This document is the User's Manual for the NEC MultiSync E201W LCD color monitor, providing comprehensive information on its setup, operation, and maintenance.
The MultiSync E201W is a flat-screen LCD color monitor designed for various applications, from basic word processing to multimedia and gaming. It features a thin-frame design, which maximizes desktop space and delivers crisp, bright images and clear text for a comfortable viewing experience. The monitor is equipped with a tilt/swivel/pivot/height adjust base, offering flexibility in viewing preferences and enhancing human ergonomics to improve the working environment and protect user health.
For initial setup, the monitor can be easily assembled by attaching the base to the stand and then connecting the necessary cables. It supports various video input signals, including DVI digital, 15-pin mini D-SUB analog, and DisplayPort, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of computer systems. The monitor also features No-Touch Auto Adjust, which automatically optimizes image settings upon initial power-on for most timings, simplifying the setup process.
The monitor's On-Screen Display (OSD) controls, located on the front panel, provide intuitive access to various settings. These controls allow users to adjust brightness, contrast, image position, horizontal size, and fine-tuning for focus and clarity. The OSD also includes a Colour Control System with six color presets (sRGB and NATIVE) to match personal preferences. A redesigned graphical interface, accessible via the NaViSet software, allows for easier adjustment of OSD settings using a mouse and keyboard.
A key feature of the MultiSync E201W is its Auto Brightness function, which automatically adjusts the screen's brightness based on the ambient light level in the room. This function aims to provide a more comfortable viewing experience by making the monitor brighter in well-lit environments and dimmer in darker ones. Users can set the maximum and minimum brightness levels for different ambient light conditions. The monitor also includes a Dynamic Visual Mode (DV MODE) with presets like STANDARD, TEXT, MOVIE, GAMING, and PHOTO, which optimize display settings for specific content types. The DYNAMIC setting further adjusts brightness by detecting and optimizing black areas on the screen.
The MultiSync E201W incorporates an Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) System, which provides innovative power-saving methods. The monitor can shift to a lower power consumption level when idle, significantly reducing energy costs and emissions. The IPM has two settings: STANDARD, where the monitor enters power save mode when the input signal is lost, and SENSOR, where it enters power save mode when the surrounding light falls below a user-defined threshold. The LED on the front of the monitor changes to dark blue in power save mode.
Maintenance of the LCD panel and cabinet is straightforward. For the LCD panel, it is recommended to wipe it gently with a soft cloth to remove dust or dirt, avoiding hard materials or pressure. For the cabinet, a soft cloth dampened with a neutral detergent and water can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Users are cautioned against using harsh cleaning agents like benzene, thinner, or alkaline detergents, as these can damage the paint.
The manual also addresses common troubleshooting scenarios, such as no picture, unstable images, or improper sizing, providing guidance on how to resolve these issues. It highlights the phenomenon of "Image Persistence" in LCD technology, advising users to avoid displaying constant images for long periods and to turn off the monitor for an equivalent duration to alleviate residual images.
The MultiSync E201W is designed with environmental considerations in mind, as indicated by its TCO Certified label and ENERGY STAR compliance. These certifications ensure that the monitor meets strict quality and environmental requirements, including low energy consumption, restrictions on hazardous substances, and provisions for recycling. NEC Display Solutions is committed to environmental protection and offers recycling procedures for its products, emphasizing re-use, upgrading, reconditioning, or reclamation of materials. The monitor's annual typical maximum operating carbon footprint and manufacturing carbon footprint are also provided, calculated using a unique algorithm developed by NEC. The ECO Information menu on the monitor displays estimated carbon and electricity cost savings, which can be adjusted based on regional pricing and conversion factors.
Overall, the NEC MultiSync E201W is a user-friendly and environmentally conscious monitor, offering a range of features for optimal viewing comfort, energy efficiency, and easy maintenance.
