LCD MONITORS:

Panel sticking and after-image lag

Avoid displaying the same images continuously

over a long period of time on the TANDBERG 7000 monitors.

Displaying the same images such as still images for a long time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the following two cases:

1. After image lagging due to remaining electrical load

When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed for more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load. The after-images remaining on the screen will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the after-images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still images and the time they had been displayed.

2. After-image lagging due to sticking

When images of the same pattern are displayed continuously for several hours or displayed for a short period of time every day, after-images may remain on the screen due to the sticking of the fluorescent materials. In this case, these images may decrease if moving images are displayed after them, but basically they will not disappear.

Solving after-image lagging problems

If you have got after-image lagging on your monitors, you can reduce the problem to an acceptable level by displaying a white image on the monitors for a few hours. This can be accomplished by focusing the camera towards a white paper and setting maximum brightness. See the ‘User Manual’ for details.

NOTE: Warranty may be invalidated if the precautions listed above are not followed.
