6.6 RS-232 REMOTE CONTROL CONNECTIONS

RS-232 Serial Terminal Overview

This monitor is equipped with an RS-232 serial terminal for using the monitor with computer controls. The RS-232 serial terminal conforms to the RS-232C interface specification. The computer requires a software application (such as programming language software) which allows the computer to send and receive control data that supports the communications parameters listed below.

Communications Parameters

These parameters are required to setup communications with the monitor.

Pin Layout for RS-232 Terminal

The RS-232C terminal pin layout are as follows:

Basic Format for Command Parameters

In order to transmit data from the computer to the monitor, the data must be sent in 1-byte-hex format.

The command code (see page 25) must first be sent to the monitor, followed by the desired value setting in hexadecimal format. The steps below show an example of how the monitor input can be changed to RGB:

1 Send 1-byte for command 91 (input select) to the monitor in hex

format 0x91.

2 Send 1-byte for the value of the RGB input. In this example, send

0x06.

3 The monitor will then respond back to the PC with a 1-byte value to

confirm the setting.

Notes:

● To connect a PC to the monitor's RS-232 port, you must use a

"straight-thru" RS-232 cable where pins 2 (RX) and 3 (TX) are not reversed at one end.

● If there are no data to be sent, then the parameter signal does not

need to be sent.

7.4 UNDERSTANDING HDTV

What is Digital Television or DTV?

Digital TVs are televisions that can receive and display digital television broadcasts sent using any one of three following categories: HDTV (High Definition TV), EDTV (Enhanced Digital TV), and SDTV (Standard Definition TV).

What is the Difference Between HDTV, EDTV, and SDTV?

HDTV, EDTV, and SDTV are three grades of televison or monitors. They reference the maximum resolution capability of a digital television or monitor to fully display digital broadcasts without having to “downconvert” the actual signal content to fit the monitor’s display limitations.

The resolution requirements for each of the three DTV classifications and an explanation of the specifications are described below:

HDTV grade televisions and monitors are capable of displaying a maximum of either 1080 lines using interlaced scan method or 720 lines using progressive scan method.l

EDTV grade televisions and monitors are capable of displaying a maximum of 480 lines using progressive scan method. All resolutions higher than 480 lines must be reduced to 480 lines in order to be displayed. Progressive scan method reduces flicker; however, picture quality may not necessarily outperform 480 interlaced when viewed at normal viewing distances.

SDTV grade televisions and monitors are capable of displaying a maximum of 480 lines using interlaced scan method. All resolutions higher than 480 lines must be reduced to 480 lines in order to be displayed.

1. Vertical Resolution (Scan Lines)

Vertical scan lines refer to the number of horizontal lines a TV or monitor can display to create an image. As the number of lines increase, more information is displayed, resulting in better picture quality.

2. Horizontal Resolution

Each horizontal line in a TV or monitor is made up of individual dots (pixels). The higher the number of pixels, the finer the TV picture becomes. Horizontal pixel measurements using today's technology can range from 250 for a VCR to as much as 500 for a DVD player.

3. Aspect Ratio

Aspect ratio identifies the ratio of the TV screen's width over its height. A 16:9 aspect ratio refers to a wide-screen picture format, while a 4:3 refers to a standard “square” TV format.

4. Scan Mode

Interlaced scanning is a method that creates a TV picture with alternating lines of information and is the cause for flickering. Progressive scanning is a method that creates a TV picture with consecutive lines of information that results in flicker-free picture quality.

How is a HDTV/EDTV/SDTV Different from a HDTV/ EDTV/SDTV Monitor?

In order to receive digital broadcasts, a digital "receiver" or "decoder" must be used to receive and decode digital broadcast signals. Digital decoders can be built into the monitor itself or they may come in the form of a set-top box that is added separately to the monitor. HDTV/EDTV/SDTV Monitors are digital monitors without a digital decoder built into the television whereas HDTV/EDTV/SDTV Televisions are displays with a decoder built-in. HDTV/EDTV/SDTV Monitors give you the flexibility to add a digital decoder in the future when digital broadcasts are more prevalent.

What is "Down-Convert"?

