Fujitsu L20t 1 Eco Getting Started Manual

							
Edition 2 English - 1 
Introduction
This manual contains important information for correct set-up of your LCD monitor.  
A screen controller with VGA interface is required to control the LCD monitor. The monitor pro\
cesses 
the data supplied to it by the screen controller. The screen controller/the associated driver soft\
ware 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.

Important notes 
!
In this chapter you will find information regarding safety which is essential to take note of 
with your monitor. 
Safety notes 
This device complies with the relevant safety regulations for data processing equipment, including 
electronic office machines for use in an office environment. If you have any questions, contact your 
sales outlet or our help desk. 

”  The display surface of the LCD monitor is sensitive to pressure and scratches. You should 
therefore be careful with the display surface so as to avoid lasting damage (Newton rings, 
scratches).

”   If the device is brought into the installation site from a cold environment, condensation can form. 
Before operating the device, wait until it is absolutely dry and has reached approximately the 
same temperature as the installation site. 

”   To ensure sufficient ventilation, the intake and exhaust air openings of\
 the monitor must never 
be blocked. 

”   The monitor automatically sets itself to a mains voltage in the range of 100 V to 240 V. Ensure 
that the local mains voltage lies within these limits. 

”   Ensure that the power socket on the device or the grounded mains outlet is freely accessible. 

”   The ON/OFF switch does not disconnect the device from the mains voltage. To completel\
y 
disconnect the mains voltage, remove the power plug from the socket. 

”   The monitor is equipped with a power cable that complies with safety standards. 

”   Lay all cables so that nobody can stand on them or trip over them. When attaching the device, 
observe the relevant notes in the "Connecting the monitor" chapter. 

”   If you use a different data cable from the one supplied, ensure that it is a\
dequately shielded. 
CE conformance and optimum picture quality are guaranteed only if you use the data cable 
supplied.

”   No data transfer cables should be connected or disconnected during a thunderstorm. 

”   Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewellery chains, paper clips, etc.) or liquids get inside the 
device (danger of electric shock, short circuit). 

”   The device is not waterproof! Never immerse the device in water and protect it from spray 
water (rain, sea water). 

”   In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, elements or cables, penetration of\
 liquids or foreign 
matter), switch off the unit, disconnect the power plug and contact your sales outlet or our help 
desk.

”  The monitor must be disposed of in accordance with the local regulations for disposal of 
special waste. The screen background lighting contains mercury. You must observe the 
applicable handling and disposal safety regulations for fluorescent tubes. 

”   Only qualified technicians should repair the device. Unauthorised opening and incorrect repair 
may greatly endanger the user (electric shock, fire risk). 

”   Use a screen saver with moving images and activate the power management for your monitor 
to prevent still images from "burning in". 

”   The screen may only be operated in the wide format (0° landscape mode). Turning with a 
swivel arm or wall bracket mounted is not permitted. 

”   Store this manual close to the device. If you pass the device on to third parties, you should 
pass this manual on with it. 

”   We recommend that you place your device on a durable, non-slip surface. In view of the many 
different surface coatings and finishes used on furniture, it is possibl\
e that the feet of the device 
could mark the surface they stand on. 
Power cable 
To guarantee safe operation, use the cable supplied. Use the following guidelines if it is necessary to 
replace the original cable set. 

”  The female/male receptacles of the cord set must meet IEC60320/CEE-22 re\
quirements. 

”   The cable has to be HAR-certified or VDE-certified. The mark HAR or VDE \
will appear on the 
outer sheath. 

”   For devices which are mounted on a desk or table, type SVT or SJT cable sets may be used. 

”   The cable set must be selected according to the rated current for your device. 

”   If necessary, replace the original power cable with a regular grounded 3-core mains lead. 
Transport

”  Transport the monitor with care and only in its original packaging or another corresponding 
packaging fit to protect it against knocks and jolts. 

”   Never drop the LCD monitor (danger of glass breakage).

the AUTO button - if present - or via the OSD menu). 

y   Correctly set the contrast and brightness with the

Permanently unlit or lit pixels 
The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen 
display. A few isolated constant lit or unlit pixels may be present. The maximum permitted number of 
pixels faults is stipulated in the stringent international standard ISO 13406-2 (Class II). 
Example: A 17"/19" flat-screen monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 has 1280 x 1024 = 1310720 
pixels. Each pixel consists of three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are almost 4 million 
subpixels (or dots) in total. According to ISO 13406-2 (Class II), a maximum of 6 pixels and 7 
subpixels may be defective, i. e. a total of 25 defective dots. 
A 22" wide flat-screen monitor with a resolution of 1680 x 1050 has 1680 x 1050 = 1764000 pixels. 
Each pixel consists of three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there\
 are almost 5 million subpixels 
(or dots) in total. In accordance with ISO 13406-2 (Class II), a maximum of 8 pixels and an additional 
10 subpixels may be defective.
