Introduction
The Planar® LookThru™ Transparent OLED Display showcases dynamic or interactive
information on a transparent surface glass. This display allows users to view what is
shown on a glass video screen while still being able to see through it. Designers can
overlay text, digital images, and video content onto physical objects or scenes that sit
behind the glass.
Truly See-Through Installations
The first-of-its-kind Planar LookThru is a self-emitting display that utilizes Organic Light
Emitting Diode (OLED) to eliminate the need for a backlight or enclosure, making it
possible to create truly see-through installations. The design offers virtually frameless
glass with up to 45 percent light transmissivity, creating clear, unobstructed views of
objects, scenes, or other digital screens behind the transparent display.
Flexible Design Options
Introduction
The Planar LookThru measures 55-inch in diagonal. It can be used in both portrait and
landscape modes, and can be table mounted, ceiling mounted, or built into custom
fixtures. It can also be tiled to create large, eye-catching video wall arrays.
Brilliant Picture Quality in a Large Viewing Size
The Planar Lookthru offers vibrant colors greater than 100 percent National Television
System Committee (NTSC) performance as well as wide viewing angles with no off-axis
contrast or brightness limitations. The display provides Full HD resolution that allows for
beautiful graphics and full-motion video.
High Durability
The Planar LookThru features the proprietary
Optics™ (ERO™) technology, which uses a protective optically-clear Corning® Gorilla®
Glass bonded to the front surface of the display. This high-durability surface can
withstand the rigors of high-traffic environments and interactive touch.
Source Compatibility
The Planar LookThru comes with standard digital inputs including HDMI and DisplayPort,
is fully controllable using RS-232, LAN, Crestron and other control systems, and is
compatible with sources ranging from PCs and players to consumer video devices that
rely on High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) compliance. The display is
compatible with processing solutions for tiling applications or advanced source
management.

4. Display Architecture
The two members of the Planar LookThru LO552 product family are described in this
section:
• LO552 Standard Model
• LO552-S Straight Mount Model
These two Planar LookThru models are
made up of three subcomponents:
• Display Glass
• Display Chassis
• Electronic box
The Standard Model of the Planar
LookThru LO552, pictured on the right, is
intended for use on a tabletop or attached
to a suitable surface, either upright as
shown, inverted (landscape mode) or sidemounted in portrait mode. Tiled installation
is also possible.
The Display Glass consists of two pieces
of 2 mm thick Corning Gorilla Glass and a
55-inch diagonal TAMOLED (Transparent
Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) panel. These components are optically
bonded together employing the proprietary Planar ERO process. Use of Planar ERO
results in a combination of optimum optical performance and ruggedness. The glass
assembly, featuring a front surface anti-reflective coating, is less than 8 mm thick. Bezel
dimensions on the left, right, and top side of the display glass is 6.9 mm.
The Display Glass should never be used as the main load-bearing element for mounting
or as a primary handle or principal support during transport.
The Display Glass is securely joined to the display where that attachment surface creates
the bottom bezel for the Planar LookThru LO552. That bezel width is 95 mm. The Display
Chassis also incorporates the five primary M6 mounting points. Leveling feet are installed
in three of these mounting points in the Planar LookThru LO552. The feet should be
-1380-00B
Page 12
Planar LookThru Transparent OLED Display User Manual
020
Page | 12
Tour of the Planar LookThru Transparent OLED Product Family
removed for a fixed mounting installation. No fewer than three of the primary mounting
holes are recommended to be used for any installation. The Display Chassis is the part of
the display to use as a primary handhold during transport and mounting.
There are five secondary M6 mounting points on the underside of the electronic box.
These should only be used together with the primary mounting points on the Display
Chassis, but never by themselves. A counter weight is attached to the underside of the
electronic box in the
Planar LookThru LO552. The counter weight also serves to create
an acceptable open space for ventilation on the underside of the display. Like the leveling
feet, it should be removed for a fixed mount installation, but provisions must be made for
the proper 5 mm inch spacing.
Note that the corners of the Display Chassis and the right side (viewed from the front) of
the electronic box are chamfered at a 45º angle, allowing a corner or right-angle
installation of Planar LookThru LO552 displays. This is a feature found in all the LO552
family of displays. The bottom view of a Planar LookThru LO552 in the figure below
illustrates the corner chamfers. The leveling feet and counterweight are also shown.
The backside of the electronic box also contains the controlling I/O for the display. This is
shown in the figure below. The power switch and power cord receptacle are centered on
the backside.
The keypad is described in detail in the “OSD Keypad” section on page 23. There are
four HDMI connectors consisting of two HDMI 2.0 compliant and two HDMI 1.4 compliant
inputs. Additionally, there is a DisplayPort 1.2 input and a corresponding DisplayPort
output. The RS-232 and LAN connectors are found on the right side of the electronic box
along with the jack for the remote sensor as well as USB-A and USB-B ports.

