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 does 'refresh rate' mean in connection with an LCD monitor?
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 75Hz 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 by pressing of a single button – without the need to
navigate through OSD (On Screen Display) 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 between the monitor and AC outlet, and click a key on keyboard/mouse to wake up the PC.
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 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.
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 I change the color setting of my monitor?
A: Yes, you can change your color setting through OSD control as the following procedures,
1. Press "OK" to show the OSD (On Screen Display) menu
2. Press "Down Arrow" to select the option "color" then press "OK" to enter color setting, there are five settings as below.
a. 6500K; this setting features the panel closed to red-white color tone.
b. 9300K; this setting features the panel closed to blue-white color tone.
c. Original; this setting load the default panel setting in terms of color tone. (Note: different panel maker may feature a different color temperature*)
d. SRGB; this is a standard setting for ensuring correct exchange of colors between different device (e.g. digital cameras, monitors, printers,
scanners, etc.)
e. User Define; the user can choose his/her preference color setting by adjusting red, green, blue color.
Q: Can the Philips LCD Monitor be mounted on the wall?
A: Yes. Philips LCD monitors have this optional feature. Four standard VESA mount holes on the rear cover allows the user to mount the Philips
monitor on most of the VESA standard arms or accessories. We recommend to contact your Philips sales representative for more information.
