Installation Site Requirements  
3.1 Installation Site Requirements  
If the site requires modifications or special preparations for installation of the plasma display or its mounting hardware,  
obtain permission in advance from the building owner or building authorities. To ensure installations safety, it is also  
important to determine the strength of the installation site with the help of the original building contractor.  
Safety Precautions  
1) Structure of the installation site  
Make sure you thoroughly understand the structure of the installation site before determining the most suitable installation  
method. Buildings vary in structure and materials, and the appropriate mounting hardware with differ accordingly.  
When drilling into walls, always remain aware of the internal electric wiring and pipes.  
2) Weight capacity of the installation site  
Select a location with a weight capacity sufficient to support the total weight of the display and mounting hardware.  
3) Flat, level surfaces  
Select a flat, level surface for installation, such that mounting software will be parallel to the surface to which it is  
affixed.  
Install the unit so that the load is evenly distributed along the ceiling or floor, as well as on mounting hardware such as  
hang bolts.  
4) Sufficient work space  
Select a location with sufficient space for installation work. The installation work should be conducted by two or more  
persons.  
5) Nearby equipment  
If air conditioning ducts or lamps, etc. are located near the installation site, the attendant dust, extreme temperatures,  
humidity, and condensation may become sources of trouble. Please take sufficient steps to avoid this.  
6) Safe locations  
Do not install the unit where it may be easily touched or leaned against. Avoid locations subject to high vibration or  
severe impacts.  
7) Lighting conditions  
• Consider existing lighting and sunlight angles when creating the installation layout. Extremely bright lighting can  
reduce the visibility and quality of the display image.  
• In extremely bright surroundings, adjusting screen intensity may not result in perceptibly brighter images. Keep in  
mind that extreme intensity settings can reduce system service life.  
8) Installation partially outdoors  
The unit is designed for indoor use, and is not suited for open-air use. Installation in locations that are even partially  
exposed to the elements may lead to malfunctions or breakdown caused by any of the following:  
• Water and dust  
• Changes in temperature and humidity  
• Salt-bearing wind  
Direct sunlight upon the display degrades image quality. In installing the display, avoid sites exposed to direct sunlight.  
16

Installation Site Requirements  
9) Temperature and humidity conditions  
• The installation site should meet the following conditions:  
Operating temperatures: 0 to 40 °C (largely depending on installation conditions)  
Operating humidity: 20 to 80 %  
Storage temperature: –20 to 60 °C  
Storage humidity: 20 to 90 %  
Operating atmospheric pressure: 0.8 to 1.1 atm  
Storage atmospheric pressure: 0.6 to 1.5 atm  
• We recommend against installing electronic products such as this unit in locations subject to high humidity. If the unit  
is to be installed in a location subject to relatively high humidity, observe the following:  
Failure to install the unit in unacceptable ways may result in non-warranty damages.  
Make sure the unit is grounded.  
Do not allow water or other liquids to enter the unit.  
10) Prevent condensation  
One of the chief sources of problems during the winter is “condensation”. Rapid temperature fluctuations can deposit  
water vapor inside the unit or on the screen, degrading performance. If condensation occurs, turn the unit off and leave  
it off for an hour or so. It is also good practice to increase the room temperature gradually.  
Beware of condensation. Consult Pioneer authorized dealers for assistance.  
11) Power requirements  
• This unit functions properly when powered at 10 % of its rated voltage. Characteristics of power lines may effect  
the voltage output. If any of the following occurs, contact an electrician to inspect the power.  
Significant voltage drop between the circuit panel and the plasma display  
Significant changes in voltage when switching the unit power on or off  
• When calculating power consumption, allow for 500 W 500 VA of consumption per unit.  
(NOTE)  
The in-rush current upon powering will be approximately 30 A.  
12) Effective remote control distance  
This display emits weak infrared radiation. If other products controlled with infrared remote controls are placed nearby,  
remote control function may be affected. In such cases, move them further away from the display or contact Pioneer  
authorized dealer for assistance.  
Depending on installation conditions, the range of the unit's own remote control may be reduced by infrared radiation  
emitted by the screen.  
The screen's infrared intensity will vary, depending on the image displayed.

Installation Conditions  
3.2.2 Calculating heat quantity  
As a curtesy to our customers, we have included the power formula to calculate the air conditioning needs.  
For power consumption, allow for 500 W 500 VA per unit.  
Since most of the power consumed is transformed into heat, power consumption may be regarded as roughly equal to  
generated heat.  
1 Conversion to calories  
[W] × 0.86 = [kcal/h]  
Heat generated per display: 500 W × 0.86 = 430 kcal/h  
2 Conversion to British Thermal Units  
[W] × 3.41 = [BTU/h]  
Heat generated per unit: 500 W × 3.41 = 1705 BTU/h  
3.2.3 Product mounting holes  
We recommend using mounting hardware available from Pioneer. If you use other mounting hardware items, mount  
them to the unit using the M8-bolt holes provided in the unit. Remove the hole rivets, depending on the particular  
mounting hardware used. Tighten the bolts with a torque between 50 and 80 kg/cm. Applying a torque beyond these  
limits may lead to internal component failure.  
• Locations of useable mount holes are shown below. (Caps or plugs can be removed by turning them with a coin or  
other device.)

