Switching Display Modes (Color Modes)

This product is preinstalled with color modes for various display purposes.

By switching the color mode according to the purpose and contents of the display, you can display images in an appropriate manner.

Color Modes

Color mode	Purpose
User1	Select either of these modes to set a user-defined display mode.
User2	Select either of these modes to set a user-defined display mode.
sRGB	This mode is suitable for matching color reproduction with peripheral devices that support sRGB, such as when printing photos taken using a digital camera.
Paper	This mode uses color tones and contrast similar to that of paper to produce a printed paper effect. It is suitable for displaying images from media such as books and documents.
Movie	This mode displays moving images brightly and with a clear-cut three-dimensional appearance. It is suitable for playing back video content.
DICOM	Select this mode to simply display digital imaging for medical based on DICOM® Part 14. "EcoView Settings" and "Color" become invalid, and cannot be adjusted or set. Note This is not intended to be used for diagnostic purposes.

Note

If a power consumption warning message appears, select "OK" to proceed to the next operation (see The message "Changes to this setting may increase power consumption." appears on the screen).
"Screen InStyle" allows you to select the color mode automatically according to the software in use.
In Paper mode, the amount of blue light emitted from the screen is reduced by changing the color tone and controlling the brightness.

Conserving Energy

This monitor is equipped with EcoView functions to enable users to conserve energy.

If you use Auto EcoView, which is one of the EcoView functions, the screen brightness is automatically adjusted according to the ambient brightness.

Note

The power saving level (Power Reduction, CO₂ Reduction, and Eco Performance Level) can be checked on the "EcoView Settings" menu. The more indicators that light up representing the Eco Performance Level, the higher the power saving level attained.
Power Reduction: the reduction in the backlight’s power consumption as a result of the adjusted brightness value.
CO₂ Reduction: converted from the "Power Reduction" value, this is an estimate of the quantity of CO₂ emissions reduced when using the monitor for one hour.
The figures are calculated based on the Emission factors by electric power company (FY2021 results, published in 2023) - TEPCO Energy Partner "Menu J (residual)" published by the Ministry of the Environment of Japan.

Auto EcoView

Settings: "On" / "Off"

The ambient light sensor on the front of the monitor detects the ambient brightness to automatically adjust the screen brightness to a comfortable level using Auto EcoView.

The power consumption of the backlight can be curtailed by adjusting the brightness to an appropriate level.

This function can also mitigate eye strain and tiredness caused by a screen that is too bright or too dark.

Note

If a power consumption warning message appears, select "OK" to proceed to the next operation (see The message "Changes to this setting may increase power consumption." appears on the screen).
Be careful not to block the ambient light sensor on the lower side of the monitor when using Auto EcoView.
Even when Auto EcoView is set to "On", you can change the brightness of the monitor using the operation switches () on the front of the monitor or in the color adjustment settings. The manner in which Auto EcoView changes the brightness will also vary depending on the value you set.
When "DICOM" is selected for the color mode, the Auto EcoView setting is turned "Off".

EcoView Optimizer 2

Settings: "On" / "Off"

The monitor automatically adjusts the screen brightness according to the white level of the input signal.

This function can reduce power consumption while maintaining the brightness specified by the input signal.

Note

If a power consumption warning message appears, select "OK" to proceed to the next operation (see The message "Changes to this setting may increase power consumption." appears on the screen).
The EcoView Optimizer 2 setting becomes "Off" in the following cases:
When "Movie" or "DICOM" is selected for the color mode
When set to "On", the appearance of pale colors may change. If this bothers you, set this function to "Off".

Adjusting the Brightness

Settings: "0" to "100"

The brightness of the screen can be adjusted to suit the installation environment or personal preference.

The screen brightness is adjusted by changing the brightness of the backlight (light source from the LCD back panel).

Note

If a power consumption warning message appears, select "OK" to proceed to the next operation (see The message "Changes to this setting may increase power consumption." appears on the screen).

Adjusting Volume

Settings: "0" to "30"

The volume of the speakers and headphones can be set individually.
