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 LightFrameTM with Netscape?
A: You can use LightFrameTM with Netscape, but its functions are limited to manually highlighting the
entire Netscape client window. Since LightFrameTM 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 LightFrameTM 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 LightFrameTM on my entire screen?
A: Yes you can. And with LightFrameTM 3 this becomes even easier. You just press the LightFrameTM
button on the bezel to activate it.
Q: When I apply LightFrameTM 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 LightFrameTM 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 LightFrameTM 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 LightFrameTM 3 control panel.
Q: How can I tell if my monitor comes with LightFrameTM 3?
A: All Philips LightFrameTM monitors display this logo on their front bezel:
Q: How do I use the LightFrameTM 3 control bar that appears at the top my screen?

illustration below describes the tasks each button performs.
