Smart insert
Professional PC's are part of most public
signage
installations. Quite often they add
additional depth to the public display and a lot
of cable clutter. This public display contains a
Smart insert in the backcover that will fit many
professional small form factor PC's. In addition
it offers provisions for efficient cable
management.
SmartPower
The backlight intensity can be controlled and
pre-se
t by the system to reduce the power
consumption by up to 50%, which saves
substantially on energy costs.
Full HD LCD display 1920x1080p
This display has a resolution that is referred to
as
Full HD. The state-of-the-art LCD screen
technology has the full high-definition
widescreen resolution of 1080 progressive
lines, each with 1920 pixels. This allows the
best possible picture quality for HD input
signals with up to 1080 lines. It produces
brilliant flicker-free progressive scan pictures
with optimum brightness and superb colors.
This vibrant and sharp image will provide you
with an enhanced viewing experience.
Designed for 24/7 operation
Because business never sleeps, our signage
disp
lays are designed for 24/7 use. Taking
advantage of superior components to ensure a
higher level of quality, you can count on this
range of models for complete around-theclock reliability.
Automatic brightness control
The adjustment of display settings to
corre
spond with ambient light without user
intervention.
Advanced anti image sticking
Static images left on-screen for extended
p
eriods of time may leave a "ghost image" or
image sticking effect on LCD displays.
Although image sticking in LCD displays is not
permanent, you want to prevent this to
happen, especially in locations where content
is shown 24/7.
Remote Management:: RS232
Remote Management allows the user to
control
and adjust the displays remotely via the
RS232 protocol. Using CEC commands, you
are able to have full control over all the
displays in your signage network at any time.
Compliant with RoHS standards
Philips designs and produces display products
i
n compliance with strict Restriction of
Hazardous Substances (RoHS) standards that
restrict lead and other toxic substances that
can harm the environment.
