Features

¶ Introduces newly developed 42" Wide Plasma Panel

The new wide high-precision 42" plasma panel (1024x768 / 16:9) pushes the envelope of previous high-luminance panels,

English

producing brighter, clearer images with higher contrast.

¶ ES Slot interface for enhanced potential

The display is provided with a built-in ES Slot Interface to allow the installation of cards for the connection of external devices, thus enhancing its expansion potential.

¶ Supports wide range of computer signals (analog/

digital)

Supports non-compressed display of signals ranging from 640x400 and 640x480 (VGA) to 1024x768 (XGA), and compressed display of 1280x1024 (SXGA), 1400x1050 (SXGA+) and 1600x1200 (UXGA) signals. Further, aspect ratio and screen size settings supported include [DOT BY DOT], [4:3] and [FULL] (*1). * Supported signals are different on INPUT1 and INPUT2. *1 Aspect ratio and screen size appearance will differ depending

on input signal.

¶ Free Installation Configuration

– Broader installation possibilities with thinner, lighter, high-endurance design –

While producing a large 42" screen image, the display is only 98 mm thick, and weighs in at only 30.5 kg. On the other hand, the efficient heat-radiating design greatly improves environmental operating conditions. The thinner, lighter design, coupled to highendurance construction greatly broadens the range of possible installation locations and styles.

¶ High reliability for commercial applications

This display is provided with features giving it high dependability in commercial applications, including the ability to suppress peak luminance in accordance with the viewing program, and to change the cooling fan’s speed in accordance with changes in operating environment. Such features provide safety and highendurance under conditions of commercial use.

¶ Improved usability

User convenience has been improved by the inclusion of features making the display even more compatible with your computer. Some of these include the one-touch screen adjustment, [AUTO SET UP] function for computer connections, and the POINT ZOOM function to enlarge local portions of the screen image to display important detailed program data.

Features

¶ Power-Saving Design

The display is provided with a variety of power-saving functions, including an automatic brightness function with ambient light sensor.
