FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: What is the difference between LightFrame TM 1, LightFrame TM 2 and LightFrame TM 3?
A: LightFrame TM 1 was the very first generation of the LightFrame TM feature introduced by Philips.
In that version the user needs to manually turn on/off the feature and select the window or area to
apply it to.
LightFrame TM 2 offers the automatic detection in Internet Explorer on top of the LightFrame TM 1
functions. With this feature LightFrame TM will automatically scan a web page in Internet Explorer,
find the largest picture and enhance it.
LightFrame
TM 3 offers everything that LightFrame TM 2 has but now with the possibility to enhance
multiple pictures at the same time. So in a web page LightFrame TM will find all the pictures and
enhance them simultaneously or in a photo viewing application you can enhance multiple photos at
once. Furthermore LightFrame
TM 3 comes with an easy to activate full screen function. This is
especially handy for games and movies. Just one click on the full screen button and LightFrame TM
enhances your total monitor.
Q: Can I upgrade my current Philips monitor to LightFrame TM 3?
A: No. For LightFrame TM 3 Philips developed special hardware which is build into the monitor.
Therefore upgrading from LightFrame TM 1 or 2 to 3 is not possible. It is however possible to
upgrade your LightFrame TM 1 monitor to LightFrame TM 2 by installing the LightFrame TM 2 software.
Q: Can I install LightFrame TM 3 over an older version?
A: When you install LightFrame TM 3 the setup wizard will scan your system to check if you have an

TM 3 you also need a monitor
which is capable of running the LightFrame TM 3 feature.
Q: How many windows can I enhance at the same time?
A: In LightFrame TM 3 it is possible to enhance up to 7 windows at the same time. It is however

windows, the maximum number of enhanced windows can be less.
Q: How many pictures can LightFrame TM enhance in Internet Explorer?
A: In Internet Explorer LightFrame TM 3 can enhance up to 14 pictures at the same time.

A: Yes. With LightFrame TM 3 you have the possibility to select several windows with pictures and
videos and enhance them at the same time.

minus sign. What is the difference?
A: The mouse pointer in the shape of a light bulb indicates that LightFrame TM is ready to accept a
selection from you for which window should be enhanced.
