107G 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
6500K.
For more information on sRGB, please visit: www.srgb.com
* These information are subject to change without notice.

Automatic Power Saving
If you have VESA's DPMS compliance display card or software installed in your PC, the monitor can
automatically reduce its power consumption when not in use. And if an input from a keyboard,
mouse or other input device is detected, the monitor will automatically "wake up". The following table
shows the power consumption and signaling of this automatic power saving features:

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "Designed for Windows" logo signify?
The "Designed for Windows" logo means your Philips monitor fulfills the requirements and
recommendations of the PC9x (97, 98, or 99) System Design Guide and passes stringent WHQL tests.
2. What is USB?
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. Its three main benefits are:
●USB eliminates "Case angst," the fear of removing the computer case to install circuit board
cards - that often require 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 a 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!
3. What is a USB hub?
Think of USB hub as a extension of USB ports. Normally, the PC provides only one or two USB ports. To
connect additional USB devices, you need a USB hub.
4. What is Philips Monitors USB hub solution?
Increasingly, monitors include USB hub functionality. But not all users need or want a USB hub. To give
users freedom of choice, Philips provides an optional USB hub (type number PCUH411). The USB hub
consists of two parts that are normally connected: one is functional, the other aesthetic. The aesthetic
element is a removable cover. With the cover removed, the USB hub can be attached to the base or
pedestal of monitor. The attached USB hub can be rotated to any position around the monitor's base. With
this innovative Philips solution, your USB hub is always within reach for convenient connection and
disconnection of USB peripherals.
