Description of the On Screen Display  
What is the On-Screen Display?  
On-Screen Display (OSD) is a feature in all Philips LCD monitors. It allows an end user to adjust  
screen performance or select functions of the monitors directly through an on-screen instruction  
window. A user friendly on screen display interface is shown as below :  
Basic and simple instruction on the control keys.  
In the OSD shown above users can press  
buttons at the front bezel of the monitor to move  
the cursor,  
to confirm the choice or change, and to adjust/select the change.  
The OSD Tree  
Below is an overall view of the structure of the On-Screen Display. You can use this as a reference  
when you want to work your way around the different adjustments later on.

On-Screen Display  
Note: 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.

A
Active matrix  
This is a kind of liquid crystal display structure in which switching transistors are attached to each  
pixel to control the on/off voltage. It produces a brighter and sharper display with a broader viewing  
angle than a passive matrix display. Also refer to TFT (thin film transistor).  
Amorphous silicon (a-Si)  
A semiconductor material that is used to make the thin film transistors (TFTs) layer of an active  
matrix LCD.  
Aspect ratio  
The width-to-height ratio of the active area of a display. In general, most monitors have an aspect  
ratio of 4:3. Wide monitors or TVs have an aspect ratio of 16:9 or 16:10.  
Backlight  
The light source for a transmissive LCD. There are two techniques used in nowaday LCD designs.  
Most TFT LCD panels use CCFLs (cold cathode fluorescent light) and a diffuser panel directly  
behind the liquid crystal layer. New technology using Light Emitting Drodes (LED) are still under  
development.  
Brightness  
The dimension of color that is referred to an achromatic scale, ranging from black to white, also  
called lightness or luminous reflectance. Because of confusion with saturation, the use of this term  
should be discouraged.

Glossary  
C
CCFL(cold cathode fluorescent light)  
These are the fluorescent light tubes providing the light for the LCD module. These tubes are  
generally very thin, approximately 2 mm in diameter.  
Chromaticity  
That part of color specification, which does not involve illuminance. Chromaticity is two-dimensional  
and specified by pairs of numbers such as dominant wavelength and purity.  
CIE (Commission International de I'Eclairage)  
The International Commission on Illumination, the primary international organization concerned with  
color and color measurement.  
Color temperature  
A measurement of the color of light radiated by an object while it is being heated. This  
measurement is express in terms of absolute scale, (degrees Kelvin). Lower Kelvin temperatures  
such as 2400° K are red; higher temperatures such as 9300° K are blue. Neutral temperature is  
white, at 6504° K. Philips monitors generally offers 9300° K, 6500° K, and user define.  
Contrast  
The luminance variation between light and dark areas in an image.  
Contrast ratio  
The ratio of luminance between the brightest white pattern and the darkest black pattern.

Glossary  
D
D-SUB  
A VGA Analog input connector. Your monitor comes with a D-Sub cable.  
Digital Visual Interface (DVI)  
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) specification provides a high-speed digital connection for visual  
data types that is display technology independent. The interface is primarily focused at providing a  
connection between a computer and its display device. The DVI specification meets the needs of all  
segments of the PC industry (workstation, desktop, laptop, etc.) and will enable these different  
segments to unite around one monitor interface specification.  
The DVI interface enables:  
1. Reduce signal loss and video noise in signal due to less signal conversion.  
2. Independent from display technology, and can be used on LCD, Plasma, LCOS, etc.  
3. Plug and play through hot plug detection, EDID and DDC2B.  
4. Digital and Analog support in a single connector (DVI-I only).  
E
Energy Star Computers Program  
An energy conservation program launched by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),  
promotes the manufacture and marketing of energy-efficient office automation equipment.  
Companies joining this program, must be willing to commit themselves to manufacture one or more  
products capable of going into a low -power state (< 30 W) either after a period of inactivity, or after  
a predetermined time selected by the user.

Glossary  
Gamma  
Screen luminance as a function of video voltage approximately follows a mathematical power  
function of the input video signal, the exponent of which is called gamma.  
Grayscale  
An achromatic scale ranging from black through a series of successively lighter grays to white.  
Such a series may be made up of steps, which appear to be equally distant from one another. If the  
8
Analog/ Digital converter is 8 bit, then the monitor can display at most 2 = 256 levels. For a color  
monitor, R.G.B. each color hads 256 levels. Thus, total color can display is 256x256x256= 16.7  
million.  
Hue  
The main attribute of a color that distinguishes it from other colors. For example, a color may have a  
green, yellow, or purple hue. Color defined as having hue are know as chromatic colors. White,  
black, and grays possess no hue.  
IPS (In Plane Switching)  
A technique of improving the viewing angle of an LCD where the liquid crystal molecules are  
switched in the plane of the LCD layer rather than vertical to it.

