Mounting
The display can be placed on a table stand or wall-mounted. The table stand is
supplied as standard; the mounting bracket can be purchased separately. This
bracket can also be used as an adapter in combination with universal wall
supports, ceiling supports or universal floor stands (e.g. Vogel’s Professional).
Fitting the table stand
Only use the stand supplied with the set, making sure that the fasteners are
properly tightened. Never use a makeshift stand, or legs fixed using wood screws.
Using the mounting bracket
The standard VESA mount holes on the mounting bracket allow the user to install
the Philips 3D display on any VESA MIS-E compatible wall support, ceiling
support or floor stand.
Important: Use a VESA MIS-E compatible support suitable for the weight of this
3D Display.
Always secure the mounting bracket to the display using 4 screws. This helps
avoid potentially dangerous situations when lifting the display out of the mounting
bracket.
Positioning the display
For the best results, choose a place where there is no direct light shining onto the
screen, and which is some distance away from radiators or other sources of heat.
Leave a space of at least 10 cm all around the display for ventilation, making sure
that curtains, cupboards etc. cannot obstruct the airflow through the ventilation
apertures. The display is intended for use in a public places only and should
never be operated or stored in excessively hot or humid conditions.

The 42-inch 3D display from Philips 3D Solutions offers state-of-the-art lenticular lens design
creating a variety of distinct autostereoscopic views. By this the viewer will benefit from the
multi-user experience along with a large comfort zone. The 42-inch 3D display is specifically
designed for a wide range of applications such as digital signage and information provision.
The display is featuring superior lens design and 3D rendering relying on proven, highly
optimized and accurate manufacturing processes. The lens design minimizes cross talk,
creating highly distinct views. The 42-3D6C01/00 and 42-3D6C02/00 are designed for optimal
viewing comfort. The 42-3D6W01/00 and 42-3D6W02/00 are designed for maximum WOW
viewing experience.
The display’s 2D-plus-depth rendering interface is open, allowing maximum flexibility. No
matter what sort of Philips 3D Solutions display is used, the content does not need
regeneration. What’s more, the rendering hardware sits inside the display, allowing for
maximum optimisation of the optical system by embedded processing.
Provided with the 42-inch 3D display are the 3DS Media Player and the Display Control Tool.
The Display Control Tool can be used to set all kinds of visualisation parameters for the 3D
display; examples are the WOW offset, the WOW range, the contrast, and the brightness. The
3DS Media Player is used for play-out for the Philips 3D Solutions 3D displays. It takes care
that the display switches to 3D mode with the appropriate 3D visualization settings.
A digital version of the 3D Display User Manual can be downloaded from our website:

2.3.2 Environmental conditions of inspection
3D Solutions
The environmental conditions and visual inspection shall be conducted as below.
Ambient temperature in the range 15-25 [
Humidity in the range 25-75 [%RH].
The functional inspection distance of the monitor (measured between the monitor and the
inspector’s sight) should be at least 3.0 [m].
The maximal viewing angle relative from the normal direction of the module/monitor is
specified according to ±Y degree to the front surface of the display in vertical direction, and ±X
degree to the front surface of the display in horizontal direction. The values below are the
following: X = 15, Y = 45.
Ambient illumination:
External appearance inspection in the range 400-600 [Lux].
Light on inspection in the range 100-200 [Lux].

2.3.3 Classification of defects
The defects are classified as major and minor defects. The definition of defects is described as
follows:
Major defect:
The defect may cause functional failure, or reduce the usability of the product for its purpose.
For example: electrical failure, deformation, etc.
Minor defect:
The defect does not reduce the usability of the product for its purpose. For example: dot
defect, etc.
The judgement of the major and minor defects shall be according to the table with
classification of defects below.
Inspection item Description Defect type
Vertical line Abnormal line appears in vertical
direction.
Horizontal line Abnormal line appears in horizontal
direction.
Cross line Abnormal cross line appears in display. Major
No display No signal output in display.Ma
Irregular display
Dot defect Bright dot, dark dot or dot adjacent
Foreign material Foreign material appears in display Minor
2.3.4 Inspection Criteria
Definition of dot defect:
If the size of a dot defect is larger than 0.5 times a single pixel, it can be regarded as one dot
defect
Bright dot: Dot appears bright and the size is fixed in a black pattern.
Dark dot: Dot appears dark and the size is fixed in pure red, green and blue pattern.
2.3.4.1 Display defects
The size of a circular area is defined by the average of the size along the horizontal axis (=a)
and the vertical axis (=b), i.e. D=(a+b)/2. The size of a lint/scratch is defined by its with (=W)
and its length (=L).

3.2 Image retention
IMPORTANT: Always display alternating content with 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, caused by the
shortcomings inherent in the LCD technology. Please note that the after-image symptom
cannot be repaired and is not covered under warranty.
NEVER (dis)connect DVI when your PC or Display is on.
