Safety precautions and maintenance
WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments or procedures other than
those specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock,
electrical hazards and/or mechanical hazards.
Read and follow these instructions when connecting and using your computer monitor:
●
To protect your display from possible damage, do not put excessive pressure on
the LCD panel. When moving your monitor, grasp the frame to lift; do not lift the
monitor by placing your hand or fingers on the LCD panel.
Unplug the monitor if you are not going to use it for an extensive period of time.
Unplug the monitor if you need to clean it with a slightly damp cloth. The screen
may be wiped with a dry cloth when the power is off. However, never use alcohol,
solvents or ammonia-based liquids.
●
●
●
Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when you
have followed the instructions in this manual.
●
●
The casing cover should be opened only by qualified service personnel.
Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight and away from stoves or any other heat
source.
●
Remove any object that could fall into the vents or prevent proper cooling of the
monitor’s electronics.
●
●
Do not block the ventilation holes on the cabinet.
Keep the monitor dry. To avoid electric shock, do not expose it to rain or
excessive moisture.
●
●
When positioning the monitor, make sure the power plug and outlet are easily
accessible.
If turning off the monitor by detaching the power cable or DC power cord, wait for
6 seconds before attaching the power cable or DC power cord for normal
operation.
●
●
To avoid the risk of shock or permanent damage to the set, do not expose the
monitor to rain or excessive moisture.
IMPORTANT: Always activate a screen saver program during your application. If a
still image in high contrast remains on the screen for an extended period of time, it
may leave an 'after-image' or 'ghost image' on front of the screen. This is a well-
known phenomenon that is caused by the shortcomings inherent in LCD
technology. In most cases, the afterimage will disappear gradually over a period of
time after the power has been switched off. Be aware, that the afterimage symptom
cannot be repaired and is not covered under warranty.
●
Warning for lifting monitor - Do not use the area underneath the logo cover to grip
or lift the monitor. Placing weight on the logo cover can cause it to break away
from the body and cause the monitor to fall. When lifting the monitor, place one
hand under the monitor's frame.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
General FAQs
Q: When I install my monitor what should I do if the screen shows 'Cannot display this video
mode'?
A: Recommended video mode for Philips 20": 1680x1050 @60Hz.
1. Unplug all cables, then connect your PC to the monitor that you used
previously.
2. In the Windows Start Menu, select Settings/Control Panel. In the Control
Panel Window, select the Display icon. Inside the Display Control Panel,
select the 'Settings' tab. Under the setting tab, in box labeled 'desktop
area', move the slidebar to 1680x1050 pixels (20").
3. Open 'Advanced Properties' and set the Refresh Rate to 60Hz, then click
OK.
4. Restart your computer and repeat step 2 and 3 to verify that your PC is
set at 1680x1050@60Hz (20").
5. Shut down your computer, disconnect your old monitor and reconnect
your Philips LCD monitor.
6. Turn on your monitor and then turn on your PC.
Q: What does 'refresh rate' mean in connection with an LCD monitor?
A: The refresh rate is of much less relevance for LCD monitors. LCD monitors
display a stable, flicker-free image at 60Hz. There is no visible difference
between 85Hz and 60Hz.
Q: What are the .inf and .icm files on the CD-ROM? How do I install the drivers (.inf and .
icm)?
A: These are the driver files for your monitor. Follow the instructions in your
user manual to install the drivers. Your computer may ask you for monitor
drivers (.inf and .icm files) or a driver disk when you first install your monitor.
Follow the instructions to insert the ( companion CD-ROM) included in this
package. Monitor drivers (.inf and .icm files) will be installed automatically.
Q: How do I adjust the resolution?
A: Your video card/graphic driver and monitor together determine the available
resolutions. You can select the desired resolution under Windows® Control
Panel with the "Display properties".
Q: What if I get lost when I am making monitor adjustments?
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
A: Simply press the OK button, then select 'Reset' to recall all of the original
factory settings.
Q: What is the Auto function?
A: The AUTO adjustment key restores the optimal screen position, phase and
clock settings by pressing of a single button – without the need to navigate
through OSD (On Screen Display) menus and control keys.
Note: Auto function is available in selected models from D-sub input.
Q: My Monitor has no power (Power LED does not light up). What should I do?
A: Make sure the AC power cord is connected between the monitor and AC
outlet, and click a key on keyboard/mouse to wake up the PC.
Q: Will the LCD monitor accept an interlaced signal under PC models?
A: No. If an Interlace signal is used, the screen displays both odd and even
horizontal scanning lines at the same time, thus distorting the picture.
Q: What does the Refresh Rate mean for LCD?
A: Unlike CRT display technology, in which the speed of the electron beam is
swept from the top to the bottom of the screen determines flicker, an active
matrix display uses an active element (TFT) to control each individual pixel and
the refresh rate is therefore not really applicable to LCD technology.
Q: Will the LCD screen be resistant to scratches?
A: A protective coating is applied to the surface of the LCD, which is durable to
a certain extent (approximately up to the hardness of a 2H pencil). In general, it
is recommended that the panel surface is not subject to any excessive shocks
or scratches.
Q: How should I clean the LCD surface?
A: For normal cleaning, use a clean, soft cloth. For extensive cleaning, please
use isopropyl alcohol. Do not use other solvents such as ethyl alcohol, ethanol,
acetone, hexane, etc.
Q:Can I change the color setting of my monitor?
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
A:Yes, you can change your color setting through OSD control as the following
procedures,
1. Press "OK" to show the OSD (On Screen Display) menu
2. Press "Down Arrow" to select the option "color" then press "OK" to enter
color setting, there are five settings as below.

