For 240Volt applications use only UL Listed Detachablepower supply cord with NEMA configuration6015P type (tandem blades) plug cap.IC Compliance NoticeThis Class A digital apparatus meets allrequirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations of ICES-003.Notice de Conformité ICCet appareil numérique de classe A respectetoutes les exigences du Règlement ICES-003 surles équipements produisant des interférences auCanada.European NoticeProducts with the CE Marking comply with boththe EMC Directive (89/336/EEC), (92/31/EEC),(93/68/EEC) and the Low Voltage Directive(73/23/EEC) issued by the Commission of theEuropean Community. Compliance with thesedirectives implies conformity to the followingEuropean Norms:• EN55022 : 1998 Class B• EN55024 : 1998• EN61000 - 3 - 2 : 1995• EN61000 - 3 - 3 : 1995• EN60950 (LEC60950) - Product Safety.5• Protect the power cord. Power supply cords should be routed so that they won’t be walked on or pinchedby objects placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at plugs, conveniencereceptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.• Unplug the PDP Monitor from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system during alightning storm or when left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will prevent damage tothe unit due to lightning and power-line surges.• Avoid overhead power lines. An outside antenna system should not be placed in the vicinity of overheadpower lines or other electric light or power circuits or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits.When installing an outside antenna system, be extremely careful to keep from touching the power linesor circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.• Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.• Do not insert anything through the openings in the unit, where they can touch dangerous voltage pointsor damage parts. Never spill liquid of any kind on the PDP Monitor.• Ground outdoor antennas. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV system with PDP Monitor, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection againstvoltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPANo.70-1984, provides information about proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure,grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location ofantenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the groundingelectrode.• Do not attempt to service the PDP Monitor yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the followingconditions:- when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged- if liquid has been spilled on the unit or if objects have fallen into the unit- if the PDP Monitor has been exposed to rain or water- if the PDP Monitor does not operate normally by following the operating instructions- if the PDP Monitor has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged- when the PDP Monitor exhibits a distinct change in performance• If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operatinginstructions. Adjusting other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by aqualified technician to restore the PDP Monitor to normal.• When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified bythe manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorizedsubstitutions may result in additional damage to the unit.• Upon completion of any service or repairs to this PDP Monitor, ask the service technician to performsafety checks to determine that the PDP Monitor is in a safe operating condition.This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.4FCC InformationSdi42-1.qxd 2001.11.29 10:8 AM Page 4

Monitor) on theplasma monitor panel for more than 2 hours as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention isalso known as “screen burn”. To avoid such image retention, refer to page 37 of this manual to reduce thedegree of brightness and contrast of this screen when displaying a still image.Cell Defects The Plasma monitor displays images using a group of minute pixels. Therefore, if 99.9% of the pixelsindicate normal conditions, the monitor is acceptable and approved. You don't need to be concernedabout the light emitted from part of the pixels or any pixels that are kept lit as your panel has beenapproved. WarrantyWarranty Period: One year starting from the purchase of your main system. Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.6Table of ContentsSdi42-1.qxd 2001.11.19 4:18 PM Page 6

2120How to Set up Your PC Software (Windows only)The Windows display-settings for a typical computer are shown below. But the actual screens on yourPC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your particularvideo card. But even if your actual screens look different, the same, basic set-up information will applyin almost all cases. (If not, contact your computer manufacturer.)On the windows screen, select in the followingsequence : Start ➝ Settings ➝ Control Panel.Select the “Settings” tab in the display dialog-box.The two key variables that apply the PDP-PCinterface are “resolution” and “colors.” Thecorrect settings for these two variables are:• Size (sometimes called “resolution”): 640 x 480 pixels.• Color: “24-bit” color (might also be expressedas “16 million colors”)Shown at left is a typicalscreen for “Display” dialog box. If a vertical-frequency option exists on yourdisplay settings dialog box, the correct value is“60” or “60 Hz.” Otherwise, just click “OK” andexit the dialog box.Continued...When the control panel screen appears, click on“Display” and a display dialog-box will appear.Notes: Both screen position and size will vary, depending on the type of PC monitor and its resolution. The tablebelow shows all of the display modes that are supported:• The interlace mode is not supported.• The PDP operates abnormally if a non-standard video format is selected.Notes:• When this PDP is used as a PC display, 24-bit color is supported (over 16 million colors).• Your PC display screen might appear different.Depending on the manufacturer (and depending on your particular version of Windows). Check your PC instruction book for information about connecting your PC to a PDP.• If a vertical and horizontal frequency-select mode exists, select 60Hz (vertical) and 31.5kHZ (horizontal).• In some cases, abnormal signals (such as stripes) might appear on the screen when the PC power is turnedoff (or if the PC is disconnected).