3.2.4 Mounting surface warping  
The display section incorporates glass. Before mounting the product, using hardware other than that provided by  
Pioneer, perform the following to confirm that the display is free from warps exceeding 1 mm*.  
* Regarding the 1mm limit  
The frame of the display may have a warp of up to 3mm. If the total warp (the warp of the frame plus the warp of the  
mount surface) exceeds 4mm then the glass in the display may be put under excessive stress. In order to ensure that  
the total warp is less than 4mm, you should make sure that the warp of the mount surface is less than 1mm.  
1 Referring to the illustration below, diagonally extend string of maximum φ 0.1-mm diameter through the bolt  
mount openings. Strings thus arranged should be completely free of slack.  
2 Measure the clearance (L) between the strings at their point of intersection.  
Distortion is expressed by: [Distortion] = L × 2.  
3 If L is found to be 0, pass the strings through the other bolt mount openings and repeat the measurements. Any  
value of L greater than 0 indicates the presence of distortion. If the measured value in both cases is 0, the  
distortion is negligible.

2) Unpacking procedures  
1 Remove the packing bands.  
2 Slowly lift and remove the upper carton.  
3 Lift and remove the carton cover.  
4 Remove the L, C and R upper cartons.  
5 Remove the front and rear cartons.  
6 Remove the operating instructions and accessories, which are secured to the lower carton by adhesive tape.  
7 Remove the unit. (This should be performed by two persons.)  
3) Transportation of the unpacked unit.  
If it needs to be moved, the unit should be lifted by two persons.  
• Never move the unit by dragging it along the floor.  
• Move the unit slowly, taking care to prevent scraping or striking the delicate front protective panel.  
• In order to prevent adhesion of dust, remove the protective film only after all work and preparations for the  
installation site, including clean-up following unpacking, are complete.  
3.3.3 Mounting on the attachment stands (See 4.3 " Installation of the Attachment Stand" for in-  
structions on permanent installation.)  
Insert the stand bolt into holes A and A' so that the head of the bolt can slide into the slot in the stand.  
Unpacking procedure stops at Step 2), 6, above. Bolts A and A' can be made to slide into the slot in the stand before  
the unit is unpacked. This method should, insofar as possible, be a temporary setup pending proper installation.  
When installing the attachment stand, consult 4.3 “Installation of the Attachment Stand”. If making the attachment  
to position B, use the B hole rivet, or remove the A stand bolt and attach it to position B.  
Placing the screen on the stands is only a temporary step before proper installation. We cannot guarantee against  
damage to the screen caused by it toppling over under an external force etc. while it is placed on the stands.

Installation Procedures  
3.3.5 Wiring  
1) Connecting the power cable  
• Refer to the section on Power Cord Connection on p. 16 of the operating instructions.  
• For power source specifications, refer to 3.1 “Installation Site Requirements”, Section 11) Power requirements,  
above.  
2) Connecting signal cables  
(1)Please refer to p10~17 of the instruction manual for instructions on how to connect a PC or a video device.  
(2)Important notes  
• Use coaxial cables. As a rough guide, for video signals use 3C-2V cables for lengths up to 15 meters, and 5C-  
2V cables for lengths up to 30 meters. Use thicker cables for computer signals, since these signals are more  
likely to degrade: 5C-2V cables, for example, for 15-meter lengths. Generally, thicker cables will produce  
more reliable connections. You can also improve signal quality by minimizing cable length.  
• Video cables plugged into video inputs and outputs close to dimmers, neon signs, air-conditioning units, or  
cables for wired broadcasts may occasionally deliver slightly corrupted images.  
3) Processing wires  
• In the case of permanent or long-term installation, please be careful to select cables of the correct length,  
considering the whole wiring route when doing this (this is not so important in the case of short-term installation  
such as with special events).  
• Arrange and secure cables so that they will not be subject to direct load or physical force. For temporary  
installation, securing cables with string should be perfectly adequate. For permanent installations, secure by  
more reliable means.

