The following features are provided by the color Plasma Display Monitor.

Large-screen, high-definition plasma display panel

The 37-inch color plasma display panel, with a resolution of 1024 (H) x 768(V) pixels,
creates a high-definition, large-screen (aspect ratio : 4:3) and low-profile flat display.
Free from electromagnetic interferences from geomagnetic sources and ambient power
lines, the panel produces high-quality display images free from color misconvergence and
display distortion.

Multimedia input support

The monitor comes complete with a mini-D-sub terminal and a BNC terminal for RGB
input and with a composite/S terminal and a component terminal for video input, and
even with stereo audio input terminals. It allows hooking up with a number of devices,
from PCs to video gear.

Multiscan converter and progressive LSI

The multiscan converter provides a broad multiscan range of signals (*1), from video
signals (15 kHz) to PC analog video signals. Video input is subjected to progressive
processing by a dedicated LSI to offer better video quality.
(*1) Video performance of input signals in excess of 1024 x 768 (fields) is not

guaranteed, as they appear in a simplified display mode.

Easy-to-use remote controller and EasyMenu

The remote controller included eases the work of setting display controls. Further, the
on-screen display system, EasyMenu, displays the status of signal reception and display
control settings in an easy-to-view fashion.

Power saving system

International energy star and a power saving system are provided. The power-saving
system operates automatically to reduce power consumption even when there is no video
input signal.

OTHER FEATURES

Approximately 1 sec. after adjustment is completed, the adjustments will be recorded as shown
in the table below.

The previously recorded items will be lost.
The signal mode can be identified by the horizontal/vertical sync frequency and the sync signal
polarity. Different signals with which all the elements are the same or similar will be handled as the
same signal.
RGB1 and RGB2 inputs have common elements that can be recorded for each signal mode. Because
of this, when the contents are recorded with RGB1 (or RGB2), there may be loss of adjustment
during RGB2 (or RGB1) reception in the same signal mode.

■ The type of video board or connecting cable used may not allow for correct displays

Set H.POSITION, V.POSITION, CLOCK and PHASE.

■ When a signal has been input with a vertical frequency of greater than 60Hz, it may not be possible to obtain

smooth display of animated images in some cases.

■ The monitor differentiates the signal modes according to the horizontal and vertical frequencies and the

horizontal and vertical sync signal polarities. Note that different signals having all these elements alike may
be handled as the same signal.

■ Use of this monitor with the input signal timings specified below is recommended. A predefined setting may

not be reproduced correctly with an extremely long front porch or back porch or with an extremely short data
display time.
