Evaluation of the Siemens SCM21130LS 4 x 3 Aspect Ratio, 21-Inch Diagonal Color CRT Monitor

Abstract

The Siemens SCM21130LS 21 inch color monitor (18.7" viewable area, selling price 82800-- volume pricing can be quoted) has very good image quality and features that make it an excellent candidate display device for NIMA Imagery Exploitation Capability workstations, Based on our evaluation, NIDL certifies the Siemens SCM21130LS color monitor as being suitable for IEC workstations for the Image Analyst and Cartographer applications. NIDL rates this color monitor as a "B" for both monoscopic and stereo modes. It has built-in circuitry to maintain very stable luminance settings and color temperature over its lifetime. In a light ambient, the monitor is calculated to achieve 158:1 dynamic range with 3 fc illumination, and 60:1 with 10 fc illumination falling onto the screen. Based on field experience, Siemens calculates the reliability of its gray scale version of this monitor as 65,000 hours MTBF.
