Kodak DV3MC user manual Reference, DDC*1, Power Management, Using Digital Input

Reference

DDC*1

This unit has loaded a function compliant with DDC-2B, a VESA standard.

This function reads into the set data written in the color LCD monitor internal device in advance on startup of Windows 95/98/Me/2000 or Windows XP and sets the detailed information of the color LCD monitor in the system file in order to achieve Plug&Play.

Data reading from the color LCD monitor is done through a video signal cable, which needs to be connected when Windows 95/98/Me/2000 or Windows XP is on.

Note *1DDC(Display Data channel)

Power Management

What is power management?

This is the function that truns off the screen by detecting input signal change to reduce consumption current for power saving.

Setting

Refer to the user's manuals of your computer and display drivers for power management settings and time-settings for mode change.

Using Digital Input

When using DVI digital input signal, under the process of closing connected system or changing resolution, noise will be seen. This is not a color LCD monitor failure. Pulling out or plugging into the DVI cable during DVI digital input use may lead to failure of the display driver on the system. Pull out or plug into the DVI cable when the system is off.

Adjustments of Luminance and Chromaticity

DV3MC does not have an OSD (adjustment button). If you need to make adjustments on luminance and shades of color, connect DV3MC and your computer with the attached serial communication cable (RS-232C) and install “DirectColorCal.”

* For details, refer to the user’s manual in the DirectColorCal CD-ROM.

If you wish to make adjustments on color temperature, gamma, and luminance, please purchase an optional calibration kit.
