About this User Manual

This manual contains all information you will need to initially install and operate your new TV. Also read the help texts which are being displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Safety warnings

Do not insert the power plug in a wall socket or hang the TV to the wall before all connections are made.

• Place or hang the TV wherever you want, but make sure that air can circulate freely through the ventilation slots.

• Do not install the TV in a confined space such as a book case or a similar unit.

• To prevent any unsafe situations,no naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed in the vicinity.

• Avoid heat,direct sunlight and exposure to rain or water.

• The equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

Do not touch, push or rub or strike the screen with anything hard as this may scratch,mar or damage the screen permanently. And please do not rub with dust clothes with chemical treatment. Do not touch the surface with bare hands or greasy cloth (some cosmetics are detrimental to the screen). Unplug the TV before cleaning the screen. When the surface becomes dusty, please wipe gently with absorbent cotton or other soft materials like chamois soaks. Do not use acetone, toluene and alcohol because they cause chemical damage. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.Wipe off saliva or water drops as soon as possible.Their long time contact with the screen causes deformations and colour fading.

A characteristic of LCD and Plasma Panels is that displaying the same image for a long time can cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen. Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen. Examples of stationary images (this is not an allinclusive list, you may encounter others in your viewing):

• TV and DVD menus: listings of DVD disk content;

• Black bars: when black bars appear at the left and right side of the screen, it is recommended to change to a picture format so that the picture fills the entire screen;

• TV channel logo: present a problem if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of the screen;

• Stock market stickers: presented at the bottom of the TV screen;

• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays: bright and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on the TV screen. Examples of still pictures also include logos, computer images, time display, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode, static images or characters, etc.

• Philips Royal Electronics manufactures and sells many products targeted at consumers, which, like any electronic apparatus, in general have the ability to emit and receive electromagnetic signals.

• One of Philips’ leading Business Principles is to take all necessary health and safety measures for our products, to comply with all applicable legal requirements and to stay well within the EMF standards applicable at the time of producing the products.

• Philips is committed to develop, produce and market products that cause no adverse health effects.

• Philips confirms that if its products are handled properly for their intended use, they are safe to use according to scientific evidence available today.

• Philips plays an active role in the development of international EMF and safety standards, enabling Philips to anticipate further developments in standardisation for early integration in its products.

Your TV display is made with high-precision technology with a high number of colour pixels. Although it has effective pixels of 99,999% or more, black dots or bright points of light (red, green or blue) may appear constantly on the screen.This is a structural property of the display (within common industry standards) and is not a malfunction.

Tip:reduce contrast and brightness when viewing.

Carefully pay attention to these remarks. The warranty does not apply to damage caused by not taking into account the above mentioned warnings on stationary images.

ETHERNET

COMMON INTERFACE

TOP

To r eceive scrambled DTV signals you will need a CA (Conditional Access) module and a Smart card provided by the service provider. A CA module can enable additional services, for example Pay TV. Contact your Common Interface service provider to get more information about these modules. Although CA module types may vary dependent on the manufacturer, each one of the CA modules supports a certain kind of encryption system.Your TV supports CA modules to work with the DVB-T standard. Note that a smart card may only be valid for a single broadcast channel. CA modules and smart cards are neither supplied nor optional accessories from Philips. The CA module is responsible for the messages and texts on screen. In case of failure or strange behaviour, you must call your CI service broadcaster.

Insert a CA module

< Insert the specified Conditional Access module

into the Common Interface slot as far as it will go. It may take a few minutes before the CA module is activated and service information is downloaded.

To access common interface applications, see TV menu,Adjust feature menu settings, Common Interface, p. 27.

Warning:switch off your TV before any module is inserted in the Common Interface slot.

Use the Common Interface slot

Warning: when you connect the CA module incorrectly, it may damage the card and the TV. After inserting a card, leave it in the slot permanently. Do not remove it from the slot unless asked to do so. For example, your card has to be in the slot when your CI service broadcaster wants to download new information to the smart card. Once the CA module is removed, your TV will no longer decrypt scrambled digital DVB-T channels.

Note: this functionality is only available in certain countries.

Annex 2 - Philips TV-Slideshow Format with background music

Introduction

This document explains how to make a Philips slideshow file with background audio. Be aware that the content of this document is addressing technical or software skilled users. To start the slideshow open the slideshow file in the Multimedia browser of your TV.

1. Press the

MENU/BROWSE key on the remote control after having inserted a USB device and

switched on the TV.

2. Go to where you stored the slideshow file (.alb) on your portable memory.

3. Select the slideshow file and press the

OK key to start the slide show.

