Display Properties
You may access the Properties page of the currently selected
display, which is represented by the monitor icon above with the
black frame around it, by either clicking on the “Properties”
button or double clicking on the icon. This screen (figure 20 on
page 49) shows properties of the currently active display.
Name: Displays the model name of the display.
Serial Number: Displays the serial number of the display.
Backlight RunTime: This is time in hours that the back light has
been on. A common question is: How much longer will the
backlight last? The backlight will typically last a very long time,
but will only be able to hold a calibrated output of for 17000
hours, after which time it will become slowly dimmer. For
displays calibrated at, an estimate of how long it will be before a
backlight replacement is needed = 17000 hours – backlight age.
Firmware Revisions: This is the runtime firmware that is loaded
in the display. This information may be helpful when there is a
problem.
Internal Temperature: This is the temperature inside the display.
It starts out at about the ambient temperature when the display
backlight is first turned on, then rises slowly to a steady-state
temperature as the display warms up. Changes in light level due
to temperature variations are completely controlled by the I-
Guard sensor on the front of the display.
Current Luminance Value: This is the current luminance value of
the display. It may vary a bit from time to time, for the display
continuously calibrates itself to meet the target luminance value.
