Ultra-Thin Bezels On All Four Sides The monitor features 1 mm ultra-slim bezels on the sides and top with black borders of 4.3 mm. Electrostatic switches are placed on the front of the monitor for easy adjustment of monitor settings. Furthermore the bezels are flush with the screen surface making a completely flat screen perfect for multi-monitor configurations. Flicker-Free Viewing Due to the way brightness is controlled on LED backlights a small number of people perceive flicker on their screen which causes eye fatigue. The FlexScan EV series utilizes a hybrid solution to regulate brightness and make flicker unperceivable without any drawbacks like compromising color stability even on low brightness settings. Auto Brightness Control To prevent eye fatigue a brightness sensor called Auto EcoView detects the changes in the ambient brightness that occurs throughout the day and automatically adjusts the screen to the ideal brightness level. Smooth Color Gradations The monitor produces smooth image display by taking an 8-bit signal (256 tones per RGB) and selecting the optimum color values from a 10-bit look-up table (1021 tones). Also each monitor is adjusted on the factory line to minimize variability between units. Maximum Energy Savings The FlexScan EV2456 typically consumes just 11 watts earning it the EU Energy Label maximum rating of A++. What’s more all models are certified for visual ergonomics and energy savings. Significantly Reduce Blue Light In the visible light spectrum blue light has wave lengths adjacent to ultraviolet light. Compared to the factory preset setting of 6500 K of typical LCD monitors Paper Mode is closer to the spectral distribution with long reddish wavelengths so it reduces the amount of blue light a cause of eye fatigue and helps prevent eyestrain when reading documents. 1% - 100% Brightness Range In a dimly-lit work environment a monitor with low brightness settings is more comfortable to use. With its LED backlight the monitor is adjustable to 1 cd/m which is less than 1% of the maximum. Clear View from All Angles The monitor uses an LED-backlit IPS (in-plane switching) LCD panel with 178 viewing angle that minimizes color shift and contrast changes when viewing the screen at an angle. This means that two people sitting at the one computer can easily see the screen and it also makes the EV2456 perfect for multi-monitor configurations. White on White The aesthetically-pleasing design of the monitor extends even to the cables. White cables come bundled with the white cabinet; and black cables with the black cabinet version of the FlexScan EV2456. Additionally the optional Cable Cover removes the potential eyesore of tangled cables by holding them neatly behind the stand. New Stand Design The EV2456 comes with our latest stand design. It boasts greater height adjustment and due to the tilted design has a base 43 mm smaller than previous stands giving you more space at your work station. Furthermore the stand comes attached in the box simply pull it out plug it in no stand setup required. Screen InStyleTM EIZOs Screen InStyle is a newly developed software that allows you to easily manage multiple monitor settings such as power color brightness and gamma. But what makes Screen InStyle truly unique is that it allows you to manage multiple connected monitors from the one place meaning that settings placed on one monitor will automatically be set to all connected monitors. EIZO Monitor Configuration for Administrators EIZO Monitor Configurator lets system administrators control the settings of all FlexScan EV monitors with a USB connection. The settings of one monitor can be saved as an xml file and applied to other monitors via USB or office network. LED Backlights - Less Power Longer Life Compared to CCFL backlights LED backlights last longer and consume less power. They are also mercury-free for minimal environmental impact. 5-Year Warranty A manufacturers 5-year warranty covers all components including the LCD panel to ensure a long service life. This warranty is 2-years or 67% longer than the standard 3-year warranty of most monitor brands for significantly lower running costs.
