This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. This system saves energy  
by switching your monitor into a low-power mode when it has not been used for a certain amount of  
time. The monitor automatically returns to normal operation when you  
press a key on the keyboard. For energy conservation, turn your monitor OFF when it is not needed, or  
when leaving it unattended for long periods. The PowerSaver system operates with a VESA DPMS  
compliant video card installed in your computer. Use a software utility installed on your computer to set  
up this feature.

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 1024, this means the screen is composed of 1280 horizontal dots  
(horizontal resolution) and 1024 vertical lines (vertical resolution).

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.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
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.  
Below you will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met by this product. The complete  
environmental criteria document may be ordered from:

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.  
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms.  
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.

by Samsung Electronics in association with Korea Electronics & Telecommunications Research Institute  
(ETRI). This system is available only for Samsung monitors and makes the color of the images on the  
monitor the same as the printed or scanned images.
