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:
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. Wiping the screen with a dry
cloth is possible 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 following 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 power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6 seconds, then attach
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.
●
When positioning the monitor, make sure the power plug and outlet are easily accessible.●
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 a so called "after-image"
or "ghost image" in front of the screen. This is a well-known phenomenon that is caused by the
shortcomings inherent in the LCD technology. Most of the time the after-image will disappear
gradually over a period of time after switching off the power. Be aware that the after-image symptom
can not be repaired and is not covered under warranty.
●
Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when operating instructions of this
manual are followed.

Description of the On Screen Display
What is the On-Screen Display?
This is a feature in all Philips LCD monitors which allows an end-user to adjust screen performance of
monitors directly though an on-screen instruction window. The user interface provides user-friendliness and
ease-of-use when operating the monitor.
Basic and simple instruction on the control keys.
On the front controls of your monitor, once you press the
button, the On Screen Display (OSD) Main
Controls window will pop up and you can now start making adjustments to your monitor's various features.

D-SUB USB
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:
Content to remain in the lossless digital domain from creation to consumption.1.
Display technology independence.2.
Plug and play through hot plug detection, EDID and DDC2B.3.
Digital and Analog support in a single connector.4.

Energy Star Computers Programme
An energy conservation programme launched by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with the
primary aim of promoting the manufacture and marketing of energy-efficient office automation equipment.
Companies joining this programme must be willing to commit themselves to manufacturing 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.

L
LCD Liquid Crystal Display
An alphanumeric display using the unique properties of liquid crystal to form characters. The latest flat-panel
displays comprise a matrix of hundreds or thousands of individual LCD cells that generate text and colorful
graphics on a screen. They consume little power though they do require external lighting to make them
legible to the user.

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.
USB eliminates "case angst" -- the fear of removing the computer case to install add-on peripherals.
And USB also eliminates adjustment of complicated IRQ settings when installing new 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 arrive on
the market every day. With USB, up to 127 devices can run simultaneously on a computer.
●
USB permits "hot plug-in." There's no need to shut down, plug in, reboot and run set-up to install
peripherals. And no need to go through the reverse process to unplug a device.
●
In short, USB transforms today's "Plug-and-Pray" into true Plug-and-Play!
Hub
Glossary
file:///D|/Grace/03771/english/150p3de/glossary/glossary.htm (2 of 4) [1/30/2002 2:39:42 PM]
A Universal Serial Bus device that provides additional connections to the Universal Serial Bus.
Hubs are a key element in the plug-and-play architecture of USB. The Figure shows a typical hub. Hubs
serve to simplify USB connectivity from the user's perspective and provide robustness at low cost and
complexity.
Hubs are wiring concentrators and enable the multiple attachment characteristics of USB. 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. Each downstream port can be individually
enabled and configured at either full or low speed. The hub isolates low speed ports from full speed
signaling.
A hub consists of two portions: the Hub Controller and Hub Repeater. The repeater is a protocol-controlled
switch between the upstream port and downstream ports. It also has hardware support for reset and
suspend/resume signaling. The controller provides the interface registers to allow communication to/from
the host. Hub specific status and control commands permit the host to configure a hub and to monitor and
control its ports.
Device
A logical or physical entity that performs a function. The actual entity described depends on the context of
the reference. At the lowest level, device may refer to a single hardware component, as in a memory device.
At a higher level, it may refer to a collection of hardware components that perform a particular function, such
as a Universal Serial Bus interface device. At an even higher level, device may refer to the function
performed by an entity attached to the Universal Serial Bus; for example, a data/FAX modem device.
Devices may be physical, electrical, addressable, and logical.
Downstream
The direction of data flow from the host or away from the host. A downstream port is the port on a hub
electrically farthest from the host that generates downstream data traffic from the hub. Downstream ports
receive upstream data traffic.
Glossary
file:///D|/Grace/03771/english/150p3de/glossary/glossary.htm (3 of 4) [1/30/2002 2:39:42 PM]
Upstream
The direction of data flow towards the host. An upstream port is the port on a device electrically closest to
the host that generates upstream data traffic from the hub. Upstream ports receive downstream data traffic.
