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 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.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

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.

Compatibility with other Peripherals

Q: Can I connect my LCD monitor to any PC, workstation or Mac?

A: Yes. All Philips LCD monitors are fully compatible with standard PCs, Macs and

workstations. You may need a cable adapter to connect the monitor to your Mac

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 and

XP.

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

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

or printer.

Q: What can l do if my USB peripherals don't work with the USB hub of my monitor?

A: If you experience the problem, just detach and re-attach the USB hub cable

between PC and your monitor, then refresh your PC device manager (Start > Setting

> Control panel > System > Hardware > Device manager > Refresh) or reboot your

PC and the problem can be solved by above procedures.

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: 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
