sRGB

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. Move the down
button to go to Color and press OK again. Use the right button to go to sRGB. Then move the down
button and press OK again to exit the OSD.

After this, please do not 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.

T

TFT(thin film transistor)

Usually made from amorphous silicon (a-Si) and used as a switch to a charge storage device
located below each sub-pixel on an active matrix LCD.

U

USB or Universal Serial Bus

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.

USB eliminates "case anxiety" -- the fear of removing the computer case to install add-on
peripherals. USB also eliminates adjustment of complicated IRQ settings when installing
new peripherals.

USB does away with "port gridlock." Without USB, PCs are normally limited to one printer,
