PRODUCT INFORMATION (Image Retention Free)
LCD Monitors and TVs may have image retention when switching from one image to another
especially after displaying a stationary image for a long time.
This guide is to demonstrate correct usage of LCD products in order to protect them from Image
retention.
What is Ima
g
e retention ?
During normal operation of a LCD panel, pixel image retention doesn't occur. However,
if the same image is displayed for a long time, a slight difference in electric charge
accumulates between the two electrodes which encase the liquid crystal. This may
cause the liquid crystal to build up in a certain areas of the display. Thus, the previous
image is retained when switching to a new video image. All display products, including
LCD,are subject to image retention. This is not a product defect.
Please follow the suggestions below to protect your LCD from image retention
Power Off, Screen Saver, or Power Save Mode
Ex)
zTurn the power off when using a stationary pattern.
zUse a Screen saver if possible
zSet the Monitor to power off with the PC Display Properties Power Scheme.
- Turn the power off for 4 hours after 24 hours in use
- Turn the power off for 2 hours after 12 hours in use
- Screen saver in one color or a moving image is recommended.

Image retention may not occur when a LCD panel is operated under normal conditions.
Normal conditions are defined as continuously changing video patterns. When the LCD
panel is operated for a long time with a fixed pattern (-over 12 hours-), there may be
slight difference in voltage between electrodes that work the liquid crystal (LC) in a
pixel. The voltage difference between electrodes increases with time, forcing the liquid
crystal to lean. When this occurs, the previous image may be seen when the pattern is
changed.
To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference must be decreased.
Our LCD Monitor satisfies ISO13406-2 Pixel fault Class II

Features
What is a Tablet Monitor?
A Graphics Drawing Tablet is used for sketching new images or tracing existing images. The user
makes contact with the tablet using a wired or wireless pen or puck.
If a user draws a drawing with a pen or puck, the screen pointer draws the corresponding image.
Since a puck can pinpoint the edge or terminal precisely using the cross hairs viewable through the
transparent lens, it is preferred by users who draw precise scientific drawings. The tablet may be
custom made so that the buttons are located on the exterior and the user can select menus and
functions by pressing the buttons.
When the user draws a drawing or traces an image with the tablet, a series of x and y coordinates
representing the intermediate or terminal points are recorded. The tablet is also called a Graphics
Tablet, a Digitizer Tablet or an Electronic Tablet.
Product Features
A monitor which provides the tablet function that enables users to open the graphics tool on the
screen and directly draw images or letters on the screen.
Easy switching between the tablet and a general monitor.
A double folding stand to provide the optimal environment for using both the tablet and the monitor.
D-Sub Out port support for connecting directly with a projector or a wide screen display device.
MagicContrast : Supports a contrast of up to 700:1 for deeper color tones.
MagicSpeed : Offers aclear image with no afterimages by supporting a fast response rate of 8 ms.
MagicStand : Allowsusers to adjust the height of the monitor for user convenience.
