system. Please contact your Philips sales representative 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
and Vista.
Q: What is USB (Universal Serial Bus)?
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
file:///D|/songaiyu/PHILIPS/PHILIPS%20230C1-081205%20Fian/lcd/manual/ENGLISH/PRODUCT/safety/saf_faq.htm (5 of 9)2008/12/18 上午 10:33:50
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
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: 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: 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
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
file:///D|/songaiyu/PHILIPS/PHILIPS%20230C1-081205%20Fian/lcd/manual/ENGLISH/PRODUCT/safety/saf_faq.htm (6 of 9)2008/12/18 上午 10:33:50
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
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 low 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.

Regulatory Information
Information for UK only
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDING.
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 3-pin 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 - "GROUND" ("G")
1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be connected to
the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "G"
or by the Ground 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.

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 19"
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.
file:///D|/songaiyu/PHILIPS/PHILIPS%20230C1-081205%20Fian/lcd/manual/ENGLISH/PRODUCT/product/PIXEL.HTM (1 of 4)2008/12/18 上午 11:05:05
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 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:

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.

Glossary
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 Diodes (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.
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.

D-SUB
A VGA Analog input connector. Your monitor comes with a D-Sub cable.
Digital Visual Interface (DVI) (available for selective models)
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:

Glossary
Such a series may be made up of steps, which appear to be equally distant from one another. If the
Analog/ Digital converter is 8 bit, then the monitor can display at most 28 = 256 levels. For a color
monitor, R.G.B. each color hads 256 levels. Thus, total color can display is 256x256x256= 16.7
million.
H
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.
I
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.
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.

SmartManage Lite
SmartManage Lite is a system for monitoring, managing and checking status of display devices
designed to meet the specific needs of growing small and medium-size businesses that minimizes
costs and maximizes IT staff efficiency by remotely controlling key display settings, providing status
reports, compiling usage data, overseeing energy consumption and deterring thefts.
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.

TrueVision
TrueVision is industry-leading, proprietary Philips testing and algorithm technology for monitor
adjustment and fine tuning, an extensive process that ensures ultimate display performance in
compliance with a standard four-times more stringent than Microsoft's Vista requirements from each
and every monitor that leaves the factory - not just a few review samples. Only Philips goes to these
lengths to deliver this exacting level of color accuracy and display quality in every new monitor.
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.

Glossary
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.

Glossary
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.
