Introduction and Safety

Safety precautions and maintenance

• Unplug the monitor, if you are not going to use it for an
extended 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 okay when
the power is off. However, never use alcohol or ammonia­based liquids.

• Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate
normally when following the instructions in this manual.

• The back cover should be removed only by qualified service
personnel.

• Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight and away from stoves
or any other heat source.

• The top of the monitor is not a shelf. Remove any object that
could fall into the vents or prevent proper cooling of the
monitor’s electronics.

• Keep the monitor dry.To avoid electric shock, do not expose
it to rain or excessive moisture.

• Keep the monitor away from magnetic objects, such as
speakers, electric motors, transformers, etc.

• When positioning the monitor, make sure the power plug and
outlet are easily accessible.

Your new monitor contains materials that can be recycled and
reused. Specialized companies can recycle your product to
increase the amount of reusable materials and to minimize the
amount to be disposed of.

Please find out about the local regulations on how to dispose

Introduction

The Philips Brilliance 201P/201B color monitor displays sharp
and brilliant images of text and graphics with a maximum
resolution of 1800x1440(201P),1800x1350(201B) pixels. It is
optimal for Windows, CAD / CAM / CAE, desktop publishing,
spread sheets, multi-media, and any other application that
demands a large screen size and high resolutions.

The monitor automatically scans horizontal frequencies from
30KHz to 115KHz(201P),107KHz(201B), and vertical
frequencies from 50Hz to 160Hz. With microprocessor-based
digital-controlled circuitry and On-Screen Display (OSD)
controls, the monitor can automatically adjust itself to the
video card’s scanning frequency and displays an image with
the precise parameters you desire.

Features

• An anti-glare, anti-static, and anti-reflection high-contrast
screen coating eliminates any bad effects caused by room
light reflecting on and dust attracted to the screen’s surface.

• With the Color Adjustment feature, you can easily choose
different preset color temperatures or set your own
customized color parameters.

• The Image Tilt Adjustment feature corrects a rotated image.
This correction minimizes the distortions caused by elements
such as the Earth’s magnetic field.

• The full-size feature expands the image on the monitor to fill
the screen when used in factory preset modes.

• USB Bay at back of monitor is prepared for the Universal
Serial Bus hub. You can easily and flexibly connect USB­designed devices – such as a mouse or keyboard – to the
monitor for true Plug-and-Play function. USB hub sold
separately (optional).

• Green Design – including automatic power saving function
(NUTEK) and low-emission compliance
(TCO ’95) – shows your commitment to the environment.

• DDC1/DDC2B allows communication between the monitor
and the PC for optimal video configuration.

• New CrystalClear technology for sharpnest high brightness
and high contrast

• Moire Cancellation eliminates diffraction, a fringe pattern in
the picture.

NOTE: Your monitor operates according to the VESA DDC level 1/2B.
Only computers that support the same guidelines and operate at the
same or a higher level can make use of this feature. If your computer
does not support the relevant guidelines, you can still use your
monitor and computer. However, you may need to manually specify
the appropriate resolution in the computer.

As an Energy Star Partner,
PHILIPS has determined that
this product meets the
Energy Star guidelines for
energy efficiency.

NERGY STAR is an
