CAUTION

• To prevent injury and material damage, thoroughly read this manual and all labels found on equipment before attempting to mount, install, move, or adjust the product.

• Do not install the unit outside or in open air. Doing so will lead to water seepage into the system, resulting in fire or electric shock.

• Be especially careful when working around parts of the system that have sharp edges.

• When performing installation work from a height, take suitable precautions to guard against falling. Set up a barrier around the work site to prevent accidentally-dropped objects from injuring persons standing or walking below.

• Keep all foreign objects out of the unit. Do not tamper with the unit, or fire or electric shock may result.

• Observe the following operating environmental limitations:

Temperature: 0 to 40°C Humidity: 20 to 80%

• Install the unit only in properly ventilated areas.

Features

Features and Functions of the PDP-501MX Plasma Display

• High-definition XGA wide panel

The Display uses a high-definition XGA wide panel, which provides 1280 x 768 resolution with more than 980.000 pixels. This resolution is more than 2.5 times higher than that of conventional panels, and enables multimedia information to be reproduced more vividly and accurately than ever before.

• Clear, high-quality image

Provides 8-bit RGB in 256 gradations/16.77 million colors. A new exclusive technology developed by Pioneer eliminates the pseudo-contour anomaly, that is typically observed in plasma displays.

• Unrivalled brightness

A brightness of 350 cd/m2 (white peak, for panel unit), which is the highest so far for XGA panels, has been achieved by maximizing light-emitting efficiency.

• Flat, lightweight design

The Pioneer plasma display monitor is also unrivalled in compactness: the 50-inch screen is only 98 mm in depth, and weighs only 43.0 kg. It can therefore be mounted at locations where conventional displays are difficult to install.

• Supports a variety of signals from computers

Full specification PC are supported in video modes from VGA (640 x 480 resolution) to XGA (1024 x 762 resolution). The SXGA (1280 x 1024 resolution) mode also accommodates PC signals, although a summary replay approach is employed in this mode. The use of a dedicated video card also allowed access to a display of 1280 x 768 resolution, as well. This monitor also supports HDTV broadcasts*. Note: * To display HDTV images on this monitor, an HDTV decoder, additionally.

• Optimized for industrial/public-address use

• An RS-232C interface is provided for control from the exterior

• The combination terminal enables a single PC to control multiple monitor systems

• The integrator mode enables more precise adjustments than ever before

• A color temperature (white balance) switching function is provided for retakes, and a key-lock feature prevents accidental or unauthorized use of the monitor

• Multiple input and output terminals (four inputs and eight outputs) are provided

Installation Site Requirements

3.1 Installation Site Requirements

If the site requires modifications or special preparations for installation of the plasma display or its mounting hardware, obtain permission in advance from the building owner or building authorities. To ensure installation safety, it is also important to determine the strength of the installation site with the help of the original building contractor.

Safety Precautions

1) Structure of the installation site

Make sure you thoroughly understand the structure of the installation site before determining the most suitable installation method. Buildings vary in structure and materials, and the appropriate mounting hardware will differ accordingly. When drilling into walls, always remain aware of internal electrical wiring and pipes.

2) Weight capacity of the installation site

Select a location with a weight capacity sufficient to support the total weight of the display and mounting hardware.

3) Horizontal and flat surfaces

Select a flat and surface place for instruction and attach mounting hardware parallel to the pace of installation. Install the unit so that the load is evenly applied to the ceiling or wall, as well as on mounting components such as hang bolts.

4) Sufficient work space

Select a location with sufficient space for installation work. The installation work should be conducted by more than two persons.

5) Nearby equipment

Air conditioning ducts or lamps located near the installation site may be subject to dust, extreme temperatures, humidity, and condensation during installation. Take suitable measures to protect them.

6) Safe locations

Do not install the unit where it may be easily reached or leaned against. Avoid locations subject to high vibration or severe impacts.

