OSM (On-Screen Manager) Controls
Allow you to quickly and easily adjust all elements of your screen image
via simple to use on-sreen menus.
ErgoDesign Features
Enhance human ergonomics to improve the working environment,
protect the health of the user and save money. Examples include OSM
controls for quick and easy image adjustments, tilt/swivel pivot stand
for preferred angle of viewing, small footprint and compliance with
MPRII and TCO guidelines for lower emissions.
Pivoting Stand
Allows users to adjust the monitor to the orientation that best fits their
application, either Landscape orientation for wide documents, or portrait
orientation for the ability to preview a full page on one screen at one
time. The Portrait orientation is also perfect for full screen video
conferencing.
Plug and Play
The Microsoft solution with the Windows operating system facilitates
setup and installation by allowing the monitor to send its capabilities
(suchasscreensize and resolutions supported) directly toyourcomputer,
automatically optimizing display performance.
IPM (Intelligent PowerManager) System
Provides innovative power-saving methodes that allow the monitor to
shift to a lower power consumption level when on but not in use, saving
two-thirdsof your monitor energy cost, reducing emissions and lowering
the air conditioning cost of the workplace.
Multiple frequency Technology
Automatically adjusts monitor to the display card’s scanning frequency,
thus displaying the resolution required up to 1600 x 1200.

Recommended Use
For optimum performance, please note the following when setting up
and using the MultiSync LCD2110 colour monitor:
•DO NOT OPEN THE MONITOR. There are no user
serviceable parts inside and opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous shock hazards or other risks. Refer
all servicing to qualified service personnel.
•The optimum monitor position is facing away from direct
sunlight.
•Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that heat can
properly dissipate. Do not block ventilated openings or place
the monitor near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not put
anything on top of monitor.
•Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor
near water.
•Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they
may touch dangerous voltage points, which can be harmful or
fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.
•Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to
the cord may cause shock or fire.
•
Donot place thisproducton a sloping orunstablecart, stand ortable,
as the monitor may fall, causing serious damage to the monitor.
•Use the monitor in a clean and dry area.
•Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for
transporting.
•The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching
the system from the power supply. The monitor should be
installed close to a power outlet which is easily accessible.
•Use supplied AC Adapter.
•The inside of the fluorescent tube located within the LCD
monitor contains mercury. Please follow the bylaws or rules of
your local municipality to dispose of this tube property.

CAUTION:
•Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that heat can

anything on top of monitor.
•The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching
the system from the power supply. The monitor should be
installed close to a power outlet which is easily accessible.
•Use caution when carrying the monitor, as the compact stand
may extend automatically.
•For optimum performance, allow 20 minutes for warm-up.
•Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the monitor for long periods
of the time to avoid image persistence (after-image effects.)
•Avoid applying pressure to the LCD monitor surface.
•This MultiSync LCD monitor is integrated with OptiShield
protective glass that helps protect your valuable and potentially
fragile LCD panel.
Please note that OptiShield glass is not safety glass and is not
laminated. As with other glass, OptiShield glass may break
into sharp pieces if abused, dropped, or otherwise subjected to
a substantial shock. If OptiShield does break, please use care
to avoid injury.
MultiSync brand monitors equipped with OptiShield glass will
have a reflective surface which, under normal lighting
conditions, can cause eyestrain if viewed for long periods of
time. To avoid eyestrain, we recommend these monitors be
used in applications — such as information kiosks, industrial
plants, machinery control systems, and trading floors — where
the screens will be viewed only intermittently.
Immediatelyunplugyourmonitor from the wall outlet and refer servicing
to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
•When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
•Ifliquid has been spilled or objects have fallen intothe monitor.
•If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.
•If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet is damaged.
•Ifthemonitordoes not operate normally by following operating
instructions.

•Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for
transporting.
•This LCD monitor is designed for use with a flexible arm,
therefore it is delivered without stand. Please use the attached
screws (4pcs) when installing. To fulfil the safety requirements
the monitor must be mounted to an arm which guaranties the
necessary stability under consideration of the weight of the
monitor. The LCD monitor shall only be used with an approved
arm (e.g. GS mark).
CORRECT PLACMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE MONITOR
CAN REDUCE EYE, SHOULDER AND NECK FATIGUE. CHECK
THE FOLLOWING WHEN YOU POSITION THE MONITOR:
•Adjust the monitor height so that the top of the screen is at or
slightly below eye level. Your eyes should look slightly
downward when viewing the middle of the screen.
•Positionyour monitor no closer than 40 cm and nofurther away
than70 cm from your eyes. The optimal distance of MultiSync
LCD2110 is 61 cm.
•Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an object at least
6 m away.
•Position the monitor at a 90°angle to windows and other
light sources to minimize glare and reflections. Adjust the
monitor tilt so that ceiling lights do not reflect on your screen.
•If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your screen, use
an anti-glare filter.
•Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast control to enhance
readability.
•Use a document holder placed close to the screen.
•Positionwhatever you are looking atmostofthe time (the screen
or reference material) directly in front of you to minimize
turning your head while you are typing.
•Get regular eye checkups.

(Please consult display card or system manual to
change graphics mode.)
- Check the monitor and your display card with respect
to compatibility and recommended settings.
- Check the signal cable connector for bent or pushed-

- Check that the BNC/D-SUB button is in the correct
position.

Image persistence Image persistence is when a “ghost” of an image
remains on the screen even after the monitor has been
turned off. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’
imagepersistence is not permanent. To alleviate image
persistence,turn the monitor off for as longas an image
was displayed. If an image was on the monitor for one
hour and a ”ghost” of that image remains, the monitor
should be turned off for one hour to erase the image.
NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC
recommends using a screen saver at regular intervals
whenever the screen is idle.
