The NEC plasma monitor is designed and manufactured to provide long, trouble-free service. No maintenance other than cleaning is required. Use a soft
dry cloth to clean the panel. Ne v er use solvents such
as alcohol or thinner to clean the panel surface.
The plasma display panel consists of fine picture elements (cells). Although NEC produces the plasma display panels with more than 99.99 percent activ e cells,
there may be some cells that do not produce light or
remain lit.
For operating saf ety and to a v oid damage to the unit,
read carefully and observe the following instructions.
To avoid shock and fire hazards:
1. Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal heat build-up. Do not cover rear v ents or install in a
closed cabinet or shelves.
The unit is equipped with cooling fans. If you install
the unit in an enclosure, be sure there is adequate space
at the top of the unit to allow hot air to rise and escape.
If the monitor becomes too hot, the overheat protector
will be activated and the monitor will be turned off. If
this happens, turn off the power to the monitor and unplug the power cord. If the room where the monitor is
installed is particularly hot, move the monitor to a cooler
location, and wait for the monitor to cool for 60 minutes. If the problem persists, contact your NEC dealer
for service.

Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor burn-in
Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas
plasma displays, PlasmaSync monitors can be susceptible
to phosphor burn under certain circumstances. Certain
operating conditions, such as the continuous display of a
static image over a prolonged period of time, can result in
phosphor burn if proper precautions are not taken. To protect your investment in this NEC PlasmaSync monitor,
please adhere to the following guidelines and recommendations for minimizing the occurrence of image burn:
* Always enable and use your computer's screen saver
function during use with a computer input source.
* Display a moving image whenever possible.
* Always power down the monitor when you are f inished
using it.
Power cable (supplied)
core (large)
band
(Plasma Monitor side)
Set side
To avoid damage and prolong operating life:
1. Use only with 120V 50/60Hz AC power supply. Continued operation at line voltages greater than 120 Volts
AC will shorten the life of the unit, and might even
cause a fire hazard.
2. Handle the unit carefully when installing it and do not
drop.
3. Locate set away from heat, excessive dust, and direct
sunlight.
4. Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small
metal objects. In case of accident, unplug the unit and
have it serviced by an authorized NEC Service Center.
5. Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes
flaws on the surface of the screen.
6. As is the case with any phosphor-based display (like a
CRT monitor, for example) light output will gradually
decrease over the life of a Plasma Display Panel.
NEC has built-in several operating modes in your
PlasmaSync PD Series monitor to help you reduce the
likelihood of phosphor burn. These are called the
AccuShield Phosphor Protection System. If the
Plasmasync monitor is in long-term use or continuous operation, use the functions available in AccuShield to reduce the likelihood of perceptible phosphor burn or to diminish its perceptible effects if it occurs. See pages 42,44
and 45 for instructions on how to use the Orbiter, Low
Brightness and Inverse RGB modes of AccuShield.
* Lower the Brightness and Contrast levels as much as
possible without impairing image readability . (See page
24, 29)
* Display an image with many colors and color gradations
(ie. photographic or photo-realistic images).
* Create image content with minimal contrast between light
and dark areas, for example white characters on black
backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel color whenever possible.
* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct,
sharply defined borders between colors.

Mises en garde et précautions de
sécurité
Le moniteur PlasmaSync NEC a été conçu et fabriqué
pour une utilisation fiable et durable. Il ne nécessite
aucun entretien en dehors du nettoyage. Utiliser un
chiffon doux et sec pour nettoy er la surf ace de l'écran.
Ne jamais utiliser de solvant comme l'alcool ou le
diluant. Le panneau à affichage plasma est constitué
de fines particules d'images ou pixels (cellules). Bien
que NEC produise des panneaux à affichage plasma
avec plus de 99,99 % de cellules actives, il peut y
avoir des cellules qui ne produisent pas de lumière
ou qui restent allumées.
Pour des raisons de sécurité et pour éviter
d'endommager l'appareil, lire attentivement les instructions suivantes.
Pour éviter les risques d'éléctrocution et d'incendie:
1. Laisser suffisament d'espace autour de l'appareil pour
la ventilation et éviter toute augmentation excessiv e de
la température interne. Ne pas couvrir les évents ou
l'installer dans un endroit trop exigu.
L'appareil est équipé de ventilateurs de refroidissement.
Si vous installez l'appareil dans un espace clos, assurezvous qu'il y ait suffisamment d'espace au dessus pour
permettre à l'air chaud de s'élever et de s'évacuer.
Si la température du moniteur devient excessiv e, la protection contre les surchauffes entrera en action et
coupera l'alimentation. Dans ce cas, éteindre l'appareil
et débrancher le câble d'alimentation. Si la température
de la pièce dans laquelle le moniteur est installé est
particulièrement excessive, déplacer l'appareil dans un
endroit plus frais et le laisser refroidir 60 minutes. Si le
problème persiste, prendre contact avec le revendeur
NEC pour le service après-vente.
2. Ne pas utiliser la fiche polarisée du cordon
d’alimentation avec des prolongateurs ou des prises de
courant, sauf si les lames peuvent être insérées à fond.
3. Ne pas exposer à L'eau ou à l’humidité.
4. Eviter d’endommager le cordon d’alimentation, et ne
pas modifier le cordon d’alimentation.

