Whether you are designing or completing daily tasks, the PD3205UA sports several features designed to streamline your workload. Picture-In-Picture (PIP) and Picture-By-Picture (PBP) modes allow you to pull up multiple images from multiple devices with interlaced images or dividing the screen for dedicated image sections, respectively. A built-in KVM switch allows you to connect and control two different systems with a single keyboard and mouse.
One Key Shortcuts allow you to easily access color settings and more with standard key presses or use the included Hotkey Puck G2 controller for another layer of convenience. Display Pilot allows you to integrate additional designer-friendly features.
Integrated view presets allow you to use specialized modes such as CAD/CAM, Animation, Darkroom, and DualView to adjust display settings automatically to match your workload.
The DesignVue PD3205UA features one HDMI and one DisplayPort input, allowing you to connect multiple devices simultaneously and switch between them seamlessly. Additionally, a single USB-C input allows you to connect devices that support DP Alt Mode while supplying 90W power delivery so you can conveniently charge your device while expanding your screen real estate.
Ergonomics
The included Ergo stand allows you to maximize your workspace by clamping onto the edge of your desk. At the same time, it allows you to rotate the screen 90° for portrait viewing in addition to configuring its height and tilt. The 550° swivel makes collaboration easy by letting you quickly share content with others sitting close by. Integrated Eye-Care technology offers settings that filter out blue light so you can work on your projects for longer without experiencing eyestrain and fatigue.
