Article | MONITOR



The monitor is a television-like box

except it is used in a computer for display. You can't use the computer

at all without a monitor. The monitor is different from the television

is many ways. It is flatter compared to the television. Television

refreshes the screen by interlacing while the monitor is using

non-interlaced functions. Monitors uses pixels to display, making it

finer and better to display text.
Larger

Resolution, Smaller Display


One thing you should know, since

monitors measure by pixels, you should always set the resolution right.

A larger resolution uses smaller pixels, making everything smaller but

you have a larger view. The default is 640x480 but most prefer 800x600.

For larger monitors, you can decide on 1024x800 or 1280x1024. Also

remember, since there are more pixels, the higher the resolution, the

slower the screen refreshes.
Decide

On A Screen Filter


Although computer screens are just 30%

of the radioactivity from the TV or less, you still might want to

consider a screen filter. It helps filter up radioactivity. Never settle

for a cheap screen filter. A lousy one won't filter the screen - it just

darkens it. Always make sure that it won't make everything look dark.

Some good screen filters provide a wire to clip it at the back of the

casing to lose the radioactivity.
On the

other hand, you should also make sure you don't need one. Here are a few

points to guide you.


  • Your computer (&

    monitor)  is placed under a bright place and can balance with the

    brightness of the monitor



  • Your monitor is

    anti-glare and non-reflective.



  • Your monitor

    produces little static and radioactivity.



  • Your monitor

    produces clear, crisp and not-too-bright images.



  • You won't have

    problems staring at the monitor for a long time.

If your

monitor fits that criteria, you can forget the screen filter.
Blink

Your Eyes!


This is not actually a hardware tip,

just to let you know how important it is to blink your eyes. Your eyes

don't actually get strained staring at the monitor, just loses moisture

and making the eyes dry. It has been proven that people staring at the

monitor for a long time has the tendency to blink less than the normal

rate. Make an effort to blink your eyes. If not, try eye moisture drops.


Degauss


Degauss is a very important function

that helps you restore your monitor when colors are distorted or you

noticed weird colors at the corners of your monitor. This is cause by

magnetization that can be caused by jerking the monitor, shifting to a

different direction or moving it across the globe (different magnetic

field). The degauss control removes magnetization from your monitor
Use the

degauss control lightly. You should only degauss if you see color purity

problems. Otherwise, don't use it. Too much degaussing stresses the

circuitry components and overheats the large coil around the CRT. If

possible, when the display clears up, shut down the monitor/computer for

a while to let it cool down.
Take

Control


When your monitor comes, modify the

factory default setting of your monitor! Get more colors or brightness.

And stretch the screen to the fullest! Although this may sound trivial,

a lot of people just think it's alright to follow the original setting,

losing valuable screen space, you will be surprised to know how much

bigger you can stretch the screen. A bigger display is always better.