Down-convert takes place when a digital broadcast signal exceeds the display capabilities of the monitor and the broadcast signal is reduced to match the monitor's limited display capabilities. For example, if a TV station broadcasts a digital program using 1080 lines (1080i format) while the monitor can only display 480 lines, the signal is reduced or down-converted to only 480 lines, resulting in lesser information being displayed.

This plasma monitor is HDTV compatible. This means that this monitor can display up to 720 lines using progessive scan format; and 1080 lines using interlace scan format.

What is "Up-Convert"?

Up-convert takes place when a HDTV set up box display capabilities exceed the digital broadcast signal and the broadcast signal is increased to match the TV's display capabilities. For example, if a TV station broadcasts a digital program using 480 lines and the HDTV set up box is able to display 1080 lines, the signal is increased or “up-converted” to match the TV.

This monitor includes advanced digital processing where all traditional analog television and video formats (NTSC / PAL) in the form interlaced signals are up-converted to 480 lines progressive scan method. Please note that upconversion may result in some picture artificacts because information is being artificially added to the picture.

Is This Plasma Monitor Compatible with HDTV set up box?

This plasma monitor is compatible with HDTV set up box. In order to receive HDTV broadcasts, you will need to use a "HDTV decoder" or "HDTV set-top box" with component video output, RGB video or DVI output. Please consult your local sales representative prior to purchasing a HDTV decoder or HDTV set-top box.

8.2 WIDESCREEN (16:9 ASPECT RATIO) VIEWING

MODES

Understanding Widescreen Modes

This plasma monitor is capable of displaying a widescreen image on the native 16:9 aspect ratio screen. However, not all available broadcast or video content fits perfectly in a widescreen (16:9) format resulting in unused screen space. Please use the following guidelines to determine suitable widescreen viewing modes available that best support the type of broadcast / video content you wish to display. All widescreen viewing modes are available by pressing the WIDE key. Pressing the WIDE key will repeatedly cycle through:

For 4:3 Aspect Ratio (Square) Content

Content from VCR, and some DVD’s are formatted using a “square” 4:3 format.

Then we recommend the following three viewing options:

■ 4:3 (NORMAL)

In 4:3 mode, the original 4:3 image is preserved but black bars are added to the the extra space on the left and right.

■ 16:9 (FULL)

The original 4:3 image is proportionally stretched to fill the entire screen.

■ PANORAMA

The original 4:3 image is expanded in both the horizontal and vertical directions. The center of the picture is almost normal while the edges are considerably expanded.

For Widescreen Content

Many popular DVD titles are "anamorphic" (widescreen); however, there are two predominant “anamorphic” (widescreen) aspect ratios:

2.35:1 and 1.85:1. When a 2.35:1 content is displayed on this 16:9 widescreen monitor, you will notice smaller black bars on top or bottom of the screen. When a 1.85:1 content is displayed, you will still see black bars, but not as large as 2.35:1.

11. CLEANING AND TROUBLESHOOTING

11.1 CLEANING

Cautions When Using the Plasma Monitor

■ Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation

holes of the plasma monitor. Top of plasma monitor is usually very hot due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries may occur if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the monitor could also result in heat related damages to the object as well as the monitor itself.

■ Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the plasma monitor.

Moving the monitor with its cables attached may damage the cables and thus case fire or electric shock danger.

■ Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety

precaution before carrying out any type of cleaning or maintenance procedure.

Front Panel Cleaning Instructions

■ The front of the monitor has been specially treated. Wipe the

surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.

■ If the surface is particular dirty, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in a mild

detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Wipe the surface of the monitor to remove dirt. Then use a dry cloth of the same type to dry.

■ Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingers or hard

objects of any kind.

■ Do not use volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and

thinners.

Cabinet Cleaning Instructions

■ If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth.

■ If the cabinet is extremely dirty, soak a lint-free cloth in a mild

detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove as much moisture possible. Wipe the cabinet. Use another dry cloth to wipe over until the surface is dry.

■ Do not allow any water or detergent to come into contact with the

surface of the monitor. If water or moisture gets inside the unit, operating problems, electrical and shock hazards may result.

■ Do not scratch or hit the cabinet with fingers or hard objects of any

kind.

■ Do not use volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and

thinners on the cabinet.

■ Do not place anything made from rubber or PVC near the cabinet

for any extended periods of time.