How to use the standard mounting components  
4.1 Standard Mounting Components Features and Characteristics  
In addition to reliability and the vivid display resulting from its large screen area, brightness, and image quality, the  
plasma display (PDP-502MX) is thin and lightweight, enabling mounting in locations not possible for conventional displays.  
We considered various mounting patterns and operating conditions during the design of the plasma display (PDP-  
502MX). A wide range of standard mounting hardware is available for easy mounting.  
Table-top Stand: PDK-5001  
This on-board support designed for the plasma display enables vertical placement of the unit.  
Plasma Display Ceiling Suspension Hardware (one-side type): PDK-5002  
Simple rod-type mounting hardware permitting display panning over a range of 45 degrees, and up to 25-degree  
downward tilting from the horizontal. Mount depth is 170 mm or less (in a vertical position, without optional speaker).  
This hardware enables installation of the unit in a wide range of locations.  
PDP Bracket: PDK-5005  
Can be used as a handle when moving the unit, or as a frame when wire-suspending it or hanging it on the wall. Most  
suitable for temporary use when quick, easy, and safe attachment is necessary.  
Tiltable wall-mount Hardware: PDK-5008  
Permits tilting of the display downward from the horizontal by up to 25 degrees. Mount depth is 125 mm or less(in  
vertical position, without optional speaker). This hardware permits a wide range of viewing angles.  
Speaker system: PDP-S03-LR  
This vertical twin-speaker system, with a newly developed elliptical unit 4.5 cm wide on top and bottom with a 2.5-  
cm dome cone tweeter in between, provides improved sound-field localization. Despite its compact 7.4-cm cabinet,  
the speaker system is capable of offering powerful dynamic sound reproduction. (Note that when the speaker is  
mounted to the main unit itself, the operation panel of the main unit is inaccessible.)

Handling the Standard Mounting Components  
4.2 Handling the Standard Mounting Components  
4.2.1 Handling precautions  
This section of the manual discusses ways to mount, install, and handle the mounting hardware exclusively designed  
for our plasma displays. Mounting should be performed by qualified experts.  
Refer all installation and mounting work to qualified persons, or request assistance from a Pioneer dealer.  
4.2.2 Precautions for installation contractors  
1) Before installation  
Observe the specifications supplied in 3.1 “Installation Site Requirements”.  
2) During Installation  
Carefully read and observe the contents of this section of the manual.  
The installation work should be performed by two or more people.  
3) After installation  
After installation the mounting hardware, check for adequate strength and properly tightened screws. Repeat this  
inspection after mounting the display.  
4) Delivering to the customer  
(1)Explaining mounting precautions  
We ask that the mounting contractor explain the following precautions to the customer after mounting and  
installation work is completed. Even if the particulars of an installation are letter-perfect, your work may be perceived  
as inadequate unless you patiently and thoroughly explain these precautions so that the customer fully understands  
them.  
The following are highly dangerous and must be avoided at all times:  
• Any sudden application of force, including pushing and pulling  
• Splashing water on the unit  
• Placing any object on the unit  
• Touching mount screws and other mounting hardware  
For worry-free use of the unit:  
• If any problem arises, the user should immediately ask the installation contractor to conduct inspection and  
repair.  
• To guard against accidents, ask the customer not to make any tilt or height adjustments. Such work should be  
referred to the installation contractor.  
(2)Mounting contractor contact form  
We ask the mounting and installation contractor to complete the contractor contact form supplied with the unit  
and give it to the end-user after post-installation inspections are complete and the above precautions have been  
explained.  
(3)Periodic inspections  
Over time, aging of various components of the suspension/mounting hardware that are not readily visible may  
render the installation unreliable. This may possibly lead to the display breaking free of its mounting. Please  
recommend periodic inspections.

4.5.3 Assembling and Installing the mounting hardware and mounting the plasma display  
1) Preparations  
You will need the following tools. Make sure you have them at hand before beginning work.  
• Wrench or spanner (subtense 12 mm)  
• Hexagonal wrench (subtense 4 mm, for M5 bolts)  
• Hexagonal wrench (subtense 5 mm, for M6 bolts)  
• Hexagonal wrench (subtense 6 mm, for M8 bolts)  
• Hexagonal wrench (subtense 8 mm, for M10 bolts)  
You'll also need tools for ceiling work.  
2) Assembling and installing the mounting software  
1 Confirm that the monitor brackets (left and right) are firmly mounted to the monitor frame. Insert the center rod  
through the monitor frame, and the spacer into the post COMP. Secure the post COMP and the center rod with two  
hexagonal socket head bolts (M8 × 75).  
2 Tighten the vibration-preventing hexagonal socket head bolt.  
3 Select the installation site, then apply the supplied pattern to the ceiling, drill the suitable holes, and mount the ceiling  
flange COMP. The appropriate types of screws and other display/mounting hardware will depend on the strength  
and composition of the particular ceiling.  
4 Insert the post COMP into the ceiling flange COMP and secure the two with two hexagonal socket head bolts (M10  
× 85).  
5 Tighten the vibration-preventing hexagonal socket head bolt (M6 × 10).  
• Firmly tight all bolts.  
• After mounting the mounting hardware but before mounting the plasma display, confirm the strength of the  
mount portion of the ceiling.  
• For additional safety, use the holes in the ceiling COMP flange, as shown.  
[Use parts strong enough to support the weight of the display.]

