Frequently Asked Questions

multimedia computers come on the market every day. With USB, up to 127 devices can run

TCO95, which is "better" than TCO92, which, in turn, is better than MPRII. Below, we compare the

1. What does the "Designed for Windows" logo signify?

The "Designed for Windows" logo means your Philips monitor fulfills the requirements and recommendations of the PC9x (97, 98, or 99) System Design Guide and passes stringent WHQL tests.

What is USB?

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. Its three main benefits are:

USB eliminates "Case angst," the fear of removing the computer case to install circuit board cards - that often require adjustment of complicated IRQ settings -- for add-on peripherals.

l 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

simultaneously on a computer.

l 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!

3. What is a USB hub?

Think of USB hub as a extension of USB ports. Normally, the PC provides only one or two USB ports. To connect additional USB devices, you need a USB hub.

4. What is TCO?

TCO is a Swedish abbreviation for the Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees.

5. What is MPR?

MPR is a Swedish abbreviation for the Swedish National Board of Measurement and Testing.

6. What are the differences between MPRII, TCO92, TCO95, TCO99 and TCO'03?

Visual Ergonomics:

MPRII: No requirement. TCO92: No requirement. TCO95: Set ergonomic rules including minimum contrast level, flicker and jitter. TCO99: Tightened TCO95 rules. TCO'03: Tighten TCO99 rule for CRT and new requirement of screen color for TFT LCD Monitors.

Ecology:

MPRII: No requirement. TCO92: No requirement. TCO95: Set general ecological standards including recycling preparation, environmental policy and environmental certification. TCO99: Further tightened TCO95 norms. TCO'03:Require the recycling information to users.

7. How do I enable the energy saving function?

Go to 'My Computer' and select 'Control Panel' followed by 'Monitor Control.' Select "All default selection' and choose your Philips monitor model from the default driver list. Plug and Play will automatically enable the EPA tick box for you. In DOS or Windows 3.1, you must first make sure your PC supports power saving.

85 times per second. A higher the refresh rate means better image stability and less flicker. A high

refresh rate helps users who work long hours in front of a monitor avoid eye fatigue and stress. To

8. What is refresh rate?

"Refresh rate" describes the number of times an entire screen is vertically scanned each second. In other words: If a monitor's refresh rate is 85 Hz, its screen is refreshed - or vertically scanned -

change the refresh rate, go into "Start/Settings / Control Pannel / Display / Properties / Setting/Advance/Adaptor" Windows settings of the computer, the monitor will automatically adjust itself to the video card.

9. Why does the picture on the screen appear to flicker?

A low refresh rate or electrical interference typically causes flickering in the picture. Possible solutions include the following:

Verify that the proper drivers are installed for your video card

Make sure that all electrical devices (such as mobile phones) are at least 1m from the monitor

l Place the monitor in another physical location away from electrical interference l Adjust the refresh rate to 75hz or higher.

10. How do I adjust my monitor's resolution?

Available resolutions are determined by the capabilities of your video card and graphic driver. Under Windows '95, you may select the desired available resolution through the 'Display properties/Settings' menu.

11. How can I adjust the size, position and rotation of my screen?

Depending on the model you own, you can use your CustoMax Software, On Screen Display (OSD) or control knobs located on the monitor.

1 3. My screen shows NO SIGNAL INPUT , how can I get rid of this?

Check the following for possible solutions:

Bent pins on the video cable

l Make sure the computer is turned on l

Ensure the VGA Cable is properly connected

Ensure the BNC/D-Sub connector on the rear of the monitor is in the correct position, newer models have this option in the On Screen Display under Input Signal Selection.

Video card may be not a VESA standard (try the monitor with another computer)

14. Why does my monitor display "Out of Range"?

contact your computer manufacturer for details on how to lower resolution for your operating system.

15. What is Moire? Why does my monitor have this wavy phenomenon?

Moire is a natural effect or phenomenon of CRT that has the appearance of a wavy pattern, which is repetitive and superimposed on the screen as ripple images. These are a few suggestions to help reduce or minimize the effects:

l Some monitors have a Moire cancellation feature, activate it to the on position or adjust the

Moire cancellation function via the OSD on the monitor.

l Change resolution to the recommended standard for the specific monitor size. l

Change Window viewing pattern/scheme to a pattern where the Moire is less visible.

l Change horizontal and vertical size to optimize the reduction of the Moire effect.

this?

If the OSD menu is also missing a color, please contact service for details

l Set color temperature to 9300 color coordination l Check the video cable for any bent pins l Video card could be defective (try the monitor with another computer).

17. When I degauss my monitor, it makes a loud noise. Is this normal?

which automatically degausses the monitor when it is switched on.

Yes, when degaussing your monitor via the OSD, it is normal for the monitor to make a relatively loud noise. Please be aware that many models will not degauss more than once within any given time period (up to 10 minutes). This is due to the unit having a temperature sensitive resistor. While the unit is degaussing, the resistor increases in value with heat and once it reaches a certain temperature, the resistance will rise and prevent voltage from reaching the degaussing coil. This is what stops the degausser, and this device's resistance will decrease as it cools back off, enabling the degauss function to operate again. This is an intentional design and is an industry standard, not just for Philips monitors. Please be aware that not all models in the Philips range has this manual degauss function. Some models are built with an auto degauss feature

18. How do I adjust the picture on the screen?

Please perform the following to correct the picture image:

l Reset your monitor via the OSD menu l Adjust the Horz (width) and/or Vert size (height) in the OSD l

Change monitor timing to work at the recommended resolution

19. The edge of the picture on the screen appears to be distorted. How can I correct this?

Please perform the following to correct the picture image:

l A magnetic or electrical interference typically causes poor geometry in the picture. Place

the monitor in a different physical location

l Reset the monitor to the factory preset via the OSD menu l

Access the Geometry Menu in the OSD of the Monitor and perform the necessary adjustments

Change the monitor timing to the recommended resolution

20. The picture appears too dim. How can I correct this?

Adjust Brightness and/or Contrast via the monitor 's OSD. Some models have a Video Input Select

under Advanced Controls in the monitor 's OSD. Most computers require it to be set at 0.7V.