7) Lighting conditions

• Consider existing lighting and sunlight angles when creating the installation layout. Extremely bright lighting can reduce the visibility and quality of the display image.

• In extremely bright surroundings, adjusting screen intensity may not result in perceptibly brighter images. Keep in mind that extreme intensity settings can reduce system service life.

8) Installation partially outdoors

The unit is designed for indoor use and is not suited for open-air use. Installation at locations even just partially exposed to the elements may lead to malfunctions or breakdown caused by any of the following:

• Water and dust

• Change in temperature and humidity

• Salt-bearing wind

Direct sunlight upon the display degrades image quality. In installing the display, avoid sites exposed to direct sunlight.

Installation Site Requirements

9) Temperature and humidity conditions

• The installation site should meet the following conditions:

• Operating temperatures: 0 to 40 °C (largely depending on installation conditions)

• Operating humidity: 20 to 80%

• Storage temperature: –10 to +45 °C

• Storage humidity: 20 to 90%

• Operating atmospheric pressure: 0.9 to 1.1 atm

• Storage atmospheric pressure: 0.6 to 1.5 atm

• We recommend against 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:

• Never install the unit in locations that fail to meet the conditions specified above

• Make sure the unit is grounded

• Prevent condensation

• Do not allow water or liquids to enter the unit

10) Beware of condensation

One of the chief problem sources during winter is condensation. Rapid temperature fluctuations can deposit airborne water vapor inside the unit or on the screen, degrading performance. If condensation occurs, turn the unit off and leave it off for one hour or so. It is also good practice to increase room temperature gradually.

11) Power requirements

• This unit functions properly when powered at ±10% of its rated voltage. High impedance characteristics of lines at the installation site may distort the voltage output wave form, effectively reducing voltage. If any of the following occurs, inspect the main wiring.

• Significant voltage drop between the switchboard and the plasma display

• Significant changes in voltage when switching unit power on or off

• When calculating heat quantity, allow for 600 VA of consumption per unit

• The in-rush current upon powering up will be approximately 25 A

12) Effectire remote-control distance

This display emits weak infrared radiation. If other products controlled with infrared remote controls are placed nearby, remote control function may be affected. In such cases, move them away from the display.

Depending on installation conditions, the range of the unit’s own remote control may be reduced by infrared emitted by the screen.

The screen’s infrared intensity will vary, depending on the image displayed.

Installation Conditions

3.2 Installation Conditions

3.2.1 Heat dissipation

This unit has openings for effective ventilation at locations marked by arrows in the illustration below. To allow proper dissipation of heat from the unit, avoid blocking or covering any of these openings.

Air flow through the openings: All four fans exhaust hot air from the unit. All openings not assisted by fans serve as air inlets. If the unit is hung from or embedded into a wall, special operating temperature limits and other limitations may apply. Refer to 3.4 Special Installation.

Installation Conditions

3.2.2 Calculating heat quantity

For power consumption, allow for 600 VA ( 600 W) 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] x 0.86 = [kcal/h] Heat generated per display: 600 W x 0.86 = 516 kcal/h

2 Conversion to British Thermal Units (BTU)

[W] x 3.41 = [BTU/h] Heat generated per unit: 600 W x 3.41 = 2046 BTU/h

3.2.3 Product mounting holes

We recommend using mounting hardware available from Pioneer. If you use other mounting hardware, attach them to the unit using the M8-bolt holes provided in the unit. Remove the hole rivets, depending on the particular mounting hardware used. Tighten bolts with a torque between 50 and 80 kg.cm. Applying a torque beyond these limits may lead to nut failure.

• Locations of useble mount holes are shown below. (Caps, or plugs, can be removed by turning them with a coin or another device.)

Installation Conditions

3.2.4 Mounting surface warping

The display section incorporates glass. Before mounting the product, perform the following to confirm that the display is free of warps exceeding 1 mm. 1 Referring to the illustration below, diagonally extend string of maximum 0.1-mm diameter through the bolt mount

openings. Strings thus arranged should be completely free of slack.

