The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed lifetime. When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker, please contact
your dealer.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in display malfunctions, such as interference

6-1. Attaching an Arm
The stand can be removed and replaced with an arm (or another stand) to be attached to the monitor. Use
an arm or stand of EIZO option.
Attention
• When attaching an arm or stand, follow the instructions of their user’s manual.
• When using another manufacturer’s arm or stand, confirm the following in advance and select one conforming to
the VESA standard.
- Clearance between the screw holes: 100 mm × 100 mm
- Thickness of plate: 2.6 mm
- Strong enough to support weight of the monitor unit (except the stand) and attachments such as cables.
Use the screws as described below.
- FlexStand: The screws fixing the stand to the monitor
- Height adjustable stand: The screws supplied with this monitor (M4 × 12mm)
• When using an arm or stand, attach it to meet the following tilt angles of the monitor.
- Up 45 degrees, down 45 degrees (horizontal display, and vertical display rotated 90 degrees clockwise)
• Connect the cables after attaching an arm.
• Do not adjust the height of the stand removed from the monitor. When adjusted without attached monitor, it
causes the personnel injury or the damaged to the stand.
• Since the monitor and arm are so heavy, dropping them may result in injury or equipment damage.
[Attachment Procedure]
1 Lay the LCD monitor on a soft cloth spread over on a stable surface with the
panel surface facing down.
2 Remove the stand.
Prepare a screwdriver. Unscrew the four screws securing the unit and the stand with the screwdriver.

6-6. Glossary
Clock
The analog input monitor needs to reproduce a clock of the same frequency as the dot clock of the
graphics system in use, when the analog input signal is converted to a digital signal for image display.
This is called clock adjustment. If the clock pulse is not set correctly, some vertical bars appear on the
screen.
DisplayPort
DisplayPort is a next-generation digital AV interface that allows connection of the PC, audio, imaging
devices, etc. to the monitor. One cable can transfer sound with images.
DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
DVI is a digital interface standard. DVI allows direct transmission of the PC’s digital data without loss.
This adopts the TMDS transmission system and DVI connectors. There are two types of DVI connectors.
One is a DVI-D connector for digital signal input only. The other is a DVI-I connector for both digital and
analog signal inputs.
DVI DMPM (DVI Digital Monitor Power Management)
DVI DMPM is a digital interface power-saving function. The “Monitor ON (operating mode)” and
“Active Off (power-saving mode)” are indispensable for DVI DMPM as the monitor’s power mode.
Gain
This is used to adjust each color parameter for red, green and blue. An LCD monitor displays the color
by the light passing through the panel color filter. Red, green and blue are the three primary colors. All
the colors on the screen are displayed by combining these three colors. The color tone can be changed by
adjusting the light intensity (volume) passing through each color’s filter.
Gamma
Generally, the monitor brightness varies nonlinearly with the input signal level, which is called “Gamma
Characteristic”. A small gamma value produces a low-contrast image, while a large gamma value
produces a highcontrast image.
Chapter 6 Reference
46
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection)
Digital signal coding system developed to copy-protect the digital contents, such as video, music, etc.
This helps to transmit the digital contents safely by coding the digital contents sent via DVI terminal on
the output side and decoding them on the input side. Any digital contents cannot be reproduced if both of
the equipments on the output and input sides are not applicable to HDCP system.
Phase
Phase means the sampling timing to convert the analog input signal to a digital signal. Phase adjustment
is made to adjust the timing. It is recommended that phase adjustment be made after the clock is adjusted
correctly.
Range Adjustment
Range adjustment controls the signal output levels to display every color gradation. It is recommended
that range adjustment be made before color adjustment.
Resolution
The LCD panel consists of numerous pixels of specified size, which are illuminated to form images.
This monitor consists of 1680(CG223W) / 1920(CG243W) horizontal pixels and 1050(CG223W) /
1200(CG243W) vertical pixels. At a resolution of 1680 x 1050(CG223W) / 1920 x 1200(CG243W) , all
pixels are illuminated as a full screen (1:1).
sRGB (Standard RGB)
"International Standard for Red, Green, and Blue color space" A color space was defined with the aim of
the color matching between applications and hardware devices, such as monitors, scanners, printers and
digital cameras. As a standard default space, sRGB allows Internet users to closely match colors.
Temperature
Color temperature is a method to measure the white color tone, generally indicated in degrees Kelvin.
The screen becomes reddish at a low temperature, and bluish at a high temperature, like the flame
temperature.
5000K: Slightly reddish white (usually used in print industry)
6500K: White called daylight color (suited for web browsing)
9300K: Slightly bluish white (usually used for television)
TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signaling)
A signal transmission system for digital interface.
VESA DPM (Video Electronics Standards Association - Display Power Management )
VESA specifications achieve increased energy efficiency for computer monitors. This involves
standardization of signals sent from the computer (graphics board). DPM defines the status of signals
transmitted between the computer and monitor.

6-7. Preset Timing
The following table shows factory preset video timing (for analog signal only).
Attention
• Display position may be deviated depending on the PC connected, which may require screen adjustment using
Adjustment menu.
• If a signal other than those listed in the table is input, adjust the screen using the Adjustment menu. However,
screen display may still be incorrect even after the adjustment.
• When interlace signals are used, the screen cannot be displayed correctly even after screen adjustment using the
Adjustment menu.
