# Council Decision of 13 November 2012 on the signing and conclusion of the Agreement between the Government of the United States of America and the European Union on the coordination of energy-efficiency labelling programmes for office equipment (Text with EEA relevance) (2013/107/EU), Division (8): Set size and luminance as follows:


(a) Test pattern (VESA FPDM Standard 2.0, A112-2F, SET01K) shall be displayed that provides eight shades of gray from full black (0 volts) to full white (0,7 volts).1 Input signal levels shall conform to VESA Video Signal Standard (VSIS), Version 1.0, Rev. 2.0, December 2002.
(b) With the brightness and contrast controls at maximum, the technician shall check that, at a minimum, the white and near white gray levels can be distinguished. If white and near white gray levels cannot be distinguished, then contrast shall be adjusted until they can be distinguished.
(c) The technician shall next display a test pattern (VESA FPDM Standard 2.0, A112-2H, L80) that provides a full white (0,7 volts) box that occupies 80 % of the image.
(d) The technician shall then adjust the brightness until the white area of the screen is set at the following luminance:
Product
Cd/m2
Less than or equal to 1.1 MP resolution
175
Greater than 1.1 MP resolution
200
measured according to VESA FPDM Standard 2.0, Section 302-1. (If the display's maximum luminance is less than the prescribed luminance in the table above, the technician shall use the maximum luminance and report the value to EPA or the European Commission, as applicable, with other required testing documentation. Similarly, if the display's minimum luminance is greater than the prescribed luminance, the technician shall use the minimum luminance and report the value to EPA or the European Commission, as applicable.)
(e) The luminance value shall be reported to EPA or the European Commission, as applicable, with other required testing documentation.
