1. Preliminary Remarks  
Protection against scratch.  
Please be careful not to hit, press or rub the screen surface with hard material like tools. In addition, please do  
not put heavy or hard material on the screen surface, and do not stack monitors. Polarizer at the front surface  
can be easily scratched.  
Temperature dependence of the display.  
Response speed (optical response) of the LCD display is dependent on temperature. Under low temperature,  
response speed is slower. Also brightness and chromaticity change slightly depend on temperature.  
Image retention  
Displaying the same pattern for a long time may cause image sticking, vertical dark lines or other forms of image  
artifacts. This is a common phenomenon of all LCD displays. It disappears after some time if the pattern is  
changed, or the monitor is switched off. However, image retention is not subject of warranty.  
For more information contact Barco for a white paper on this topic.  
Lightning conditions  
Consider existing lightning and sunlight angles when creating the installation layout. Extremely bright lightning  
can reduce the visibility and the quality of the displayed image.  
In extremely bright surroundings, adjusting screen intensity may not result in perceptibly brighter images. Keep  
in mind that extreme intensity settings can reduce system service life.  
Barco products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety regulations. Exposing flamma-  
ble or combustible materials into close proximity of this device could result in the spontaneous ignition of that  
material, resulting in a fire. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an "exclusion zone" around all  
external surfaces of the monitor whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone  
must be not less than 10 cm (4"). Do not cover the monitor with any material while it is in operation.

3. Design and function  
3.1 Display of choice  
The state-of-the-art monitors deliver crisp, clear images detailed to perfection. Compatible with a wide variety of  
signal sources, they are capable of showing analog video as well as data content.  
Sources and interfaces  
The monitor provides interfaces to connect composite video, S-Video, component video as well as analog or digi-  
tal RGB.  
Picture-in-Picture  
Two of the connected sources can be displayed simultaneously, either next to each other (PAP: picture-and-  
picture), or one source embedded in the other (PIP: picture in picture).  
The sources can be controlled individually (brightness, contrast, color)  
Automatic brightness adjustment  
A light sensor determines the surrounding light intensity. According the measurement, the panel will adjust to  
one of the two preset brightness levels: bright mode or dim mode.  
User friendliness  
The monitors can intuitively be operated and controlled via the OSD and the Infra Red Remote Control Unit (IR  
RCU).  
The language of the OSD can be selected as well as its position on the screen, size, etc.  
RS232 remote control is also possible.  
In case you want to operate the monitor via RS232 Remote Control, contact Barco about  
the protocol!

3.2 Technology  
The monitors are based on LCD Super MVA technology. The benefits of this technology are wide viewing angles,  
fast video response and high contrast ratio.  
MVA stands for Multidomain Vertical Alignment.  
3.2.1 Principle of LCD technology  
These are the basics used in LCD technology:  
•
•
•
•
Light can be polarized  
Liquid crystals can transmit polarized light.  
Liquid crystals align themselves when a voltage is applied.  
Liquid crystals change the light's plane of vibration to match their own angle.  
There are multiple operating principles of LCD's; one of them is the Multidomain Vertical Alignment which – not  
surprising – is based on the Vertical Alignment (VA) technology.  
With this operating principle, the LC molecules are completely perpendicular when no voltage is applied, and  
thus they don't change the polarization of light. Light simply passes the LC, and is blocked by the front end polar-  
izer (since this polarizer is rotated 90° against the back end polarizer which allowed the incident light to pass).  
Because the blockage is complete, the quality of black produced this way is excellent!  
When voltage is applied, the molecules shift to a horizontal position, producing a white image: the polarization  
of the light is changed, and light can pass the front end polarizer.  
Since the LC molecules are simply switched between vertical and horizontal alignment, response speeds are very  
fast.  
As a further development of the VA technology, with MVA technology the LC cell is divided in sub domains where  
the molecules are oriented in opposite direction. This widens the viewing angles and enhances the performance.  
The following picture shows the basic principle of VA technology:

4.3 Functions available with the IR Remote Control Unit  
4.3.1 Displaying a monitor address  
The default (factory) address of a monitor is 1.  
Via the OSD, every monitor can be assigned a unique address in the range of 1 and 255, cf. 5.6.1 Set display  
address  
With the IR remote control unit, all monitors with any address can be controlled.  
With RS232 remote control, the monitors can be controlled individually if they had received a unique display  
address. (This address can be displayed by means of the function key F5 on the IR remote control unit).  
Press F5 on the IR remote control unit to display the assigned address of the monitor.  
4.3.2 Baud rate setting  
The default baud rate for RS232 communication is 115200 baud. The baud rate can be set in the OSD, cf.  
5.6.2 Baud rate.  
With the PAUSE key on the IR RCU the baud rate can directly be set to 115200, 38400, 19200, or 9600, respec-  
tively. Press PAUSE to display the currently set baud rate. Press PAUSE again to switch the baud rate to the next  
lower setting. In case the baud rate is 9600, the next setting will be 115200.

