TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARDS. DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. ALSO DO NOT USE THIS UNIT'S POLARIZED PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION CORD RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLETS, UNLESS THE PRONGS CAN BE FULLY INSERTED. REFRAIN FROM OPENING THE CABINET AS THERE ARE HIGH-VOLTAGE COMPONENTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

WARNING

Warnings and Safety Precaution

The NEC plasma monitor is designed and manufactured to provide long, trouble-free service. No maintenance other than cleaning is required. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the panel. Never use solvents such as alcohol or thinner to clean the panel surface. The plasma display panel consists of fine picture elements (cells). Although NEC produces the plasma display panels with more than 99.99 percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.

For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, read carefully and observe the following instructions.

To avoid shock and fire hazards:

  1. Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal heat build-up. Do not cover rear vents or install in a closed cabinet or shelves.
    The unit is equipped with cooling fans. If you install the unit in an enclosure, be sure there is adequate space at the top of the unit to allow hot air to rise and escape.
    If the monitor becomes too hot, the overheat protector will be activated and the monitor will be turned off. If this happens, turn off the power to the monitor and unplug the power cord. If the room where the monitor is installed is particularly hot, move the monitor to a cooler location, and wait for the monitor to cool for 60 minutes. If the problem persists, contact your NEC dealer for service.
  2. Do not use the power cord polarized plug with extension cords or outlets unless the prongs can be completely inserted.
  3. Do not expose unit to water or moisture.
  4. Avoid damage to the power cord, and do not attempt to modify the power cord.
  5. Unplug unit during electrical storms or if unit will not be used over a long period.
  6. Do not open the cabinet which has potentially dangerous high voltage components inside. If the unit is damaged in this way the warranty will be void. Moreover, there is a serious risk of electric shock.
  7. Do not attempt to service or repair the unit. NEC is not liable for any bodily harm or damage caused if unqualified persons

Important Information

NEC PlasmaSync 50VP2 - NOTE: - 1

NEC PlasmaSync 50VP2 - NOTE: - 2

To avoid damage and prolong operating life:

  1. Use only with 120V 50/60Hz AC power supply. Continued operation at line voltages greater than 120 Volts AC will shorten the life of the unit, and might even cause a fire hazard.
  2. Handle the unit carefully when installing it and do not drop.
  3. Set the unit away from heat, excessive dust, and direct sunlight.
  4. Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small metal objects. In case of accident, unplug the unit and have it serviced by an authorized NEC Service Center.
  5. Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes flaws on the surface of the screen.
  6. For correct installation and mounting it is strongly recommended to use a trained, authorized NEC dealer.
  7. As is the case with any phosnorhaced display like a CRT

Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor burn-in

Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas plasma displays, Plasma monitors can be susceptible to phosphor burn under certain circumstances. Certain operating conditions, such as the continuous display of a static image over a prolonged period of time, can result in phosphor burn if proper precautions are not taken. To protect your investment in this NEC plasma monitor, please adhere to the following guidelines and recommendations for minimizing the occurrence of image burn:

* Always enable and use your computer's screen saver function during use with a computer input source.

* Display a moving image whenever possible.

* Always power down the monitor when you are finished using it.

NEC has built-in several operating modes in your PlasmaSync PD Series monitor to help you reduce the likelihood of phosphor burn. These are called the AccuShield Phosphor Protection System. If the Plasmasync monitor is in long-term use or continuous operation, use the functions available in AccuShield to reduce the likelihood of perceptible phosphor burn or to diminish its perceptible effects if it occurs. See pages E-34, 42 and 43 for instructions on how to use the Orbiter, Low Brightness and Inverse RGB modes of AccuShield.

* Lower the Brightness and Contrast levels as much as possible without impairing image readability.
* Display an image with many colors and color gradations (ie. photographic or photo-realistic images).
* Create image content with minimal contrast between light and dark areas. For example white characters on black backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel colors whenever possible.
* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct, sharply defined borders between colors.

Contact NEC Technologies at 1-800-836-0655 for other recommended procedures that will best suit your particular application needs.