Glossary  
L
LCD (liquid crystal display)  
A display composed of liquid crystal suspended between two transparent sheets. The display is  
composed thousands of pixels which can be turned on or off with electrical stimulation. Thus,  
colorful images/texts can be generated.  
Liquid crystal  
The compound found in liquid crystal displays. Liquid crystal reacts predictably when electrically  
stimulated. This makes it the ideal compound to turn LCD pixels "on" or "off." Liquid crystal is  
sometimes abbreviated as LC.  
Luminance  
A measure of the brightness or luminous intensity of light, usually expressed in units of Candelas  
per square meter (cd/m2) or foot Lamberts. 1 fL=3.426 cd/m2.  
Nit  
A unit of luminance equal to 1 cd/m2 or 0.292 ftL.  
Pixel  
PICture Element; the smallest element on a computerized CRT or LCD image, and hence a display.  
Polarizer  
file:///D|/My%20Documents/dfu/170V6/english/170v6/glossary/glossary.htm (5 of 9)2006-02-27 10:33:36 AM  
   
Glossary  
A light filter which only allows light waves of a certain rotation through. Polarized material with  
perpendicular filtering is used in LCDs to enclose the liquid crystal. The liquid crystal is then used  
as the medium which twists the light waves 90° in order to allow the light to pass through or not.  
Refresh rate  
The number of times per second the screen is refreshed or redrawn. This number is usually stated  
in Hz (Hertz) or cycles per second. A rate of 60 Hz is equal to 60 tomes per second.  
S
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, open the OSD by pressing the OK button on the front of your monitor. Move the down  
button to go to Color and press OK again. Use the right button to go to sRGB. Then move the down  
button and press OK again to exit the OSD.  
After this, please do not change the brightness or contrast setting of your monitor. If you change  
either of these, the monitor will exit the sRGB mode and go to a color temperature setting of 6500K.

Glossary  
TFT(thin film transistor)  
Usually made from amorphous silicon (a-Si) and used as a switch to a charge storage device  
located below each sub-pixel on an active matrix LCD.  
U
USB or Universal Serial Bus  
A smart plug for PC peripherals. USB automatically determines resources (like driver software and  
bus bandwidth) required by peripherals. USB makes necessary resources available without user  
intervention.  
USB eliminates "case anxiety" -- the fear of removing the computer case to install add-on  
peripherals. USB also eliminates adjustment of complicated IRQ settings when installing  
new peripherals.  
USB does away with "port gridlock." Without USB, PCs are normally limited to one printer,  
two Com port devices (usually a mouse and modem), one Enhanced Parallel Port add-on  
(scanner or video camera, for example) and a joystick. More and more peripherals for  
multimedia computers arrive on the market every day. With USB, up to 127 devices can run  
simultaneously on a computer.  
USB permits "hot plug-in." There's no need to shut down, plug in, reboot and run set-up to  
install peripherals. And no need to go through the reverse process to unplug a device.  
In short, USB transforms today's "Plug-and-Pray" into true Plug-and-Play!  
Hub  
A Universal Serial Bus device that provides additional connections to the Universal Serial Bus.  
Hubs are a key element in the plug-and-play architecture of USB. The Figure shows a typical hub.  
Hubs serve to simplify USB connectivity from the user's perspective providing low cost and  
complexity.  
Hubs are wiring concentrators and enable the multiple attachment characteristics of USB.  
Attachment points are referred to as ports. Each hub converts a single attachment point into  
multiple attachment points. The architecture supports concatenation of multiple hubs.  
The upstream port of a hub connects the hub towards the host. Each of the other downstream ports  
of a hub allows connection to another hub or function. Hubs can detect, attach and detach at each  
downstream port and enable the distribution of power to downstream devices. Each downstream  
port can be individually enabled and configured at either full or low speed. The hub isolates low  
speed ports from full speed signaling.  
A hub consists of two portions: the Hub Controller and Hub Repeater. The repeater is a protocol-