b. 9300K; this setting features the panel closed to blue-white color
tone.
c. 6500K; this setting features the panel closed to red-white color
tone.
d. sRGB; this is a standard setting for ensuring correct exchange
of colors between different device (e.g. digital cameras, monitors,
printers, scanners, etc.)
e. User Define; the user can choose his/her preference color
setting by adjusting red, green, blue color.
*A measurement of the color of light radiated by an object while it is being heated. This
measurement is expressed in terms of absolute scale, (degrees Kelvin). Lower Kevin
temperatures such as 2004K are red; higher temperatures such as 9300K are blue. Neutral
temperature is white, at 6504K.
Q: Can the Philips LCD Monitor be mounted on the wall?
A: Yes. Philips LCD monitors have this optional feature. Four standard VESA
mount holes on the rear cover allows the user to mount the Philips monitor on
most of the VESA standard arms or accessories. We recommend to contact
your Philips sales representative for more information.
Screen Adjustments
Q: What is the FPadjust program on the CD-ROM?
A: The FPadjust program generates alignment patterns that help you adjust
monitor settings such as Contrast, Brightness, Horizontal Position, Vertical
Position, Phase and Clock for optimal performance.
Q: When I install my monitor, how do I get the best performance from the monitor?
A:
1. For best performance, make sure your display settings are set at
1680x1050@60Hz for 20". Note: You can check the current display
settings by pressing the OSD OK button once. The current display mode
is shown in OSD first page.
2. To install the Flat Panel Adjust (FPadjust) program located on the

step by step to optimize image performance with your system's video
controller.
Q: How do LCDs compare to CRTs in terms of radiation?
A: Because LCDs do not use an electron gun, they do not generate the same
amount of radiation at the screen surface.
Compatibility with other Peripherals
Q: Can I connect my LCD monitor to any PC, workstation or Mac?
A: Yes. All Philips LCD monitors are fully compatible with standard PCs, Macs
and workstations. You may need a cable adapter to connect the monitor to your
Mac system. Please contact your dealer/retailer for more information.
Q: Are Philips LCD monitors Plug-and-Play?
A: Yes, the monitors are Plug-and-Play compatible with Windows® 95, 98, 2000,
XP and Vista.
Q: My monitor has no picture when connect to DVI-I w/ analog signal on the PC via DVI-D
SUB cable after startup PC. What should I do?
A: Try to change to DVI-I w/ digital via DVI cable and re-startup PC. DVI-I
standard basically combines both analog and digital in single connector. The
monitor also contains two types of analog and digital EDID. Digital EDID will set
as the default and analog EDID will automatically change refer to analog signal.
This is likely that your PC read EDID type before making decision to send
analog or digital from DVI-I port. However, this compatibility limitation is rarely
found on PC, workstation, or Mac.
Q: What is USB (Universal Serial Bus)?
A: Think of USB as a smart plug for PC peripherals. USB automatically
determines resources (like driver software and bus bandwidth) required by
peripherals. USB makes necessary resources available without user
intervention. There are three main benefits of USB. USB eliminates "case
anxiety," the fear of removing the computer case to install circuit board cards --
that often requires adjustment of complicated IRQ settings -- for add-on
peripherals. USB does away with "port gridlock." Without USB, PCs are
normally limited to one printer, two Com port devices (usually a mouse and
modem), one Enhanced Parallel Port add-on (scanner or video camera, for
example), and a joystick. More and more peripherals for multimedia computers
come on the market every day. With USB, up to 127 devices can run
simultaneously on one computer. USB permits "hot plug-in." No need to shut
down, plug in, reboot and run set up to install peripherals. No need to go

