How to Use This Manual
This manual has been written to allow easy understanding
of setup and operating procedures when the video card
PDA-5002 is installed in the plasma display.
Remove the video card from its packaging and confirm
that all accessory parts are present. While installing and
setting up the video card, consult the section “Part
Names and Functions” on page 4 of this manual and in
the plasma display’s Operating Instructions to familiarize
yourself with the parts of the respective devices. Since
this manual makes frequent reference to the names of
operating buttons on the plasma display, use the display’s
Operating Instructions to familiarize yourself with the
controls on the display and the remote control unit.
The section “Installation and Connections” on page 6
includes information necessary for installing the video
card on the plasma display, together with instructions
regarding connections to various other components.
The section “Setting Up the System” starting on page 14
covers the necessary on-screen menu settings to
establish correct linkage between the plasma display and
connected components. Depending on the connections
made, this section may or not be necessary.
The remainder of the sections in this manual is dedicated
to the basic operations associated with selecting a source
component up to the more complex operations
associated with adjusting the plasma display picture to
match the requirements of specific components and
personal preferences.
About operations in this manual
Operations in this manual are outlined in step by step
numbered procedures. Most of the procedures are
written in reference to the remote control unit unless the
button or control is only present on the main unit.
However, if a button or control on the main unit has the
same or similar name as that on the remote control unit,
that button can be used when performing operations.
The following example is an actual operation that shows
how one might set the horizontal and vertical positions of
the screen. The screens shown at each step are provided
as a visual guide to confirm that the procedure is
proceeding as it should. Please familiarize yourself with
this process before continuing on with the rest of this
manual.
Note
The screen displays depicted in this manual represent typical
display examples.
The actual items and contents seen in screen displays may vary
depending on input source and specific settings.

This section explains the basic operation of the plasma
display. Outlined on the following pages is how to turn
English
the main power on and off, put this display in the
operation or standby mode and how to select connected
components.
Before you begin, make sure you have:
•
Made connections between the plasma display and AV
components or personal computer as described in the
section “Installation and Connections” starting on page 6.
• Set up the on-screen menu to input signals from
components connected to INPUT1, INPUT2 and
INPUT5 as described in the section “Setting Up the
System” on page 14.
If no connections are made to these terminals,
on-screen setup is not necessary.

Screen Size Selection
The plasma display incorporates screen modes of various
height and width ratios. For optimal viewing, we
English
recommend that you select the screen mode that best
matches the video source that you are viewing. Although
these modes are designed for full display of a picture on a
wide screen, it is our hope that you make use of them
with a full understanding of the manufacturer’s intentions.
Notes
÷ When the WIDE, ZOOM, or FULL setting is used to display a
non-wide screen 4:3 picture fully on a wide screen, a portion
of the picture may be cut off or appear deformed.
÷ Be aware that when the display is used for commercial or
public viewing purposes, selecting the WIDE, ZOOM or FULL
mode settings may violate the rights of authors protected
under copyright law.

Setting the PureCinema mode
When the PureCinema mode is selected, it functions
automatically to detect video signals of movies recorded at 24
frames-per-second, changing the scan settings to allow
English
enjoyment of higher quality movie playback. It does this by
converting the video signal to progressive scan. When using
the PureCinema function, it should odinarily be set to “HQ.”
Note, however, that due to the time required for video signal
processing, a time lag may occur with the audio signal, and if
this lag is objectionable, set the mode to “STANDARD.”
When set to OFF (factory default), only standard progressive
conversion is used.
Note
The PureCinema mode is supported only with 525i (480i) or
NTSC input signals.
This setting must be made independently for each input (INPUT
1 - INPUT 4) used.

Setting the Regional TV System
Format
INPUT3 and INPUT4 are compatible with a number of TV
system formats used around the world, which are
automatically detected by this unit.
Normally “COLOR SYSTEM:AUTO” should be selected
for automatic detection. However, some video signals are
dubbed over or in certain conditions may not be displayed
properly (loss of color, etc.) by this setting. In this case,
change the setting according to the input signal.
Note
Setting the TV system format is required for both INPUT3 and
INPUT4. Setting assignment and exclusive use according to the
TV system format of your input signal will enable prompt
processing of signals and reduction of time for input selection
and possible errors in detecting signals.

Explanation of Terms
Aspect ratio
The TV screen’s width to height ratio is referred to as its aspect
ratio. The aspect ratio on standard TVs is 4:3 and on wide TVs or
High Definition TVs it is 16:9.
S jack (S VIDEO jack)
This jack separates and transmits the video signal as two signals;
the luminance (Y) signal and the color(C) signal. Because of this,
picture reproduction is superior to that obtained at the composite
input/output jacks.
S-video signal
The video signal is composed of two signals; the chroma signal
(color signal) which reproduces color and the luminance signal
which reproduces light and darkness. With standard video
components, these two signals are combined into one and are
handled as a video signal referred to as the “composite signal”.
The S-video signal, however, is a signal that handles these two
signals separately. Because they are not combined as in the
composite video signal, the high quality of both signals can be
retained.
Component video signal
General term for video signal format composed of the Y.CB.CR,
Y. P B.PR and Y.B-Y.R-Y luminance signal + color signal.
The component video signal is sometimes simply called the
“color difference signal”.
G ON SYNC
This indicates a video signal in the form of a synchronization
signal added to the G (GREEN) signal of the R.G.B signal.
VGA
VGA is short for “Video Graphics Array”.
Generally this indicates a 640 dot x 480 line resolution.
XGA
General term for “eXtended Graphics Array”.
Generally this indicates a 1024 dot x 768 line resolution.
