    Low Blue Light Filter and Eye Health

    Calculating Breaks
    When viewing screens for extended periods, it is recommended to take periodic breaks from viewing. Short breaks of at least 10 minutes are recommended after one (1) hour of continuous viewing.

    Taking shorter, more frequent breaks are generally more beneficial than longer, less frequent breaks.

    Focus Fatigue (20-20-20 Rule)
    To reduce the risk of eye fatigue by constantly looking at the screen, look away from the screen at least every 20 minutes and gaze at a distant object (at least 20 feet away) for at least 20 seconds.

    Looking at Distant Objects
    While taking breaks, users can further reduce eye strain and dryness by focusing on objects that are further away from them for 10-15 seconds, then gaze at something up close for 10-15 seconds. Repeat this up to 10 times. This exercise reduces the risk of your eyes’ focusing ability to “lock up” after prolonged computer work.

    Eye and Neck Exercises
    Eye Exercises
    Eye exercises can help minimize eye strain. Slowly roll your eyes to the left, right, up, and down. Repeat as many times as needed.

    Eye Exercises

    Neck Exercises
    Neck exercises can also help minimize eye strain. Relax your arms and let them hang at your sides, bend forward slightly to stretch the neck, turn your head to the right and to the left. Repeat as many times as needed.

    Flicker-Free The CDE30 series uses DC-adjustable backlighting, which does not produce a visible or invisible flicker within the 0~3000 Hz range and therefore can reduce eye fatigue.

    Command Message Reference
    PC sends to LFD command packet followed by “CR”. Every time PC sends control command to Display, the Display shall respond as follows:

    1. If the message is received correctly it will send “+” (02Bh) followed by “CR” (00Dh)
    2. If the message is received incorrectly it will send “-” (02Dh) followed by “CR” (00Dh)

    Protocol

    Set-Function Listing

    The PC can control the Display for specific actions. The Set-Function command allows you to control the Display behavior at a remote site through the RS-232 port. The Set-Function packet format consists of 9 bytes.

    Set-Function Description:

    Length Total Byte of Message excluding “CR”
    LFD ID Identification for each of Display (01~98; default is 01)
    ID “99” means to apply the set command for all connected displays. Under such circumstances, only ID#1 display has to reply.
    The LFD ID can be set via the OSD menu for each Display.
    Command Type Identify command type,
    "s" (0x73h): Set Command
    "+" (0x2Bh): Valid Command Reply
    "-" (0x2Dh): Invalid Command Reply
    Command Function command code: One byte ASCII code.
    Value [1~3] Three bytes ASCII that defines the value.
    CR 0x0D

    Set-Function Format Send: (Command Type="s")

    Name Length ID Command Type Command Value1 Value2 Value3 CR

    Display Service

    myViewBoard Display allows users to mirror their desktop wirelessly to supported Interactive Flat Panels (IFP) and Wireless Presentation Displays (WPD).

    myViewBoard Display comes pre-installed on select ViewBoard® hardware, but can also be installed manually on any IFP or WPD that runs Android 6 or higher.

    Once myViewBoard Display is installed on an IFP or WPD, users will only need to use a compatible browser to start mirroring their device screen to the host.
