curves can be set using the SMfit ACT®
calibration software and a Siemens photometer (Siemens Serial Spot Meter or Siemens
Universal Serial Luminance Meter).
Screen resolution
The display is equipped with an active 18" TFT display module, which provides a very wide
viewing angle. The picture resolution is 1280 x 1024 pixels.
RGB input
The display can be connected to the computer system using BNC sockets. The display is
adapted to the signal using an OSD menu.