2 Measure the clearance (L) between the strings at their point of intersection. Distortion is expressed by: Distortion =

L x 2.

3 If L is found to be 0, pass the strings through the other bolt mount openings and repeat the measurements. Any

value of L greater than 0 indicates the presence of distortion. If the measured values in both cases is 0, the distortion is negligible.

2) Unpacking procedures

1 Remove the packing bands. 2 Slowly lift and remove the upper carton [“top portion of the packaging”]. 3 Lift and remove the reinforcement packaging. (Upper protective pad C is held in place by adhesive tape) 4 Remove the L and R upper cartons. 5 Remove the side, front, and rear cartons.

(At this stage, the product is supported by packing materials)

6 Remove the operating manual and accessories, which are secured to the lower carton by adhesive tape. 7 Remove the unit. (This should be performed by more than two persons)

3) Transportation of the unpacked unit If it needs to be moved, the unit should be lifted by more than two persons.

• Avoid moving the unit by dragging it on the floor.

• Move the unit slowly, taking care to prevent scraping or striking the delicate front protective panel.

• Remove the protective film only after all work and preparations for the installation site, including clean-up

following unpacking, are complete.

3.3.3 Temporary installation using packing materials

The lower carton and pads may be used as a temporary stand for the unit. Connections to and from the unit can be made after the side, rear, and front cartons are removed. At this point, the power switch and remote control may also be operated, but this installation should be regarded as temporary. Always secure the unit to the mounting hardware after pre-installation wiring and adjustments are complete. Never attempt to move the unit while supported only by cartons.

Cutout providing access to the power switch

3.3.4 Re-packing

If the unit needs to be re-packed, observe the following guidelines:

• Pack by performing the steps described in 3.3.2 Unpacking in reverse order. The mirro mat must be positioned so that the shiny film surface faces outward and its soft surface faces inward (toward the unit).

• Restore all accessories to their original locations. Secure with adhesive tape to prevent damage during transportation.

• Check that no carton spacer is dislodged. Rearrange dislodged carton spacers so they are securely positioned between the unit and the lower pads, and secure with adhesive tape. This guards against instability during packaging or transportation.

Installation Procedures

3.3.5. Wiring

1) Connecting the power cable

• Refer to the section on Power Cord Connection on page 26 of the operating manual.

• For power source specifications, refer to 3.1 Installation Conditions, paragraph 11.

2) Connecting signal cables (1)Connection to PCs

• Refer to the section with this heading in the operating manual, on pages 21 to 22.

(2)Connection to video units

• Refer to the section with this heading in the operating manual, on pages 23 to 25.

(3)Important Notes

• Use coaxial cables. As a rough guide, use 3C-2V cables for lengths up to 15 meters and 5C-2V cables for lengths up to 30 meters. Use thicker cables for computer signals, since these signals are more likely to degrade: 5C-2V cables, for example, for 15-meter lengths. Generally, thicker cables will produce more reliable connections. 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 deliver slightly corrupted images.

3) Processing wires

• Be especially careful in selecting wiring lengths for permanent layouts. For temporary installations for occasional events, this isn’t quite so important.

• Arrange and secure cables so they will not be subject to direct load or physical force. For temporary installations, securing cables with string should be perfectly adequate. For permanent installations, secure by more reliable means.

4) Arranging and securing cables with speed clamps and bead bands

Fasten cables using the supplied speed clamps.

Remember that speed clamps are not

easily removed, once fastened.

Secure cables with the supplied bead bands.

• Cables may also be drawn around to the right, viewed from this side.

