107P Product Information

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

Q:Some times my mouse changes to a light bulb with a plus sign and sometimes with a minus sign. What is the difference?

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

If there is a minus sign it means that you are moving over a window where LightFrame™ is already active and clicking this window will switch the enhancement off. A plus sign appears when moving over a window which is not enhanced and clicking that one will enable LightFrame™ on that window.

Q:What is wrong when my mouse changes into a light bulb with a red cross?

A:Nothing. It just means that your mouse moves outside the application where you already have one or

more windows enhanced. You can only select windows with in the same application. The cross indicates that you move into an area where you cannot make a selection.

Q:Can I use LightFrame™ with Netscape?

A:You can use LightFrame™ with Netscape, but its functions are limited to manually highlighting the entire Netscape client window. Since LightFrame™ is specifically designed for bright, high contrast photo and video display, highlighting an entire Web page -- including text -- is not recommended.

For best results, we recommend you use LightFrame™ with Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 or higher. You can downloaded Internet Explorer free of charge from the Microsoft website (www.microsoft.com). A copy of Internet Explorer 5.5 is also included on the CD-ROM shipped with your monitor.

Q:Can I activate LightFrame™ on my entire screen?

A:Yes you can. And with LightFrame™ 3 this becomes even easier. There are three ways to do this: 1) click the full screen button in the LightFrame control bar with your mouse. 2) Press the "windows" hotkey on your keyboard and press "L". 3) Via the OSD menu, scroll to Extra controls, press "OK", then LightFrame On.

Q:When I apply LightFrame™ to a text document I get blurry characters, what is wrong?

A:Nothing is wrong. The effect which you see is due to the sharpness enhancement that LightFrame™ is

doing on your monitor. This sharpness improves a photo or video significantly however on black text on a light background the effect is less favorable. Please keep in mind that LightFrame™ is developed to enhance your photos and videos and not really for text or synthetic pictures.

You can decrease this effect by lowering the sharpness setting in the LightFrame™ 3 control panel.

Q: How can I tell if my monitor comes with LightFrame™ 3?

A:All Philips LightFrame™ 3 monitors display this logo on their front bezel:
