Overview

The BARCO MGD 2621 P is a high-resolution greyscale portrait display. Its outstanding visual performance, combining a 2 MegaPixel resolution with a very high brightness, makes it ideal for medical imaging and many other medical and scientific applications.

The MGD 2621 P is compatible with any AC power system worldwide and automatically synchronises to a wide range of sync frequencies. Its high-speed video amplifier supports pixel clocks up to 250 MHz.

The internal memory system can contain the adjustments for 4 different scanning formats, the so-called scanning modes. Each scanning format is characterized by its sync signals. The display’s internal micro controller continuously samples the connected sync signals and compares them to the scanning modes already stored in the memory. If the connected signal has already been stored, the micro controller adapts the image to the corresponding adjustment values in the mem- ory, and further adjustments are unnecessary.

Image conformity and consistency are the keywords. In our factory, the MGD 2621 P displays are perfectly adjusted and calibrated before they are shipped to the customer. Internal circuits, like the TrueGrey® and Automatic White Stability (AWS) systems, ensure display consistency over time.

Conformity with the original image quality is guaranteed by the automatic calibration, which can be done by means of an optical sensor, connected to the Sensor connector on the display. The sensor is not supplied with the display.