Tour of the Planar LookThru Transparent OLED Product Family
Note there is no fan in any of the Planar LookThru LO552 family of displays.
The Straight Mount Model, the Planar LookThru LO552-S, on
the right, is intended to allow mounting on a wall or partition
where space behind the Display Chassis is an issue. Like the
Standard Model, the Planar LookThru LO552-S can be used in
the tiled configuration. The Planar LookThru LO552-S differs
from the Standard Model in that the electronic box has been
relocated 90º downward compared to the Planar LookThru
LO552. It is functionally identical to the Planar LookThru
LO552. The Planar LookThru LO552-S can be mounted in
upright or inverted in landscape mode or in either orientation in
portrait mode. A corner installation of multiple LO552-S
displays is also possible.
Note that the Straight Mount Model is not intended for standalone use; it can only be
used when attached to a support structure.
The primary mounting points on the Display Chassis must be employed for attachment.
The secondary mounting points on the electronic box can also be used, but only along
with the primary points.

5.1 Accessories
Platform Cover
The perforations in the electronic box must not be covered
significantly in any way. Rather than placing items of interest on
the electronic box, we recommend the use of the Platform
Cover that consists of the sheet metal plate and support feet.
There are two magnetic feet that attach to the steel
components of the Display Chassis. The figure on the right
illustrates the use of the Platform Cover.
Tiling Hardware
The Tiling Hardware can be used in tiled installations, either for
flat or corner mounts. There are four tiling assemblies, all made
of up of an interlocking front and back component:
Cross sign shape for flat (2x2 Panels)
T-shape for flat (2x1 Panels)

6. Safe Handling
• When removing the display from its shipping box, use the indicated handhold
locations shown in the picture below. Also grip the underside of the Display Glass in
lifting the display from the shipping box.
• We recommend the display be handled by at least two people. At no time should the
glass be held where the weight of the display is borne by the glass. Proper handling
is demonstrated in the picture below.
• Be certain any surface where the display(s) will be placed can safely support the
70 lbs (31.8 kg) weight of the display.
• We recommend using the shipping box for transport whenever possible.
-1380-00B

7. Environmental Considerations
• The Planar LookThru LO552 is intended for indoor use only.
• Displays should only be installed in an environment where the temperature and
humidity are kept within the proper use range. See the Environmental Specifications
on page 61.
• Planar LookThru LO552 displays should not be operated on a carpet that can stifle
ventilation through the perforations in the underside of the electronic box.
• Planar LookThru LO552 displays are not designed to be sunlight readable.
• Do not locate the displays in direct sunlight or where the Display Glass will be
exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light.
• The electronic box should not be located near heat sources or in an environment
where there is less than 0.47 inches (12 mm) of free space on all sides. Note that the
Display Glass and the Display Chassis do not rise in temperature much above
ambient during operation.
• For best use of the display transparency, make certain there is adequate illumination
in the space behind the screen so that items of interest can be viewed optimally
through the display. We recommend experimenting with the level and orientation of
the illumination.
Unpacking and Installing the Display
8. Installation Disclaimer
Proper installation of the display is the responsibility of the end customer. Failure to
follow the safety and installation instructions in this manual, Content Developer’s Guide
or Fabricator’s Guide, or any installation of the display in a manner not described in this
manual, Content Developer’s Guide or Fabricator’s Guide, may result in damage to the
display or unsafe conditions, which will not be covered by the product warranty.
9. Requirements for All Installations
Make sure the surface or structure where the display is to be mounted is capable of
supporting the weight of the display or displays to be used. Consult the “Specifications”
section on page 61 for weights and measures.
If the display is to be attached to a surface or structure, use the five M6 mounting points
in the Display Chassis as the primary attachment point. The mounting holes in the
electronic box employed can provide supplementary support but should not be used for
mounting by themselves. No fewer than three of primary mounting holes should be used
in any installation.
Make sure the Display Glass maintains a neutral position and is not loaded in any way.
The front Display Glass surfaces should be mounted straight and plumb, i.e.
perpendicular to the horizontal in all axes.
-1380-00B
Page 21
Planar LookThru Transparent OLED Display User Manual
020
Page | 21
Unpacking and Installing the Display
For mounting a Planar LookThru LO552, the leveling feet and counterweight must be
removed. Using two people, we recommend carefully laying the Display Glass on a
suitable countertop with a soft surface with the electronic box perpendicular to the
counter. The leveling feet and counterweight can then be removed safely.
The perforations in the electronic box are a part of the thermal management system and
should never be covered or have any solid surface be located closer than what is defined
in the figure below. This keep-out restriction does not apply under or on top of the Display
Chassis.
We do not recommend that the Straight Mount Model be mounted where the weight of
the display is carried by the bottom surface of the electronic box.
-1380-00B
Page 22
Planar LookThru Transparent OLED Display User Manual
020
Page | 22
10. Multiple Displays
In an installation where one or more displays are mounted above one another, make
certain each display is mounted independently. The weight of a display or displays
mounted above another should not be borne by the lower display.
The Display Glass must be properly aligned and plumb before attachment of the tiling
hardware. The tiling hardware should not be used to bring the Display Glass into
alignment. This will create a permanent load on the glass. Shim and adjust placement of
the display at the mounting points to bring the glass into proper position.
Do not overtighten the tiling hardware.