through the reverse process to unplug a device. Bottom line: USB transforms
today's "Plug-and-Pray" into true Plug-and-Play!
Please refer to glossary for more information about USB.
Q: What is a USB hub ?
A: A USB hub provides additional connections to the Universal Serial Bus. A
hub's upstream port connects a hub to the host, usually a PC. Multiple
downstream ports in a hub allows connection to another hub or device, such
as a USB keyboard, camera or printer.
Q: What can I do if my USB peripherals don't work with the USB hub of my monitor?
A: If you experience the problem, just detach and re-attach the USB hub cable
between PC and your monitor, then refresh your PC device manager (Start >
Setting > Control panel > System > Hardware > Device manager > Refresh) or
reboot your PC and the problem can be solved by above procedures.
LCD Panel Technology
Q: What is a Liquid Crystal Display?
A: A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is an optical device that is commonly used to
display ASCII characters and images on digital items such as watches,
calculators, portable game consoles, etc. LCD is the technology used for
displays in notebooks and other small computers. Like light-emitting diode and
gas-plasma technologies, LCD allows displays to be much thinner than
cathode ray tube (CRT) technology. LCD consumes much less power than LED
and gas-displays because it works on the principle of blocking light rather than
emitting it.
Q: What differentiates passive matrix LCDs from active matrix LCDs?
A: An LCD is made with either a passive matrix or an active matrix display grid.
An active matrix has a transistor located at each pixel intersection, requiring
less current to control the luminance of a pixel. For this reason, the current in
an active matrix display can be switched on and off more frequently, improving
the screen refresh time (your mouse pointer will appear to move more
smoothly across the screen, for example). The passive matrix LCD has a grid of
conductors with pixels located at each intersection in the grid.
Q: What are the advantages of TFT LCD compared with CRT?
A: In a CRT monitor, a gun shoots electrons and general light by colliding
polarized electrons on fluorescent glass. Therefore, CRT monitors basically
operate with an analog RGB signal. A TFT LCD monitor is a device that
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
displays an input image by operating a liquid crystal panel. The TFT has a
fundamentally different structure than a CRT: Each cell has an active matrix
structure and independent active elements. A TFT LCD has two glass panels
and the space between them is filled with liquid crystal. When each cell is
connected with electrodes and impressed with voltage, the molecular structure
of the liquid crystal is altered and controls the amount of inlet lighting to
display images. A TFT LCD has several advantages over a CRT, since it can be
very thin and no flickering occurs because it does not use the scanning
method.
Q: Why is vertical frequency of 60Hz optimal for an LCD monitor?
A: Unlike a CDT monitor, the TFT LCD panel has a fixed resolution. For
example, an XGA monitor has 1024x3 (R, G, B) x 768 pixels and a higher
resolution may not be available without additional software processing. The
panel is designed to optimize the display for a 65MHz dot clock, one of the
standards for XGA displays. Since the vertical/horizontal frequency for this dot
clock is 60Hz/48kHz, the optimum frequency for this monitor is 60Hz.
Q: What kind of wide-angle technology is available? How does it work?
A: The TFT LCD panel is an element that controls/displays the inlet of a
backlight using the dual-refraction of a liquid crystal. Using the property that
the projection of inlet light refracts toward the major axis of the liquid element,
it controls the direction of inlet light and displays it. Since the refraction ratio of
inlet light on liquid crystal varies with the inlet angle of the light, the viewing
angle of a TFT is much narrower than that of a CDT. Usually, the viewing angle
refers to the point where the contrast ration is 10. Many ways to widen the
viewing angle are currently being developed and the most common approach is
to use a wide viewing angle film, which widens the viewing angle by varying the
refraction ratio. IPS (In Plane Switching) or MVA (Multi Vertical Aligned) is also
used to give a wider viewing angle.
Q: Why is there no flicker on an LCD Monitor?
A: Technically speaking, LCDs do flicker, but the cause of the phenomenon is
different from that of a CRT monitor -- and it has no impact of the ease of
viewing. Flickering in an LCD monitor relates to usually undetectable
luminance caused by the difference between positive and negative voltage. On
the other hand, CRT flickering that can irritate the human eye occurs when the
on/off action of the fluorescent object becomes visible. Since the reaction
speed of liquid crystal in an LCD panel is much slower, this troublesome form
of flickering is not present in an LCD display.
Q: Why is an LCD monitor virtually low of Electro Magnetic Interference?
A: Unlike a CRT, an LCD monitor does not have key parts that generate Electro
Magnetic Interference, especially magnetic fields. Also, since an LCD display
utilizes relatively low power, its power supply is extremely quiet.

