201B Product Information
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. Use the down
button to go to Color temperature and press OK again. Then move the down button to go to sRGB
and press OK again.
Exit this OSD.
After this, please don't 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 9300K.
For more information on sRGB, please visit:
www.srgb.com

11. What is refresh rate?
file:///D|/EDFU/crt_19/edoc/english/FAQ.HTM (3 of 14)7/19/2004 4:10:41 PM

Frequently Asked Questions
"Refresh rate" describes the number of times an entire screen is vertically scanned each second. In other
words: If a monitor's refresh rate is 85 Hz, its screen is refreshed - or vertically scanned - 85 times per
second. A higher the refresh rate means better image stability and less flicker. A high refresh rate helps
users who work long hours in front of a monitor avoid eye fatigue and stress. To change the refresh rate,
go into "Start/Settings / Control Pannel / Display / Properties / Setting/Advance/Adaptor" Windows settings
of the computer, the monitor will automatically adjust itself to the video card.
12. Why does the picture on the screen appear to flicker?
A low refresh rate or electrical interference typically causes flickering in the picture. Possible solutions
include the following:
● Verify that the proper drivers are installed for your video card
● Make sure that all electrical devices (such as mobile phones) are at least 1m from the monitor
● Place the monitor in another physical location away from electrical interference
● Adjust the refresh rate to 75hz or higher.
13. How do I adjust my monitor's resolution?
Available resolutions are determined by the capabilities of your video card and graphic driver. Under
Windows '95, you may select the desired available resolution through the 'Display properties/Settings'
menu.
14. How can I adjust the size, position and rotation of my screen?
Depending on the model you own, you can use your CustoMax Software, On Screen Display (OSD) or
control knobs located on the monitor.
15. What if I get lost when making monitor adjustments?

Color temperature
A way of describing the color of a radiating source in terms of the temperature (in degrees Kelvin) of
a black body radiating with the same dominant frequency as the source.
Most Philips monitors offer the possibility of setting the color temperature to any desired value.
Contrast
The ratio between the brightness of the brightest and darkest parts of a picture. The darkest part of
file:///D|/EDFU/crt_19/edoc/english/GLOSSARY/GLOSSARY.HTM (2 of 22)7/19/2004 4:10:43 PM

Glossary
a picture is set by the brightness of the unexcited phosphor, which is governed by the degree with
which ambient light is reflected. Contrast is therefore reduced in conditions of high ambient light
levels. Black Matrix tubes reflect less ambient light so exhibit higher contrast than other tubes.
Convergence error
Bean misalignment causing one or more of the three beams passing through the wrong aperture in
the shadow mask and striking a phosphor dot in the wrong triad.
Convergence error is expressed in mm often at three well-defined points on the screen, designated
A, B and C (see figure ). Also known as misconvergence.
Points where convergence error is specified

Convergence-error correction
A method of correcting for convergence error to insure that all three beams land simultaneously in
the same triad. This is usually accomplished by means of special convergence-error correction coils
in the deflection yoke.

Degaussing
The procedure of demagnetizing the shadow mask and associated metal parts of a picture tube at
switch-on to minimize picture distortion. This is usually accomplished by means of a special
degaussing coil through which a decaying alternating current is passed to generate an alternating
magnetic field that gradually decays to demagnetize the tube. Some monitors offer a manual
degaussing facility that can be activated at any time.
Digital control
Microprocessor-based digital control of picture parameters and video modes for complete control of
picture settings and modes and instant recall of all settings at the push of a button. This is a very
advanced feature that allows the user to switch to any required mode at any instant without having
to spend time readjusting the picture. It is currently available in most Philips monitors.
Dot pitch
The shortest distance between two phosphor dots of the same color on the screen. The smaller the
dot pitch, the better the resolution of the monitor.

Glossary
two important standards both derived from regulations originally laid down by Swedish authorities.
MPR-II
The standard originally proposed by the Swedish National Board of Measurement and Testing. It
set maximum levels of electromagnetic radiation emitted by monitors, and has now been adopted
as a world standard. MPR-II defines maximum permitted electrostatic, magnetic and electric field
levels measured at a distance of 50 cm from the center of the monitor (see table).
TCO
In 1991, the Swedish Tjänstemannens Central Organization (TCO, Swedish confederation of
Professional Employees ) set a standard even more severe than MPR-II, especially for alternating
electric fields (AEF). The TCO standard is more severe since not only are the permitted field levels
reduced compared with MPR-II, but the measuring distance is also reduced (see table).
Electromagnetic radiation standards
EMI (Electrical Magnetic Interference)
The electrical and/or magnetic radiation coming from the working electrical or electronic equipment.
EMS (Electrical Magnetic Sustainment)
The ability of electrical or electronic equipment to function properly in the environment with electrical
and/or magnetic interference.

F
Flicker
Very rapid variations in picture intensity caused by the finite time required for the electron beam to
scan a picture onto the screen. Two kinds of flicker occur: line flicker caused by the electron beam
scanning-in each line of the picture; and frame flicker (or field flicker if the picture is interlaced)
caused by the frame repetition rate of 50 frames/second. Frame flicker is noticeable with GUI and
DTP software (which have a light background), and can be very disturbing, especially for those who
work regularly with displays - contributing to eye strain, headaches, visual blurring, stress, etc. The

Horizontal scanning frequency
Also called line frequency and expressed in kHz, it is the number of video lines written on the
screen every second (from left to right). The higher the horizontal scanning frequency, the better the
resolution (i.e., the higher the resolution and/or the higher the refresh rate).

