Flat Panel Adjust (FP Adjust)

Fpadjust program
The Flat Panel Adjust (FPadjust) software helps you to find the best setting for your Philips LCD monitor. It allows you to adjust the image performance of LCD monitor, such as RESOLUTION, AUTO ADJUSTMENT, POSITION, CONTRAST, VIDEO CLOCK and VIDEO PHASE. Note: Video clock and phase functions are only available for analog video signals.

Install and Run FPadjust
In "MS Windows 95/98" environment : For example 1. Insert CD-DFU(3138 117 01951) to your CD-ROM driver. 2. Run "E:\PC\FPADJUST\SETUP.EXE" as Fig. 1. (Replace E by the letter of your CD-ROM driver)

E:\PC\FPADJUST\SETUP.EXE

Fig. 1 3. Then follow the instructions to install the FPadjust program. When finish, double click FPadjust icon " ", then the description (can be moved by mouse) and background pattern come on the screen for image adjustment.
FPadjust.lnk

FPadjust program is working as a pattern generator to provide the pattern display on the screen for the adjustment of CONTRAST, CLOCK, PHASE ...etc. Please follow the steps below to adjust your PHILIPS Flat Panel Monitor for best display quality.

Definition of Pixel Defects
0. General
This section explains the different types of pixel defects and defines acceptable defect levels of each type. In order to qualify for repair or replacement under warranty, the number of pixel defects on a TFT LCD panel must exceed these acceptable levels. 3. Pixel Defect Tolerances

19 150P LCD Go to cover page

In order to qualify for repair or replacement due to pixel defects during the warranty period, a TFT LCD panel in a PHILIPS flat panel monitor must have pixel or subpixel defects exceeding the tolerances listed in the following tables.

1. Definition of Pixels and Subpixels
A pixel, or picture element , is composed of three subpixels in the primary colors of red, green and blue. Many pixels together from an image. When all subpixels of a pixel are lit, the three colored subpixels together appear as a single white pixel. When all are dark, the three colored subpixels together appear as a single black pixel. Other combinations of lit and dark subpixels appear as single pixels of other colors.

Electrical instructions
0. General When carry-out the electrical settings in many cases a video signal must be applied to the monitor. A computer with : - ATI VGA 1024 V6-1.04/PH BETA4 interface card - PGA 1024 (4822 212 30916), Mach 8. - PGA 1280 (4822 212 30917), Mach 32. - ATI GPT-1600 (4822 397 10065), Mach 64 (up to 107kHz) are used as the video signal source. The signal patterns are selected from the "service test software" package, see user guide 4822 727 19896 (ATI1024), or 4822 727 20273 (PGA 1280), or 4822 727 21046 (GPT-1600). 0.1 With normal VGA card: If not using the ATI card during repair or alignment, The service engineer also can use this service test software adapting with normal standard VGA adaptor and using standard VGA mode 640 x 480, 31.5 kHz/60 Hz (only) as signal source. 0.2 AC/DC Measurement: The measurements for AC waveform and DC figure is based on 640 x 480 31.5 kHz/60 Hz resolution mode with test pattern "gray scale". 1.General points 1.1 During the test and measuring, supply a distortion free AC mains voltage to the apparatus via an isolated transformer with low internal resistance. 1.2 All measurements mentioned hereafter are carried out at a normal mains voltage (90 - 132 VAC for USA version, 195 -264 VAC for EUROPEAN version, or 90 - 264 VAC for the model with full range power supply, unless otherwise stated.) 1.3 All voltages are to be measurement or applied with respect to ground, unless otherwise stated. Note: don't use heat-sink as ground. 1.4 The test has to be done on a complete set including LCD panel in a room with temperature of 25 +/- 5 degree C. 1.5 All values mentioned in these test instruction are only applicable of a well aligned apparatus, with correct signal. 1.6 The letters symbols (B) and (S) placed behind the test instruction denotes (B): carried out 100% inspection at assembly line (S): carried out test by sampling 1.7 The white balance (color temperature), has to be tested in subdued lighted room. 1.8 Repetitive power on/off cycle are allowed except it should be avoided within 6 sec. 2.

DDC Instructions
Re-programming Digital DDC IC Step 1: Connecting all cables and alignment box as shown on Fig. 4 Step 2: Follow the steps on DDC re-programing instructions to starting re-programming.

4. Configuration and procedure
There are three chips contained serial number on the circuit board, Analog DDC IC (7202), Digital DDC IC (7201) and main EEPROM (7362) which storage all factory settings. Following descirptions are the connection and procedure for Analog DDC IC and Digital DDC IC, the main EEPROM can be re-programmed along with Analog IC by enable factory memory data write function on the DDC program (EDID30.EXE). Initialize alignment box

In order to avoid that monitor entering power saving mode due to sync will cut off by alignment box, it is necessary to initialize alignment box before running programming software (EDID30.EXE). Following steps show you the procedures and connection. Step 1: Supply 8~12V DC power source to the Alignment box by plugging a DC power cord or using batteries. Step 2: Connecting printer cable and video cable of monitor as Fig. A Step 3: Run the EDID30.EXE program until the main menu appears. This is for initialize alignment box.

At this time, please make sure all cables are connected correctly and fixedly, and the procedure has been performed properly.

Note:

During the loading, EDID30 will verify the EDID data which just loaded from monitor before proceed any further function, once the data structure of EDID can not be recognized, the following error message will appear on the screen (Fig. 8). Please confirm following steps to avoid this message. 1. The data structure of EDID was incorrect. 2. DDC IC that you are trying to load data is empty. 3. Wrong communication channel has set at configuration setup windows. 4. Cables loosed or poor contact of connection.

Loading DDC data from monitor 1. Click icon on the tools bar to bring up the Configuration Setup windows as Fig.7 2. Select the DDC2B as the communication channel. 3. Enable Factory memory data write function and fill in page address F0 to the block. 4.. Click button to confirm your selection. Note: The Factory memory data write function will allow EDID30 to rewrite serial numbers both Analog DDC IC and main EEPROM to make sure both S/N are exactly the same. You may confirm the function by checking the S/N at Product information of the OSD menu after restarting the monitor. Modify DDC data (Serial No.) 1. 2. 3. 4. Click icon on the toosl bar. Click till the Step 7 of 9 window appears. Type the new Serial No. (for example, 7492DBD8TGA9). Click till the last step window appears, then click exit the Step window.

Save DDC data as a file Sometimes, you maybe need to save DDC data as a text file for using on other DDC chip. To save DDC data, follow the steps below: 1. 2. Click icon on the tools bar and type a file name you like. The file format is ddc type which can be open by Microsoft WordPad. Click button.

Load DDC data from file
1. 2. 3. Click from the tools bar. Select the file you want to open. Click . Button.

4.

Now you can re-programming DDC data which you just loaded from a file, please be confirmed that model and serial number are correct and match with the monitor you are trying to re-write.
