Flicker

The term “flicker” refers to noticeable shimmering that occurs when the image on the screen is redrawn (“refreshed”) too slowly. A refresh rate of 80 Hz means the image is redrawn 80 times per second. Most people will notice flicker at image refresh rates as high as 60 or 70 Hz, whereas refresh rates of 72 Hz or above usually is not noticeable. Flicker is known to be the cause of visual fatigue.

11)The image is flickering.

12)• The entire screen appears bluish or reddish.

•Color purity is not uniform.

•Misconvergence of colors. (red, green, blue)

Flicker will occur with interlaced scanning, or non-interlaced scanning with a low refresh rate. All EIZO monitors are capable of reproducing high refresh rates for non-interlaced scanning. If a problem occurs when using a non-interlaced signal, try adjusting the graphics board to increase the refresh rate (if possible). Refer to the graphics board manual for information.

The CRT is not warmed up. Allow 30 minutes for the monitor to stabilize.

Explanation of the Characteristics of CRTs

When the monitor is not fully warmed up, the screen may look slightly colored, e.g. reddish or bluish. This phenomenon is due to the unstableness of the electron gun during its warm-up period. Please wait for about 30 minutes until the monitor stabilizes in order to gain its proper color.
