Planar EP6504K/EP6504K-T manual Recommended Usage, Burn-In Versus Temporary Image Retention

Page 10

Recommended Usage

16Slight pressure on the LCD will cause distortion of the image. Heavier pressure will cause permanent damage. Displays should be mounted where viewers cannot touch the screen or insert small objects in the openings that will create hazards by contacting bare conductive parts.

17The front polarizer is soft and subject to scratches from sharp objects. The polarizer is a thin sheet of film laminated to the outside layer of glass on the LCD screen. Take care when handling items near the screen.

Recommended Usage

In order to get the most out of your LCD, use the following recommended guidelines to optimize the display.

Burn-In Versus Temporary Image Retention

Burn-in causes the screen to retain an image essentially forever, with little or no way to correct the problem. Under normal use, an LCD will not experience burn-in, as plasma displays do, nor will it retain images in any way.

Normal use of an LCD is defined as displaying continuously changing video patterns or images. However, LCDs can experience temporary image retention when recommended usage guidelines are not followed.

What is Temporary Image Retention?

Temporary image retention (TIR) can occur when a static image is displayed continuously for extended periods of time (12 hours or longer). An electrical charge differential may build up between the electrodes of the liquid crystal, which causes a negative-color video image (color-inverted and brightness-inverted version of the previous image) to be retained when a new image is displayed. This behavior is true for any LCD device from any LCD manufacturer.

TIR is not covered under warranty. See standard warranty terms and conditions for details. Here are some guidelines to help you avoid TIR:

•Use the LCD to show a screen saver, moving images or still pictures that change regularly. When using high-contrast images, reposition the images frequently.

•Turn off the LCD when it is not in use. To use your source computer’s Power Options Properties, set up your computer to turn off the display when not in use.

Caution: For optimal performance, we suggest turning off the backlight power on the display for six hours per day.
