Image Persistence: Image persistence occurs when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the

screen. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but a still image being displayed for a long

period of time should be avoided.

To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image was displayed. For example, if an image

was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to erase the image.

NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS recommends using a moving screen saver at regular

intervals whenever the screen is idle, or turn off the monitor when not in use.

The [HUMAN SENSING] has following two settings:

MODE HUMAN฀SENSING฀SETTINGNo person in front of the monitor

LIGHT 1 BRIGHTNESS 0%

DEEP 2 Power saving mode

Image of human sensing operation

A. When the sensor detects no person in front of the monitor, the monitor stays on for the period of time which is set at

[HUMAN฀SENSING]฀>฀[START฀TIME]฀(see฀

page 15).

B. The monitor displays a notiﬁcation on the screen after the period of time with no human detected has passed.

You can set the notiﬁcation screen at [SENSOR INFORMATION] (see

page 18).

C. After displaying the notiﬁcation, if [LIGHT] is set at [HUMAN SENSING], the monitor screen gets gradually darker until it gets

to 0% brightness.

If [DEEP] is set at [HUMAN SENSING], the monitor enters into power saving mode.

D. When the sensor detects a person coming back, the monitor is automatically returned from power saving mode to normal

mode.

NOTE: When [LIGHT] is set at [HUMAN SENSING], the monitor screen gets gradually brighter as it returns to the original

brightness.

E. The monitor returns to normal mode.

Using the Auto Brightness function

The brightness of the LCD screen can be set to increase or decrease depending on the amount of ambient lighting within the

room. If the room is bright, the monitor becomes correspondingly bright. If the room is dim, then the monitor will dim accordingly.

The purpose of this function is to make the viewing experience more comfortable to the eye in a variety of lighting conditions.

SETUP

Use the following procedures to select the brightness range the monitor will use when the [AUTO BRIGHTNESS] function is

activated.

1. Set a level for the bright room condition. This is the maximum brightness level the monitor will rise to when the ambient

lighting level is highest. Conﬁgure this setting when the room is at its brightest.

Select [ON] in the [AUTO BRIGHTNESS] menu (Figure 1). Then use the front Keys to move the cursor up to the

[BRIGHTNESS] setting. Choose the desired brightness level (Figure 2).

Figure 1 Figure 2

2. Set a level for the dark room condition. This is the minimum brightness level the monitor will lower to when the ambient

lighting level is low. Make sure the room is at its darkest when setting this level.

Then use the front Keys to move the cursor up to the [BRIGHTNESS] setting. Choose the desired brightness level

(Figure 3).

Figure 3

When the [AUTO BRIGHTNESS] function is enabled the Brightness level of the screen changes automatically according to the

lighting conditions of the room (Figure 4).
