EIZO Releases 17" LCD Monitor for Security and Surveillance

Hakusan, Japan, February 14, 2013 - Eizo Nanao Corporation (TSE: 6737) today announced the release of the DuraVision FDS1703, a 17-inch monitor designed for security and surveillance.

The FDS1703 combines superb image quality with long-term reliability. It comes equipped with an energy-saving LED backlight that consumes less power than CCFL backlights and is mercury-free.

The monitor offers a 1280 x 1024 native resolution and can be viewed from a variety of positions with 160° horizontal and vertical viewing angles. The maximum brightness and contrast ratio are 350 cd/m² and 800:1 respectively.

The DuraVision FDS1703 comes with an analog D-Sub 15 pin input for connection to a computer and a composite (BNC) input for connection to video surveillance equipment such as closed-circuit televisions (CCTV) and security cameras. The composite input supports NTSC, PAL, and SECAM signals. To reduce ghosting and flicker, the composite input has a 3-dimensional Y/C separation circuit which separates the brightness signal (Y) from the color information signal (C), allowing the monitor to display high quality images with little noise. Compact dual-watt stereo speakers with RCA inputs are built in for audio capability.

Both underscan and overscan display settings are included in the monitor. Underscan shows 100% of an image and is ideal for video. Overscan displays about 95% of an image, which eliminates extraneous TV broadcasting data that sometimes appears at the edges of the screen.

The stand has a 100 mm height adjustment range, 30° tilt, 70° swivel, and 90° pivot capability so that the screen can be adjusted to the ideal viewing position in any environment. A VESA-mount version (no stand) is also available for installations. In addition, the power supply is built in, so there is no separate power brick or cord.