Operating the Display
Each remote control is shipped with the same identification code, 01785. To change this
code so, for example, individual displays can be controlled separately, the
reprogramming process follows. Both the display and the remote control need to be
programmed:
13.1 Display
1. Navigate to Advanced Settings > System Settings > IR Remote Code.
2. Press the Enter key to start editing the code.
3. Using the numeric keypad on the remote, enter a new code (max value is 0xFFF or
65,535).
4. Press the Enter key to confirm the entry.
13.2 Remote Control
1. On the IR Remote, hold down the Code key for 5 seconds. The red LED on the
remote should turn on and remain on.
2. Enter the same code that was entered on the display (including leading zeros).
3. Once five digits have been entered, the LED should turn off. The remote has been
programmed.
Comments
• The RS-232 command “IR.Code=XXXXX” may also be used to program the display
only.
• If a valid code is not entered and no keys are pressed for 30 seconds, the light will
turn off and the remote will exit programming mode
To expand the coverage of the remote control, an IR sensor with a 112-inch
(2850 mm) long cable is included with every LO552 model, shown on the
right. The phone jack plugs into the port marked “IR” on the perpendicular
backside of the display.
13.3 External Control
In addition to using the Planar remote control and keypad, there are other
methods of controlling the Planar LookThru LO552 display externally:
• Using a serial link to send ASCII commands and to receive responses to
those commands. The same set of commands can be sent over RS 232,
TCP or UDP. See the Planar LookThru RS232 User Manual for more details.
• Using the discrete infrared (IR) codes to program a third-party remote control. See
the “IR Command Protocol” section, next.
-1380-00B
Page 26
Planar LookThru Transparent OLED Display User Manual
The Planar LookThru displays accept commands in the form of IR signals that conform to
the NEC protocol. Each Planar LookThru remote control has an NEC control code
associated with it. These codes can be used to program a third-party “universal” remote
control to work with the Planar LookThru displays. These third-party products usually
come with a computer software application for this purpose. For more information, consult
the documentation provided with the remote control.
The IR control codes have the following characteristics:
• Each code consists of the following:
• A leader pulse (a modulated pulse of 9 ms followed by a non-modulated pulse of
4.5 ms)
• 16 address bits. The default address is 1785 (0x06F9, binary 00000110
11111001)
• 16 data bits: eight (8) bits for the command followed by the logical inverse of the
command
• An end pulse (a modulated pulse of 0.56 ms, similar to the modulated pulse in
the ‘0’ and ‘1’ bits). The end of the modulated pulse constitutes the end of the
data transmission.
• The carrier frequency is 38 kHz, with the modulated pulses having a 33% duty cycle.
• Commands are sent at a maximum rate of 9 Hz.
For example, below is the NEC control code for the ON button of the Planar LookThru
remote control (assuming the default address is used).

16. Turning the Display On
1. Insert the power cord in to the display and into the power outlet.
2. Ensure the AC switch is set to “ “.
3. Press the ON button on the remote or the power button on the keypad.
4. The Planar splash screen should appear within about 15 seconds.
Note: If the Power Saving Mode is enabled and no digital input is connected, the display