Standard mounting equipment features and characteristics

4.1 Standard mounting equipment features and characteristics

In addition to reliability and the vivid display resulting from its large screen area, brightness, and image quality, the plasma display (PDP-501MX/PDP-V501X) is thin and lightweight, enabling mounting at locations not possible for traditional displays. We considered various mount patterns and operating conditions during the design of the plasma display (PDP-501MX/ PDP-V501X). A wide range of standard mounting equipment is available for easy mounting.

• Table-top Stand: PDK-5001

This on-board support designed for the plasma display enables vertical use of the display.

• Plasma Display Ceiling-suspension Hardware (one-side type):PDK-5002

A simple rod-type mounting components, permitting display panning over a range of (45 degrees and up to 25-degree downward tilting from horizontal. Mount depth is less than 170 mm (in vertical position, without optional speaker). This hardware enables installation of the unit in a wide range of locations.

• Tiltable wall-suspended hardware: PDK-5006

Permits tilting of the display downward from horizontal by up to 25 degrees. Mount depth is less than 125 mm (in vertical position, without optional speaker). This hardware permits a wide range of viewing angles.

• Speaker system: PDP-S02-LR

This vertical twin-speaker system, with a newly developed elliptical unit 4.5 cm wide on top and bottom with a 2.5-cm dome cone tweeter in between, provides improved sound-field localization. Despite its compact 7.4-cm cabinet, the speaker system is capable of offering powerful dynamic sound reproduction. (Note that when the speaker is mounted to the main unit itself, the operation panel of the main unit is inaccessible.)

NOTE: If you start or stop the entire system by switching a breaker on or off, allow enough time for the last memory

function to perform by satisfying the timing requirements given above. Note that this practice causes count errors on the hour meter.

5.1.6 Aging

After switching on power to the unit, input signals to perform aging until the unit stabilizes. Use signals that are unlikely to cause the displayed images to be “burned” onto the screen: signals such as a 100% white signal or animations from LDs are recommended. This should take about thirty minutes. This ensures precision adjustments. NOTE: Display of still images over extended periods can lead to the above-mentioned “burning.”

Normal Operating Mode

5.2 Normal Operating Mode

5.2.1 About normal operating mode

Normal operating mode enables the following: 1 Input switching

• Pressing one of INPUT buttons, 1-4 —> Input switches over to the selected input.

• Pressing the INPUT button on the operating panel of the main unit —> This switches the input to the next input.

2 Screen-size switching

• Repeatedly pressing the SCREEN SIZE button on the remote changes screen size in the following sequence: At INPUT 1 or 2, or when reproducing video signals via INPUT 3 or 4

= FULL = ZOOM = CINEMA WIDE = NATURAL WIDE = 4:3 NORMAL =

When reproducing PC signals via INPUT 3 or 4

= ORIGINAL = 4:3 NORMAL = FULL = ZOOM =

NOTE: • During video playback, switching screen size to ZOOM or CINEMA WIDE permits scrolling the screen

up and down with the 5 and ∞ buttons (V-SCROLL function). The V-scroll function provides the following variable ranges:

±25 steps on ZOOM ±15 steps on CINEMA WIDE

See “5.1.3 List of supported input signals.”

• Displays with “(TYPE)” appended, such as FULL (TYPE), will sometimes appear, indicating a simplified reproduction.

• Check for possible copyright infringement before using the screen-size switching feature of this unit in restaurants, hotels, or other public venues, or for commercial purposes.

3) MP Mode On/Off

This accommodates video signal processing when reproducing PC signals. We advise setting MP MODE OFF for still images and ON for motion pictures.

<About MP Mode> For noninterlaced signals (such as those from PCs) and for animation found in game software, striped shadows may sometimes appear in the moving portion of the image. This phenomenon, known as pseudo-contour, results from the plasma display’s tone wedge characteristic. You can set MP mode ON to reduce pseudo-contour, but the tone wedge may become slightly blurred,depending on the signal. NOTE:MP mode has no effect on 1024 x 768, 87-Hz signals (interlaced), whether MP is ON or OFF.

