It allows you to install your monitor in a Plug and Play compatible system without the usual hassles and confusion. Your PC system can easily identify and configure itself for use with your display. This monitor automatically tells the PC system its Extended Display Identification data (EDID) using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols. Setting up Your PC Software (Windows only) The Windows display-settings for a typical computer are shown below. But the actual screens on your PC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your particular video card. On the windows screen, select in the following sequence: Start © Settings © Control Panel. When the control panel screen appears, click on Display and a display dialog-box will appear. Select the Settings tab in the display dialog-box. The two key variables that apply the PDP-PC interface are “Resolution” and “Colors”. The correct settings for these two variables are: N Size (sometimes called “Resolution”) 1024 x 768 pixels. N Color 24-bit color (might also be expressed as “16 million colors”) Shown at left is a typical screen for Display dialog box. If a vertical-frequency option exists on your display settings dialog box, the correct value is 60 or 60 Hz. Otherwise, just click OK and exit the dialog box. 35 PC Input Mode (42”) ENG Both screen position and size will vary depending on the type of PC monitor and its resolution. The table below shows all of the display modes that are supported: (N: Negative / P: Positive) N The interlace mode is not supported. N The PDP might operate abnormally if a non-standard video format is selected. N The 4:3 mode does not work with input signals from “720 x 400”. Notes N The text quality of PC screen is optimum in the VGA mode (640 x 480), the full size displayed PC mode is optimum in the SVGA mode (800 x 600). N When this PDP is used as a PC display, 24-bit color is supported (over 16 million colors). N Your PC display screen might appear different depending on the manufacturer (and your particular version of Windows). Check your PC instruction book for information about connecting your PC to a PDP. N 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 turned off (or if the PC is disconnected). If so, press the Source button to enter the Video mode. Also, make sure that the PC is connected. N When connecting a notebook PC to the PDP, make sure that the PC screen is displayed through only the PDP monitor (Otherwise, random signals might appear). N When horizontal synchronous signals seem irregular in PC mode, check PC power saving mode or cable connections.

If not, first set your ID number. (Refer to “Setting the Multiple Display Control (MDC)” on page 43.) N When controlling more than four PDPs or using an extra cable, not the serial cable which is included in PDP, the MDC maybe operate abnormally. A multiple display control is an application allowing various displays to be easily and simultaneously operated on a PC. RS-232C, a standard of serial communication, is used for the communication between a PC and a display. Therefore, a serial cable should be connected between the serial port on a PC and the serial port on a display. 43 Setting the Multiple Display Control (MDC) ENG Move Select Exit S E T U P Language English TTX Contrast ID Setup � 0 1 � ID Input Enter ID Input Number.

If you cannot solve the problem using the instructions below, note the model and serial number of the PDP and contact your local dealer. Possible Solution N Check all wire connections. N The monitor is using its power management system. Check the power management utility on your computer. N Press the SELECT button to put your remote control in the Monitor mode. N Make sure the wall outlet is working. N Check to see that both the monitor and the source are plugged in and turned on. N Adjust the Picture settings. N Adjust the Size settings. Problem Poor picture. The power indicator is amber blinking. Your remote control does not operate the monitor. The monitor won’t turn on. There is no screen image. The image is too light or too dark. The image is too large or too small. With proper care, your PDP will give you many years of service. Please follow these guidelines to get the maximum performance from your PDP. N Identifying Problems - Do not put the PDP near extremely hot, cold, humid or dusty places. - Do not put the PDP near appliances that create magnetic fields. - Keep the ventilation openings clear. - Do not place the PDP on a rough and slanted surface, such as cloth or paper. N Liquids - Do not handle liquids near or on the PDP. N Cabinet - Never open the cabinet or touch the parts inside. - Wipe your PDP with a clean, dry cloth. Never use water, cleaning fluids, wax, or chemicals. - Do not put heavy objects on top of the cabinet. N Temperature - If your PDP is suddenly moved from a cold to a warm place, unplug the power cord for at least two hours so that moisture that may have formed inside the unit can dry completely. 55 Wiring the Mains Power Supply Plug (UK Only) ENG N IMPORTANT NOTICE The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug and, if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BSI1362 of the same rating must be used. Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted if the cover is detachable. If a replacement fuse cover is required, it must be of the same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer. If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance. However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do NOT connect the plug to a mains socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord. N IMPORTANT The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: BLUE - NEUTRAL BROWN - LIVE As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED. WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL, WHICH IS MARKED WITH THE LETTER E OR BY THE EARTH SYMBOL , OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN AND YELLOW. - AFTER SALES SERVICE - Do not hesitate to contact your retailer or service agent if a change in the performance of your product indicates that a faulty condition may be present.
