Colored dots on the screen
A PDP (Plasma Display Panel), depending on its size, contains from 0.9 to 2.2 million individual
cells. Even with advanced technology it is inevitable that a few defective cells may be found in
the PDP. These defective cells may be visible as colored dots. We continually strive to minimize
the number of defective cells but the existence of a few such defects will not be considered as
sufficient reason for exchange or refund.
Earth wire should be connected.
- If the earth wire is not connected, there is possible a danger of electric shock caused by the
current leakage.
-If grounding methods are not possible, a separate circuit breaker should be employed and
installed by a qualified electrician.
-Do not connect ground to telephone wires, lightning rods or gas pipe.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
Power supply cord/appliance coupler is used as the main disconnect device, and as
such shall be easily accessible after installation.

Monitor Installation
Tip
;
;
;
- It is recommended that this product only be used at an altitude of less than 6562 feet
(2000m) to get the best quality picture and sound.
- This plasma display is designed to be mounted horizontally (wide viewing).
- Your P42W22, P42W22B models (Monitor) can be installed on a wall as shown below,
or on a desktop pedestal as shown on the next page. Wall mount and stands are
optional, and are not supplied with the monitor.

(R) AUDIO (L) VIDEO
- As shown below, when connecting the Monitor to a VCR, match the colors of AV input
jacks on the Monitor with the output jacks on the VCR: Video = yellow, Audio (Left) =
white, Audio (Right) = red.
- If you have a mono VCR, connect the audio cable from the VCR to the AUDIO (L/MONO)
input on the Plasma Monitor.
- If you connect an S-VIDEO VCR to the S-VIDEO input, the picture quality is improved,
compared to connecting a regular VCR to the Video input.
- Avoid having a fixed image remain on the screen for a long period of time. A frozen still
picture from a VCR (or if a CH label is displayed) displayed on the screen for prolonged
periods will result in an image ghost remaining even when you change the image. Avoid
prolonged display of a still image.

Monitor Overview
How to connect external control equipment
• Connect the serial port of the control device to the RS-232C jack on the Monitor back panel.
• RS-232C connection cables are not supplied with the Monitor.
• The Monitor remote control and front panel controls (except main power) will not be function-
al if the Monitor is controlled by a PC computer or other external device.

Use a null modem cable.
*
Wire the 7-Wire cable so that each pair of data lines cross between the two devices. These data line pairs
are RXD (Receive data) and TXD (Transmit data), DTR (DTE side ready) and DSR (DCE side ready), and
RTS (Ready to send) and CTS (Clear to send).
When using the 3-Wire cable connected to RXD, TXD and GND; Pin No. 4 (DTR) and Pin No. 6 (DSR) must
be connected to the monitor. (The cable must be disconnected from the Monitor to be able to use the remote
control and Monitor front panel controls.)
With the RS-232 input connected, the Monitor cannot be controlled by both an external control device and
*
the remote control at the same time. The Monitor can only be controlled by either the remote control or the
external control device.
Pin No.4 and Pin

Maintenance
- Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of
time you will have your new Monitor. Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power
cord before you begin any cleaning.
Safety instructions
Monitor Overview
Cleaning the screen
1.Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a
soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or
dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then
use it to wipe the screen.
2.Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry
before you turn on your Monitor.
Cleaning the cabinet
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.
