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. The screen many 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.
● If turning off the monitor by detaching power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6 seconds
before 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 an
'after-image' or 'ghost image' on the front of the screen. This is a well-known phenomenon
that is caused by the shortcomings inherent in the 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 after-image symptom cannot be repaired and is not covered under
warranty.

sRGB
sRGB is a standard for ensuring correct exchange of colors between different devices (e.g.
digital cameras, monitors, printers, scanners, etc.)
Using a standard unified color space, sRGB will help represent pictures taken by an sRGB
compatible device correctly on your sRGB enabled Philips monitors. In that way, the colors are
calibrated and you can rely on the correctness of the colors shown on your screen.
Important with the use of sRGB is that the brightness and contrast of your monitor is fixed to a
predefined setting as well as the color gamut. Therefore it is important to select the sRGB
setting in the monitor's OSD.
To do so, at PC mode, open the OSD by pressing the MENU button of your monitor. Use the
down button to go to COLOR SETTINGS and press MENU again. Then move the down button
to go to NORMAL COLOR and press MENU again.

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 is 1280x768 @60Hz.
1. Unplug all cables, then connect your PC to the monitor you used previously, which displayed
correctly.
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
settings tab, in a box labeled 'desktop area', move the slidebar to 1280x768 pixels.
3. Open 'Advanced Properties' and set the Refresh Rate to 60Hz, then click OK.
4. Restart your computer and repeat steps 2 and 3 to verify that your PC is set at
1280x768@60Hz.
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 are the .inf and .icm files on the set-up disk & 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. The 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 driver
disk (either floppy or CD-ROM) included in this package. Monitor drivers (.inf and Icm files)
will be installed automatically.

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 the Control Panel of Windows® 95/98, Me, 2000
or XP, and with the 'Display properties/Settings'.
Q: What if I get lost while I am making monitor adjustments?
A: Simply press the MENU button, then select 'Factory Reset/All Settings' to recall all of the
original factory settings.
Q: My Monitor has no power (Power LED does not light up). What should I do?
A: Make sure the power cord is connected to the Monitor. Also, be sure the AC power switch
at the rear of the monitor is at 'ON' position.
Q: Will the product accept an Interlace signal?
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 at which 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?
Downloaded From TV-Manual.com Manuals
file:///D|/My%20Documents/dfu/300WN5/english/300wn5/SAFETY/SAF_FAQ.HTM (2 of 9)2005-02-16 10:33:31 AM
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
A: A protective coating is applied to the surface of the LCD, which is durable to a certain
extent (up to 3H in this Philips 30" LCD monitor). In general, it is recommended that the
panel surface is not subjected to any excessive shocks or scratches. An optional protective
cover with greater scratch resistance is also available.
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 the Philips LCD Monitor be mounted on the wall or used as a touch panel?
A: Yes, Philips LCD monitors have this optional feature. The standard VESA mount holes on
the back cover allow the user to mount the Philips monitor on any VESA standard ARM or
accessories. Touch panels are being developed for future applications. Check with your
Philips sales representative for more information.

Screen Adjustments
Q: What is the FPadjust program on the setup disk and 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?
Downloaded From TV-Manual.com Manuals
file:///D|/My%20Documents/dfu/300WN5/english/300wn5/SAFETY/SAF_FAQ.HTM (3 of 9)2005-02-16 10:33:31 AM
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
A:
1.
For best performance, make sure your display settings are set at 1280x768@60Hz. Note:
You can check the current display settings by pressing the OSD OK button once.
The current display mode is shown in the product information in the OSD main controls.
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_setup04.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 optimise
image performance with your system's video controller.
Q: How do LCDs compare with CRTs in terms of radiation?
A: Unlike CRT, the LCDs do not use an electron gun, so 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

platforms.
Q: What is a TV System?
A: Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries. There are different
standards: BG, DK, I and L L'. The SYSTEM setting is used to select these different
standards. This is not to be confused with PAL or SECAM colour coding. PAL is used in the
majority of European countries, Secam in France, the CIS and the majority of African
countries.
The United States and Japan use a different system called NTSC.
Q: What is SCART?
A: The SCART is a 20-pin rectangular connector fitted to the vast majority of PAL market TV
receivers. It provides composite video inputs and outputs, stereo audio in and out, and RGB
input. It is also known as Euro connector and PERI-tel.
Q: What are S-VIDEO Signals?
A: These are 2 separate Y/C video signals from the S-VIDEO and Hi-8 recording standards.
The luminance signals Y (black and white) and chrominance signals C (colour) are recorded
separately on the tape. This provides a better picture quality than is achieved with standard
video (VHS and 8 mm) where the Y/C signals are combined to provide only one video signal.

