performance in windows used for other applications.
17. How does LightFrame ™ work?
LightFrame ™ consists of a software application and an Integrated Circuit (IC) embedded in the
monitor. Together, they boost brightness and sharpness in a user defined window or screen
area. Unique LightFrame
TM technology dramatically improves photo and video display quality.
18. Why is LightFrame ™ important to me?
With LightFrame ™ , selected Philips monitors deliver TV quality video and photo display while
maintaining monitor performance for text-based applications. The result is that movies and
other video are brighter and livelier; photos are more vibrant and lifelike.
19. Will anyone else have this?
LightFrame ™ was invented, developed and patented by Philips. It is a unique feature that you
will find exclusively in Philips monitors.
20. Will LightFrame ™ shorten the life of a monitor?
No. Extensive testing has confirmed LightFrame ™ does not adversely affect monitor life.
Today's state-of-the-art Philips monitors employ improved phosphors and are designed for high
light output. LightFrame
™ normally highlights photos and videos. Though the peak brightness
of the highlighted area is strongly increased, the average brightness - a determining factor for
cathode deterioration - is not normally increased. In any case, a special Automatic Beam
Limiter (ABL) circuit keeps a monitor 's maximum average brightness within acceptable levels.
21. I get a message warning that my monitor 'may not support LightFrame ™ '. I am
certain my monitor does. What is wrong?
