Installation  
1. Overview- What is MagicTune™  
Monitor performance can vary due to the graphics card, host computer, lighting conditions and other  
environmental factors. In order to get the best image on a monitor requires you to adjust it for your  
unique setting. Unfortunately, the manual controls available to tune the image often prove to be  
challenging. Proper adjustment (tuning) requires an easy to use program that goes through a step-  
by-step process to obtain the best overall picture quality.  
In most cases even simple adjustments to Brightness, or Contrast require navigation of the multi-  
level, on-screen display (OSD) menus that are not easy to understand. Furthermore, there is no  
feedback to assist in correctly setting the controls of the monitor. MagicTune™ is a software utility  
that guides you through the tuning process with easy to understand instructions and back ground  
patterns designed for each monitor control. The display settings for each user can be saved,  
providing an easy way to select display characteristics in a multi-user environment, or having a  
single user have multiple defined presets based on content and ambient lighting.  
2. System Requirements  
MagicTune™ is a software utility that allows monitor adjustment and color tuning using the Display  
Data Channel Command Interface (DDC/CI) protocol. All adjustments to the display are control via  
software to eliminate the need to use the monitor on-screen display (OSD).

Vertical Frequency  
Terms  
The screen must be redrawn several times per second in order to create and display an image  
for the user. The frequency of this repetition per second is called Vertical Frequency or Refresh  
Rate. Unit: Hz

Natural Color  
For Better Display  
Authority  
Example: If the same light repeats itself 60 times per second, this is regarded as 60 Hz. In this  
case, flickering of the screen can be detected. To avoid this problem, there is a  
Flicker-free Mode using a vertical frequency over 70 Hz.  
Horizontal Frequency  
The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the left edge of the screen horizontally is  
called Horizontal Cycle. The inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called Horizontal  
Frequency. Unit: kHz  
Interlace and Non-Interlace Methods  
Showing the horizontal lines of the screen from the top to the bottom in order is called the Non-  
Interlace method while showing odd lines and then even lines in turn is called the Interlace  
method. The Non-Interlace method is used for the majority of monitors to ensure a clear image.  
The Interlace method is the same as that used in TVs.  
Plug & Play  
This is a function that provides the best quality screen for the user by allowing the computer and  
the monitor to exchange information automatically. This monitor follows the international  
standard VESA DDC for the Plug & Play function.  
Resolution  
The number of horizontal and vertical dots used to compose the screen image is called  
'resolution'. This number shows the accuracy of the display. High resolution is good for  
performing multiple tasks as more image information can be shown on the screen.  
Example: If the resolution is 1280 X 1280, this means the screen is composed of 1280  
horizontal dots (horizontal resolution) and 1280 vertical lines (vertical resolution).

Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO'95 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 to the further development of  
environmentally-adapted electronic products.  
Why do we have environmentally-labelled monitors?  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging  
the adaptation of goods and services to the environment.The main problem as far as monitors and  
other electronic equipment are concerned is that environmentally harmful substances are used  
both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it has not been possible so far for the  
majority of electronic equipment to be recycled in a satisfactory way, most of these potentially  
damaging substances sooner or later enter Nature.  
There are also other characteristics of a monitor, such as energy consumption levels, that are  
important from both the working and natural environment viewpoints. Since all types of  
conventional electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (acidic and climate-  
influencing emissions, radioactive waste, etc.) it is vital to conserve energy. Electronic equipment  
in offices consumes an enormous amount of energy, since it is often routinely left running  
continuously.  
What does labelling involve?  
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'95 scheme, which provides for international  
environmental labelling of monitors. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the  
TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Naturskyddsforeningen (The  
Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and NUTEK (The National Board for Industrial and  
Technical Development in Sweden).  
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of  
electrical and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical and fire safety.  
The environmental demands concern among other things restrictions on the presence and use of  
heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons), and chlorinated  
solvents. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an  
environmental plan, which must be adhered to in each country where the company conducts its  
operations policy. The energy requirements include a demand that the monitor after a certain  
period of inactivity shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level, in one or more stages. The  
length of time to reactivate the monitor shall be reasonable for the user.  
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example in respect of the  
reduction of electric and magnetic fields, along with physical and visual ergonomics and good  
usability.

Environmental Requirements  
Brominated flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and  
housings. In turn, they delay the spread of fire. Up to thirty percent of the plastic in a computer  
casing can consist of flame retardant substances. These are related to another group of  
environmental toxins, PCBs, which are suspected to give rise to similar harm, including  
reproductive damage in fish eating birds and mammals, due to the bioaccumulative processes.  
Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in  
foetus development may occur.  
z
TCO'95 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must not  
contain organically bound chlorine and bromine.  
Lead  
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the  
nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning.  
z
TCO'95 requirement Permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been  
developed.  
Cadmium  
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour generating layers of certain  
computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.  
z
TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million)  
of cadmium. The colour-generating layers of display screens must not contain any cadmium.

Mercury  
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. Mercury damages the nervous  
system and is toxic in high doses.  
z
TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million)  
of mercury. It also demands that no mercury is present in any of the electrical or electronics  
components concerned with the display unit.  
CFCs (freons)  
CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards and in the manufacturing of  
expanded foam for packaging. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in  
the stratosphere, causing increased reception on Earth of ultraviolet light with consequent  
increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).  
z
The relevant TCO'95 requirement: Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the  
manufacturing of the product or its packaging.  
TCO'99-Ecological requirements for personal computers (TCO'99 applied model only)  
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.  
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for an international  
environmental and quality labelling labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was  
developed as a joint effort by the TCO(The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees),  
Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen(The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation), Statens  
Energimyndighet(The Swedish National Energy Administration) and SEMKO AB.  
The requirements cover a wide range of issuse: environment, ergonomics, usability, reduction of  
electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical safety.  
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?  
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging  
the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers  
and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are  
used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to  
satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging  
substances sooner or later enter nature.  
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are  
important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments.  
Since all methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic  
and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics  
equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.  
What does labelling involve?  
The environmental demands has been developed by Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The  
Swedish Society for Nature Conservation). These demands impose restrictions on the presence  
and use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs(freons)and  
chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the  
manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy which must be adhered to in each  
country where the company implements its operational policy.  
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain  
period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The  
length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.

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. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are  
suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating  
birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found  
in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur.  
The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams  
must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants  
are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.  
Cadmium**  
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain  
computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The  
relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display screens  
and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.  
Mercury**  
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and  
is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any  
mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics  
components associated with the labelled unit. There is however one exception. Mercury is, for the  
time being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel monitors as today there is no  
commercially available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a Mercury free  
alternative is available.  
CFCs (freons)  
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the  
manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed  
circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere,  
causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer  
(malignant melanoma) as a consequence.  
Lead**  
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the  
nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO'99 requirement  
permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.