This will occur until a digital input is established. See the “Power Submenu” section on
page 40 for more details.
17. Turning the Display Off
The display should always be turned off by either the remote or keypad power button to
extend the life of the display. An image optimization algorithm to keep the image in peak
performance is initiated at power off and can take up to 3 minutes to complete after the
power button is pressed. This algorithm is run after the display has been on for more than
four hours. Indication that the power may be removed from is the display status light will
be solid green.
IR Command Protocol
18. Image Optimization Algorithms
There are two image optimization procedures that may be run on the display to keep the
image operating in peak performance.
1. The first is an automatic process that runs when the power button on the remote or
keypad is used to power off the system. The process will run after four hours of
cumulative display uptime and may take up to three minutes to complete. If power is
removed from the system before or during the process, the optimization will run the
next time the power button is used. The display status indicator will indicate the
optimization is in process by blinking amber and indicate complete when solid green.
2. The second is an automatic process that runs when the display is turned on after a
cumulative uptime of 2000 hours. This is performed after the previous optimization
and may take up to 20 seconds of additional boot time. Power should not be
removed during this process. The display status indicator will indicate the
optimization is in process by blinking green and indicate complete when solid amber.

25.1 Comments about Frame Compensation
When video displays are used in an array, the intent is to display a large version of an
image. However, even the tiniest of mullions can break up the image oddly. Notice the
eagle’s eye here.
One way around this is to adjust the image spacing between displays. Imagine looking
out a window made up of many panes of glass. The image seen is partially obscured by
the frames (mullions), but the visual system assembles the image and ignores the bars.
Note: Frame compensation is also known a mullion or bezel compensation.

Troubleshooting
When the power switch is toggled from the “o” switch position (power off) to the “-“ switch
position (power on), there should immediately be the sound of relay “click” and blue and
green LEDs should illuminate through the perforated cover on the electronic box (when
viewed from above). After less than 20 seconds, a Planar Logo splash screen should
appear for a few seconds. If a live video source is connected and enabled, the image
from the video will be visible directly after the splash screen. A Sources Status window
from the OSD will also be visible for a few seconds. If there is no live video source
connected, the default screen color will be shown (refer to the Blank Screen Color
option in the “Menus and Messages Submenu” section on page 42).
Refer to the “LED Indicators” section on page 30 for information on how to monitor the
real-time status of the video board.
Possible Problem: The power switch is toggled and nothing happens.
Items to check:
Troubleshooting
• Make sure the AC power cable is securely connected at both ends and that AC
power is available.
• There are two fuses in the AC power receptacle. These are 5A, 250V, 5 x 20mm,
FST fuses. Have a qualified technician check these fuses.
Possible Problem: The monitor powers on and shows the splash screen but afterwards
remains in the default screen color.
Items to check:
• Refer to the Inputs and Views Menu (see page 32) and select the video port that is
connected to the desired video source.
If these troubleshooting instructions do not resolve the problem, please contact Planar’s
Technical Support team (http://www.planar.com/support/products/transparent-displays/
to determine the next steps.

Maintenance
27. Cleaning the Display
27.1 Metal Surfaces
• These can be wiped with an absorbent towel. Do not allow any liquid to get into the
electronic box.
• Check the perforated metal of the electronic box periodically for accumulated dust.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove the accumulation.
27.2 Cleaning Front AR Glass
Antireflective coatings can be difficult to clean to perfection. We recommend the
following:
• Use a soft, lint-free towel or paper. Premium cheesecloth works well.
• Use quality glass cleaner suitable for LCD screens. A premium grade of isopropyl
alcohol (IPA) can also be used, either by itself or as a supplement to the glass
cleaner. Use the IPA separately from the glass cleaner, i.e. don’t mix them. Ideally
use different towels for each liquid.
Maintenance
Note: IPA is flammable. DO NOT USE IPA NEAR AN OPEN FLAME OR OTHER
IGNITION SOURCE.
• DO NOT allow either the glass cleaning solution or IPA to enter the electronic box or
the gap between the backside of the Display Glass and the Display Chassis.
• Apply the cleaning liquid, glass cleaner or IPA sparingly to the towel (as opposed to
the glass surface) and start at one side of the screen. Use a circular motion and work
your way across the screen. The glass cleaner should evaporate to a clean, streakfree surface. Some suggestions include:
• Avoid coming in contact with the exposed perimeter found on the LO552 and
LO552-S. Contact with the edge seal may result in introducing a residue onto the
AR coating. This will complicate the cleaning process.
• If the surface is not streak-free, increase the amount of cleaner applied to the
cloth and replace the towels more often.

Maintenance
27.3 Cleaning the Backside of the Display Glass
Use the same materials described above. Again, avoid making contact with the perimeter
silicone seal and don’t allow any liquid into the gap between the backside of the Display
Glass and the Display Chassis. There is no AR coating on the backside of the Display
Glass.
The back side of the display has a protective plastic film that will scratch easier than the
front glass. Be careful not to press too hard when cleaning this surface as particulates
can scratch this film.