controlled switch between the upstream port and downstream ports. It also has hardware support  
for reset and suspend/resume signaling. The controller provides the interface registers to allow  
communication to/from the host. Hub specific status and control commands permit the host to  
configure a hub and to monitor and control its ports.  
Device  
A logical or physical entity that performs a function. The actual entity described depends on the  
context of the reference. At the lowest level, device may refer to a single hardware component, as  
in a memory device. At a higher level, it may refer to a collection of hardware components that  
perform a particular function, such as a Universal Serial Bus interface device. At an even higher  
level, device may refer to the function performed by an entity attached to the Universal Serial Bus;  
for example, a data/FAX modem device. Devices may be physical, electrical, addressable, and  
logical.  
Downstream  
The direction of data flow from the host or away from the host. A downstream port is the port on a  
hub electrically farthest from the host that generates downstream data traffic from the hub.  
Downstream ports receive upstream data traffic.  
Upstream  
The direction of data flow towards the host. An upstream port is the port on a device electrically  
closest to the host that generates upstream data traffic from the hub. Upstream ports receive  
downstream data traffic.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)  
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 for Philips 17": 1280x1024 @60Hz.  
1. Unplug all cables, then connect your PC to the monitor that you used  
previously.  
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 setting tab, in box labeled 'desktop area', move the  
slidebar to 1280x1024 pixels (17").  
3. Open 'Advanced Properties' and set the Refresh Rate to 60Hz, then click OK.  
4. Restart your computer and repeat step 2 and 3 to verify that your PC is set at  
1280x1024@60Hz (17").  
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 should I do when screen shows: THIS IS 85HZ OVERDRIVE, CHANGE COMPUTER  
DISPLAY INPUT TO 1280 x 1024 @60HZ?  
A: It means the signal input from your PC is 85Hz -- outside the range that the  
monitor can display. New Generation LCD intelligent monitor capabilities temporarily  
override the overscan, providing you with 10 minutes to reset timing to recommended  
settings.  
Here's how:  
Go to your Windows Start menu. Select Settings, then Control Panel. Select Display.  
Move to Settings and click on the Advanced button. Under Adaptor, change the  
refresh rate to 56~75.  
You have 10 minutes to complete the operation; if you do not complete within 10  
minutes, power off and re-power on monitor to enter changes.  
Q: What does 'refresh rate' mean in connection with an LCD monitor?  
file:///D|/My%20Documents/dfu/170V6/english/170v6/safety/saf_faq.htm (1 of 8)2006-02-27 10:33:46 AM  
     
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)  
A: The refresh rate is of much less relevance for LCD monitors. LCD monitors display  
a stable, flicker-free image at 60Hz. There is no visible difference between 85Hz and  
60Hz.  
Q: What are the .inf and .icm files on the 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. Your 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 ( companion CD-ROM) included in this package. Monitor drivers (.inf and .  
icm files) will be installed automatically.  
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 Windows® Control Panel  
with the "Display properties".  
Q: What if I get lost when I am making monitor adjustments?  
A: Simply press the OK button, then select 'Reset' to recall all of the original factory  
settings.  
Q: What is the Auto function?  
A: The AUTO adjustment key restores the optimal screen position, phase and clock  
settings at the press of a single button – without the need to navigate through OSD  
menus and control keys.  
Note: Auto function is available in selected models only.  
Q: My Monitor has no power (Power LED does not light up). What should I do?  
A: Make sure the AC power cord is connected to the Monitor.  
Q: Will the LCD monitor accept an interlaced signal under PC models?  
A: No. If an Interlace signal is used, the screen displays both odd and even horizontal

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)  
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 of 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?  
A: A protective coating is applied to the surface of the LCD, which is durable to a  
certain extent (approximately up to the hardness of a 2H pencil). In general, it is  
recommended that the panel surface is not subject 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 allows 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.

Q: What is USB (Universal Serial Bus)?  
file:///D|/My%20Documents/dfu/170V6/english/170v6/safety/saf_faq.htm (4 of 8)2006-02-27 10:33:46 AM  
 
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)  
A: Think of USB as a smart plug for PC peripherals. USB automatically determines  
resources (like driver software and bus bandwidth) required by peripherals. USB  
makes necessary resources available without user intervention. There are three main  
benefits of USB. USB eliminates "case anxiety," the fear of removing the computer  
case to install circuit board cards -- that often requires adjustment of complicated IRQ  
settings -- for add-on peripherals. USB does away with "port gridlock." Without USB,  
PCs are normally limited to one printer, two Com port devices (usually a mouse and  
modem), one Enhanced Parallel Port add-on (scanner or video camera, for example),  
and a joystick. More and more peripherals for multimedia computers come on the  
market every day. With USB, up to 127 devices can run simultaneously on one  
computer. USB permits "hot plug-in." No need to shut down, plug in, reboot and run  
set up to install peripherals. No need to go through the reverse process to unplug a  
device. Bottom line: USB transforms today's "Plug-and-Pray" into true Plug-and-Play!  
Please refer to glossary for more information about USB.  
Q: What is a USB hub ?  
A: A USB hub provides additional connections to the Universal Serial Bus. A hub's  
upstream port connects a hub to the host, usually a PC. Multiple downstream ports in  
a hub allows connection to another hub or device, such as a USB keyboard, camera  
or printer.  
LCD Panel Technology  
Q: What is a Liquid Crystal Display?  
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-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 colored with an RGB pattern to make the color 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.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)  
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?  
A: On each column and row of the TFT LCD panel, a data source drive and a gate  
drive are attached, respectively. The TFT drain of each cell is connected to the  
electrode. The molecular arrangement of liquid crystal elements differ according 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 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

