Sharp 24/7 Desktop Operational Guidelines - Page 1

NEC Operational Guidelines NEC MultiSync® Desktop Series NEC desktop displays are designed to perform reliably over the long term. However, our desktop displays are primarily designed for standard office use, and use a variety of technologies depending on actual application and user requirements. This document provides further detailed information and recommendations for maintaining image quality. Information on 24/7 operation NEC recommends the avoidance of actual 24/7 use of desktop displays. If such use is deemed inevitable, NEC approves the following products to be used in such conditions: MultiSync® EA231WU MultiSync® EA242WU MultiSync® EA272F MultiSync® EA241F MultiSync® EA271Q MultiSync® EX241UN Recommendations for optimized 24/7 operation MultiSync® EA242F MultiSync® EA271U • Content should not be of static nature (image retention is not covered by either standard warranty nor warranty extension). • Operating temperature should be as low as possible (ideal: room temperature). • If possible, reduce brightness (reduces wear on the LCD panel and minimizes power consumption). All the aforementioned desktop display products require a maximum brightness setting of 70% to be compliant with the 24/7 warranty extension. • Where possible minimise the contrast of the content (sharp black/white contrasts should be avoided).
