OpenGL and Direct3D
The OpenGL and Direct3D pages of the Advanced Properties page are
divided into two sections: Main Settings and Custom Settings.
Main Settings
In the Main Settings section there is a slider bar which allows the user
to adjust the OpenGL or Direct 3D settings for optimum performance,
optimum quality or a for a point in between. There is also a checkbox
provided for enabling Custom Settings.
59
BARCO MXRT control panel settings
Custom Settings
Note: Barco recommends that you use the default settings,
unless your viewing application vendor provides detailed
information on custom settings.
In the Custom Settings section the user can fine tune the following
options:
• Anisotropic filtering
• SMOOTHVISION
• Texture preference
• Mipmap detail level
• Wait for Vertical Sync
Anisotropic Filtering
Anisotropic filtering is a technique that preserves detail on surfaces
that have three-dimensional perspective and fade away into the
background. It works best when used in conjunction with
Mipmapping.
Anisotropic filtering can be set to favor either an increase in system
processing performance or improved image quality.
• If you are unsure how to configure anisotropic filtering, use
the Application Preference option. Your display will
automatically adjust to the application’s requirements.
Please refer to the on-line help for more information on using
advanced features such as Anisotropic Filtering.
SMOOTHVISION
The Advanced Settings tab enables you to apply ATI’s SMOOTHVISION
technology for full-scene anti-aliasing. SMOOTHVISION improves
image quality by removing jagged edges (anti-aliasing) from 3D
images, resulting in smoother, more natural looking objects.
Please refer to the on-line help for more information on using
advanced features such as SMOOTHVISION.
60
BARCO MXRT control panel settings
Texture preference
This slider enables you to select the texture quality level.
• Maximize overall performance by moving the slider to the
left.
• Enhance overall image quality by moving the slider to the
right.
Wait for Vertical Sync:
• For OpenGL the default setting is Default Off.
• For Direct3D the default setting is Application Preference.
Please refer to the on-line help for more information on using
advanced features such as Wait for Vertical Sync.
Mipmap detail level
Mipmapping is a texturing technique that preserves the detail on a 3D
object’s surface as it moves into the background. A series of high- and
low-resolution texture maps are stored in memory and selectively
used to create the object’s surface, depending on what level of detail
is needed.
Please refer to the on-line help for more information on using
advanced features such as Mipmap Detail Level.
Device details
The Device Details page provides detailed information about the
display controller connected to the active display. This information is
useful in debugging issues that may occur when using your BARCO E-
2320 C Display(s).
Configuration
The Configuration page enables you to customize display profiles for
individual applications. Typically, you would change these settings for
one or more of the following reasons:
61
BARCO MXRT control panel settings
• Diagnostic purposes.
• Fine-tuning a specific application/system configuration.
• Specific settings recommended by your hardware or software
documentation.
• Tuning your application/system environment for best
performance and memory usage.
Activating a configuration profile
The Configuration Profiles listbox displays a number of common
applications whose optimal configuration profile are factory-set by
default.
To activate a particular profile, select the application name from the
list and click Apply. This will add the information to the necessary
Windows registry settings. If prompted, restart Windows.
If you subsequently experience problems with your application, or if
you want to try to optimize the performance of your system on
specific applications, modify your configuration settings accordingly.
Adding a new application profile
Click the Add button in the Configuration Profiles section and enter the
name of the new application for which you want to set the
configuration parameters.
Modifying the configuration parameters
To change the configuration settings of a specific application, select
the name of that application from the Configuration Profiles listbox.
Click the Modify button. Now select or clear the rest of the
62
BARCO MXRT control panel settings
configuration controls on this tabbed dialog to obtain the desired
display parameters for the selected application.
To remove the selected configuration profile completely, select the
name of the application from the Configuration Profiles listbox click
Delete.
Note: You cannot delete the factory-set configuration profiles.
Click the Apply or OK button to enable your Configuration settings.
Barco
The Barco page allows you to switch between True Color Mode
(32-bit) and 256 Color Mode (8-bit). Use the 256 Color Mode (8-bit) if
your application requires a specific grayscale palette mode such as
User Modifiable Color Palette, Static Gray Palette, or Static Gray Palette
with NO system colors. Otherwise use the True Color Mode (32-bit).
When the 256 Color Mode is enabled you can select one of three
palette modes:
User Modifiable Color Palette: This option allows applications to
modify the palette contents dynamically. This mode reserves the
first 10 and last 10 entries in the palette for the Windows
operating system, but applications can manipulate the middle
236 entries. This is the standard palette mode as configured by
Windows.
Static Gray Palette including standard system colors: This option sets
the palette to be a static linear set of 236 gray values. The .
Applications are denied the ability to dynamically change or
allocate palette entries.
Static Gray Palette with NO system colors: This option sets the
palette to be a static linear ramp of 256 shades of gray.
Applications are denied the ability to dynamically change or
allocate palette entries.
Please refer to the on-line help for more information on using
advanced features such as the different palette modes available when
using the 256 Color Mode.
63
BARCO MXRT control panel settings
Configuring the Windows desktop
Note: If you are using a color display in conjunction with your
Barco grayscale display(s) you should configure your desktop
before setting the resolution of your Barco grayscale display(s).
You must have logged on to Windows using an account with
administrator privileges in order to use the Barco portions of the
Windows Display Control Panel to change any display settings.
The recommended configuration for best grayscale image quality
when using a color display in conjunction with your high-resolution
grayscale display(s) is to set the color display as the primary monitor
of the Windows desktop. Then set the colors setting on the “Settings”
tab of the Windows Display Control Panel to the highest possible color
depth (e.g. 32 bits-per-pixel “true color”) supported by the color
display’s controller.
The colors setting for your high-resolution grayscale displays should
default to 256 colors (8 bits per pixel). You should set the palette
mode for the your high-resolution grayscale displays to Static Gray
palette with NO system colors. This guarantees that the all of the 256
gray levels available for GDI graphics will be present. This also
eliminates the danger that colors will change when focus moves
among different applications.
However, if you are using the Color to Gray Compatibility palette
mode, the color setting for your high-resolution grayscale displays
should default to True Color (32 bits per pixel). Even though this
palette mode supports 32 bit True Color, Barco recommends that
when using a using a color display in conjunction with your high-
resolution grayscale display(s) that you still set the color display as
the primary monitor of the Windows desktop.