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)  
method.  
Q: Why is 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 optimize  
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 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  
ration 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 a 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.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)  
Q: What is the CE mark?  
A: The CE (Conformité Européenne) mark is required to be displayed on all regulated  
products offered for sale on the European market. This 'CE' mark means that a  
product complies with the relevant European Directive. A European Directive is a  
European 'Law' that relates to health, safety, environment and consumer protection,  
much the same as the U.S. National Electrical Code and UL Standards.  
Q: Does the LCD monitor conform to general safety standards?  
A: Yes. Philips LCD monitors conform to the guidelines of MPR-II and TCO 99/03  
standards for the control of radiation, electromagnetic waves, energy reduction,  
electrical safety in the work environment and recyclability. The specification page  
provides detailed data on safety standards.

TCO '99 Information  
Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO '99 approved  
and labeled product! Your choice has provided you with a product  
developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed  
to reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further  
development of environmentally adapted electronics products.  
Why do we have environmentally labeled computers?  
In many countries, environmental labeling has become an established method for encouraging the  
adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and  
other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are used  
both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily  
recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner  
or later enter nature.  
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are  
important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since  
all methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and  
climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in  
offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.  
What does labeling involve?  
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for international and  
environmental labeling of personal computers. The labeling scheme was developed as a joint effort  
by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska  
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and Statens  
Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration).  
Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission  
of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical and fire safety.  
The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals,  
brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other  
things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an  
environmental policy which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its  
operational policy.  
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period  
of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of  
time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.  
Labeled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the reduction  
of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and good usability.

Environmental Requirements  
Flame retardants  
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their  
purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer  
casing can consist of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride,  
and those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs.  
Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise  
to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the  
bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers  
fear that disturbances in fetus development may occur.  
The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must  
not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are  
allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.  
Cadmium**  
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the color-generating layers of certain computer  
displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99  
requirement states that batteries, the color-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or  
electronics components must not contain any cadmium.  
Mercury**  
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and is  
toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any  
mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics  
components associated with the labeled unit.  
CFCs (freons)

Regulatory Information  
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the  
manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed  
circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere,  
causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with increased risks e.g. skin cancer  
(malignant melanoma) as a consequence.  
Lead**  
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the  
nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO'99 requirement  
permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.  
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms.  
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are bio-accumulative.

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")  
1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be  
connected to the terminal in the plug which is  
marked with the letter "E" or by the Earth symbol  
or coloured GREEN or GREEN AND  
YELLOW.  
2. The BLUE wire must be connected to the  
terminal which is marked with the letter "N" or  
coloured BLACK.  
3. The BROWN wire must be connected to the  
terminal which marked with the letter "L" or  
coloured RED.  
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain  
that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of  
the lead - not simply over the three wires.

Philips Pixel Defect Policy  
Philips Pixel Defect Policy  
Philips' Flat Panel Monitors Pixel Defect Policy  
Philips strives to deliver the highest quality products. We use some of the industry's most advanced  
manufacturing processes and practice 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  
sub pixels 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.  
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 Bright dot defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always lit or 'on'. That  
is, a bright dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the screen when the monitor displays a dark pattern.  
There are the types of bright dot defects:  
file:///D|/My%20Documents/dfu/170V6/english/170v6/product/pixel.htm (1 of 4)2006-02-27 10:33:56 AM  
   
Philips Pixel Defect Policy  
Two adjacent lit sub pixels:  
- Red + Blue = Purple  
- Red + Green = Yellow  
One lit red, green or blue  
sub pixel  
Three adjacent lit sub pixels  
(one white pixel)  
- Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)  
A red or blue bright dot must be more than 50 percent brighter than neighboring dots  
while a green bright dot is 30 percent brighter than neighboring dots.  
Black Dot Defects Black dot defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always dark or 'off'. That  
is, a dark dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the screen when the monitor displays a light pattern.  
These are the types of black dot defects:  
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.
