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 1Received Line Signal Detector (Data Carrier Detect)
Pin 2Received Data (RXD)
Pin 3Transmit Data (TXD)
Pin 4Data Terminal Ready (DTR)
Pin 5Signal Ground
Pin 6Data Set Ready (DSR)
Pin 7Request To Send (RTS)
Pin 8Clear To Send (CTS)
Pin 9Ring Indicator
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.

7.4UNDERSTANDING 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
Vertical Res.

Horizontal Res.2Aspect Ratio
3
Scan Method
480 lines640 dots4:3 WideProgressive
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.

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.

8.2WIDESCREEN (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.
If you do not want to see the black bars when playing back a widescreen
movie, you can set to ZOOM 2 or ZOOM 3 to fully stretch the image.
■ ZOOM: 1
Zoom1 shifts the image up to faciliate the display of subtitles.
■ ZOOM: 2
Zoom 2 is set to stretch 1.85:1 content to full screen eliminating the
black bars.
■ ZOOM: 3
Zoom 3 is set to stretch 2.35:1 content to full screen eliminating the
black bars.

11. CLEANING AND TROUBLESHOOTING
11.1CLEANING
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.
User Manual BDH4222V/4223V
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.
