1024 x 768

Maximum pixel rate (MHz)

110

Horizontal frequency (kHz)

30 - 61

Vertical frequency (Hz)

50 - 75


National language support is a function of the video adapter in the system unit and the application or support software.

Software Requirements:
The T55A color monitor features factory-preset and user-settable display modes. The actual display modes used depend upon the attaching system unit, the operating system, and application software.

Power Requirements:

Input voltage

90 - 260 V AC

Frequency

50 / 60 Hz

Heat dissipation (Maximum)

136 Btu/Hr

Power consumption (Maximum)

40 watts

Power consumption (Normal use)

< 40 watts typical

Power consumption (VESA Standby)

5 watts maximum

Power consumption (VESA Suspend)

5 watts maximum

Power consumption (VESA Off)

5 watts maximum

Current Leakage

Maximum:
< 3.5 mA @ 260 V
< 2.5 mA @ 100 V


Actual power consumption depends upon the chosen display mode, the images displayed, and user control settings.

Staged monitor power shutdown is controlled by the state of the H- and V-sync lines on the incoming video signal as follows:

Factory-Preset PC Display Modes:
The factory-preset modes cannot be overwritten, but can be adjusted to personal choice. The new settings are stored automatically in one of the user locations and are recalled each time that mode is used. The factory settings for the mode in use, if any, can be restored by operating the Geometry Reset/Recall control. It may be necessary to make some adjustments to the displayed image to compensate for variations in video signal timings. The user controls can be used to make these adjustments. Information about the current display mode is shown in the on-screen displays.

Ergonomics and Agency Approvals:

Acoustics:

Declared acoustical noise emissions LWAD = 3.7 Bels or less.

The noise emission level stated is the declared (upper limit) A-weighted sound power level, in Bels, for a random sample of monitors. All measurements are made in accordance with ANSI S12.10 and reported in conformance with ISO 9296.

Emissions:

All models meet the emmission category B requirements of Swedish Standard SS-436-14-90 ("MPR-3") in addition to those of MPR-2.

All models meet the Swedish Board for Technical Accreditation (SWEDAC) emission guidelines contained in MPR 1990:10 when tested using the MPR 1990:08 test method.

The monitors also meet the TCO95 Environmental Label from the Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees (TCO), and the emission, power management, and electrical safety requirements of the TCO95 Environmental Label.

Ergonomics:

Compliance to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 13406 Pt 2 for improved ergonomics and image quality is provided when the monitor forms part of an ISO-compliant system.

OSD Controls
Digital user controls are located on the front bezel, to the left of the power on/off pushbutton. Adjustments are made in conjunction with the on-screen displays. After adjustments are made, the controls can be locked to prevent further changes. With exception of Brightness & Contrast all the controls are lockable.

Indicators
The power indicator LED indicates the operational state of the monitor:

Indicator

T55A Operating State

Power Use

Steady green

Normal operation

<40 Watts

Steady amber

DPMS - Standby state

< 5 Watts

Amber blink @ 0.5Sec

DPMS - Suspend state

< 5 Watts

Amber blink @ 1.0Sec

DPMS - Off state

< 5 Watts


A 'No Connection / Check signal cable' message appears in the OSD whenever the monitor detects no incoming video signal. Whenever the monitor detects a video signal that is outside its operating range the LED will flash at a rate, specified in the "User Guide" to indicate that there is a problem.

Limitations:

Supported display modes are a function of the attaching system unit. The full range of display modes available with these monitors may not be available or supported with all combinations of system units, their operating systems, and application software.

Horizontal and vertical sync signal timings are critical in order to achieve acceptable screen images. As a consequence, support for all possible variations in H- and V-sync timings for any display mode cannot be assumed.

Adjustment of the user controls to enlarge the image to its maximum size requires that the signal timings of the display mode being used fall within the monitor timing specifications.

The number of colors shown in any display mode (max = 16.7 million) is not limited by the monitor, but depends upon the capabilities of the video adapter in the system unit.

The T55A provides FCC class B - residential installation - compliance in all display modes

Implementation of monitor power management follows the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS) standard. This standard must also be implemented in the attaching system unit hardware and software for monitor power management to be effective. The system implementation must provide user-adjustable, power-down delay periods. The monitor power management function is invoked only after appropriate signals are received from an attached system unit or video adapter.

Implementation of monitor Plug and Play follows the VESA Display Data Channel (DDC) standard. This standard must also be implemented in the attaching system unit hardware and software for monitor Plug and Play to be effective.

Certain functions require the system unit to be similarly configured, so all monitor functions may not be enabled when attached to a particular system unit.
