4. Daily operation
4. DAILY OPERATION
4.1 Recommendations for daily operation
Optimize the lifetime of your display
Enabling the Display Power Management System (DPMS) of your display will optimize its diagnostic life-
time by automatically switching off the backlight when the display is not used for a specified period of time.
By default, DPMS is enabled on your display, but it also needs to be activated on your workstation. To do
this, go to “Power Options Properties” in the “Control Panel”.
Barco recommends setting DPMS activation after 20 minutes of non-usage.
Use a screen saver to avoid image retention
Prolonged operation of an LCD with the same content on the same screen area may result in a form of
image retention.
You can avoid or significantly reduce the occurrence of this phenomenon by using a screen saver. You
can activate a screen saver in the “Display properties” window of your workstation.
Barco recommends setting screen saver activation after 5 minutes of non-usage. A
good screen saver displays moving content.
In case you are working with the same image or an application with static image elements for several hours
continuously (so that the screen saver is not activated), change the image content regularly to avoid image
retention of the static elements.
Understand pixel technology
LCD displays use technology based on pixels. As a normal tolerance in the manufacturing of the LCD, a
limited number of these pixels may remain either dark or permanently lit, without affecting the diagnostic
performance of the product. To ensure optimal product quality, Barco applies strict selection criteria for its
LCD panels.
To learn more about LCD technology and missing pixels, consult the dedicated white
papers available at www.barco.com/healthcare.
Enhance user comfort
Every Barco multi-head display system is color matched with the highest specifications in the market.
Barco recommends keeping color-matched displays together. Furthermore, it is impor-
tant to use all displays of a multi-head configuration at the same rate to preserve color
matching throughout the economic lifetime of the system.

4. Daily operation
Maximize quality assurance
The ’MediCal QAWeb’ system offers online service for high-grade Quality Assurance, providing maximum
diagnostic confidence and uptime.
Barco recommends to install MediCal QAWeb Agent and apply the default QAWeb policy
at least. This policy includes calibration on regular intervals. Connecting to MediCal
QAWeb Server offers even more possibilities.
Learn more and sign up for the free MediCal QAWeb Essential level at
www.barco.com/healthcare/qa.
4.2 Key indicator lights
About the key indicator lights
By default, the indicator lights of the keys will be dimmed which makes the keys unavailable at that mo-
ment. To make the keys illuminate and available for further actions touch one of the keys. As a result, all
keys will be illuminated and are now available for further actions. However, if no further actions are taken
within the following 5 seconds, the keys will dim again.
The key auto-dim function can be disabled in the OSD menus. Please refer to "Key in-
dicator lights", page 22 for detailed instructions on how to do this.
4.3 Standby switching
About standby switching
The connected power supply also provides a switch that can be used to turn the power
completely off. To use the display, please make sure to switch on this power supply.
This can be done by pushing the on/off switch on the power supply into the “│” position.
Switching on the display while it is in standby mode or vice versa can be done by:
1. Illuminate the keys as previously described.
2. While the keys are illuminated, touch the standby key for approximately 2 seconds.
As a result, the display will switch on or will switch to standby mode. When the display is switched on,
the power LED is blue. When the display is in standby mode,thepowerLEDisorange.
The power LED can be disabled in the OSD menus. Please refer to "Power status indi-
cator light", page 22 for detailed instructions on how to do this.