5. The On Screen Display (OSD)  
5.1 General  
The monitors feature an OSD which allows selecting the input, to adjust the sources, to modify OSD settings, etc.  
When activating the OSD, the main menu is displayed.  
Except for the function keys and the direct access keys, it is always the main menu which  
is the entry level for any modification.  
The main menu is activated by pressing ADJ on the RCU or by pressing push button 7 (the bottom most push  
button the right rear side).  
A selected menu item shows a blue background, an unselected menu item a gray background.  
A selected menu entry looks like a button and it is indicated with a blue dot.  
The current status of the menu entry shows a blue background.  
If a value has been modified, it will definitely be applied when quitting the dialog (even  
when pressing EXIT!)  
Therefore it is recommended to write down the values: there is no UNDO to a single  
operation, only the global factory reset.  
Grayed out menus or items are not available with the current configuration.

5.3.1.1 Brightness  
Brightness can be adjusted in the range between 0 and 100.  
LCD panel screens are lit with built-in fluorescent tubes above, beside and sometimes behind the LCD (Cold Cath-  
ode Fluorescent Lamp, CCFL). This light is adjusted using the Brightness setting.  
How brightness is perceived depends on the environment and on the content being viewed, which means that  
switching a source and/or the ambient light could require re-adjustment of brightness.  
How bright a pixel is perceived depends on both, brightness setting and contrast setting: bright-  
ness setting affects all levels from white to black at once. Contrast setting affects all but black.

There are multiple color models, one of them is the HSV model describing color as hue (color), saturation (the  
amount of white light in the color), and V (value, the amount of black/lightness/brightness).  
With PAL, part of the color information on the video signal is reversed in phase with each line,  
which automatically corrects phase errors in the transmission of the signal.

On the PIP CONTROL dialog, the vertical and horizontal position of the image can be set as well as an area for

PIP means picture-in-picture and displays dual moving images from two separate sources (e.g., PC and video) at  
the same time.  
There are two different ways: one source is displayed in full size, and the other one is displayed in a small size  
overlaying the full screen picture. The full screen picture is called master source, and the other one PIP source.  
Besides this display mode, the two sources can be displayed "side to side", which is called PAP mode (picture  
and picture).  
The source selected on input 1 is always the master source, the source selected on input 2 is always the PIP  
source.  
The master source and the PIP source can be switched by means of the function key F3 on the RCU (which in fact  
is changing sources at the inputs).  
PIP settings made with input 2 are only applied when input 2 becomes the PIP master!

On the Image dialog, the settings of the signal can be optimized.  
For best image results, use short cables between the source and the monitor!  
The image dialog depends on the source:  
In case of analog RGB, the image settings comprises Scaling, Auto adjust, Phase, and Clock.  
In case of S-Video/Video, the image settings comprise Scaling, Noise Reduction, Angle Filter, Film Mode Detect,  
Sharpness.  
In case of a DVI, due to the digital interface, no adjustment is required. Therefore the dialog only comprises Scal-  
ing-  
Image is only enabled for the source assigned to input 1!  
To do the image adjustment for the source of input 2, this source has to be assigned to  
input 1.

5. The On Screen Display (OSD)  
5.3.5.1 Analog RGB  
Scaling  
Scaling can be set to Native, Fill, Aspect, and 4:3.  
Scaling means changing the resolution of an image.  
Native is only enabled when the detected resolution of the source is lower than the resolution of the monitor.  
'The monitor has a resolution of 1920x1080 pixel. In case the resolution of the source is lower (e.g. a PAL Video  
with 720x540 pixels), when displayed 1:1, there will be a black border around the content.  
In case Fill is selected, the content is displayed on the entire screen which, in case the ratio of the source is dif-  
ferent from the ratio of the screen (e.g. a PAL Video, 4:3), results in a distortion of the content: with PAL, in hori-  
zontal direction, the pixels would be multiplied by a factor of 2.6, whereas in vertical direction the factor would  
be 2.0.  
With Aspect, the aspect ratio of the source is maintained: in the above mentioned example, the pixels both in  
horizontal and in vertical direction would be multiplied by a factor of two, thus the content would have a black  
border of 240 pixels both, on the left side and on the right side.  
4:3: if a PAL/NTSC source is connected to an input, the 4:3 setting displays the source without any distortion (e.g.  
a circle remains a circle).