6) Setting the Input Signal Format

INPUTS 3 and 4 support RGB and two component video signal types. INPUT 2 supports two component video signal types. Thus, you must make the appropriate settings for the particular component. This setting needs to be made separately for INPUTs 2, 3, and 4, as described below. Example: • To reproduce RGB signals = SIGNAL: RGB

• To reproduce HDIV signals = SIGNAL: COMPONENT 1 (Note 1)

• To reproduce DVD players = SIGNAL: COMPONENT 2 (Note 1)

Note 1: Or try selecting COMPONENT 1 or 2 to determine which provides the best possible natural picture color.

7) Setting the Clamp Position

Plugging in RGB (G ON SYNC) signals and a sync signal simultaneously may produce inappropriate intensity reproduction, with an over-bright screen or images with a greenish cast. If this occurs, set CLAMP to MODE 2. For most situations, leave CLAMP to MODE 1.

Clamp pulse (a timing pulse necessary for intensity reproduction) is generated in two ways, “a” and “b,” as shown in Figure 1.

(In CLAMP MODE 2)

Sync signals are monitored in CLAMP MODE 1, and the unit is automatically switched to generate a clamp pulse by method “a” shown in Figure 1 in the presence of sync signal, and by method “b” in the absence of a sync signal. But when a sync signal is fed simultaneously with G ON SYNC, the unit perceives a sync signal and generates a clamp pulse as shown in “a” in Figure 1. The generated clamp pulse is mistimed, making correct reproduction of intensity impossible. In this case, unplug the sync signal or set CLAMP to MODE 2. In CLAMP MODE 2, the clamp pulse is generated by method “b” in Figure 1, whether or not a sync signal is present, ensuring correct reproduction of intensity. NOTE: The figures above are for illustrative purposes only.

5.4.1 About the integrator mode

1) Enabling Integrator Mode

• You must first release the Integrator Mode Protect,which is engaged at the time of shipment. The Protect should be released only once to eudle initial adjustments to be made in the integrator mode immediately following delivery of the unit.

<How to release Protect> In Standby, switch on power to the unit by pressing these three buttons on the remote,

in the following order: DISPLAY button = MENU button = POWER button (This procedure should be complete within three seconds.)

This releases the Integrator Mode Protect and invokes Integrator mode. The Integrator Mode Protect release is stored in last memory. You do not need to repeat the procedure thereafter to enter the Integrator mode.

2) Entering the Integrator Mode

• Once the Integrator Mode Protect is released, place the unit in Integrator mode by doing the following:

<Procedure> In standby, switch on power to the unit using the remote or the operating panel of the main unit, as

follows: MENU button = POWER button (This procedure should be complete within three seconds.)

3) When Entering the Integrator Mode

• The picture quality and clock adjustments (refer to the operating manual) made in MENU mode, except for CLK PHS adjustment, are all set to standard positions (median values).

4) Data Adjusted in Integrator Mode

• Parameters for PICTURE, WHITE BALANCE, and SCREEN (refer to “5.4.3,” paragraphs 1) to 3) are stored in memory by input function and signal. Up to four signal modes may be stored when inputting PC signals. When adjusting five modes of input signals, the oldest adjustment data is erased from memory.

5) To Exit Integrator Mode

• Press the MENU button on the remote or on the operating panel of the main unit to restore the unit to Normal operating mode. It is also important to plug in signals previously.

6) Notes (1)The input can’t be switched while in the Integrator mode. Make sure you have switched to the appropriate input

before entering the Integrator mode. It is also important to plug in signals previously.

(2) The Integrator mode is automatically disabled:

• When switching over to another input signal mode (i.e., to another signal frequency).

• When no operation occurs for a period of approximately three minutes

• When you press the KEY LOCK/UNLOCK button on the operating panel of the main unit

(3)For adjustments and settings, feed the video signals you actually use in the production run.