Precautions
• Take care not to damage or scratch the front filter or LCD
panel. Be careful with rings or other jewelry that can touch
the front filter.
• Do not apply pressure on the front filter or LCD panel.
• Do not apply or spray liquid directly to the front filter, panel or
cabinet as excess liquid may cause damage to internal
electronics. Instead, apply the liquid to the cleaning cloth.
Proceed as follows:
• Clean the cabinet using a soft cotton cloth, lightly moistened
with a recognized cleaning product for medical equipment.
• Repeat with water only.
• Wipe dry with a dry cloth.
• The cabinet has been tested for resistance to the following
products:
• Cidex, Betadine
• Alcohol (Isopropyl and Ethyl)
• Ammonia-based cleaners (Windex)
• Aquasonic Gel
To clean the LCD panel:
• Dust particles on the LCD panel may be blown away by using a
dust remover. E.g., DUST OFF 67 (KONTAKT Chemie).
A dust remover is composed of a blend of compressed liquid
gases functioning as propellant. They provide a jet of dry inert
gas that acts like compressed air for a quick and safe removal of
dust particles and other dry contaminants on the surface of the
lcd panel or the glass panel.
83
Cleaning
Attention: The dust remover contains a liquid gas. If you shake
the can or move the can too fast while spraying, you may blow
drops of liquid on the panel surface!
If this is the case, clean the panel as described below.
• If the LCD panel is dirty or wet, clean the panel using a lint-
free, nonabrasive cloth, lightly moistened with a solution of
25% Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) and 75% de-ionized or distilled
water. E.g.: Cleareen, a product of Certified Laboratories.
In case you do not dispose of these products, use plain water
instead.
• Take another clean, dry, soft, lint-free cloth and gently wipe
the glass dry.

The previous image
remains slightly visible
on the screen
This phenomenon, called “image
sticking” is normal if the same
image has been on the screen for a
long time. The ghost image will
disappear after some time.
Over 10 hours operation with the
same image content is not
recommended. Switching on DPMS
on display and PC and activating a
good screen saver may decrease the
risk of image sticking (image
retention).
•
A slight case of image sticking can
be solved by continuously displaying
a full white image during a number
of hours.

Problem description
Possible tests or solutions
On a dual-head system,
the images on the left
and right display seem to
be switched
•
Switch the video cables at the
display controller or at the display
video inputs
Note: What if the graphic board resolution is too low
Some non-Barco graphic boards (e.g., single-link boards) may
have an insufficiant resolution to drive the display. You can
solve this problem by forcing the graphic board to operate on a
lower vertical frequency. Therefore, proceed as follows:
1. Shut down the PC.
2. In the display OSD, browse to the Settings menu.
3. Select the function Preferred Input Freq.
4. Select 45 Hz as vertical frequency.
5. Exit the OSD.
6. Reboot the computer.
After reboot, the signal from the graphic board should now
be visible on the display.

Calibration
Each display is calibrated in the factory before it is sent to the
customer. After this calibration, black and white luminance are set to
the ideal level.
A stabilization routine, constantly active when the display is on, keeps
these levels constant using the built-in sensor.
Display Function
A Display Function describes how a display device converts the video
signals at the inputs into light.
In the context of a medical viewing station, a display device is the
combination of display controller (graphics board) and display.
The display function is a graph that shows how the light from the
display panel evolves from minimum to maximum luminance while
the data levels at the input of the display controller go from 0 to
maximum.
Display Controller head
A display controller (graphics board) converts the digital data
from the computer into digital or analog video voltages.
Most of the common display controllers contain just one set of
video and sync outputs. However, some high-end boards, like
some of the BarcoMed boards, contain two sets of video and
sync outputs. This is called a dual head display controller. It is
like two complete display controllers implemented on one
single unit.
A dual head board in the computer behaves exactly as if two
separate boards were installed.
97
Glossary
DICOM
DICOM stands for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine. It
is a standard developed by the American College of Radiology (ACR)
and the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA).
The standard specifies how digital image data can be moved from
system to system.
In addition, Supplement 28 Part 14 specifies a function that relates
pixel values to displayed Luminance levels and is called Grayscale
Standard Display Function.
Presets and Internal memory system
The memory of the display contains maximum 200 fixed and
28 programmable Presets.
When you connect a video signal, the display checks in the
memory for a matching Preset.
If it finds one, it selects the corresponding settings and
parameters from the memory. If it does not find a matching
Preset, the display uses default settings to display the image.
When you make adjustments and save the changes, the
current Preset is saved as programmable Preset. If this
happens while all programmable Presets are occupied, the
oldest programmable Preset is overwritten automatically.
