SmartPower

with AutoSense:
All Philips 2009 models meet Energy Star 3.0 requirements.
SmartPower
3
goes further, allowing the backlight intensity to be varied
to reduce the power consumption, saving substantially on energy
costs. New is AutoSense, a built-in optimization engine that uses a
light sensor to always deliver the best possible picture at the lowest
possible energy consumption based on actual room conditions. In
addition, Philips' Energy Savings Programmability allows the television
to turn itself off when not in use to save even more energy when
guests or maids leave TVs on for long periods while the room is vacant.
SmartGuide:
Hotel guests have difculty nding a program they want to watch since
they have no idea which channel is which in an unfamiliar city. Even a
traditional electronic program guide (EPG) is little help as the guest
has to scroll through multiple channel pages to nd the program they
want to watch. Traditional EPGs are no better for hotels, since fees
are charged on a per room basis. Philips is proud to introduce a better
content location tool - SmartGuide. Simply search by type of content,
for example "Sports" and instantly see all the Sports channels available.
Your guest is seconds away from the programs they want to watch!
SmartCP autosensing side inputs:
Allowing your guests to access their content sources has never been
easier. The guest simply plugs their device into our easily accessible
side connectivity panel and the TV will automatically detect and switch
to the correct input. Guests can even plug their USB memory sticks
right into the set and play back music or photos ***.
SmartWindow for simultaneous TV viewing and PC use:
SmartWindow allows your guests the added convenience of working
on their laptop PCs on one half of the screen while enjoying the TV
content of their choice on the other half. The perfect balance of work
and leisure.
Full HD LCD display, 1920x1080p (37" and larger):
Our larger LCD TVs offer Full HD resolution of 1080 progressive lines,
each with 1920 pixels for a total of just over 2 million pixels (compare
this to the 1 million pixels delivered by 1366 x 768p panels). If you
have ever blown up a photo taken on a lower resolution camera you
know that the larger the image needs to be, the more pixels you need
to make the image look acceptable. Similarly, larger televisions benet
from having more pixels, especially when viewed from a close distance,
like in a hotel room, where having less pixels results in less pixel
density on the display and noticeable stair stepping and screen door
effects. (32" model is 1366 x 768).
SmartStand

:
Philips unique SmartStand

is a complete commercial solution, offering
a full 180 degree swivel that can be limited in either or both directions
to 30, 60 or 90 degrees (up to 42"). The stand includes a fully securable
mounting plate that can be afxed either using security screws or non-
drill adhesive. All security hardware for drill and non-drill mounting is
included on select models****.
SmartInstall:
Philips debuts an easy to use and complete installation solution.
Now it’s easier than ever to guarantee the best possible installation
experience for your property and the best possible guest experience.
SmartInstall software allows all features to be set and all channels to
be mapped in a fraction of the time it takes to do so on the television
using a remote. The resultant le is then easily clonable to all TVs on
the property via USB or RF communication (RF cloning requires the
addition of a Philips PSG).
SmartUpdate**:
Philips televisions are the rst to automatically keep themselves
updated. Simply add a Philips Smart Gateway and all Philips commercial
televisions on the property will check for updated channel maps and/
or software and update in the background when new les are found,
minimally disturbing the guest experience.
SmartSecure**:
An industry rst from Philips, SmartSecure makes all of your
televisions useless if they are removed from your property. If theft is
a problem, you will want to publicize that your TVs have SmartSecure
and only function onsite.
Integrated b-LAN™ communication with full PPV support:
Philips televisions feature the LodgeNet Interactive b-LAN™
communication protocol built-in. This allows for simple and reliable
cloning and updating of our products. By integrating b-LAN™, these
sets also work right out of the box in all LodgeNet systems, without
any need for terminals or cards.
Two-year advanced exchange warranty*:
Philips offers unmatched commitment to keeping your guest rooms
in working order. We have such condence in the reliability of our
televisions that we offer a two-year advanced exchange warranty with
same day ship (same day ship applies to calls received M-F prior to
2pm ET.) In the unlikely event that something does go wrong, we ship a
replacement directly to you.
Philips continues to innovate in ways that make our
competitors green with envy. Our dedicated hospitality team
only works on products for hotels, and we focus on delivering
benets to you, to your guest, and to the environment.
We pioneered energy savings in commercial televisions
through the invention of SmartPower and Energy Savings
Programmability three years ago. Now we proudly
introduce SmartPower
3
with Autosense, a suite of power
saving technologies that deliver even more energy savings,
automatically optimized for existing room conditions, and
meet Energy Star 3.0 requirements. But saving energy is only the beginning, as we go well beyond the
industry standard for sustainability. Where others may use brominated ame retardants, we never do.
Where others may use packaging that is not eco-friendly, Philips commercial televisions are designed
and produced to minimize overall environmental impact, through lower power consumption, removal
of hazardous substances, lower weight, more efcient packaging and better recyclability.
When it comes to your business, you don’t need any
distractions. You look for partners who take the worry out
of working with them and allow you to focus on what you
do best, pleasing your guest. Philips understands, and Philips
Hospitality provides commercial products, backed by a
commercial organization, and a unique advanced exchange
warranty of up to three years (on select products). We also
have around the clock (24/7) customer support, and local
service to better support your property. We offer a complete
suite of hospitality proven features in our SmartHotel package
including volume and menu access limiting, cloning, software
downloads, and future proof encryption and communication technologies that meet hotel needs
today and in the future. The addition of the Philips Smart Gateway allows you to clone or update
televisions without ever visiting the room, making owning and maintaining your Philips television as
easy as possible. It also allows us to offer the industry’s rst security-enhanced televisions, featuring
SmartSecure, which can deter theft by making your Philips commercial televisions functional only on
your property.
Guest satisfaction is your business, and Philips makes it ours
as well, offering innovative features that deliver the best
possible guest experience. Guests want better sound in their
hotel rooms - they express a strong preference for a more
home theater like experience. Philips Hotel Cinema soundbar
systems are perfect additions to your guest offering. Guests
increasingly bring their own content and look for hotels to
provide easy and convenient ways to view or listen to that
content. Philips offers guest-friendly products such as our built-in
SmartCP autosensing side inputs or our autosensing in-wall or
on-desk connectivity panels. These products allow your guests
to enjoy content from their own devices, such as MP3 players or personal game systems, on the
television, including music and photos from a USB memory stick. SmartWindow, even allows guests
to conveniently use their PCs on one half of the screen while watching TV on the other half.