4. To stop a slide show, press the ‡ key.

General Rules

- The slideshow will use plain ASCII XML syntax to allow the creation and editing of the slideshow files using simple tools.

- All references to network content must be based on the global address of the content.

- Content on a Portable Memory (PM) doesn't have a global address; as a result content from a PM can never be referenced from a slideshow not stored on the PM itself.

-To maintain portability, a slideshow stored on a PM should ONLY reference content on the same PM. Referencing global addresses can result in inconsistencies if the PM is used on a nonnetworked CE device. The latter is however not forbidden, it is only a recommendation.

- It is preferable that URL’s referencing PM content are based on a relative path starting from the directory where the slideshow is stored. This path includes the device or drive name of the PM. An absolute path to content will also be supported.

-relative path: pictures\test1.jpg, tamper.jpg, ..\new\bird.jpg, …

- absolute path: USB1:\pictures1\foo_bar.jpg, C:\f1.jpg, \organization.jpg, …

General Format

The format and syntax below will be used to create the slideshow file (simple ascii text) with the extension .alb (.ALB). Examples: slshow1.alb, summer_holiday_2004.ALB, test.alb, … The following syntax should be used to create the text file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-885h9-1" ?> <philips-slideshow version="1.0" >

<title>Title of the slideshow</title> <audio>audio_url</audio> <slide-duration>30</slide-duration> <slides>

Annex 3 - Philips TV - Portable memory and USB issues

Digital Content Issues

• See the supplied separate Connected Planet guide, Annex 4: Supported file formats

Portable Memory Issues

• The following memory cards are supported by the digital media reader:

- CompactFlash Card (Type I & II) (CF)

- IBM Microdrive

- Memory Stick + Memory Stick Pro

- SecureDigital Card (SD)

- SmartMedia Card (SM)

- MultiMedia Card (MMC)

• XC cards are supported through an external XD compatible card reader (not supplied with the TV) connected to the USB connector.The same holds for other future memory cards.

• Do not apply excessive force when inserting a memory card into the digital media reader. If the memory card doesn’t fit or isn’t detected by the TV,try to flip over the card and re-insert it.

• When inserting multiple cards at the same time some card combinations will work. It is however recommended to insert maximum one memory card at the same time.

Digital Camera Issues

If a USB connection between your digital camera and the TV isn’t working, you can try the solutions below to resolve your problem.

• Make sure your digital camera is switched on and verify if the configuration of your digital camera is correct (see the manual of your digital camera for more information).

• Some digital cameras allow you to switch off the USB interface. Make sure that the USB interface is switched on before connecting to the TV.

• Remove the memory card from your digital camera and insert it directly into the digital media reader on the right side of your TV.

• If you have a digital camera with only internal memory (no removable memory) you can try to copy the content manually to a memory card or a USB memory device using a personal computer.

• Some digital cameras allow you to switch between PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) or “PC Link” and USB Mass Storage or “PC Drive”. Make sure that you select USB Mass Storage or “PC Drive” on your digital camera.

• If your camera supports different interface settings be sure to try them one by one or contact the reseller of your camera to find out the correct setting.

USB Memory Device Issues

•Devices connected to the USB port of your TV must be “Mass Storage Class” compliant. If your device (digital camera. MP3 player, portable harddisk, …) is not “Mass Storage Class” compliant it will not be detected by the content browser of the TV.

• The following subsets of the Mass Storage Class specification are supported:

- The implementation of the TV is based on the “Universal Serial Bus Mass Storage Class Specification Overview” (v1.2, June 23, 2003) including all documents referenced by the document. The document can be found on the USB standardisation website (www.usb.org).

- Full support of the USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport (bInterfaceProtocol = 50h).

- Full support of SubClass Code = 05h; SFF-8070i spec.

- Full support of SubClass Code = 06h; SCSI transparent command set.

•For large USB memory devices, when you are in the Content Browser, it may take a long time before you can access your files.

• When using a USB portable harddisk: Due to the high power consumption of the harddisk, it is advised to use the external power supply of the portable harddisk to guarantee proper working under all conditions.

Notes:

- the latest version of this document can be found on the Philips support website (www.philips.com/support);

- the software of your TV is upgradeable. If you have problems first check if you have the latest software installed on your TV. The latest software, together with instructions, can be found on the Philips support website. Use the type number of your TV to find this documentation and other related files.

- Philips can’t be held responsible neither for any errors in the content of this document nor for any problems as a result of the content in this document. Errors reported to Philips will be adapted and published on the Philips support website as soon as possible.