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.
Important:
This apparatus is supplied with an approved
moulded 13A plug. To change a fuse in this
type of plug proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS 1362 5A,
A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your
socket outlets, it should be cut off and an
appropriate 3-pin plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5A. If a plug without a fuse is
used, the fuse at the distribution board
should not be greater than 5A.
Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to
avoid a possible shock hazard should it be
inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
BLUE - "NEUTRAL" ("N")
BROWN - "LIVE" ("L")
GREEN & YELLOW - "EARTH" ("E")
1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be
connected to the terminal in the plug which
is marked with the letter "E" or by the Earth
symbol
or coloured GREEN or GREEN
AND YELLOW.
2. The BLUE wire must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter "N"
or coloured BLACK.
3. The BROWN wire must be connected to
the terminal which marked with the letter "L"
or coloured RED.
Before replacing the plug cover, make
certain that the cord grip is clamped over the
sheath of the lead - not simply over the three
wires.

Philips Pixel Defect Policy
Philips' Flat Panel Monitors Pixel Defect Policy
Philips strives to deliver the highest quality products. We use some of the industry's most
advanced manufacturing processes and practice stringent quality control. However, pixel or
sub pixel defects on the TFT LCD panels used in flat panel monitors are sometimes
unavoidable. No manufacturer can guarantee that all panels will be free from pixel defects,
but Philips guarantees that any monitor with an unacceptable number of defects will be
repaired or replaced under warranty. This notice explains the different types of pixel defects
and defines acceptable defect levels for each type. In order to qualify for repair or
replacement under warranty, the number of pixel defects on a TFT LCD panel must exceed
these acceptable levels. For example, no more than 0.0004% of the sub pixels on a 15" XGA
monitor may be defective. Furthermore, Philips sets even higher quality standards for
certain types or combinations of pixel defects that are more noticeable than others. This
policy is valid worldwide.
Pixels and Sub pixels
A pixel, or picture element, is composed of three sub pixels in the primary colors of red,
green and blue. Many pixels together form an image. When all sub pixels of a pixel are lit,
the three colored sub pixels together appear as a single white pixel. When all are dark, the
three colored sub pixels together appear as a single black pixel. Other combinations of lit
and dark sub pixels appear as single pixels of other colors.
Types of Pixel Defects
Pixel and sub pixel defects appear on the screen in different ways. There are two categories
of pixel defects and several types of sub pixel defects within each category.
Bright Dot Defects Bright dot defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always lit or
'on'. That is, a bright dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the screen when the monitor
displays a dark pattern. There are the types of bright dot defects:
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Two adjacent lit sub pixels:
- Red + Blue = Purple
- Red + Green = Yellow
One lit red, green or blue
sub pixel
Three adjacent lit sub
pixels (one white pixel)
- Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)
A red or blue bright dot must be more than 50 percent brighter than neighboring
dots while a green bright dot is 30 percent brighter than neighboring dots.
Black Dot Defects Black dot defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always dark or
'off'. That is, a dark dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the screen when the monitor
displays a light pattern. These are the types of black dot defects:
One dark sub pixel
Two or three adjacent dark sub pixels
Proximity of Pixel Defects
Because pixel and sub pixels defects of the same type that are near to one another may be
more noticeable, Philips also specifies tolerances for the proximity of pixel defects.

compatible device correctly on your sRGB enabled Philips monitors. In that way, the colors
are calibrated and you can rely on the correctness of the colors shown on your screen.
Important with the use of sRGB is that the brightness and contrast of your monitor is fixed
to a predefined setting as well as the color gamut. Therefore it is important to select the
sRGB setting in the monitor's OSD.
To do so, open the OSD by pressing the OK button on the side of your monitor. Move the
down button to go to Color and press OK again. Use the right button to go to sRGB. Then
move the down button and press OK again to exit the OSD.
After this, please do not change the brightness or contrast setting of your monitor. If you
change either of these, the monitor will exit the sRGB mode and go to a color temperature
setting of 6500K.

