Overview Overview Introduction The MFGD 3420, BARCO’s 20” 3 megapixel grayscale LCD display, guarantees perfect image quality in medical imaging applications. The display combines a TFT (thin film transistor) liquid crystal display panel structure and a built-in backlight with inverter for a better picture quality. It is designed to meet the users’ needs for performance, consistency, and outstanding image quality through a streamlined development process.
Overview Power saving (DPMS) The MFGD 3420 is equipped with a power saving system. When left idle for a certain time, the computer connected to the display, will power down the display. The power saving system can be switched on or off using the on-screen menus. This system requires a computer imaging board that supports power saving management. Package contents The package should include the following items, please check.
Overview Controls and connectors 1 Figure 5 Front (1) Power LED • The LED is off when the display is off. • The LED is green when the display is on (when enabled in the on-screen menus). • The LED is orange when the display is in Stand-by powersaving mode.

Installation Installation Precautions • Keep your original packaging. It is designed for this display and is the ideal protection during transport. • Avoid reflections in the flat panel to reduce eye strain. • Place the display on a strong and stable table or desk. • Keep the display away from heat sources and provide enough ventilation in case it is built in a rack or console. • Make sure all equipment is switched off before connecting the signals.
Installation To remove the clip: 1. Position the display with its rear side facing you. 2. Lift up the 2 clips of the foot cover to release the cover from the foot. 3. Pull the lower side of the cover towards you and simultaneously slide the cover downward. 4. Pull the red clip out of the fixation holes in the foot. You can better leave the cover off the foot while connecting the signal cables to the display.
Installation Figure 9 Should you change the panel orientation without tilting it first, you might irreversibly damage the tilt & swivel mechanism. 3. To change from portrait to landscape, turn the panel counterclockwise while tilting it slightly. 4. To change from landscape to portrait, turn clockwise. Connecting the cables To get access to the connectors, open the cover of the connector compartment by pulling down the 2 clips of the cover. The signal cables can be routed inside the display foot.
Installation To connect the power: Connect to DC input of the display Connect one end of power cable Figure 10 1. Connect the output of the 12V DC power supply to the DC input (7) of the display. 2. Connect one end of the proper power cable to the AC input of the 12V DC power supply. 3. Connect the other end of the power cord to a grounded power outlet. 4. Route the cable so that it enters the connector compartment at the place where the cover is bulged.
Installation Connector compartment Push the upper side of the cover onto the foot Signal cables routed under foot cover Figure 11 1. Push the upper side of the cover onto the foot, so that the hooks on the cover are positioned right under the holes in the foot. 2. Slide the cover upward while moving the lower side of the cover towards the foot. 3. Press the cover to the foot so that both clips make a clicking sound.
Installation Tilt and swivel positioning Adjust the position of the panel for best viewing conditions. The display foot allows adjusting the horizontal viewing angle, vertical viewing angle and panel height. Figure 12 Starting up Proceed as follows: 30 1. Switch on the signal source (E.g., PC). 2. If necessary, select a suitable resolution or signal format for the signal source.
How to avoid image retention How to avoid image retention Image retention (image sticking, ghost image) is the phenomenon where an image, or a part of it, seems to be ‘burnt’ in the LCD panel. When you display e.g. a uniform light gray image you distinguish the ghost image in the background. This phenomenon occurs on all types of LCD panels when a static image remains on the screen for a long time (unfortunately the exact period is not predictable). Also parts of the image that do not change often (e.g.
How to avoid image retention To activate appropriate screen saving, proceed as follows: 1. In the display OSD menus, open the Settings menu and switch DPMS on. For more information, please consult the display operation chapter. 2. In Windows, open the Display control panel. Open the Screen Saver tab. 3. Select a screen saver from the Screen saver drop-down box. 4. Set the Wait time to 10 minutes. 5. Click the button Power... The Power Options Properties dialog opens. 6.

BarcoMed control panel settings Single Source Master correctly with 8-bit (256-color) modes should continue to work normally. Note: Ditherng is not used while in this mode. Also, direct access to the hardware through DirectDraw is not allowed in this mode. User Modifiable Color Palette This option allows applications to modify the palette contents dynamically.
Windows graphics device interface (GDI). DirectDraw is enabled by default. More information about DirectDraw is available through the online help. Enable Dithering This option allows the user to enable or disable dithering. Dithering is a technique for increasing the perceived range of colors in an image at the cost of spatial resolution. Note: This option is only available when the User Modifiable Palette mode is selected.
BarcoMed control panel settings Single Source Master results in increased performance since the frame buffer is set to run with 8-bit pixels. While this option may be used with applications that normally require 10-bit support, there will be a loss of pixel depth, i.e. 256 shades of gray instead of 1024 simultaneous shades of gray. Disable RGB To Static Gray Color Translation Select Disable RGB To Static Gray Color Translation if you wish to have RGB values equally weighted, with 1/3 each.
