Your eyes will get fatigued after viewing the monitor for long period of time. Relax your eyes by viewing away from the monitor from time to time. Please watch the monitor in downward direction.

• Note on image retention

The plasma monitor illuminates phosphor to display images. The phosphor has a finite illumination life. After extended periods of illumination, the brightness of the phosphor would be degraded to such extent that still images would image retention that part of the screen as grayed-out images. Tips to prevent such image retention are:

- Do not display images having sharp brightness differences or high-contrast images, such as monochrome characters and graphic patterns, for long.

- Do not leave stationary images appearing for long, but try to refresh them at appropriate intervals of time.

- Turn down the contrast and brightness controls.

English

• How to clean the monitor.

Before cleaning the monitor, turn off the monitor and disconnect the power plug from the mains. When cleaning the monitor, do not spray directly the screen or cabinet with cleaner. Use a clean, dust free, dry and soft cloth. If it is not enough, then use a cloth with non-alcoholic or non-ammonia detergent. Do not rub the surface of the screen with ball-point-pen or screw-driver etc.

• Prevention of an obstacle to Radio receivers

This monitor has been designed pursuant to the FCC class B Rules (see page IV). This is to prevent a problem to Radio receivers.

- Keep the monitor away from Radio.

- Adjust Radio antennas in order for the monitor not to receive interference.

- The antenna cable of Radio should be kept away from the monitor.

- Use a coaxial cable for antenna.

You can check if this monitor influences Radio receivers by turning off all other equipment other than the monitor. If you find a problem receiving Radio when using the monitor, check the instructions mentioned above.

• Precautions for the monitor

- Confirm the connector is fixed tightly when the signal cable is connected. Also confirm the screws on the connector are tightened.

- Plug the power cord of the monitor into a different socket from that for other equipment, such as Radio etc..

- Use a plug with ground terminal and make sure that it connects to the ground.

Features

Introduces newly developed 50" XGA Wide Plasma Panel

The new high-precision XGA 50" wide plasma panel pushes the envelope of previous high-luminance panels, producing brighter,

English

clearer images with higher contrast.

¶ Newly developed full screen filter produces clear,

high-contrast images even in a lighted room.

The new full screen filter suppresses surface reflections to a minimum, producing clear, high-contrast images even in lighted locations. Unnecessary frequency components of RGB signals are also cut, greatly enhancing color reproduction.

¶ Supports wide range of computer signal formats

Direct display of computer signals is supported in resolutions from 640x400 and 640x480 (VGA) to 1024x768 (XGA) and 1280x768; computer signals with resolutions of 1280x1024 (SXGA) and 1600x1200 (UXGA) are supported in compressed display format. Screen aspect ratios include DOT-BY-DOT, 4:3, FULL, and PARTIAL*1 * 1. Operation of screen aspect ratios and screen size differ

depending on the input signal.

¶ Free Installation Configuration

Broader installation possibilities with thinner, lighter, high-endurance design.

While producing a large 50" screen image, the display is only 98mm thick, and weighs in at only 38.9 kg. On the other hand, the efficient heat-radiating design greatly improves environmental operating conditions. The thinner, lighter design, coupled to high-endurance construction greatly broadens the range of possible installation locations and styles.

¶ High reliability for commercial applications

The is provided with features giving it high dependability in commercial applications, including the ability to suppress peak luminance in accordance with the viewing program, and to change the cooling fan’s speed in accordance with changes in operating environment. Such features provide safety and highendurance under conditions of commercial use.

¶ Improved usability

User convenience has been improved by the inclusion of features making the display even more compatible with your computer. Some of these include the one-touch screen adjustment AUTO SETUP function for computer connections, and the POINT ZOOM function to enlarge local portions of the screen image to display important detailed program data.

¶ Power-Saving Design

This display achieves the lowest power consumption in the industry for screens in the 50" XGA class (380 W). Further, use of the power-control function provides a 20% reduction in power consumption compared to normal operating conditions (MODE 1, with color-bar signal input).

¶ Optional line (sold separately)
