A light filter which only allows light waves of a certain rotation through. Polarized material with perpendicular filtering is
used in LCDs to enclose the liquid crystal. The liquid crystal is then used as the medium which twists the light waves 90°
in order to allow the light to pass through or not.
R
Refresh rate
The number of times per second the screen is refreshed or redrawn. This number is usually stated in Hz (Hertz) or cycles
per second. A rate of 60 Hz is equal to 60 tomes per second.
S
sRGB
sRGB is a standard for ensuring correct exchange of colors between different devices (e.g. digital cameras, monitors,
printers, scanners, etc.)
Using a standard unified color space, sRGB will help represent pictures taken by an sRGB compatible device correctly on
your sRGB enabled Philips monitors. In that way, the colors are calibrated and you can rely on the correctness of the
colors shown on your screen.
Important with the use of sRGB is that the brightness and contrast of your monitor is fixed to a predefined setting as well
as the color gamut. Therefore it is important to select the sRGB setting in the monitor's OSD.
To do so, open the OSD by pressing the OK button on the front of your monitor. Move the down button to go to Color and
press OK again. Use the right button to go to sRGB. Then move the down button and press OK again to exit the OSD.
After this, please do not change the brightness or contrast setting of your monitor. If you change either of these, the
monitor will exit the sRGB mode and go to a color temperature setting of 6500K.
