Be sure to read this manual before servicing. To ensure safety from fire, electric shock, injury, harmful
radiation and materials, various measures are provided in this Plasma Monitor.
Be sure to read cautionary items described in the manual before servicing.
These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, do not perform any servicing other than that described in the operating instructions unless you are
qualified to do so.
Service Warning
1. Since the Panel Module and the front Filter are made of glass, handling the broken Module and Filter
carefully and with caution in order not to receive injury.
2. Replacement work should be started after the Panel Module and the AC/DC Power supply have
become sufficiently cool.
3. Special care should be taken when working near the display area in order not to damage its surface.
4. The Panel Module should not be touched with bare hands in order to protect its surface from
blemishes and damage.
5. It is recommended that you use clean soft gloves during the replacement work in order to protect not
only the display area of the Panel Module but also yourself.

CAUTION FOR SAFETY
Please read this page before repair the monitor.
The following safety precautions are designed to help you stay safe and prevent accidents during the repair
work.
zPlease take note of these cautionary flags.
Warning
Caution
zAlso note these cautionary icons
This means "CAUTION"
This means "POTENTIAL ELECTRIC SHOCK"
This means "Potential to sustain injury or even death."
This means "Potential to sustain breakage or irreparable damage."
This means "MUST"
This means "DO NOT"
WARNING
Follow instructions. Must use same types of wires and components.
The cabinet, chassis, and labels are parts
that require attention. You must follow the
caution notes and safety instructions
presented throughout this User Manual to
prevent damage to them or injury to
yourself.
Prevent electric shock.
Exercise caution while working on the
device as the Monitor contains high
voltage parts and power supply.It is
possible to sustain severe injury or death
if you accidentally touch the wrong
parts.You must disconnect the power
supply while servicing, reassembling, or
change parts. If you touch a live
connection it is possible to sustain severe
injury or death.
Use recommended components.
Use only the recommended components
or componentst that structurally identical
to the originals. This is to ensure safety
and reliability. Pay special attention to
parts in the parts list and circuit diagrams
marked with
non-recommended components, then
electric shock or fire may result.
. If you use
Perform safety check when done.
Do not try to check the HDCP code and
combination circuit.
The Monitor uses special tubes and tapes
made from insulated materials. Moreover,
some materials are kept from making
contact with the PWB for the sake of
safety.Internal leads are kept from hot
parts or high voltage parts by means of
clamps or other measures. As such, you
must restored these parts to their original
conditions in order to prevent electric
shock or fire.
Every part (such as removed screws,
components, and wiring) must be
restored to their prior conditions after
servicing.Be sure to check everything
that was repaired for damage or
mistakes. Also measure the insulated
impedance with a meg-ohm meter to
confirm that the impedance value is more
than 4M ohm.If the impedance value is
less than 4M ohm, then electric shock or
fire may result.
Never remove the shield case protecting
the HDCP code and combination circuit.

PRECAUTIONS
zCleaning the monitor's plasma screen panel
Before cleaning the monitor, turn it off and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet. To prevent
scratching or damaging of the plasma screen face, do not knock or rub the surface with sharp or hard objects.
Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened with warm water and dry with a second soft cloth. If it is not
enough, then use a cloth with mild detergent. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.
zCleaning the monitor's cabinet
Use a soft cloth to clean the monitor's cabinet and control panel. When excessively soiled, dilute a neutral
detergent in water, wet and wring out the soft cloth in it, gently clean the cabinet, and then wipe it down with a
dry soft cloth.
Never use acid/alkaline detergents, alcoholic detergents, abrasive cleaners, powder soaps, OA cleaners, car
wax, glass cleaners, and so on. They will cause discoloration, scratches or cracks.
1. Features
zHigh definition Plasma display panel
The 42-inch color plasma display panel, with a resolution of 1024 (H) x 1024(V) pixels, creates a widescreen
picture. This panel features a thin form factor and can be hung on a wall with an optional wall mounting kit.
zHigh Performance Digital Processor
This panel displays a wide range of personal computer signals from 640 x 400 VESA, 640 x 480 VGA to 1024
x 768, 1280 x 1024 XGA.(RGB Analog input).
zEasy-to-use remote control and on-screen display system
The included remote control operates all Monitor functions. Futhermore, the on-screen display system shows
the status of the control settings in an easy-to-view fashion.
zPower saving system
When connected to a VESA DPMS-compliant PC, the monitor cuts its power consumption while idle.

4. Service points
zLead-free solder
This product uses lead-free solder (unleaded) to help protect the environment. Please read these instructions
before attempting any soldering work.
Caution: Always wear safety glasses to prevent fumes or molten solder from getting into
the eyes. Lead-free solder can splatter at high temperatures (600℃).
Lead-free solder indicator
Printed circuit boards using lead-free solder are engraved with an "F."
Properties of lead-free solder
The melting point of lead-free solder is 40-50℃ higher than leaded solder.
Servicing solder
Solder with an alloy composition of Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu or Sn-0.7Cu is recommended. Although servicing with
leaded solder is possible, there are a few precautions that have to be taken. (Not taking these precautions
may cause the solder to not harden properly, and lead to consequent malfunctions.)
Precautions when using leaded solder
z
Remove all lead-free solder from soldered joints when replacing components.
z
If leaded solder should be added to existing lead free joints, mix in the leaded solder thoroughly after the
lead-free solder has been completely melted (do not apply the soldering iron without solder).
Servicing soldering iron
A soldering iron with a temperature setting capability (temperature control function) is recommended.
The melting point of lead-free solder is higher than leaded solder. Use a soldering iron that maintains a high
stable temperature (large heat capacity), and that allows temperature adjustment according to the part being
serviced, to avoid poor servicing performance.

settings. The factory mode has several different appearances, depending on the input signal.
Preliminary
To access the Factory Mode, the
Plasma Monitor must be running.
zColor temperature adjustments
Follow the procedures below to make the color temperature adjustments.
Factory setting:
Cool: x=0.268 +/- 0.01, y=0.283 +/- 0.01
Warm: x=0.314 +/- 0.01, y=0.327 +/- 0.01
Netural: x=0.285 +/- 0.01, y=0.293 +/- 0.01
Black & White: x=0.335 +/- 0.01, y=0.343 +/- 0.01
Note: That a colorimetry meter (such as a Minolta CA-200) is required to measure the actual screen color
temperature.
