Technologies

Rapid Response™

Delivers virtually uninterrupted, undistorted viewing of high-speed, full-motion video.

3D LUT

Internal 14-bit programmable 3D lookup tables (LUTs) allow the display of 1.07 billion colors out of a palette of 4.3 trillion (with 10-bit DisplayPort input) for accurate color, smooth images and hardware calibration.

CableComp™

Equalizes the video signal to eliminate color halos on long cable runs.

DisplaySync Pro

DisplaySync Pro is a type of KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) switch. It allows multiple computers to be connected to the monitor through USB and share the attached USB devices, such as a keyboard and mouse, saving desktop space and increasing productivity.

AmbiBright™

Automatically adjusts the backlight depending on the brightness of ambient lighting conditions. It also tells the monitor to enter power saving mode whenever the ambient lighting falls below a predetermined value (like when lights are shut off at the end of the day), which can significantly reduce energy consumption.

Digital Uniformity Compensation

Reduces screen uniformity errors and compensates for differences in color/grayscale and luminance using new signal processing circuitry.

MultiSync P/PA Series Picture by Picture

Displays a either second video source or the same video source in an window beside the main video source. The Picture by Picture window can display the video source in the same or an alternate color space.

MultiSync P/PA Series Picture in Picture

Displays a either second video source or the same video source in an adjustable sub-window over the main video source. The Picture in Picture window can display the video source in the same or an alternate color space

Auto Image Rotation

Automatic rotation of the displayed image based on the orientation of the monitor head

Ambix4™

Allows up to four inputs (DisplayPort, VGA and two DVI-D) to be connected to a single monitor and for each of the four signals to be displayed with the press of a button.

XtraView+™

Delivers wide viewing angles of up to 178º horizontally and vertically (up to 89º up, down, left and right) with less color shift and without any glare, reflection or distortion.
