DesXcape 150DM as Desktop Monitor 

Analog and Digital video input

When you have different video signal coming from the VGA port and the DVI-D port, the signal
from DVI-D port is automatically chosen as the preferred signal for video display. You may choose
to display the video signal from VGA port by using 

INPUT SELECTION

from the OSD menu.

For more information about the OSD menu, please refer to OSD functions in the 

Optimize and

Customize

chapter.

Working with an optional wireless keyboard

Setting up Wireless Keyboard

The optional Philips DesXcape 150DM wireless keyboard gives
you the benefits of an additional input tool that complements
DesXcape 150DM’s built in on screen keyboard. The Wireless
Keyboard uses a built-in radio frequency module to communi-
cate directly to your DesXcape 150DM. In order to comple-
ment – not interfere with – your DesXcape experience, key-
board frequency is different than the frequency employed by
DesXcape 150DM to communicate the host computer.

Installing the optional wireless keyboard

With your DesXcape 150DM nearby, slide and lift to remove
the battery cover of your wireless keyboard. Load four AAA
size batteries into the keyboard.
Replace the cover over the
batteries and slide the cover
back into place. With batter-
ies loaded, the keyboard auto-
matically searches for your
DesXcape 150DM and, in a
few seconds, configures itself to
work with DesXcape 150DM.

On rare occasions when the automatic configuration process doesn’t connect, restart the search process by pressing
the Connection Reset button on the front panel of the keyboard and then Keyboard Connection Reset button on the
left-hand rear of your DesXcape 150DM. Both your DesXcape 150DM and the keyboard will try to find each other
and automatically configure themselves.

Using Wireless  Keyboard

The Wireless Keyboard functions exactly like a normal key-
board.A touch pad below the keypad allows you to draw lines
or point to items on the Windows desktop. The left touch pad
button functions like left clicking a mouse and the right touch
pad button functions like right clicking a mouse.

Optimize and Customize

DesXcape 150DM as Wireless Monitor

Optimize wireless signal strength

Here is a quick summary of ways you can optimize your wireless signal strength:

-

Keep as few things as possible between your DesXcape 150DM and the wireless network adap-
tor. Large metal objects are especially prone to creating signal degradation.

-

Avoid working in the vicinity of interference creating devices such as 2.4GHz cordless phones,
microwave ovens and Bluetooth devices.

Using your DesXcape 150M antenna

-

Pull up the DesXcape 150DM antenna from its housing and adjust the antenna direction for
best signal quality.

Optimize wireless display performance

When it is on the base station, DesXcape 150DM supports all PC applications. When it is detached
from the base station, most applications run flawlessly. However, at times there are few exceptions.

Sometimes Internet streaming audio and video may not run smoothly on DesXcape 150DM in its
wireless mode. This is most likely due to poor wireless signal quality, large video screen size, or too