3) Mounting the plasma display  
1 Remove the hole rivets (six, in a vertical line), from the rear of the plasma display.  
2 Mount the supplied monitor mount bolt assembly (three per side) to the mount opening at the rear of the display.  
3 Loosen the upper mount screws securing the left and right monitor brackets, and tilt the brackets to full extension.  
(Do NOT loosen the lower screws.)  
4 Lift the plasma display, and insert the monitor mount bolt assemblies into the monitor brackets.  
5 To avoid twisting and deforming the plasma display, always tighten the nut for the monitor mount bolt assembly  
(three per side) after loosening the upper mount screws of the monitor brackets.  
6 Adjust the tilt of the plasma display (tiltable 25 degrees from horizontal).  
Determine the desired angle, then re-tighten the upper mount screws for both the left and the right monitor brackets.  
Holes in the monitor brackets serve as angle marks (in 5-degree increments).  
7 Adjust the left and right rotational angle of the plasma display (panning over a range of 45° on each side).  
Hold the monitor frame and rotate the display to the desired angle, then secure the display assembly by tightening  
the vibration-preventing hexagonal socket head bolts (M6 × 30).  
8 Connect cables to the display by running them through cable opening in the post COMP. If the cables are too thick  
to pass through the cable openings in the post COMP, connect them to the display directly, or replace with thinner  
cables.

or bottom of the back of the speaker. These mounting  
holes are at different levels. To make the hole levels  
even, use additional washers until they are flush.  
• When you install the speakers, using  
screws other than those provided may  
cause the speakers to fall or malfunction.  
Use only the screws provided for  
installation.

Washers M8 (φ 25) are supplied to use together with com-  
mercially available metal fixtures.  
1. Turn off the power switch of a stereo amplifier.  
2. Connect an input terminal of the speaker system with  
a speaker output terminal of the stereo amplifier using  
the supplied speaker cords. Polarity of the input termi-  
nal is positive (+) for red terminal (right terminal in the  
figure below) and negative (-) for black (left terminal in  
the figure below).  
• Fix commercially available metal  
fixture at either position of  
mounting holes for commercially  
available metal fixture at the  
center or bottom of the rear side

4) Cleaning the cabinet  
• Lightly wipe off dust or dirt by a polishing cloth or a dry  
cloth.  
• Make sure that the end of the cord is securely  
connected with the terminals by lightly pulling the cord  
after connection. Incomplete connection may cause  
broken sound or noise.  
• If the cabinet is very dirty, clean off the dirt using a soft  
cloth dipped in a neutral cleanser diluted 5 - 6 times,  
then wipe off any moisture using a dry cloth. Do not  
use a furniture wax or cleaner because it may dissolve  
or discolor the surface.  
• If the cord wiring sticks out and the positive and negative  
wires short, the stereo amplifier will be subjected to an  
excessive load, and operation may stop or a malfunction  
may occur.  
• Note that the surface may be dissolved or discolored  
when thinner, benzene, or spray type insecticide is stuck  
there.  
• When wrong polarity (+, -) of either speaker system  
(right or left) is connected to the stereo amplifier, proper  
stereo effects may not be obtained due to insufficient  
bass or loss of sound orientation feeling.  
• If using a chemically impregnated cloth, take care to  
observe the caution notices applying to use of the cloth.

5.1.6 Aging  
After switching on power to the unit, input signals to perform aging until the unit stabilizes. Use signals that are unlikely  
to cause the displayed images to be “burned” onto the screen: signals such as a 100 % white signal, or animation from  
LDs are recommended. The process should take about 30 minutes. This ensures precision adjustments.  
(NOTE) Display of still images over extended periods can lead to the above-mentioned “burning”.

2) Setting the color system  
INPUT 1 and 2 support all the various formats used in worldwide, which they distinguish between automatically.  
CAUTION  
This unit is not compatible with PAL-M or PAL-N.  
Normally, COLOR SYSTEM:AUTO is set for distinguishing automatically, but occasionally there may be instances of  
faulty playback, “no color”, etc., as in cases of VTR signals from multifold-generated copy of VTR signals.  
In such a case, set as follows, according to the input signal.  
Carry out the setting for either INPUT 1 or 2.  
For NTSC signal input  
For PAL signal input  
= set COLOR SYSTEM : NTSC.  
= set COLOR SYSTEM : PAL.  
For SECAM signal input = set COLOR SYSTEM : SECAM  
For 4.43 NTSC signal input = set COLOR SYSTEM : 4.43 NTSC  
If you know what the previously input signal was, a fixed setting can be used for smooth signal handling; this can  
shorten signal-switching time and prevent errors in distinguishing signals.  
Set-able condition: INPUT 1 or 2  
Factory preset:  
INPUT 1 : AUTO  
INPUT 2 : AUTO  
2 Move the cursor to COLOR SYSTEM, and press  
the SET button to change the setting.

5) Setting up peripheral equipment  
The unit is equipped with a function for automatically identifying whether the input signal is a PC signal or a video  
signal from something like a DVD player from the input signal frequency. However in the case of 31.5k / 60Hz video  
signal input or 640 x 480 / 60Hz PC signal input this function does not operate.  
In such cases, it is necessary to switch over the setting manually.  
This setting needs to be made separately for INPUT 3 and INPUT 4.

