====== TFT-LCD Display Information ======
===== General Notes ======

Our products use TFT-LCDs (Thin Film Transistor - Liquid Crystal Display) made by world leading display manufacturers. These are carefully tested and integrated in our devices.\\

===== Image retention / Image persistence =====


LC Displays in general can show technology related image retention effects due to the LCD manufacturing process itself or environmental circumstances like electro statics in combination with the used display content.\\

//Image retention// on its own is reversible and doesn’t damage the display - in contrast to //image burn-in// effects which are commonly known to occur on cathode ray tube (CRT) monitors or plasma displays.\\

When image retention occurs retained content should start to fade out on its own after a while of display relaxation (e.g. power off, empty view).
Such effect is also limited to the display itself, so the general functionality of the mixing desk will not be affected.

It is known that using high contrasts and full colors in static views favour this effect. To avoid any imagine retention we recommend to follow these steps:

  * avoid elements which use 'full colors' (where one or more of the RGB base colors (red, green, blue) use the maximum of their brightness)
  * turn off the console when not in use. Since FW 9.2.7 our displays automatically use a screensaver when the console brightness is set to "off".
  * use dark color schemes wherever possible

===== Touch and colour calibration of TFT screens =====

To calibrate the colours of a TFT, please go to the system page of your device and navigate to Firmware -> Port State and select the desired module. Click on the arrow on the right to open a detailed view of the module. There you have the option to select calibrate touch. This allows you to set the touchscreen first and then adjust the RGB values of the display and all buttons. To apply the changes, press save on the TFT.
