A: Recommended video mode for Philips 19": 1440x900 @60Hz. 1.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) 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? A: Simply press the OK button, then select 'Reset' to recall all of the original factory settings.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) 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.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) 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. For 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.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) system. Please contact your Philips sales representative 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: 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.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) 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.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) 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.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) Q: Does the LCD monitor conform to general safety standards? A: Yes. Philips LCD monitors conform to the guidelines of MPR-II and TCO 99/03 standards for the control of radiation, electromagnetic waves, energy reduction, electrical safety in the work environment and recyclability. The specification page provides detailed data on safety standards More information is provided in the Regulatory Information section.

SmartManage Q&A Q1. What is the difference between SmartManage, SmartControl? A. SmartManage is a remote management/control software for IT managers to manage monitors across the network SmartControl is a control panel extension, which helps users to adjust monitor performances and settings by a software interface, instead of the hardware buttons at the front bezel of the monitors. Q2. I change the monitor on a PC to a different one and the SmartControl becomes un-usable, what do I do? A.
SmartManage Q7. In a monitor with the Smartlmage feature, the sRGB scheme of color temperature function in SmartControl is not responding, why? A. When Smartlmage is enabled, the sRGB scheme is disabled automatically. To use sRGB, you need to disable Smartlmage with the button at the front bezel of your monitor.

Glossary Glossary ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 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.
Glossary The light source for a transmissive LCD. There are two techniques used in nowaday LCD designs. Most TFT LCD panels use CCFLs (cold cathode fluorescent light) and a diffuser panel directly behind the liquid crystal layer. New technology using Light Emitting Diodes (LED) are still under development. Brightness The dimension of color that is referred to an achromatic scale, ranging from black to white, also called lightness or luminous reflectance.
Glossary Contrast ratio The ratio of luminance between the brightest white pattern and the darkest black pattern. RETURN TO TOP OF THE PAGE D 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.
Glossary 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.
Glossary 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.
Glossary PerfecTune PerfecTune is industry-leading, proprietary Philips testing and algorithm technology for display adjustment and fine tuning, an extensive process that ensures ultimate performance in compliance with a standard four times more stringent than Microsoft’s already high Vista requirements from each and every monitor that leaves the factory–not just a few review samples.
Glossary SmartControl II is monitor-based software with an easy-to-use on-screen graphic interface that guides you through fine-tuning resolution, color calibration and other display settings including brightness, contrast, clock & phase, position, RGB, white point and - on models with onboard speakers - volume adjustments. SmartImage SmartImage provides presets that optimize display for different types of content, dynamically adjusting brightness, contrast, color and sharpness in real time.
Glossary Other: USB plug: An upstream and a downstream USB plug is provide for user's convenience. T 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 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.
Glossary Attachment points are referred to as ports. Each hub converts a single attachment point into multiple attachment points. The architecture supports concatenation of multiple hubs. The upstream port of a hub connects the hub towards the host. Each of the other downstream ports of a hub allows connection to another hub or function. Hubs can detect, attach and detach at each downstream port and enable the distribution of power to downstream devices.
