Safety precautions and maintenance
WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures other than those
specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock, electrical
hazards, and/or mechanical hazards.
Read and follow these instructions when connecting and using your computer monitor:
Disconnect the monitor from the power supply if the monitor is not to be used for an extended period
of time.
●
Do not attempt to remove the back cover, as you will be exposed to a shock hazard. The back cover
should only be removed by qualified service personnel.
●
Do not place objects on top of the monitor cabinet, objects could fall into vents or cover them and
prevent proper cooling of the monitor's electronic devices.
●
To avoid the risk of shock or permanent damage to the set, do not expose the monitor to rain or
excessive moisture.
●
Do not use alcohol or ammonia-based liquid to clean the monitor. If necessary, clean with a slightly
damp cloth. Disconnect the monitor from the power supply before cleaning.
●
When positioning the monitor, make sure the power plug and outlet are easily accessible.●
Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when operating instructions of this
manual are followed.

Autoscan
A microprocessor-based feature of Philips Brilliance monitors is able to detect automatically horizontal and
vertical frequencies of input signals with those of the installed video card. An autoscan monitor can thus
operate with a wide range of video cards. MultiSync, a registered trademark of NEC, provides a similar
function.

Balanced pincushion
See Geometric distortion
BNC connection
A special construction of connector used in some monitors with higher horizontal scanning frequency. The
BNC connection can provide the optimum shielding and matching characteristic impedance of video signal
path to ensure the best video performance.

file:///C|/rita wu/gs3noVE/english/105E/glossary/glossary.htm (1 of 18) [11/3/2000 11:56:51 AM]

C
CE Mark
CE mark is displayed on products per EMC and LV ( low Voltage Device ) directives in compliance with
European Community safety, EMI and EMS requirements and is compulsory on products for sale in the
European Community.
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 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.
Glossary
file:///C|/rita wu/gs3noVE/english/105E/glossary/glossary.htm (2 of 18) [11/3/2000 11:56:51 AM]

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.
CRT
Cathode-ray tube - the general term for all tubes in which one or more electron beams emitted by a cathode
are periodically scanned across a phosphor screen by means of deflection circuitry. A special form of the
cathode-ray tube is the TV and monitor picture tube.
CustoMax
Philips proprietary monitor control software that allows users to control parameters (e.g., Size, Color,
Geometry) using software running in Windows. CustoMax is compatible with existing VGA cards. See
CrystalClear FAQ and USB Bay FAQ.

D
DDC (Display Data Channel)
Glossary
file:///C|/rita wu/gs3noVE/english/105E/glossary/glossary.htm (3 of 18) [11/3/2000 11:56:51 AM]

DDC is a communication channel for displays and computers. The DDC feature allows the monitor controller
to be automatically configured to make optimal use of the display without manual user interaction. DDC is
implemented as part of the new Plug & Play approach introduced into the PC market to increase user
friendliness.
The three levels developed for Plug & play are: (1) DDC1, monitor send data to the PC; (2) DDC2B, PC can
request information from monitor; and (3) DDC2Bi which is a two-way communication - monitor can be
addressed and PC or graphics board can give commands to monitor.
DDC 1/2B
See DDC.
DDC 2Bi
See DDC.
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
file:///C|/rita wu/gs3noVE/english/105E/glossary/glossary.htm (4 of 18) [11/3/2000 11:56:51 AM]

Dot rate
Frequency in MHz of the dot clock. It is a measure of the speed with which data is transferred between the
video card and subsequent processing circuitry.
Also known as video dot rate.

E
Electromagnetic radiation standards
International standards set to limit electromagnetic emissions from monitors. There are currently 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
Glossary
file:///C|/rita wu/gs3noVE/english/105E/glossary/glossary.htm (5 of 18) [11/3/2000 11:56:51 AM]

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.
RETURN TO TOP OF THE PAGE
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 problem can, however, be eliminated by increasing
the refresh rate (number of frames/second) of the monitor to a value above around 70 Hz. Sensitivity to
flicker appears to diminish with increasing age.

H
Hertz
The unit of frequency named after the physicist Heinrich Hertz (1857-1894). 1 hertz (Hz) is equal to 1
cycle/second.