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-display displays because it works on the principle of blocking light rather
than emitting it.
Q: How are LCDs made?
A: LCDs are created from two glass plates separated from each other at a distance of a few
microns. The plates are filled with liquid crystal and then sealed together. The top plate is
coloured with an RGB pattern to make the colour filter. Polarizers are then glued to both
plates. This combination is sometimes called 'glass' or 'cell.' The LCD cell is assembled into
a 'module' by adding the backlight, driver electronics and frame.
Q: What is polarization ?
A: Polarization is basically directing light to shine in one direction. Light is electromagnetic
waves. Electric and magnetic fields oscillate in a direction perpendicular to the propagation
of the light beam. The direction of these fields is called the 'polarization direction'. Normal or
non-polarized light has fields in several directions; polarized light has a field in only one
direction.
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: How does a TFT LCD Panel work?

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
A: On each column and row of the TFT LCD panel a data source drive and a gate drive and
attached, respectively. The TFT drain of each cell is connected to the electrode. The
molecular arrangement of liquid crystal elements differs acceding to whether it is impressed
with voltage or not. It varies the direction of polarized light and the amount of light by letting
it through different arrays of liquid crystal elements. When two polarized filters are arranged
vertically on a polarized light pole, the light that passes through the upper polarized panel is
turned 90 degrees along with the spiral structure of the liquid crystal molecules and goes
through the polarized filter at the bottom. When impressed with voltage, liquid crystal
molecules are arranged vertically from the original spiral structure and the direction of the
light is not turned through 90 degrees. In this case, light that comes through the top
polarized panel may not go through the polarized panel at the bottom.
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 in 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 a 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 optimise 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

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
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 ratio 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 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 free 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.

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.
Important:
This apparatus is supplied with an approved
moulded 13A plug. To change a fuse in this type
of plug proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS 1362 5A,A.
S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket
outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate 3pin plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5A. If a plug without a fuse is
used, the fuse at the distribution board should
not be greater than 5A.
Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to
avoid a possible shock hazard should it be
inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
BLUE - "NEUTRAL" ("N")
BROWN - "LIVE" ("L")
GREEN & YELLOW - "EARTH" ("E")

Philips' LCD Panel Pixel Defect Policy
Philips strives to deliver the highest quality products. We use some of the industry's most advanced
manufacturing processes and practise stringent quality control. However, pixel or sub pixel defects
on the TFT LCD panels used in flat panel monitors are sometimes unavoidable. No manufacturer
can guarantee that all panels will be free from pixel defects, but Philips guarantees that any monitor
with an unacceptable number of defects will be repaired or replaced under warranty. This notice
explains the different types of pixel defects and defines acceptable defect levels for each type. In
order to qualify for repair or replacement under warranty, the number of pixel defects on a TFT LCD
panel must exceed these acceptable levels. For example, no more than 0.0004% of the sub pixels
on a 15" XGA monitor may be defective. Furthermore, Philips sets even higher quality standards for
certain types or combinations of pixel defects that are more noticeable than others. This policy is
valid worldwide.
Pixels and Sub pixels
A pixel, or picture element, is composed of three sub pixels in the primary colors of red, green and
blue. Many pixels together form an image. When all sub pixels of a pixel are lit, the three colored
subpixels together appear as a single white pixel. When all are dark, the three colored sub pixels
together appear as a single black pixel. Other combinations of lit and dark sub pixels appear as
single pixels of other colors.

Philips Pixel Defect Policy
Types of Pixel Defects
Pixel and sub pixel defects appear on the screen in different ways. There are two categories of pixel
defects and several types of sub pixel defects within each category.
Bright Dot Defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always lit or 'on'. These are the types of
bright dot defects:
One lit red, green or blue
sub pixel
Two adjacent lit sub pixels:
- Red + Blue = Purple
- Red + Green = Yellow
- Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)
Three adjacent lit sub pixels
(one white pixel)
Black Dot Defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always dark or 'off'. These are the types of
black dot defects:

Philips Pixel Defect Policy
One dark sub pixel Two or three adjacent dark sub pixels
Proximity of Pixel Defects
Because pixel and sub pixels defects of the same type that are near to one another may be more
noticeable, Philips also specifies tolerances for the proximity of pixel defects.
Pixel Defect Tolerances
In order to qualify for repair or replacement due to pixel defects during the warranty period, a TFT
LCD panel in a Philips flat panel monitor must have pixel or sub pixel defects exceeding the
tolerances listed in the following tables.
BRIGHT DOT DEFECTS ACCEPTABLE LEVEL
MODEL
300WN5
1 lit sub pixel 0
2 adjacent lit sub pixels 0
3 adjacent lit sub pixels (one white pixel) 0
