• Specifications and design subject to modification without notice. • This equipment Is sold on the condition It will be Installed by a competent professional engineer with sufficient training and skill to carry out Its proper Installation. Be sure to entrust the Installation and set-up of this machine
only to a competent professional or retail service engineer. Pioneer cannot accept liability for damage due to inappropriate installation location or improper handling, assembly, installation, set-up, operation or retrofitting. • Plasma Display Systems display images consisting of hundreds of
thousands of minute pixels (light emitting cells), and there is a possibility of inactive, flashing or continually illuminated pixels. • Plasma Display Systems emit slight amounts of IR (Infrared) Emission through luminous discharge technology. IR Emission is not harmful to living organisms,
but may interfere with the operation of remote controls for other equipment or cause static in equipment using IR signals (such as cordless headphones, cordless microphones, and motion detectors) • Image retention, known as burn-in if permanent, can occur in all phosphor-based display
systems (including CRT television systems-both direct view and projection-as well as plasma display systems). Displaying the same still images for long periods should be avoided as image retention or burn-in may occur. Recommended guidelines are as follows: • Do not display static
images for long periods (such as still images, fixed images from PC or TV game equipment, and/or fixed images such as time of day indicator or channel logo display). • Do not display content in the 4:3 aspect ratio (black or gray bars on left and right side of content) or letter-box content
(black bars above and below of content) for extended periods of time, or use either of these viewing modes repeatedly within a short period of time. This Plasma Display System is equipped with multiple wide-screen viewing modes; use one of these screen modes to fill Ihe entire screen
with content. • Displaying dark images after displaying still images for a period of time may cause image retention. In most cases, the image retention can be corrected by displaying bright images for a similar period of time. If you display still images on your Plasma Display System for
long periods of time, image retention may be irreparable. • Plasma Display Systems may have a negative effect on sound or images coming from AM radios, PCs or video-related products. • Plasma Display Systems have interior glass panels; be sure to secure it from damage from impact.

• While In use. Plasma Display Systems may generate some functional sounds, for example: fan motor noise, and electrical circuit humming/glass panel buzzing. • PIONEER, PUREVISION, and the Pioneer and PureVIslon logos are registered trademarks of Pioneer Corporation.

Not all displays are built the same.

Look Deeper.

Advanced image processing increases efficiency while
producing dynamic, vibrant content. Using breakthrough
technologies. Pioneer provides unprecedented brightness
and greatly improved dark-area contrast.

Dynamic Imagery

Exclusive Panel Technologies

Achieves the dual goals of higher brightness and
greater contrast.

PDP image quality takes another impressive step forward with Pioneer's
new panel technologies. In addition to our exclusive Deep Encased Cell
Structure, it uses another breakthrough technology called Crystal Emissive
Layer to boost luminous efficiency beyond any previous model. The result
is a first-of-its-kind level of high brightness and unprecedented dark-area
contrast. Blacks are blacker, while light areas maintain their true brightness
values. Bright-area contrast is also significantly higher, meaning that
the PDP-507CMX will provide eye-catching imagery, even in bright places
such as shopping malls, event venues and showrooms.

Another new technology developed for the PDP-507CMX,
the New First-Surface Pure Color Filter is an industrial grade

50-Inch WXGA Professional Plasma Display

PDP-507CMX

New Pure Drive Pro

Superb picture quality designed
for professional applications.

The best possible picture quality and most efficient
PDP available is realized by combining color
management, scaling, GUI and other image
processing technologies on a single chip developed
exclusively for Pioneer's professional plasma
displays. Scaling performance, a vital factor for
professional plasma displays, has been enhanced
to ensure that even high-resolution signals are
reproduced with minimal data loss. In addition,
ACE IV technology enables the panel to accurately
reproduce the full-range grayscale for each color.
The panel instantly identifies the type of image
being shown (fast-vs. slow-motion scenes, dark vs.
light scenes) and intuitively optimizes the distribution
of color gradation.

Six Pro Use display modes allow image adjustment for professional applications

•Under-Scan: Displays 100% of the image, including the outer edges that are normally cut off.

•Color-Off: Removes color information for optimum display of black and white signals.

•Still Image Processing: Displays still images accurately by varying movement detection processing.

•Pure Image: Displays images as close as possible to the original signal with no image processing.

• High Contrast: Uses special dynamic range expansion to make images more vivid.

• Blue Only: Used in broadcast and post production for display calibration.

New ACE IV (Advanced Continuous Emission IV)

Greatly improved reproduction in the low
brightness range.

Powerful Functionality

Dual Screen Function

standard Dual Screen Mode

Remote and RS-232 control operation permits the use of Picture-in-Picture
(P-in-P) and Side-by-Side modes. With P-in-P, the position of the sub-image
can be shifted among four locations, or Side-by-Side images can be switched
between the left and right positions. Audio can also be independently switched.

P-in-P Display Variations

The P-in-P mode permits a number of display variations. There are multiple
sizes of P-in-P sub-images which can be set in addition to the transparency of
the sub-image from 0 to 80%.

P-in-P Fade In/Out

This function allows an optional fade in/out transition of the sub-picture.

Upgraded Side-by-Side Mode

Switch easily between Side-by-Side and P-out-P modes. It is also possible to select
three horizontal aspect ratios for dual-image, full-screen display.

Sub-Image Detection

During P-in-P display, if the sub-image input signal is lost, the display will
automatically switch to a full-screen image. P-in-P is automatically restored
when the sub-image signal returns.

Banner Mode

Easily display titles / captions prepared in PowerPoint® or other presentation
software. There are ten positions for the titles / captions: eight horizontal
settings and two portrait modes. The transparency of the on-screen titles can
also be varied. * PowerPoint is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation.

Unlimited Expandability to Meet Present and
Future Needs - ES* Card Slot Interface •Expansion Solutions

The PDP-507CMX is designed for virtually any type of
application with the integration of two ES Card Slot

interfaces, one for communication and one for enhanced
data. It comes supplied with a removable communication
card that includes RS-232C and combination I/O interfaces.
The second slot may optionally be used to enable
capabilities via a wide range of analog or digital signals,
with additional control. This means that one PDP-507CMX
can be used for multiple tasks, including various
applications that other PDFs can't handle. Extensive
flexibility is available right out of the box, and stays ready
for future needs. Pioneer's "Expansion Solutions" are
one more reason why the PDP-507CMX should be your
first choice for a professional plasma display.

Energy Efficiency

Low Power Consumption and Five Energy Saver Modes

The PDP-507CMX achieves the industry's lowest power consumption of 340 W
peak thanks to the high, light emission efficiency of Pioneer's latest exclusive
panel technologies. Five energy saver modes contribute to further lowering power
consumption: Power Save, Intermediate, Linear Brightness (which decreases

the peak intensity of high-brightness images). Auto Brightness Control (which
automatically adjusts panel brightness depending upon room lighting), and

Video Mute (which temporarily turns off the displayed image).
