Introduction
Thank you for choosing Barco.
Single display or complete system?
This manual describes installation and usage of a complete NIO system.
A NIO system is a bundling of one or more displays and one or more
display controllers.
However, if you have purchased the display only instead of a NIO
system, please refer to the chapters in this manual covering the display,
and disregard the information about the display controller or NIOWATCH
software.

The E-2620 (S) is a 19.8-inch grayscale LCD display with a native
resolution of 1600 x 1200.
The E-2621 is a 21.3-inch grayscale LCD display with a native resolution
of 1600 x 1200.
The E-3620 is a 20.8-inch grayscale LCD display with a native resolution
of 2048 x 1536.
The E-3621 is a 21.3-inch grayscale LCD display with a native resolution
of 2048 x 1536.
The E-5620 is a 20.1-inch grayscale LCD display with a native resolution
of 2560 x 2048.

viewing angle, makes them ideal for a multitude of medical
applications and environments.

Introduction
20 Nio systems
Long-term stabilization
The displays contain a Backlight Output Stabilization system (BLOS©),
which continuously stabilizes the luminance output of the LCD’s
backlight. This improves the overall optical efficiency and provides long-
term image confidence.
NioWatch
In NIO systems, the display comes standard with NIOWATCH, a user-
friendly software tool that optimizes the LCD panel for DICOM-compliant
viewing.
Power saving
The displays are equipped with a power saving system. When left idle
for a certain time, the computer connected to the display, will power
down the display.
The power saving system can be switched on or off using the on-screen
menus.
Tilt & swivel base
The versatile tilt & swivel foot allows to use the display for viewing
portrait or landscape image resolutions.
The user can easily change the panel height and viewing angle,
allowing to use the display in the optimal viewing conditions.