Glossary
A
Active matrix
This is a kind of liquid crystal display structure in which switching transistors are attached
to each pixel to control the on/off voltage. It produces a brighter and sharper display with a
broader viewing angle than a passive matrix display. Also refer to TFT (thin film transistor).
Amorphous silicon (a-Si)
A semiconductor material that is used to make the thin film transistors (TFTs) layer of an
active matrix LCD.
Aspect ratio
The width-to-height ratio of the active area of a display. In general, most monitors have an
aspect ratio of 4:3 or 5:4. Wide monitors or TVs have an aspect ratio of 16:9 or 16:10.
Brightness
The dimension of color that is referred to an achromatic scale, ranging from black to white,
also called lightness or luminous reflectance. Because of confusion with saturation, the use
of this term should be discouraged.
C
CCFL(cold cathode fluorescent light)
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
These are the fluorescent light tubes providing the light for the LCD module. These tubes
are generally very thin, approximately 2 mm in diameter.
Chromaticity
That part of color specification, which does not involve illuminance. Chromaticity is two-
dimensional and specified by pairs of numbers such as dominant wavelength and purity.
CIE (Commission International de I'Eclairage)
The International Commission on Illumination, the primary international organization
concerned with color and color measurement.
Color temperature
A measurement of the color of light radiated by an object while it is being heated. This
measurement is express in terms of absolute scale, (degrees Kelvin). Lower Kelvin
temperatures such as 2400° K are red; higher temperatures such as 9300° K are blue.
Neutral temperature is white, at 6504° K. Philips monitors generally offers 9300° K, 6500° K,
and user define.
Contrast
The luminance variation between light and dark areas in an image.
Contrast ratio
The ratio of luminance between the brightest white pattern and the darkest black pattern.
D
Dual Input
Dual input provides connectors to accommodate input of both analog VGA and digital DVI
signals.
D-SUB
A VGA Analog input connector. Your monitor comes with a D-Sub cable.

Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) specification provides a high-speed digital connection for
visual data types that is display technology independent. The interface is primarily focused
at providing a connection between a computer and its display device. The DVI specification
meets the needs of all segments of the PC industry (workstation, desktop, laptop, etc.) and
will enable these different segments to unite around one monitor interface specification.
The DVI interface enables:
1. Reduce signal loss and video noise in signal due to less signal conversion.
2. Independent from display technology, and can be used on LCD, Plasma, LCOS, etc.
3. Plug and play through hot plug detection, EDID and DDC2B.
4. Digital and Analog support in a single connector (DVI-I only).
E
Embedded Power Supply
An embedded power supply is a power adaptor built into the body of a display device that
replaces a bulky external power adaptor.
Energy Star Computers Program
An energy conservation program launched by the US Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), promotes the manufacture and marketing of energy-efficient office automation
equipment. Companies joining this program, must be willing to commit themselves to
manufacture one or more products capable of going into a low -power state (< 30 W) either
after a period of inactivity, or after a predetermined time selected by the user.
F
FPadjust Program
The FP Adjust program generates alignment patterns which will help you adjust monitor
settings such as CONTRAST, BRIGHTNESS, HORIZONTAL & VERTICAL POSITION, PHASE
and CLOCK.

G
Gamma
power function of the input video signal, the exponent of which is called gamma.
Grayscale
An achromatic scale ranging from black through a series of successively lighter grays to
white. Such a series may be made up of steps, which appear to be equally distant from one
8
another. If the Analog/ Digital converter is 8 bit, then the monitor can display at most 2 =
256 levels. For a color monitor, R.G.B. each color hads 256 levels. Thus, total color can
display is 256x256x256= 16.7 million.
H
HDCP
High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a copyright protection system that is
incorporated into the DVI connector. It helps stop unauthorized duplication of copyrighted
content. HDCP allows you to play protected content media such as movies and concerts.
It checks the signal to prevent piracy, allowing only legal copies of content to display.
Hue
The main attribute of a color that distinguishes it from other colors. For example, a color
may have a green, yellow, or purple hue. Color defined as having hue are know as chromatic
colors. White, black, and grays possess no hue.
IPS (In Plane Switching)
A technique of improving the viewing angle of an LCD where the liquid crystal molecules are
switched in the plane of the LCD layer rather than vertical to it.

