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 wellknown 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.

Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when the operating instructions given in this manual have been followed.

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?

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?

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.

a.Original; this setting load the default panel setting in terms of color tone. (Note: different panel maker may feature a different color temperature*)

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 monitor setup CD-ROM, open the CD-ROM and double-click the FP_setup4.3.exe icon. This will install FP Adjust automatically and place a shortcut on your desktop.

3.Run FPadjust by double clicking the shortcut. Follow the instructions

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

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.
