• Universal Remote Control CRK76TUL1/CRK76TQL1
New ergonomic design and color-coded buttons provide complete TV operation plus control of the primary functions of virtually every brand of remote-controllable VCR, satellite system, and cable box. Also controls most functions of RCA DVD players. Frequently-used buttons illuminate for easier nighttime use.
• Stereo Amplifier
Built-in amplifier enhances stereo performance and can power optional left/right or surround speakers.
• Understanding Plasma
RCA Plasma is equipped with the ultimate in technology. The use of plasma, a mixture of rare gases that emulate the energy of the sun, makes it possible to achieve an image that is infinite in surface and quality.
Trapped between two glass plates and electronically activated, the plasma produces a controlled energy that is instantaneously transformed into color images by red, green and blue phosphors. The technique is all the more astonishing when you consider that the layer of gas is only 100 microns thick—one-tenth of a millimeter!
RCA combines this technology with the unique Capsulated Color Filter
1
process: a grid of colored micro-filters positioned on the screen. The fidelity of the colors is so high, they are virtually identical to the colors in nature. In fact, they are indistinguishable.
• 3D Y/C Digital Frame Comb Filter
The ultimate in color separation—this three­dimensional filter evaluates both current and future video information, eliminating dot and edge crawl while providing for better transitions between scene changes—resulting in a dramatically enhanced picture.
• CinemaScreen™PR42300
The monitor is a high-performance XGA-compatible 42" plasma monitor designed for corporate applications including conference room meeting support, boardroom presentations, video conferencing and dynamic signage in building lobbies and shared areas. The CinemaScreen™monitor includes SYNCROSCAN™conversion technology for sharp, stable images up to XGA resolution and realistic color reproduction.
• Capsulated Color Filter1Technology Provides Realistic Color
Capsulated Color Filter1(CCF) technology improves color response to provide the most realistic color rendering available in plasma monitors. CCF technology is a series of red, green and blue filters bonded within the panel’s front glass substrate. CCF optimizes the color spectrum of visible light emitted from the panel by attenuating unwanted spectral emissions associated with the ionization of gas within the individual pixels. CCF also incorporates a black matrix that helps the panel absorb external light, cuts down on reflections and improves the reproduction of black. The result is color that is more true to life, enhanced contrast and a screen image that is perceptibly superior to other plasma monitors.
• Professional Color Management Control
The CinemaScreen™monitor’s control system complements Capsulated Color Filter1technology by allowing simple and accurate adjustment of on-screen color temperature settings through the monitor’s on-screen user menus. Select one of three preset color temperatures or “Pro Mode.” Select PM to set a customized color temperature to suit your specific application requirements or personal preferences.
• SYNCROSCAN™Conversion Technology Delivers High-Resolution Image Quality
The SYNCROSCAN™system of the CinemaScreen
monitor automatically delivers high-resolution pixel mapping from sources up to XGA resolution. This high-performance system displays computer graphics with superior accuracy and stability. This results in a screen image with excellent clarity from the highest resolution sources.

Ventilation Requirements
The TV can be easily hung on a wall with the included mounting bracket.* The ultra-thin design allows big-screen entertainment in almost any room. The bracket is designed to allow necessary ventilation behind the TV.
If an enclosed mounting is desired (recessed into the wall), please allow
1.5" clearance on each side and 2" clearance on the top and bottom for proper ventilation.
*Bracket must be securely mounted to wall studs.
