If the site requires modifications or special preparations before installing the Plasma Display or its mounting hardware,
obtain permission in advance from the building owner or building authorities. To ensure safety, it is also important to
determine the strength of the installation site with the help of an authorized building contractor.
Safety Precautions
1) Structure of the installation site
Thoroughly study the structure of the installation site before determining the most suitable installation method.
Buildings vary in structure and materials, thus the best mounting choice differs at each location. When drilling into
walls, check for internal electrical wiring and hidden pipes.
2) Weight capacity of the installation site
Select a location sufficient to support the total weight of the display and mounting hardware.
3) Flat, level surfaces
Select a flat, level surface so that the mounting hardware is parallel to the proposed mounting surface.
Install the unit so that the load is evenly distributed along the ceiling or floor, as well as on mounting hardware such as
from hang bolts.
4) Sufficient work space
Select a location with sufficient space for installation preperations. The panel mounting should be conducted by two or
more people.
5) Nearby equipment
If air conditioning ducts, lamps, etc. are located near the installation site, dust, temperatures fluctuations, humidity, and
condensation may cause problems. Please take steps to avoid this possibility.
6) Safe locations
Do not install the unit where it may be easily touched or leaned against. Avoid locations subject to high vibration or
severe impacts.
7) Lighting conditions
• Check existing lighting and sunlight angles when considering an installation layout. Bright lighting can reduce the
visibility and quality of a displayed image.
• In very bright surroundings, adjusting screen intensity may not result in perceptibly brighter images. Extreme intensity
settings can reduce a system’s service life.
8) Other installation conditions
The panel is designed for indoor use and is not suited for open-air use. Installation in locations that are even partially
exposed to the elements may lead to malfunctions or breakdown. If there is a danger of being subjected to the conditions
listed below, it is necessary to limit the exposure as much as possible.
• Water or other liquids and dust
• Temperature and humidity changes
• Salt-bearing wind
• Direct sunlight (avoid sites exposed to direct sunlight upon the display as this can degrade image quality)
20
[507CMX : 427CMX]
9) Temperature and humidity conditions
• The installation site should meet the following conditions:
• Operating temperatures: 0 °C to 40 °C (largely depending on installation conditions)
• Operating humidity: 20 % to 80 %
• Storage temperature: –20 °C to 60 °C
• Storage humidity: 20 % to 90 %
• Operating atmospheric pressure: 800 hPa to 1100 hPa
• Storage atmospheric pressure: 700 hPa to 1114 hPa
• We discourage installing electronic products such as this unit in locations subject to high humidity. If the unit is to be
installed in a location subject to relatively high humidity, observe the following:
• Failure to install the unit in acceptable ways may result in non-warranty damages.
• Make sure the unit is grounded.
• Do not allow water or other liquids to enter the unit.
10) Prevent condensation
A primary problem during the winter is condensation forming on or in electronic equipment. Rapid temperature fluctuations
can leave water vapor inside the unit or on the screen, degrading performance. If condensation occurs, turn the unit
OFF for an hour or more then increase the room temperature gradually before turning ON the unit.
Consult Pioneer authorized dealers for assistance.
Installation Site Requirements
11) Power requirements
• This unit functions properly when powered at ±10 % of its rated voltage. Characteristics of power lines may effect
the voltage output. If any of the following issues occur, contact an electrician to inspect the power source.
-- Significant voltage drop between the circuit panel and the Plasma Display
-- Significant changes in voltage when switching the display power ON or OFF
• Please allow the following margin for power consumption per unit.
PDP-507CMX: 370 W = 370 VA
PDP-427CMX: 320 W = 320 VA
(NOTE)
When powering up the unit, the in-rush current is approximately 30 A.
• A grounded three-core power cable is used by the Plasma Display in order to maintain its functions.
Connect the power cord by inserting it into a grounded electrical outlet.
When using a different power source, use a conversion plug. Insert it into a grounded electrical outlet and securely
attach the ground wire.
• A leakage current within a value, stipulated by standards in each country, flows from an internal noise filter through
devices installed inside switching power sources such as television sets or air-conditioners. Because these currents
are added together when multiple units are connected, take steps to prevent electric shock caused by ground wires,
etc. When a leakage breaker is installed in a power distribution series, choose the leakage breaker rating that is at
least two times the total leakage current.
When many devices are connected, increase the number of leakage breakers and form branches in the wiring system.
12) Effective remote control distance
The remote control of this display receives at the following angles and distances.
• Front: 8 m
• Left-right 45°: 3 m/Left-right 30°: 7 m
• Upward 30°: 3.5 m/Upward 15°: 5 m
• Downward 30°: 5 m
If other products controlled with infrared remote controls are placed nearby, remote control function may be affected.
In such cases, move other devices further away from the display or contact a Pioneer-authorized dealer for assistance.
Depending on installation conditions, the remote control range may be reduced by infrared radiation emitted by the
screen.
The screen’s infrared intensity varies, depending upon the displayed image.