INF file (Information File)
Information (INF) files store information in a specific format. The set-up functions retrieve
information from the INF file to use when performing installation operations. Examples of the type of
information stored in an INF file include INI and registry changes, file names, and locations of the
source files on source media.
Interlaced/non-interlaced
Interlaced.
The method of writing a picture on the screen by initially writing all even lines and subsequently
writing all odd lines of the picture. Result: The complete picture is composed of two interlaced half
pictures (or fields). With interlacing, a vertical (or field) frequency of 50 Hz means a picture (or
frame) frequency of 25 Hz.
Non-interlaced.
The method of writing a picture on the screen by successive video lines of the picture so that a full
frame is written onto the screen in one vertical sweep of the beams. With a non-interlaced display, a
vertical frequency of 50 Hz means a picture (or frame) frequency of 50 Hz. At any given resolution,
non-interlaced modes are preferable to interlaced modes; however, generation of non-interlaced
modes is more expensive.

Alternating fields generated by the deflection yoke. These are subject to increasing attention,
notably by governing authorities, the trade and the press. Although there is no scientific evidence
that monitor emissions are harmful, much effort has gone into reducing emissions on the principle
of better safe than sorry. Currently, there are two areas of interest: very-low frequency (VLF)
electric and magnetic fields extending from 2 kHz to 400 kHz, and extreme low frequency (ELF)
fields extending from 5 Hz to 2 kHz.

M
Moiré effect
A fringe pattern arising from the interference between two superimposed line patterns.
In a monitor it comes from the interference between the shadow mask pattern and the video
information (video moiré), and between the shadow mask pattern and the horizontal line pattern
(scan moiré). It shows itself as wavy patterns on the screen and becomes more noticeable as
monitor resolution increases. Since the video signal varies continuously, little can be done about
video moiré. Scan moiré depends on the horizontal scanning frequency and can be alleviated by
appropriate choice of frequency. Autoscan (MultiSync) monitors, which operate over a range of
scanning frequencies, may sometimes exhibit moiré in certain video modes.

OSD (On Screen Display)
The feature that allows an end user to adjust screen performance and parameters of monitors
directly through an on-screen instruction window. See CustoMax in CrystalClear section.
Overscan
The practice in which areas without useful video information are scanned outside the visible screen
area in order to make maximum use of the screen for display of active video information. This
practice is occasionally necessary because some video cards generate a video pattern that is
smaller than the visible screen area, resulting in an image that is smaller (and less legible) than it
needs to be.

Parallelogram Distortion
See Geometric distortion.
Phosphor
Generic name for the class of substances that exhibit luminescence. To produce a picture on
screen, phosphors are deposited on the inner surface of the picture-tube screen and excited into
luminescence by the electron beam. Typical examples of phosphors are P22 medium short-
persistence phosphor and EBU high-color-saturation phosphor.
Pin-cushion Distortion
See Geometric distortion.
Pixel
Abbreviation for picture element, the smallest element of the picture that can be displayed on the
screen. The smaller the pixel size, the better the resolution of the monitor. Pixel size is determined
by the size of the electron spot on the screen and not necessarily by the phosphor dot pitch (the
size of the triad). Thus, a monitor with a large electron spot covering several triads can exhibit poor
resolution even though its dot pitch is small.
Pixel frequency
The number of pixels that can be written in a video line per second.

ARAS is one of the most effective anti-reflection/anti-static screen treatments currently available. It
is composed of a multi-layer structure of transparent dielectric material that suppresses specular
reflections by broadband interference effects at the screen surface. Anti-static properties are
provided by a single conductive layer within the multi-layer structure.
With ARAS, the intensity of reflected light is reduced from around 4.5% of the incident light (the
reflectivity of uncoated screens) to less than 0.5%. ARAS also has a major advantage over other
screen treatments: It doesn't diffuse or scatter reflected light, so picture contrast and sharpness
remain completely unimpaired. It's also easy to clean and tough enough to withstand commercially
available cleaning agents.
The ARAS coating reflects only about 0.5% of the incident light.

A card equipped with a character or graphic generator and video memory, which maps to the
screen. A microprocessor scans video memory and translates bit information from the computer
into displayable video signals for the monitor. These cards comply with various standards that
determine the nature and quality of the display.
VGA (Video Graphics Array), introduced in 1987, was the first analog card. It offered still higher
resolution than EGA: 640 X 480 pixels for graphics and 720 x 400 pixels for text, and a color palette
of 256 colors. VGA could also emulate EGA and CGA.
Super VGA, devised by VESA in 1989, offers a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels.
Extended VGA, introduced by VESA in 1991, offers a top resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels (non-
interlaced) and a refresh rate slightly higher than IBM's XGA 8514A.
High-end, graphics adapters, introduced over the last three years for professional workstations,
offer top resolutions from 1280 x 1024 to 1600 x 1280, horizontal line frequencies up to 90 kHz and
bandwidths up to 200 MHz.
VIS (Viewable Image Size)
The real screen dimensions that users can see measured diagonally. The VIS of a monitor is
always less than the so called screen size of a monitor. For example, the VIS of a 17-inch monitor
is only about 16 inches. It depends on the useful screen size of CRT and the opening of a monitor's
front cabinet.

TCO '99 Information (For TCO Model Only)
Congratulations!
You have just purchased a TCO' 99approved 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
file:///D|/EDFU/crt_19/edoc/english/201B/SAFETY/regs/regulat.htm (1 of 17)7/19/2004 4:11:00 PM

Regulatory Information
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.
Below you will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met by this product. The
complete environmental criteria document may be ordered from:

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.

Regulatory Information
CFCs (freons)
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.
