English

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

To ensure proper heat radiation, distance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc. (normally more than 10 cm). Avoid the following installations which will block vents and cause heat to build up inside, resulting in fire hazards.

• Do not attempt to fit the unit inside narrow spaces where ventilation is poor

• If planning special installation such as fitting close to the wall, placing it horizontally, etc., be sure to consult your Pioneer dealer first.

CAUTION:

TO PREVENT THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

Thank you very much for purchasing this PIONEER product. Before using this unit, please carefully read the “Safety Precautions” and these “Operating Instructions” so you will know how to operate the Plasma Display properly. Keep this manual in a safe place. You will find it useful in the future.

The PDA-5003/PDA-5004 is a video card designed for exclusive use with the Pioneer Plasma Display PDP-504CMX/PDP50MXE1/PDP-50MXE1-S (or PDP-434CMX/PDP-43MXE1/PDP43MXE1-S). The PDP-504CMX/PDP-50MXE1/PDP-50MXE1-S (or PDP-434CMX/PDP-43MXE1/PDP-43MXE1-S) plasma display has been originally designed as a computer monitor, but by installing the optional PDA-5003/PDA-5004 video card, the following supplementary features are produced:

1. Allows use of additional input jacks (INPUT 3, 4, 5) supporting S-Video, composite video, component video and analog RGB singals.

2. Allows connection to a wide variety of optional video equipment.

TO SALES AGENTS:

Installation instructions are noted below. When installing the unit, if a screw or other object should drop inside the plasma display, immediately consult your nearest Pioneer Service Center. Continuing operation may result in malfunction. This device has been designed for installation on the Pioneer Plasma Display PDP-504CMX/PDP-50MXE1/PDP-50MXE1-S or PDP-434CMX/PDP-43MXE1/PDP-43MXE1-S. Installation procedures are as follows: Confirm the following before installing this video card:

• Disconnect the plasma display from computer or other components.

• Disconnect the plasma display’s power cord from its outlet.

Installation Notes:

÷ When opening the protective cover, take care not to drop

screws or other objects in the opening. Objects dropped inside the display may cause damage or malfunction.

÷ When installing the video card, if the plasma display is laid

with its screen side facing down, the work surface should be flat and level, and either the packing material, a blanket, or other soft material should be spread on the work surface first to protect the screen. Take care to prevent scratches or other damage to the unit from tools or other objects. Never rest the display on a surface in such a way that weight or pressure is placed only on the screen surface.

÷ This video card has been designed for exclusive use with the

Pioneer Plasma Display PDP-504CMX/PDP-50MXE1/PDP50MXE1-S or PDP-434CMX/PDP-43MXE1/PDP-43MXE1-S. Do not attempt unauthorized modifications or alterations since malfunction or damage may result.

÷ Take care not to modify or damage the card’s internal devices

in any way.

÷ Before installation, take precautions to eliminate static

Installation and Connections

electricity on your body. Do not touch the card’s circuitry or devices.

÷ This device has not been designed to allow reinstallation or

removal; after the card has once been installed on the plasma display, do not attempt to remove it since damage may result.

÷ When installing the PDA-5003, it may be necessary to adjust

the setting of the impedance selector switch. Confirm this item before installing (pages 10, 12).

÷ Do not install the PDA-5002 on the PDP-504CMX/PDP-

50MXE1/PDP-50MXE1-S or PDP-434CMX/PDP-43MXE1/PDP43MXE1-S display units.

Installation

Illustration depicts PDA-5003 model.

1 Remove the protective cover over the video card

How to route cables

Speed clamps and bead bands are included with the plasma display for bunching cables together. Once components are connected, follow the following steps to route cables.

The illustration depicts the PDP-504CMX/PDP-50MXE1/ PDP-50MXE1-S with video card PDA-5003.

Installation and Connections

English

* As viewed from the rear of the display.

1 Organize cables together using the provided

speed clamps.

Insert 1 into an appropriate hole on the rear of the unit, then snap 2 into the back of 1 to fix the clamp.

Speed clamps are designed to be difficult to undo once in place. Please attach carefully.

To attach the speed clamps to the display

Connect the speed clamps using the 6 holes marked with “‡” below, depending on the situation.

To remove speed clamps

Using pliers, twist the clamp 90° and pull it outward. In some cases the clamp may have deteriorated over time and may be damaged when removed.

2 Bunch separated cables together and secure them

with the provided bead bands.

Do not allow excessive stress to be placed on the ends of cables.

Note

Cables can be routed to the right or left.

Selecting input source

This section explains the basic operation of the plasma display. Outlined on the following pages is how to turn 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 “System Settings” starting on page 18. If no connections are made to these terminals, on-screen setup is not necessary.
