This operating manual contains important information you require to start up and run your LCD
monitor.
A screen controller with VGA interface is required to control the SCENICVIEW A17-2A / A19-2ALCD
monitor. The monitor processes the data supplied to it by the screen controller. The screen
controller/the associated driver software is responsible for setting the modes (resolution and refresh
rate).
When putting the monitor into operation for the first time, the screen display should be optimally
adapted to the screen controller used and adjusted in accordance with your needs (see Changing
the monitor settings.
Target group
You don't need to be an "expert" to perform the operations described here. Do, however, read the
"Important notes" chapter in the operating manual of the computer and in this operating manual.
In the event of any problems occurring, please contact your sales outlet or our help desk.
Additional information
Details of how you set the resolution and refresh rate are provided in the documentation on your
screen controller/the associated driver software.

Energy Star Guidelines
The Fujitsu Siemens LCD colour monitor is designed to conserve electricity
by dropping to less than 1 W when it goes into standby, suspend and OFF
mode. With this new power management the monitor qualifies for the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Energy Star Computers award.
The EPA estimates that computer equipment uses 5 % percent of all business electricity and that
this is growing rapidly. If all desktop computers and peripherals enter a low-power mode when not in
use, the overall savings in electricity could amount to $ 2 thousand million annually. These savings
could also prevent the emission of 20 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere - the
equivalent of 5 million automobiles.
As an Energy Star Partner, Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH has determined that this product
meets the Energy Star guidelines for energy efficiency.
CE marking
The shipped version of this device complies with the requirements of the EEC directives
89/336/EEC "Electromagnetic compatibility" and 73/23/EEC "Low voltage directive".

Notes on power management
If your computer is equipped with power management, the monitor can support this function fully.
Here the monitor does not distinguish between the individual energy-saving modes of the computer
(standby mode, suspend mode and OFF mode), as it is capable of immediately switching into the
mode with the highest energy-saving effect.
Stage ON Power-Saving Mode
Power indicator lights up blue lights up orange
Function the monitor is working
normally
the screen is dark
Power consumption normal < 40 W (17")
normal < 50 W (19")
reduced to < 1 W
If your computer detects inactivity (no input) it sends an appropriate signal to the monitor to reduce
the power consumption (energy-saving mode). The power indicator of the monitor changes colour to
indicate the status change.
Once an input is made at the computer the screen contents are redrawn and full power is restored.
For detailed information on how energy-saving mode operates refer to the operating manual or
technical manual of the computer.
i
When the monitor is switched to the energy-saving mode by the power management
system a power consumption of up to 1 W is maintained to feed the circuit for redrawing
the screen contents.
To completely switch off the power consumption, switch off the computer or pull the plug of
the monitor power cable out of the monitor socket of the computer.