7) Setting the clamp position  
Plugging in RGB (G ON SYNC) signals and a sync signal simultaneously may produce inappropriate intensity  
reproduction, with an over-bright screen or images with a greenish cast. If this occurs, set “CLAMP : MODE 2”. For  
most situations, leave “CLAMP : MODE 1”.  
Clamp pulse (a timing pulse necessary for intensity reproduction), is generated in two ways, “a” and “b”, as shown  
in Figure 1.

with G ON SYNC

Clamp pulse  
Sync signals are monitored in “CLAMP : MODE 1”, and the unit is automatically switched to generate a clamp pulse by  
method “a“ shown in Figure 1 in the presence of sync signal, and by method “b“ in the absence of a sync signal. But  
when a sync signal is fed simultaneously with G ON SYNC, the unit perceives a sync signal, and generates a clamp  
pulse as shown in “a“ in Figure 1. The generated clamp pulse is mis-timed, making correct reproduction of intensity  
impossible.  
In this case, unplug the sync signal or set “CLAMP : MODE 2“.  
In “CLAMP MODE 2“, the clamp pulse is generated by pulse“b“in Figure 1, whether or not a sync signal is present,  
ensuring correct reproduction of intensity.  
(NOTE) The figures above are for illustrative purposes only.  
(NOTE) Please regard the case of composite sync input as being the same as the case of separate sync input.  
Set-able condition:  
RGB signal received via INPUT 3 or 4.

8) ABL ON/OFF  
Setting ABL: ON during playback of PC signals increases screen brightness.  
If you set “ABL to ON” then the peak brightness will rise, and in addition the brightness of the pictures produced by  
input signals will change.  
If the change is unsatisfactory, set ABL: OFF.  
Differences between ABL ON and OFF (illustration):  
ABL: OFF  
ABL: ON  
The intensity levels of input signals are

9) H/V enhancement tuning  
H/V enhancement tuning may be used to adjust picture sharpness for PC input signals. Horizontal and vertical  
sharpness may be adjusted independently. Note that sharpness control is particularly effective when displaying  
enlarged XGA, SVGA, or VGA input or when displaying compressed SXGA or UXGA input.  
Note:Setting the sharpness level too high may result in the outlines of text or other elements displayed to appear  
unnatural.  
Requirements :

5.4 Integrator Mode  
5.4.1 About the integrator mode  
1) How to enter integrator mode  
• Place the unit in integrator mode by doing the following:  
Procedure: In standby, switch on power to the unit using the e remote control or the operating panel of the main  
unit, as follows:  
MENU button  
=
POWER button  
(This procedure should be complete in three seconds.)  
2) Upon entering the integrator mode  
• With the exception of CLK PHS, all PICTURE and SCREEN adjustments made in menu mode will be cancelled,  
with the values returning to the center values.  
3) When you make adjustments in integrator mode:  
• The various adjustment values for PICTURE, WHITE BALANCE and SCREEN (see 5.4.3 1) to 3)) will be stored  
separately for each input function and each type of input signal. In the case of PC signal input, however, values can  
be stored for only 4 types of input signal (signal frequency) for each input function. If adjustment is carried out for  
a fifth type of input signal then the oldest adjustment data is erased from memory.  
• For more details please refer to “5.4.5 PICTURE and WHITE BALANCE adjustment values memory area tables”  
and “5.4.6 SCREEN adjustment values memory area tables”.  
4) To exit integrator mode  
• Press the MENU button on the remote control or on the operating panel of the main unit to restore the unit to  
normal operating mode.  
5) NOTES:  
(1)The input can't be switched while in the integrator mode.  
Make sure you have switched to the appropriate input before entering the integrator mode.  
It is also important to plug in signals beforehand.  
(2) Integrator mode is cancelled automatically in all of the following situations, returning to normal operating mode.  
• When switching over to another input signal mode (i.e., to another signal frequency)  
• When no operation occurs for a period of approximately three minutes  
• When you press the KEY LOCK/UNLOCK button on the operating panel of the main unit  
(3)For adjustments and settings, feed video signals that you will actually use into the production run.

4) Adjusting the side mask  
The side mask adjusts the brightness of no-image areas appearing on the fringe of the screen when the screen size  
is set to 4 : 3 NORMAL or to ORIGINAL, for example.  
The brightness of each color of RGB can be adjusted separately.  
In adjusting the side mask, think of how video signals develop with time, and also of a balance in brightness between  
the adjacent display sets.  
(NOTE) During adjustment, a striped pattern may appear on the mask. This is not a fault.

11) Setting the cooling fan control formula  
The back of the main unit is equipped with cooling fans.  
With this function, the control formats of the fans can be switched.  
To have the fans automatically controlled according to an internal temperature sensor = set AUTO.  
To set a fixed maximum number of revolutions (cut automatic control) = set FIXED (MAX).  
(NOTE) The FIRED (MAX) setting is useful in the case that the unit has been installed in a special environment.  
In this case, however, the noise of the fan rotating will become large, and so you should take care over the  
installation environment (particularly if the unit is installed in a quiet place).  
For more information, please refer to Chapter 3, “Installation”.

