Cleaning

Regular cleaning will extend the life and performance of this unit. The recommended way to clean the display and related parts is described below.

Before cleaning, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

Cleaning the display panel body and remote control

Do not under any circumstances use solvents such as benzine or thinner for cleaner. Use of such liquids may cause deterioration or peeling of paint from the display or remote control unit. Wipe the display and remote control gently with a soft cloth. In the case of excessive dirt buildup, dampen a soft cloth with a diluted neutral cleaning detergent and after wringing the cloth thoroughly, wipe the component and then dry it with a dry soft cloth.

Cleaning the vents

As a general rule, use a vacuum cleaner about once a month to clean the vents on the rear panel of the display of dust buildup (set the vacuum cleaner to its weakest setting when doing this). Using the unit without cleaning it of dust will cause the internal temperature to increase, resulting in possible breakdown or fire.

• When the video input signal’s level is too high, the bright portions may appear to be losing their intensity. Increase the adjustment level of the contrast and check the picture.

• May be caused by radio wave interference from appliances with motors such as hair dryers, electric vacuum cleaners, electric power drills, ignition systems of cars, motorcycles etc., switch devises such as thermostats etc., neon signs or electrical discharge from power lines etc.

• May be caused by radio wave mingling from TV station, FM station, amateur radios, public radios (simplified radios) etc., or a nearby personal computer, TV, or video/audio component.

•A strong electromagnetic field may cause picture distortion and similar problems.

• Normal sound of the cooling fan and internal sliding parts of the Plasma Display panel. Not a malfunction.

• Fan speed changes automatically in accordance with ambient conditions. Not a malfunction.

• The ON indicator may not light in some cases, depending on the settings performed by the installer. Consult with your installation technician.

Precautions regarding use

Panel sticking and after-image lag

• Displaying the same images such as still images for a long time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the following two cases.

1. After-image lagging due to remaining electrical load

When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed for more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load. The after-images remaining on the screen will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the after-images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still images and the time they had been displayed.

2. After-image (lag image) due to burning

Avoid displaying the same image on the Plasma Display continuously over a long period of time. If the same image is displayed continuously for several hours, or for shorter periods of time over several days, a permanent after-image may remain on the screen due to burning of the fluorescent materials. Such images may become less noticeable if moving images are later displayed, but they will not disappear completely. The same kind of burning of a lag image may also be produced after extended multi-hour use, or recurrent daily use for shorter periods of a single [4:3] screen size, or [DOT BY DOT] image. Except in cases where violation of intellectual property rights may be involved, it is recommended that lag-image burning be avoided by selecting a screen size that displays images over the entire screen.

• In addition, the [ORBITER] function and [ENERGY SAVE] function can also be used to reduce the chance of lag image formation.

Note

Special precautions must be employed when using the Plasma Display as a surveillance monitor or in other applications where a fixed image will be displayed for extended periods of time. Before using the monitor in such applications, consult your dealer for advice. When using this unit as a monitor for a surveillance camera, it is recommended to set the [ENERGY SAVE] function to [MODE3] or [MODE2].

About the Plasma Display’s protection function

The brightness of this display will deteriorate slightly when an image with little movement such as a photograph or computer image is continuously displayed. This is caused by the Plasma Display’s protection function which detects images with slight movement and automatically adjusts brightness to protect the display, and is not a malfunction. The screen-saver function begins operating when the display detects no or little screen movement for a period of about three minutes; the function is an automatic feature and cannot be turned OFF.

Pixel failure

The Plasma Display screen is composed of a high numbers of tiny pixel elements constructed in a high-precision array, but on occasion one or more of the pixels may fail to light, or may light erratically. This is an inevitable by-product of the manufacturing process and not a malfunction.

Additional Information

Concerning infrared light

In principle, the Plasma Display radiates infrared light. Depending on the environment in which the monitor is installed and used, infrared remote control units for other nearby appliances may fail to operate properly, or noise may be heard in wireless headphones. In such cases, move the affected appliance to a location where its infrared sensor is not affected.

Electromagnetic interferrence

This unit is built in compliance with official standards for eletromagnetic interference, but it nonetheless may produce a low level of radio noise. This noise may be noticeable if AM radios, computers, or video appliances are installed too close to the display. In such cases, remove the affected appliance to a location where it is not affected.

Drive Noise

When power is turned on, some degree of drive noise may be heard; this is normal and not a malfunction.

Plasma Display Temperature

When the display is used for long periods of time, some parts of the display may retain heat and the display may become hot to the touch; this is normal and not a malfunction.

Additional cautions

• If the power is automatically turned off during operation of this unit, the following reasons may be the cause.

