LCD Panel
In order to suppress the luminosity change by long-term use and to maintain
the stable luminosity, please use the monitor with the brightness below 400
cd/m2 (equal to default setting of Brightness approximately 60 %).
The screen may have defective pixels. These pixels may appear as slightly light
or dark area on the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the panel itself,
and not the product.
The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed life span. When the screen becomes
dark or begins to flicker, please contact your dealer.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in
damage to the screen. There will be prints left on the screen if the pressed
image is dark or black. If pressure is repeatedly applied to the screen, it may
deteriorate or damage your LCD panel. Leave the screen white to decrease the
prints.
Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, such as a pencil or
pen as this may result in damage to the panel. Do not attempt to brush with

NOTE
• Do your part to conserve energy, turn off the monitor when you are finished using it.
Disconnecting the monitor from the power supply is recommended to save energy
completely.
• Even if the monitor is in a power saving mode, USB compliant devices function
when they are connected to the monitor’s USB (both the upstream and the
downstream ports). Therefore, power consumption of the monitor will change
according to the connected devices even if the monitor is in a power saving mode.

5. MAKING USE OF USB
(Universal Serial Bus)
This monitor provides a hub which supports the USB standard. When connecting to a
USB compliant PC or another hub, the monitor functions as a hub to which the USB
compliant peripherals can be easily connected.
Required system environment
• PC equipped with USB ports or another USB hub connected to the USB compliant PC
• EIZO USB Cable (MD-C93)
NOTE
• The USB hub function may not work properly depending on the PC, OS or
peripherals. Please consult the manufacturer of each device about the USB support.
• When the monitor is not on, the peripherals connected to the downstream ports will
not operate.
• Even if the monitor is in a power saving mode, the devices connected to the
monitor’s USB ports (both the upstream and the downstream) will function.
Connecting to the USB HUB
1. Connect the monitor to the PC with the signal cable (P. 13) first, and
then turn on the PC.
2. Connect the upstream port of the monitor to the downstream port of
the USB compliant PC or another hub by using the USB cable.
Upstream Ports
Upstream port:
Connect the USB compliant PC or
another hub using the USB cable.
To Downstream Ports of
the PC or Another Hub
After connecting the USB cable, the USB function can be set up automatically.

Afterimage
The Afterimage is particular to LCD monitors when the monitor screen is left on for a
long period without use. The “Afterimage” can be removed gradually by changing the
displayed image.
Clock
With the analog input signal display, the analog signal is converted to a digital signal
by the LCD circuitry. To convert the signal correctly, the LCD monitor needs to
produce the same number clock pulse as the dot clock of the graphics system. When
the clock pulse is not correctly set, some vertical bars of distortion are displayed on
the screen.
DVI
(Digital Visual Interface)
A digital flat panel interface. DVI can transmit digital data from the PC directly
without loss with the signal transition method “TMDS”.
There are two kinds of DVI connectors. One is DVI-D connector for digital signal
input only. The other is DVI-I connector for both digital and analog signal inputs.
DVI DMPM
(DVI Digital Monitor Power Management)
The Power management system for the digital interface. The “Monitor ON” status
(operation mode) and the “Active Off” status (power-saving mode) are indispensable
for the DVI-DMPM as the monitor’s power mode.
LUT
(Look-up table)
Look-up table is the compensation data, to which the monitor refers, when the
monitor outputs the input data from a graphics board. In this model, the "Default*"
adjusted beforehand referring to look-up table at a factory or "Normal", which is in
the state of the characteristic of panel original, (i.e. not adjusted) can be available.
"Custom" automatically stores the customized data after the calibration is performed.
*”Default” is adjusted with the 100 %brightness to DICOM grayscale standard.
Phase
The phase adjustment decides the sampling timing point for converting the analog
input signal to a digital signal. Adjusting the phase after the clock adjustment will
produce a clear screen.
Range Adjustment
The Range Adjustment controls the level of output signal range to display the whole
gradation (256 steps).
40 10. GLOSSARY
English
Resolution
The LCD panel consists of a fixed number of pixel elements which are illuminated to
form the screen image. The EIZO G11-S display panel consists of 1280 horizontal
pixels and 1024 vertical pixels. At a resolution of 1280 x 1024, all pixels are
displayed as a full screen.
TMDS
(Transition Minimized Differential Signaling)
A signal transition method for the digital interface
VESA DPMS
(Video Electronics Standard Association – Display Power Management Signaling)
The acronym VESA stands for “Video Electronics Standards Association”, and DPMS
stands for “Display Power Management Signaling.” DPMS is a communication
standard that PCs and graphics boards use to implement power savings on the
monitor side.