This item can be used to individually adjust each sound level input.  
It is convenient to use when adjusting level between different sources (for example, between a DVD player and a  
PC).  
After first turning off muting, switch to integrator mode and then adjust the volume. The values to which SUB  
VOLUME can be adjusted depend on the current input function.  
• When the current input function is INPUT 1 or INPUT 2: SUB VOLUME can be adjusted to INPUT 1 or INPUT 2  
• When the current input function is INPUT 3 or INPUT 4: SUB VOLUME can be adjusted to INPUT 3 or INPUT 4

Use of SUB VOLUME: Example 1  
In the case that a video deck is connected to INPUT 1 (pictures only) and a DVD player is connected to INPUT 2  
(pictures and sound)  
(Video input) When INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 has been selected, DVD player audio will be output.  
Since sound is not required while a video is being played using the video deck (INPUT 1), you should set the SUB  
VOLUME for INPUT 1 to zero.  
Use of SUB VOLUME: Example 2  
In the case that a DVD player is connected to INPUT 2 (pictures and sound) and a PC is connected to INPUT 4  
(pictures and sound)  
If the difference in volume between the DVD player and the PC is irritating, adjust the SUB VOLUME for whichever  
is louder.

5.4.5 PICTURE and WHITE BALANCE adjustment values memory area tables  
The memory area tables used during PICTURE and WHITE BALANCE adjustment have the layout shown below. Color  
modes 1 and 2 are independent and so the PICTURE and WHITE BALANCE adjustment values for these two modes are  
stored in separate parts of memory. When you switch between color modes 1 and 2, the PICTURE and WHITE BALANCE  
adjustment values for all inputs switch over all at once.

RS-232C Adjustment Mode  
5.5 RS-232C Adjustment Mode  
Through the unit's RS-232C terminal. You can use a PC to make various adjustments and settings.  
5.5.1 About the RS-232C adjustment mode  
1) When carrying out adjustments in the RS-232C adjustment mode  
• The data is written into the same memory area as for integrator mode (refer to 5.4.5 and 5.4.6 ‘Memory area  
tables’).  
(NOTE) Adjustments affect only the input selected.  
2) Screens displayed in the RS-232C Adjustment Mode  
• The display will appear much like the illustration to the right.  
The ID number of the set of adjustments will be indicated  
in the upper left corner of the screen, where “– –” is shown  
in the illustration.  
– –  
MODE 0C-1  
A display such as “0C-1” in the upper right of the screen is  
for factory adjustments.  
ADJUSTMENT  
CAUTION  
(1) Always enter ID before using RS-232C adjustment mode.  
In addition, include the ID of the set to be targeted for control/adjustment in the RS-232C command  
that you transmit. Refer to section 5.5.2, “Interface”.  
(2) The adjustments are stored in last memory using <AJN>. When you have finished making the adjustments,  
make sure that you execute <AJN>. When changing the type of signal that will be the target of the  
adjustments (e.g. when changing from NTSC to PAL or changing the PC refresh rate), make sure that you  
execute <AJN> before switching over the type of signal and then once again execute <AJY>.  
(3) Some RS-232C commands can be used in normal operating mode. Refer to section 5.5.4, “List of RS-  
232C commands”.  
(4) With the exception of the following cases, the adjustment data and set items from RS-232C adjustment  
mode are all stored in last memory. A precondition for this however is that all of the conditions in “5.1.5  
Last memory” have been satisfied.  
Cases where the adjustment data and set items are not stored in last memory.  
For the following commands in normal operating mode:  
• <IN 1-4>  
(input switching)  
• <MMN. X. Y. Z> (mirror mode switching)  
• <AMY. N>  
• <AJY>  
(muting)  
(transition to RS-232C adjustment mode)  
For the following command in RS-232C adjustment mode  
• <DOF>  
(OSD display OFF)  
Please take due care.  
(5) About <DIN>/<DIY> (OSD displays disabled/enabled)  
No matter what the settings, the following items may be displayed.  
• Menu display (Menu mode, integrator mode, and RS-232C adjustment mode)  
• Warning just before the Power Save feature comes on  
• Warning of high internal temperature (“THERMAL WARNING! PLEASE SHUT DOWN”)  
• Display announcing KEY LOCK is set; also display announcing the setting of KEY LOCK/UNLOCK  
(6) RS-232C adjustment mode is automatically canceled when the STANDBY/ON, MENU, or KEY LOCK/  
UNLOCK (main unit operating panel only) are pushed.

