107X Product Information

Q:Can I use LightFrame™ 3 software on my LightFrame™ 1 / 2 monitor.

A:No for a LightFrame™ 1 or 2 monitor you need to use LightFrame™ 1 or 2 software. It is however possible

to use the LightFrame™ 2 software on a LightFrame™ 1 monitor.

Q:What is the difference between LightFrame™ 1, LightFrame™ 2 and LightFrame™ 3?

A:LightFrame™ 1 was the very first generation of the LightFrame™ 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™ 2 offers the automatic detection in Internet Explorer on top of the LightFrame™ 1 functions. With this feature LightFrame™ will automatically scan a web page in Internet Explorer, find the largest picture and enhance it.

LightFrame™ 3 offers everything that LightFrame™ 2 has but now with the possibility to enhance multiple pictures at the same time. So in a web page LightFrame™ will find all the pictures and enhance them simultaneously or in a photo viewing application you can enhance multiple photos at once. Furthermore LightFrame™ 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™ enhances your total monitor.

Q:Can I upgrade my current Philips monitor to LightFrame™ 3?

A:No. For LightFrame™ 3 Philips developed special hardware which is build into the monitor. Therefore upgrading from LightFrame™ 1 or 2 to 3 is not possible. It is however possible to upgrade your LightFrame™ 1 monitor to LightFrame™ 2 by installing the LightFrame™ 2 software.

Q:Can I install LightFrame™ 3 over an older version?

A:When you install LightFrame™ 3 the setup wizard will scan your system to check if you have an older version installed. If so, the setup wizard will remove that version before continuing with the installation of the new version. Please be aware that for LightFrame™ 3 you also need a monitor which is capable of running the LightFrame™ 3 feature.

Q:How can I tell which version LightFrame™ my monitor can support?

A:To check which version of LightFrame™ is supported by your monitor check the LightFrame logo which

you will find on the top, right-hand corner of the monitor. If this logo has a small 3 in it, your monitor is ready for LightFrame™ 3. Otherwise you should use the LightFrame™ 1 or 2 software.

Q: How many windows can I enhance at the same time?

A:In LightFrame™ 3 it is possible to enhance up to 8 windows at the same time. It is however important to

understand that when other windows, toolbars or menus overlap the enhanced windows, the maximum number of enhanced windows can be less.

Q:How many pictures can LightFrame™ enhance in Internet Explorer?

A:In Internet Explorer LightFrame™ 3 can enhance up to 16 pictures at the same time. LightFrame™ 3 filters

the pictures it finds based on the minimum size of the picture therefore it may happen that some pictures are