REMARQUE:
Lorsque vous branchez un micro-ordinateur sur ce
moniteur, fixez les noyaux en ferrites fournis. Si vous
ne le faîtes, le moniteur ne sera pas en conformité avec
les exigences des standards FCC.
Fixation des noyaux en ferrite.
Installez les noyaux en ferrite sur chaque bout du câble
DVI (non fourni), ainsi que sur un côté du câble
d’alimentation électrique (fourni).
Fermez doucement le couvercle jusqu’à ce que les
crans se clipsent.
Utilisez le collier plastique pour fixer la tore en ferrite.
Pour éviter le risque de combustion au phosphore, les
mesures suivantes sont recommandées :
Comme tous les appareils d'affichage à base de phosphore
et tous les autres affichages à gaz plasma, les moniteurs
Plasmasync peuvent être sujets à la combustion au
phosphore dans certaines circonsatnces. Certaines conditions d'utilisation, telles que l'affichage continu d'une image statique pour une durée prolongée, peuvent causer des
brûlures au phophore si aucune précaution n'est prise. Pour
protéger votre inv estissement dans ce moniteur PlasmaSync
NEC, veuillez suivre les directi ves et les recommandations
suivantes pour minimiser l'occurence de brûlure d'image :
Câble DVI (non fourni)
Collier plastique
noyau (petit)
câble d’alimentation électrique
(fourni)
Collier plastique
Collier plastique
noyau (petit)
(côté du moniteur à plasma)
connecteur
noyau (large)
côté de l’appareil
Pour éviter des dommages et prolonger la durée de
service de l’appareil:
1. N’utiliser qu’une source d’alimentation de 120 V 50/
60 Hz CA. Le fait d’utiliser l’appareil en continu à des
tensions de ligne supérieures à 120 Volts CA réduit sa
durée de vie et risque de provoquer un incendie.
2. Manipuler l’appareil avec soin pendant son déplacement
et ne pas le faire tomber.
3. Eloigner l’appareil des endroits chauds, très poussiéreux
et exposés en plein soleil.
4. Eviter que des liquides et des petits objets métalliques
pénètrent à l’intérieur de l’appareil. En cas d’accident,
débrancher l’appareil et le confier à un centre de service agréé NEC.
5. Ne pas frapper ou rayer la surface de la écran plasma,
car des défauts risquent de se produire sur la surface de
la écran plasma.
6. Comme c'est le cas pour tout affichage à base de
phosphore (comme un moniteur CRT, par exemple), la
puissance de lumière baisse graduellement au cours de
la vie du Panneau d'Affichage à Plasma.
• Assurez-vous de mettre en marche et d'utliser
l'économisateur d'écran chaque fois que c'est possible
lorsque vous l'utilisez avec une source d'entrée
d'ordinateur.
• Affichez une image en mouvement aussi souvent que
possible.
• Coupez toujours l'alimentation lorsque vous avez terminé
d'utiliser la moniteur.
Si le PlasmaSync moniteurs est en usage continu ou longue
durée, prenez les mesures suivantes af in d'éviter l'occurence
de combustion au phosphore :
• Abaissez le niveau de l'image (contraste, luminosité)
autant que possible, sans faire perdre la lisibilité de
l'image.
• Affichez une image avec de nombreuses couleurs et
graduations de couleur (par ex. des images
photographiques ou photo-réalistes).
• Créez un contenu d'image avec un contraste minimal
entre les zones sombres et les zones claires, par exemple,
des caractères blancs sur un fond noir. Utilisez des
couleurs complémentaires ou pastels le plus souvent
possible.
• Évitez d'afficher des images a v ec peu de couleurs et des
limites nettes et clairement définies entre les couleurs.

The power management function is an energy saving function that automatically reduces the power consumption of the
display when the keyboard or the mouse have not been used for a fixed period. The power management function of the
display becomes operational when the monitor is used with a personal computer based on the VESA DPMS and DVI
DMPM system.
When preparing to display a personal computer screen, check that the personal computer is properly connected to this unit
and that the personal computer power is on.
When the personal computer power is off, the po w er management function will be activated and this unit will be set to the
off mode.
For information about the power management setting method, see the operating system (OS) manual of the personal
computer you are using. To see the video when the power management function is operating, setting the input selection to
video will switch the function off.
Power Management Modes
There are three modes in the power management function.
* Standby mode
The standby mode is set when the horizontal sync signal from the personal computer is not input.
The image will be displayed immediately upon the input of the horizontal sync signal.
* Suspend mode
The suspend mode is set when the vertical sync signal from the personal computer is not input.
The image will be displayed about 4 seconds after the input of the vertical sync signal.
* Off mode
This unit is set to the off mode when the horizontal/vertical sync signals from the personal computer are not input.
The image will be displayed about 4 seconds after the input of the horizontal/vertical sync signal.
This is the only power management mode using RGB3 input. When there is no TMDS link, the off mode is set. (This
power state is equivalent to the DPMS “off” state.) Displayed approximately 4 seconds after the TMDS link is restored.