RS-232C Adjustment Mode  
5.5.3 ID assignment  
When a connection is made, this feature assigns an ID. ID assignment is performed in the PC.  
Commands: <IDC> (ID CLEAR)........ Clears assigned IDs.  
<IDS> (ID SET) ............. Assigns IDs  
IDS is only effective when an ID has not been assigned.  
It is assigned from a unit close to the PC.  
Example: 4 units (At first, the ID is assigned at the PC.)  
First of all, following the example in the diagram below, carry out the RS-232C connection and the combination  
connection (see “5.6 Combination connection”).  
PC  
Unit #1  
ID = 01  
Unit #2  
ID = 02  
Unit #3  
ID = 03  
Unit #4  
ID = 04

3 <∗∗AJY>  
4 <02 IDS>  
5 <∗∗AJY>  
6 <03 IDS>  
7 <∗∗AJY>  
8 <04 IDS>  
By sending RS-232C commands in this order, you can assign an ID to each set.  
A unit to which an ID has been assigned can only receive commands which have that ID attached. Attach ID to the  
beginning of commands before transmitting them.  
Characters that may be used when assigning IDs are 0~9 and A~F (there is no differentiation between uppercase and  
lowercase letters).  
<∗∗IDC> : Clear assigned ID of all units.  
<1AJY> : Units with 1 as the second digit in their ID will go into adjustment mode.  
<2IN1> : Units with 2 as their first digit will use INPUT 1.  
Cautionary notes regarding ID assignment  
Units connected to other units from which IDs were cleared will become inoperable by RS-232C.  
After making settings as in the diagram above, if you carry out <**AJY> = <**IDC> then the IDs will be cleared for all  
of the sets #1~#4, and it will become such that you can only control the set connected directly to the PC (set #1).  
If you then carry out <**AJY> = <01 IDS>, it will become such that you can only control the second set (set #2).  
By setting ID likewise thereafter, the setting of subsequent units will become operable.

distinguished from the term ‘ambient temperature’ as used in 3 “Installation”. Note that there may be  
times when errors occur in temperature readings. Also note that it is particularly important to be sure to  
check the ambient temperature when the unit has been installed as described in 3.4 “Special Installation”  
to ensure that all installation requirements have been satisfied.

Combination Connection  
5.6 Combination Connection  
This is useful for controlling/adjusting a number of sets from a single PC.  
By carrying out combination connection and then assigning IDs to each of the sets, it becomes possible to control/  
adjust a number of sets either all at once or individually.  
5.6.1 Connections  
Carry out connections as shown below. You can then control/adjust the units from the PC.

NOTE  
You may use either combination input or control port RS-232C connector, but not both at once. Using both  
simultaneously will result in malfunction or system breakdown.  
Don't connect combination inputs to other combination inputs, or combination outputs to other combination outputs.  
It may cause a trouble.  
General purpose Mini Din 6-pin (straight) cables may be used as combination cables.  
The connections for remote control signals are as shown below.  
• The order of precedence for remote control signals is as follows:  
1 Control IN terminal (SR IN) > 2 Combination IN terminal > 3 Remote control infra-red receiver  
Example: If you connect a cable to the Control IN terminal (SR IN) then the built-in Control IN terminal (SR IN) switch  
makes it impossible to receive remote control signals via either the remote control infra-red receiver (??) or  
the Combination IN terminal.  
(NOTE) RS-232C signals can still be received via the Combination IN terminal.

to assign an ID. For more details see “5.5.3 ID Assignment”.  
NOTE 2) With the Combination IN/OUT terminals, remote control signals and RS-232C signals are inputted/outputted  
simultaneously. For more details see “2.3 Controls and Connectors”.

KEY LOCK/UNLOCK  
5.7 KEY LOCK/UNLOCK  
5.7.1 Functions  
The KEY LOCK function disables the remote control unit and the main unit operation panel, preventing unauthorized  
persons from tampering with the unit after installation (RS-232C commands remain effective). Attempting to operate  
the remote control unit or the main unit operation panel will cause “KEY LOCK” to be displayed in the upper right  
corner of the screen. The unit is factory preset to KEY UNLOCK, meaning that the remote control unit and main unit  
operation panel are both enabled.  
5.7.2 How to switch KEY LOCK/UNLOCK  
Two settings methods are available:  
1) With the operating panel of the main unit (A hidden button is provided for this purpose.)  
Change the setting between KEY LOCK and KEY UNLOCK using the KEY LOCK/UNLOCK button hidden between  
the STANDBY/ON and INPUT buttons. Pressing the KEY LOCK/UNLOCK button while in menu mode or integrator  
mode automatically places the unit in normal operating mode and at the same time invokes the KEY LOCK status.  
2) Using RS-232C Commands  
Issue the <AJY> command to enter RS-232C adjustment mode. Then issue the <KLY> command to invoke KEY  
LOCK or the <KLN> command to invoke KEY UNLOCK.