L
LCD (liquid crystal display)
A display composed of liquid crystal suspended between two transparent sheets. The
display is composed thousands of pixels which can be turned on or off with electrical
stimulation. Thus, colorful images/texts can be generated.
Liquid crystal
The compound found in liquid crystal displays. Liquid crystal reacts predictably when
electrically stimulated. This makes it the ideal compound to turn LCD pixels "on" or "off."
Liquid crystal is sometimes abbreviated as LC.
Luminance
A measure of the brightness or luminous intensity of light, usually expressed in units of
Candelas per square meter (cd/m2) or foot Lamberts. 1 fL=3.426 cd/m2.
Nit
A unit of luminance equal to 1 cd/m2 or 0.292 ftL.
Pixel
PICture Element; the smallest element on a computerized CRT or LCD image, and hence a
display.
Polarizer
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
A light filter which only allows light waves of a certain rotation through. Polarized material
with perpendicular filtering is used in LCDs to enclose the liquid crystal. The liquid crystal is
then used as the medium which twists the light waves 90° in order to allow the light to pass
through or not.
Refresh rate
The number of times per second the screen is refreshed or redrawn. This number is usually
stated in Hz (Hertz) or cycles per second. A rate of 60 Hz is equal to 60 tomes per second.
Response Time
Response time is the period required for a liquid crystal cell to go from active (black) to
inactive (white) and back to active (black) again. It is measured in milliseconds. Faster is
better: Lower response time means faster transitions and, therefore, results in fewer visible
image artifacts in the display of fast-moving images.
S
SmartControl
PC software for fine tuning display performance and settings. Philips offers users two
choices for display setting adjustment. Either navigate the multilevel On Screen Display
menu through buttons on the display itself or use the Philips SmartControl software to
easily adjust the various display settings in a familiar way.

of screen performance depend by content type. It is changing brightness or contrast profiles
to enrich color of image and sharpen text. No matter your application is on text processing
or watching image or video, you can always get best viewing experience from Philips
SmartImage Lite.
SmartManage
Built-in advanced firmware that delivers audio output from external audio devices including
a portable tape, CD or MP3 player even when there is no video input.
SmartResponse
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
SmartResponse is exclusive Philips technology that adjusts response time to application
requirements, delivering faster response times for gaming and videos or better color
saturation for viewing photos and static images.
SmartTouch controls
SmartTouch controls are intelligent, ultra-responsive, touch sensitive icons that replace
protruding buttons. Responding to your lightest touch, SmartTouch controls, for example,
power up your monitor or brighten and sharpen your display with LightFrame™. When
activated, SmartTouch icons glow to indicate that your commands have been implemented.
Stand-alone audio function
Built-in advanced firmware that delivers audio output from external audio devices including
a portable tape, CD or MP3 player even when there is no video input.
sRGB
sRGB is a standard for ensuring correct exchange of colors between different devices (e.g.
digital cameras, monitors, printers, scanners, etc.)
Using a standard unified color space, sRGB will help represent pictures taken by an sRGB
compatible device correctly on your sRGB enabled Philips monitors. In that way, the colors
are calibrated and you can rely on the correctness of the colors shown on your screen.
Important with the use of sRGB is that the brightness and contrast of your monitor is fixed
to a predefined setting as well as the color gamut. Therefore it is important to select the
sRGB setting in the monitor's OSD.
To do so, open the OSD by pressing the OK button on the side of your monitor. Move the
down button to go to Color and press OK again. Use the right button to go to sRGB. Then
move the down button and press OK again to exit the OSD.
After this, please do not change the brightness or contrast setting of your monitor. If you
change either of these, the monitor will exit the sRGB mode and go to a color temperature
setting of 6500K.

USB plug: An upstream and a downstream USB plug is provide for user's convenience.
TFT(thin film transistor)
Usually made from amorphous silicon (a-Si) and used as a switch to a charge storage device
located below each sub-pixel on an active matrix LCD.

U
USB or Universal Serial Bus
The universal serial bus or USB is a standard protocol for linking PCs and peripherals.
Because it delivers high speed at a low cost, USB has become the most popular method for
connecting peripheral devices to a computer. A USB 2.0 port located on a monitor directly in
the user's line of sight provides easy, high-speed connectivity for USB devices at a
convenient location.
V
Vertical refresh rate
Expressed in Hz, it is the number of frames (complete pictures) written to the screen every
second.