1 Is the [POWER MGT.] function set to [ON]? 2 The surrounding temperature has risen above 40 °C.

The display should be used within ambient temperature conditions below 40 °C.

3 The internal temperature has risen abnormally due to

blocked cooling vents, overheating of internal electronic

parts, or other factors. If the power is automatically turned off for a reason other than the above reasons, there could be a malfunction. In this case, unplug the power cord from the power outlet and request repair from your nearest sales outlet.

• The Plasma Display panel of this unit is very bright and viewing it a close distance will cause eye strain. We recommend that you view the screen from a suitable distance (3 m to 6 m).

• In order to protect the panel and internal circuitry, this display is provided with a cooling fan designed to turn on/off and change speed automatically in accordance with ambient temperature conditions (the fan sound will change in accordance with its speed). The display should be used within ambient temperature conditions below 40 °C.

STANDBY/ON indicator

During operation of the [POWER MGT.] function, this indicator will flash green at intervals of about 1 second. This indicator lights steadily (green) under nomal operating conditions. However, depending on the settings performed by the installation technician, the green indicator may not light even when power is turned on. If the green light displays a flashing pattern other than the above, an error message is indicated. Consult any onscreen messages and check ambient conditions (temperature, etc.) and respond accordingly. If the problem persists, disconnect the power plug and consult your dealer or a service center. Other than this, if the power turns off by itself, or refuses to turn on, or if this indicator conditions flashing red, a malfunction may be indicated. Immediately disconnect the power plug and consult your dealer or a service center.

Pour éviter tout risque d’incendie, le cordon d’alimentation sera débranché au niveau de la prise secteur si vous prévoyez une période prolongée de non utilisation (par exemple avant un départ en vacances).

luminance.

PDP-42MXE20 :

Produisant des images plus claires et nettes dont le contraste est élevé, le nouvel écran à plasma large et de haute précision (1024x768 / 16:9) surpasse les écrans antérieurs à haute luminance.

Interface à connecteur d’extension ES, rehaussant le potentiel

L’écran est muni d’une interface à connecteur d’extension ES incorporé, permettant l’insertion de cartes pour le branchement de périphériques externes, ce qui accroît son potentiel d’extension.

¶ Prend en compte une large gamme de signaux

d’ordinateur et de signaux vidéo (analogiques/ numériques)

L’écran supporte l’affichage non compressé de signaux allant de 640x400 et 640x480 (VGA) à 1024x768 (XGA), ainsi que l’affichage compressé de signaux de 1280x1024 (SXGA), 1400x1050 (SXGA+), et 1600x1200 (UXGA). De plus, les réglages de rapport largeur / hauteur et de taille d’écran supportés comprennent [POINT PAR POINT], [4:3] et [PLEIN ÉCRAN] (*1). * Les signaux pris en compte sont différents à INPUT1 et à

INPUT2.

*1 L’aspect du rapport largeur / hauteur et de la taille d’écran

varie selon le signal d’entrée.

¶ Configuration d’installation plus libre

– Possibilités élargies d’installation par un solide design plus mince et plus léger –

PDP-60MXE20 :

Bien qu’il fournisse une image de 60 pouces, cet écran n’a que 122 mm d’épaisseur et il pèse seulement 62,0 kg.

PDP-50MXE20/PDP-50MXE20-S :

Bien qu’il fournisse une image de 50 pouces, cet écran n’a que 99 mm d’épaisseur et il pèse seulement 35,5 kg.

PDP-42MXE20 :

Bien qu’il fournisse une image de 42 pouces, cet écran n’a que 98 mm d’épaisseur et il pèse seulement 30,5 kg. Et sa conception dissipant efficacement la chaleur améliore les conditions de fonctionnement. Associé à une construction solide, le design mince et léger élargit considérablement l’éventail des emplacements et des modes d’installation.

¶ Haute fiabilité pour des applications commerciales

Cet écran est très fiable et particulièrement approprié pour des applications commerciales. Il permet notamment de supprimer la luminance de crête en fonction du programme transmis et il change la vitesse de son ventilateur en accord avec les fluctuations de l’environnement de travail. Ces fonctions assurent une sécurité et une endurance élevées lors d’utilisations commerciales.

¶ Commodité accrue

La commodité est renforcée par l’inclusion de fonctions qui rendent l’écran encore plus compatible avec votre ordinateur. Citons la fonction AUTO SET UP [PARAMÉTRAGE AUTO.] de réglage simplifié pour les branchements sur l’ordinateur et la fonction POINT ZOOM (agrandissement partiel de l’image), permettant d’afficher les détails précis d’une image sur l’écran.

¶ Design économe en énergie

L’écran dispose de diverses fonctions destinées à économiser l’énergie, notamment une fonction de réglage automatique de la luminosité par capteur de la lumière ambiante.