Auto Adjust  
When Auto Adjust is selected, the monitor adjusts itself to the timing of the source which matches best one of  
the internal preset timings.  
Use the key FREEZE on the remote control unit to immediately start Auto Adjust.  
During the Auto Adjust process, the monitor displays an information "Auto Configuration".  
In case Auto Adjust is not selected, or the results are not perfect, the timing of the source  
has to be manually adjusted to the timing of the monitor using the controls Phase and  
Clock.  
Both controls are to minimize the interferences (noise). Clock is course adjustment  
whereas Phase is fine tuning of the setting.  
To do the adjustment, use a test pattern (e.g. vertical stripes) of the connected source!

The Gamma correction factor can be set to 2.2, 1.9, 2.5, and user.  
Gamma is the relationship between the color values of the data and the color values displayed e.g. on a screen.  
The Gamma coefficient makes it possible to adjust the brightness of the midtones only without affecting the very  
bright and very dark areas..  
If gamma is set too high, middle tones appear too dark. If it's set too low, middle tones appear too light.  
Using Barco’s DCMS software (display consistency management software), the monitor can be calibrated and the  
calibrated setting (look-up table, LUT) can be saved in the monitor. The gamma setting "user" activates the last  
calibrated value.

6. Maintenance and servicing  
6.1 Cleaning  
Consult your dealer for internal cleaning once a year.  
If you allow dust to accumulate on the unit, it may cause fire or malfunction when you operate it.  
Refer to your dealer about the internal cleaning.  
Power plug  
If dust has collected on the power plug connectors, remove the plug from the outlet and clean off the dust. This  
dust may cause a fire due to reduced insulation of the plug.  
Cabinet  
Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a  
damp cloth for cleaning. To keep the cabinet looking brand-new, periodically clean it with a soft cloth. Stubborn  
stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents,  
such as thinner or benzene, or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage the cabinet.  
Contamination of screen surface.  
When the screen surface of the monitor is contaminated, please wipe the surface softly with cotton swab or  
clean cloth. If it is not enough, please take it away with cellophane tape or wipe the surface with cotton swab or  
clean cloth containing solvent of 50% alcohol. In this case, please be careful so that the solvent does not get in  
inside of the LCD module, because it may be damaged.  
Water drop on LCD surface  
Please do not leave LCD module with water drop. When the display surface gets water drop, please wipe it off  
with cotton swab or soft cloth immediately, otherwise display surface will be deteriorated. If water gets in inside  
the LCD module, the electric circuits may be damaged.

10. Troubleshooting  
10.1 Faults  
Faults  
cause/steps  
No picture  
Make sure that the power cord is plugged into the wall out-  
let.  
Make sure that the power switch on the rear of the monitor  
is switched on!  
Make sure that the monitor is not in standby (check the LED  
indicator: if it shows orange, the monitor is in standby)  
Check if the signal cables are properly connected to the  
monitor and to the signal source  
Check if the input setting is correct (VGA, DVI, Composite, S-  
Video, Component, HD-SDI)  
Check if the signal is suitable.  
The monitor can not be controlled via the  
IR RCU  
Make sure that the batteries are inserted correctly (match-  
ing the + and – marks of the battery compartment)  
Replace the batteries.  
Point the front of the RCU directly to the sensor on the  
screen.  
The remote control unit will not function properly if strong  
light strikes the sensor window or if there are obstacles be-  
tween the remote control unit and the IR sensor.  
The picture color is pale, or not clear  
Check the Color setting  
If you are using YUV terminals, make sure that the cables  
are correctly connected!  
The picture is green or purple when VGA signal  
is connected  
Press F4 on the remote control.  
Restart the monitor to let it resync.  
Restart the monitor to let it resync.  
Picture vibrates when genlock is selected on  
the Barco Transform H/A controller  
Picture vibrates when interlaced video signal is  
brought to the DVI or VGA input.  
The monitor doesn’t work with the analog  
output of the Barco Transform H/A controllers  
It is not supposed to. Use the digital output and DVI input to  
the monitor.  
PC/graphical card doesn’t work on the VGA  
input  
Use the digital output (DVI) of your graphical card or dock-  
ing station.  
The monitor says ‘no signal’ or ‘no cable’ when  
a DVI or VGA signal is attached.  
This may happen if a video input is used before switching  
off. Keep pressing F1 on the remote control until the right  
input is selected. If this doesn’t help, check the table of  
timings to make sure the input signal is supported.  
The VGA image is not scaled properly.  
Press the || button on the remote control to autoadjust.