3.2.2 Calculating heat quantity
As a courtesy to our customers, we have included the power formula for calculating air conditioning needs.
For power consumption, allow 370 W = 370 VA per unit.
Since most of the power consumed is transformed into heat, power consumption may be regarded as roughly equal to
generated heat.
1 Conversion to calories
[W] × 0.86 = [kcal/h]
Heat generated per display: 370 W × 0.86 = 318 kcal/h
2 Conversion to British Thermal Units
[W] × 3.41 = [BTU/h]
Heat generated per unit: 370 W × 3.41 = 1262 BTU/h
3.2.3 Product mounting holes
We recommend using mounting hardware available from Pioneer. If you use other mounting hardware, mount the
hardware to the unit using the M8-bolt holes on the unit. Tighten the bolts with a torque between 50 kg/cm and 80 kg/
cm. Applying a torque beyond these limits may lead to internal component failure.

Installation Procedures[507CMX : 427CMX]
3.4.4 Re-packing (re-packing and re-shipping are not covered by the warranty)
If the unit needs to be re-packaged, observe the following guidelines.
• Refer to the unpacking instructions in section “3.4.2 Unpacking” (pg. 30 to 32). Pack the unit by reversing the
unpacking procedure. There is a front and back to the miller mat. Place the shiny film surface facing out and the
soft surface facing in towards the display glass.
• Restore all accessories to their original locations. Secure with adhesive tape to prevent damage during
transportation.
• Do not re-package and ship if the packing material is damaged.
3.4.5 Wiring
1) Connecting the power cable
• Refer to the “ Power Cord Connection ” section in the operating instructions.
• For power source specifications, refer to “3.1 Installation Site Requirements, Section 11) Power requirements”
(pg. 21) earlier in this document.
2) Connecting signal cables
• Refer to the operating instructions shipped with the unit for information on how to connect a PC or audio
device.
• Precautions when using long connecting signal cables
-- Use coaxial cables. For video signals use 3 C-2 V cables for lengths up to 15 meters and 5 C-2 V cables for
lengths up to 30 meters. Because computer signals are more likely to degrade than video signals, even if the
cable is shorter than 15 m, the use of 5 C-2 V coaxial multi-cables (5BNC) is recommended. You can also
improve signal quality by minimizing cable length.
-- Video cables plugged into video inputs and outputs close to dimmers, neon signs, air-conditioning units, or
cables for wired broadcasts may occasionally corrupt images.
3) Processing wires
• For permanent or long-term installation, please select cables of the correct length and consider the entire wiring
route. This is not as important for temporary or short-term installations such as at special events.
• Arrange and secure cables so that they are not subject to pinching or physical force. For temporary installations,
securing cables with string is adequate. For permanent installations, secure by more reliable means.

How to use the standard mounting components
[507CMX : 427CMX]
4.1 Standard Mounting Components Features and Characteristics
In addition to reliability and vivid display resulting from its large screen area, brightness, and image quality, the Plasma
Display (PDP-507CMX/PDP-427CMX) is thin and lightweight. This panel can be mounted in locations not possible for
conventional displays.
We considered various mounting patterns and operating conditions during the design of the Plasma Display (PDP-
507CMX/PDP-427CMX). A wide range of standard mounting hardware is available for easy mounting.
¶ Video Card: PDA-5003/PDA-5004
The video card makes video input and analog RGB input possible.
This product has a total of three lines: a COMPOSITE (1), S INPUT (1), and an analog RGB INPUT or COMPONENT
INPUT (1). Furthermore, it can handle three-line or two-line audio, thus increasing the uses for video presentations.
¶ Table Top Stand: PDK-TS07
This on-board support designed for the Plasma Display enables vertical placement of the unit.
¶ Tilt Mount Unit: PDK-5011
This mount permits tilting of the display downward from the horizontal by up to 25 degrees. Mount depth is 145 mm
or less (in vertical position, without optional speaker). This hardware permits a wide range of viewing angles.
¶ Wall Mount Unit: PDK-WM01
Distance from the rear surface of the Plasma Display to the wall is 32 mm.
This mount provides installation holes for various wall-mounting arrangements. The mount is constructed so that it
can be easily attached to the main unit.
¶ Ceiling Mount Unit: PDK-5012
Simple rod-type mounting hardware permits display panning over a range of 45 degrees and up to 25-degree downward
tilting from the horizontal. This hardware enables installation of the unit in a wide variety of locations.
¶ Mobile Cart: PDK-5014
This is an extremely stable movable stand that one person can use to freely move the Plasma Display.
It can also be used to adjust the screen height and the screen angle to match the line of sight.
¶ PDP Bracket: PDK-5005 (Can be used only with the PDP-507CMX)
Can be used as a handle when moving the unit, or as a frame when wire-suspending it or hanging it on the wall. Most
suitable for temporary use when quick, easy, and safe attachment is necessary.