Important

■ Precautions in Normal Mode

There are marked differences in brightness between the display portions and non-display portions (where there is no image) in [NORMAL] mode which result in image burn-in due to the strong contrast. In view of this, the following settings are strongly recommended.

Note that image burn-in will still occur, though somewhat later, even after making these settings and that burn-in cannot be suppressed. The monitor should be used in [FULL] mode as much as possible.

  1. Perform gray level settings to narrow the differences in brightness between display and non-display portions of the image. (See P.E-43)

  2. Weaken the image adjustment contrast and brightness. (See P.E-25)

  3. Perform the Long Life settings. (P.E-42)

Please note that using this monitor for the purpose of commercial gain or the attraction of public attention in a venue such as a coffee shop or hotel and employing compression or expansion of the screen image with a wide screen setting (of FULL, ZOOM, or STADIUM) raises concern about the infringement of copyright rights which are protected by copyright law.

■ Screen Size and the Original Image

This monitor is equipped with a wide variety of wide screen settings. Selection of a screen size that differs with the image aspect ratio (i.e., the ratio of the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the screen) of the video tape or other software will produce differences in appearance with respect to the original image. Please keep this point in mind when selecting the screen size.

Horizontal/Vertical Position Adjustments (H-POSITION and V-POSITION)

Horizontal and vertical position adjustments are available in 2 types. "Direct adjustment" makes adjustments simply by pressing the buttons of the remote control and "Menu control adjustments" are made via menu display.

Direct Adjustment

This is a mode to output DVD video information in a progressive signal format.

CINEMA MODE

- [OM]

Normally set to [ON]. This setting detects whether a DVD source was based on film or video. When it was based on film, it will be progressively displayed in the appropriate method.

OFF

This setting is used for video source on DVD, converting into the progressive output.

Important

Gray Level Settings

The gray level can be set to suit the level of gray brightness desired by the user.

There are marked differences in brightness between the display portions and non-display portions (where there is no image) in [NORMAL] mode which result in image burn-in due to strong contrast. In view of this, the following settings are strongly recommended.

Note that image burn-in will still occur, though somewhat later, even after making these settings and that burn-in cannot be suppressed. The monitor should be used in [FULL] mode as much as possible.

  1. Perform gray level settings to narrow the differences in brightness between display and non-display portions of the image.

  2. Weaken the image adjustment contrast and brightness. (See P.E-25)

  3. Perform the Long Life settings. (P.E-42)

Command 1

Together with Command 2, this is a number that distinguishes the various commands.

For ACK, when bit 2 and bit 3 are both "1", reception of a supported command or data is indicated. When bit 2 is "0", reception of an unsupported command or data is indicated.

Bit 0 and bit 1 should be set as described below.

Check Sum (CKS), Error Processing, and ACK

1) Checks that received data incorporates both the following checksum and RS-232C (odd) parity.

The checksum comprises the following aspects of one transmitted or received frame: Command 1, Unit 1 and 2, Command 2, data length, and the lower order 8 bits of the total data.

Check Sum Example

    I["Data"] --> J["Check Sum"]
    K["Total"] --> L["130H"]
    L --> M["Output"]

2) Error Processing

(1) When the communications interval is 4 ms or greater, the arrival of a subsequent Command 1 will be recognized. If meaningful data cannot be discerned at this time, that data will not be recognized.

(2) When the receive data error, checksum error, and the receive data could not all be taken in, ACK is not returned.

3) Returning an ACK

When command processing exceeds 0.5 seconds following command reception, an ACK1 for which bit 3 of Command 1 has been set to "0" (during command processing) is returned every 0.5 seconds until command processing is completed. When command processing is completed, an ACK2 for which bit 3 of Command 1 has been set to "1" (at the end of command processing) is returned every 0.5 seconds until command processing is completed. Bit 1 of Command 1 is set to 0; when the UA2 setting is FFH, it is possible to simultaneously operate all sets connected in cascade and as a result, ACK is not returned.
