P72 17" Color Monitor - Product Overview

Applicable to: AP-N, AP-S, Canada, EMEA, United States

• Product User's Guide in PDF format.

The P72 monitor has the following general characteristics:

• 17-inch Trinitron(R) CRT with a viewable image size of 16.0 inches (407mm), incorporating a 0.25-mm aperture grille for bright, high-definition images
• A maximum horizontal frequency of 85 kHz provides flicker-free operation at an optimum 1024 x 768 pels at up to 85 Hz non-interlaced with a maximum addressability of 1280 x 1024 pels.

The P72 models support a wide range of display modes and can attach to and operate with many IBM and compatible PC systems. The microprocessor-controlled, multifrequency operation allows you to change, replace, or upgrade most system units without replacing the monitor. The P72 monitor will run most standard VGA, SVGA, and XGA applications without modification, minimizing additional expenses associated with program alterations or in retraining staff.

The P72 models feature Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) Display Data Channel (DDC) capability for Plug and Play and asset tracking when the attaching system unit's hardware and software is DDC-enabled.

The new model's power management capability meets the power consumption requirements of Swedish National Board for Industrial and Technical Development (NUTEK). As an Energy Star partner , IBM has determined that this product meets the Energy Star guidelines for energy efficiency.

The P72 monitor supports the timings for the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) 85 Hz non-interlaced refresh rate display modes for 640 x 480, 800 x 600, and 1024 x 768 addressabilities. Appropriate graphics adapter hardware and software must be installed in the attaching system unit.

All models of the P72 monitor are TCO-95 compliant and incorporate a universal power supply with power factor correction (EN 61000-3-2:1995) providing worldwide operating capability.

Key Prerequisites: The P72 monitor operates with many IBM and compatible PC systems. Most VGA, SVGA, XGA, and SXGA applications will run without modification.

Hardware Requirements:
The IBM P72 Color Monitor is designed to operate with system units or graphic adapters that generate a video output signal that falls within the specifications below:

Parameter	P72
Max addressability (pels)	1280 x 1024
Horizontal frequency (kHz)	30 - 85
Vertical frequency (Hz)	50 - 150

Note: Horizontal and vertical sync signal timings are critical in order to achieve acceptable screen images. As a consequence, support for all possible variations in H/V sync timings for any display mode cannot be stated.

National Language Support for Asia Pacific, Canada, Europe/Middle East/Africa is a function of the graphic adapter in the system unit and the application or support software.

Software Requirements:
The IBM P72 Color Monitor features factory-preset and user-settable display modes. The actual display modes that are used are a function of the attaching system unit, its operating system, and application software.

Factory-Preset Display Modes

Addressability	Refresh	Line Rate	VESA
640 x 480	60Hz NI	31.5 kHz	Std
640 x 480	75Hz NI	37.5 kHz	Std
640 x 480	85Hz NI	43.3 kHz	Std
800 x 600	75Hz NI	46.9 kHz	Std
800 x 600	85Hz NI	53.7 kHz	Std
1024 x 768	75Hz NI	60.0 kHz	Std
1024 x 768	85Hz NI	68.7 kHz	Std
1280 x 1024	75Hz NI	80.0 kHz	Std

Factory presets: 8
User locations: 10

Note:
VESA = Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA)
Std = VESA Standard
Gde = VESA Guideline

Note: The factory-preset modes cannot be overwritten, but any of them can be adjusted to personal choice. The new settings are stored automatically in one of the user locations and are recalled each time that mode is used. The factory settings for the mode in use, if any, can be restored by operating the Geometry Reset control. It may be necessary to make some adjustments to the displayed picture to compensate for variations in video signal timings. The user controls can be used to make these adjustments.

Compatibility: The monitor is supplied with a attached video signal cable. This cable has the same 15-pin, D-shell video connector for system unit connection as previous IBM monitors.

Supported systems:
The monitor has been tested for compatibility with the following IBM PC systems:

Limitations:

• Not all available display modes run at the high refresh rates necessary for flicker-free performance. Display modes at lower refresh rates are available for compatibility with older graphics adapters and system units.
• Supported display modes are a function of the attaching system unit. The full range of display modes available with these monitors may not be available or supported with all combinations of system units, their operating systems, and application software.
• Horizontal and vertical sync signal timings are critical in order to achieve acceptable screen images. As a consequence, support for all possible variations in H/V sync timings for any display mode cannot be stated.
• The number of colors shown in any display mode is not limited by the monitor but depends on the capabilities of the adapter the monitor is attached to.
• Power Factor correction is effective only during normal operation and not during power management.
• The power management function is invoked only after initiating signals are received from the attached system unit or graphics adapter. The method used to implement power management follows the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) Display Power Management Signalling (DPMS) standard. This standard must also be implemented in the attaching system unit and/or graphics adapter for monitor power management to be effective.
• Implementation of monitor Plug and Play follows the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) Display Data Channel (DDC) standard. This standard must also be implemented in the attaching system unit hardware and software to be effective.
• Not all system units are DDC-enabled. In this situation, the user is required to perform the configuration necessary to obtain optimum performance from the system/graphic adapter/monitor combination.

Cable Orders:
An attached video signal cable is supplied with the monitor. It is 1.8 meters (6 ft) long with a 15-pin, mini D-shell connector. A separate signal cable adapter (part number 96G2693) is required to provide "1010" ID bits at the monitor interface for those systems that require ID bits.

Cable Options:
For RISC/6000:
15pin-D to 15pin-D Adapter (with 1010 ID bits) part number 96G2693

Note: When the new models of the P72 monitor are ordered as features of a IBM RISC System/6000(R) system, the cable requirements are automatically handled by the order process.

For APPLE(R) attachment:
15pin-D to 15pin-Apple(R) Cable Adapter part number 96G2694