Regarding the problem of images becoming burnt onto the screen  
5.8 Regarding the problem of images becoming burnt onto the screen  
If the same image is shown on the screen for a prolonged period of time (i.e. a still picture or a closed-captioning etc.),  
then this image may become permanently burnt onto the screen. This problem can be managed by changing image  
composition, source rotation or other methods. Additionally, this unit also offers the following methods of reducing the  
likelihood of images from becoming burnt onto the screen.  
1 Movement of the picture border  
Every time you turn the unit on, the built-in microcomputer moves the picture border randomly.  
NOTE: This only applies when there is a side mask, for example with the 4:3 screen size.  
2 Automatic brightness adjustment (detection of still pictures)  
This function detects pictures that have little or no movement and automatically adjusts the brightness. (This function  
operates only in normal operating mode and menu mode.)  
3 Side mask adjustment  
Side mask adjustment may be used to adjust the brightness of the area around the periphery of the display in which  
no picture is displayed when displaying images at 4:3 size or other reduced sizes, thus helping to prevent the burning  
of side mask border lines into the screen caused by differences in the brightness of displayed images and the side  
mask area. (Please refer to “5.4.3.4 Adjusting the side mask”.)  
Adjustment is also possible using RS-232C commands (please refer to “5.5.4 List of RS-232C commands”).  
4 Full mask (Full Screen Color Wash) setting  
This function turns the entire screen a single color - white, red, green or blue - using a PDP internal signal (please  
refer to “5.4.3.10 Setting FULL MASK”).  
Setting is also possible using RS-232C commands (please refer to “5.5.4 List of RS-232C commands”).  
In the case that an image has been burnt onto the screen, FULL MASK can be used as an emergency measure to  
reduce the symptoms (although it will be impossible to completely remove the burnt-on image).  
In addition, proper ‘aging’ of the screen through use of FULL MASK in advance will make the screen less prone to  
the problem of images becoming burnt onto it.

Operating Precautions and recommendations  
6.1 Operating Precautions and recommendations  
1) If the display shuts down on its own and will not power up again, please try the followings.  
Turn off the main power switch for the plasma display, wait 10 seconds and power it on again.  
If the display shuts down, there may be a internal problem, Consult with Pioneer Authorized Service Center.  
If it remains powered up, you may continue using it.  
2) If the same image is shown on the screen for a prolouged period of time (i.e. a still picture or a closed-captioning,  
etc.), then this image may become permanently burnt onto the screen.  
This ploblem can be managed by changing image composition, source rotation or other methods.  
(NOTE) Please see section “5.8 Regarding the problem of images becoming burnt onto the screen“ for details.  
3) The following signals cause inferior image quality:  
• Multifold-generation video sources copy of VTR signals  
• Copyright protected signals  
• Scrambled CATV signals  
• Signals with significantly phase-shifted sync and video signals  
4) Images are blacked out for approximately one to three seconds when input is switched, to permit the plasma display  
driver to temporarily suspend operation while video memory is refreshed. When you switch input between different  
frequencies, a longer black-out interval is needed (up to approximately three seconds) due to the array of data to be  
changed in video memory. Allow for this interval when “staging” video.  
5) The fan will begin spinning faster when ambient temperature rises above 30 °C. This is normal.  
6) About the plasma panel's screen-saver feature (Direction of still images)  
Brightness will drop slightly when photo images or slow-moving images, such as those supplied by a PC, are shown  
for extended periods. The unit detects the lack of motion, and automatically dims the screen brightness to protect  
the plasma display panel. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.  
• The feature generally kicks in approximately five minutes after powering-up or switching input in normal operating  
mode/menu mode. This feature does not function in RS-232C adjustment mode <AJY> or in integrator mode.

Maintenance and Cleaning  
1) Unplug the power cord from the outlet.  
2) Cabinet and remote control unit  
Never use solvents such as benzene or thinner, which can damage or destroy the coating on the cabinet or the  
remote control unit.  
Remove dirt by lightly wiping with a soft cloth.  
If necessary, slightly moisten the cloth with neutral detergent, diluted with water. In humid conditions, wipe off  
condensation with a dry cloth.  
3) Screen (front protection panel)  
The screen surface (front protection panel) is coated with a delicate anti-glare material. To clean the screen dust off  
and wipe lightly with a soft cloth. Do not rub with tissue paper or hard abrasive materials.  
Never use solvents such as benzene or thinner, which can discolor the screen or render it opaque.  
For cleaning, we recommend the following cloth and fluid.  
Name  
Part Number  
AED1174  
Cleaning cloth, wiping cloth  
Cleaning cloth: Minimax  
Cleaning liquid: B4  
GED-009  
GEM1004  
For light soiling, brush off dust and lightly wipe with Minimax. In case of heavy soiling, brush off dust, then wipe with  
Minimax with its corner lightly moistened with B4. Be sure to wipe with dry Minimax after B4 dries out as there may  
be unevenness remaining otherwise.  
4) Vents  
Every month, remove dirt from the vent openings that house fans on the sides and rear of the main unit, using a  
vacuum cleaner set to its lowest suction setting. Be sure to switch off the power on the main unit before cleaning  
the vents.  
Blocked vents can lead to dangerously high internal temperatures, resulting in malfunctions or fire.  
5) Readjustment of White Balance  
The unit uses phosphor elements, as do CRTs. These phosphors degrade over time, reducing brightness. Since  
green and blue phosphors degrade faster than red, we recommend readjusting the white balance every 1000 hours.
