THREE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
For Plasma Displays
Congratulations on your purchase of a Vidikron video product and welcome to the Vidikron family! With proper installation, setup
and care, you should enjoy many years of unparalleled video performance.
This is a LIMITED WARRANTY as defined in the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Please read it carefully and retain it with your other
important documents.
WHAT IS COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY:
SERVICE LABOR: Vidikron will pay for service labor by a Vidikron Authorized Service Center when needed as a result of a
manufacturing defect for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of delivery to the end user (excluding the plasma glass
panel).
PARTS (not including plasma glass panel): Vidikron will provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that fail due to
defects in materials or workmanship for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of delivery to the end user. Such
replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the remaining portion (if any) of the original warranty period.
PLASMA GLASS PANEL: Vidikron will pay for service labor by a Vidikron Authorized Service Center when needed as a result of a
manufacturing defect for a period of one (1) year from the effective date of delivery to the end user. In addition, Vidikron will
provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that fail due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of one (1)
year from the effective date of delivery to the end user. Such replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the remaining
portion (if any) of the original warranty period.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY:
Image burn-in on plasma display panels is specifically excluded from coverage under this Limited Warranty. Image burn-in is the
result of misuse of the product and therefore cannot be repaired under the terms of this Limited Warranty.
Normal viewing material such as television/satellite broadcasts, videotape or DVDs (not put into pause for extended periods of
time) will not cause damage to your display under normal conditions. Many DVD players are also equipped with screen savers for
this reason.
TO AVOID IMAGE RETENTION (Burn-in): Please ensure that still images are left on your plasma display panel for no more than a
few minutes. Also ensure that images displayed in the 4:3 aspect ratio mode (black or gray stripes, but no picture information is
present on the left and right edges of the screen) are used as infrequently as possible. This will prevent permanent image burns on
your plasma display panel, which can be seen permanently under certain conditions once burn-in has occurred.
The types of images to avoid include video games, still images and computer screens with stationary tool bars and icons. (This is
why computers are equipped with screen savers – to prevent still images from burning into the monitor’s phosphors after being
displayed continuously for an extended period of time).
This Limited Warranty only covers failure due to defects in materials and workmanship that occur during normal use and does not
cover normal maintenance. This Limited Warranty does not cover cabinets or any appearance items; failure resulting from
accident, misuse, abuse, neglect, mishandling, misapplication, faulty or improper installation or setup adjustments; improper
maintenance, alteration, improper use of any input signal; damage due to lightning or power line surges, spikes and brownouts;
damage that occurs during shipping or transit; or damage that is attributed to acts of God. In the case of remote control units,
damage resulting from leaking, old, damaged or improper batteries is also excluded from coverage under this Limited Warranty.

CAUTION: THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ONLY COVERS VIDIKRON PRODUCTS PURCHASED FROM VIDIKRON AUTHORIZED DEALERS.
ALL OTHER PRODUCTS ARE SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED FROM COVERAGE UNDER THIS WARRANTY. MOREOVER, DAMAGE
RESULTING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR SETUP IS SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED FROM COVERAGE

RIGHTS, LIMITS AND EXCLUSIONS:
Vidikron limits its obligations under any implied warranties under state laws to a period not to exceed the warranty period. There
are no express warranties. Vidikron also excludes any obligation on its part for incidental or consequential damages related to the
failure of this product to function properly. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages. So the above limitations or exclusions may
not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
EFFECTIVE WARRANTY DATE:
This warranty begins on the effective date of delivery to the end user. For your convenience, keep the original bill of sale as

the product, during usual working hours, providing location of product is within normal operating distance from a Vidikron
Authorized Service Center. In some instances it may be necessary for the product to be returned to the Vidikron factory for repairs.
If, solely in Vidikron’s judgment, location of product to be repaired is beyond normal operating distance of the closest Vidikron
Authorized Service Center, or the repair requires the unit be returned to the Vidikron factory, it is the owner’s responsibility to
arrange for shipment of the product for repair. These arrangements must be made through the selling Vidikron Dealer. If this is not

The PlasmaView High-Definition Plasma Display combines high-resolution quality and
affordability into one package. It has all of the features that one has come to expect from a
Vidikron product, including high-quality video processing, aspect ratio control and ease of
use. The advanced Vidikron processing inside the PlasmaView combined with its high native
resolution allows the most accurate scaling for all types of signals, including DVD
(progressive or interlaced), all currently-available HDTV formats and computers.
1.3
Description, Features and
Benefits
For video originally made in film, the PlasmaView has built-in 3:2 pulldown for the sharpest
and most artifact-free images possible. Like all Vidikron plasmas, it can be mounted on a wall,
ceiling or placed on a tabletop and is bright enough for use in any lighting situation: its size is
such that it can be the centerpiece of many home theaters.
The PlasmaView offers a resolution of up to 1365 x 768 and discrete aspect ratio control with
IntelliWide™ mode to fill a 16:9 screen with standard 4:3 images without loss of picture
quality. Also included are discrete source selection, multi-language support and an RS-232
interface for whole-house or automated control system integration.
The PlasmaView High-Definition Plasma Display has been carefully engineered with ISF™
calibration standards for superb video performance. At less than 5.25 inches deep, it can be
wall-mounted or used on a tabletop stand.
For high-altitude installations, Vidikron also offers the VP-4200a, VP-5000a and VP-6000a
with industry-leading high-altitude compliance to over 9000 feet (2,740 meters) mean sea
level (MSL). The VP-4200a, VP-5000a and VP-6000a share all other features and specifications
with the VP-4200, VP-5000a and VP-6000 respectively.
The PlasmaView offers these key features and benefits:

Proper installation of your PlasmaView will ensure the highest possible picture quality.
Whether you are installing the PlasmaView temporarily or permanently, you should take the
following into account to ensure that it performs optimally.
3.3
Installation Considerations
High-Altitude Operation
Due to the design of all plasma glass panels made by every manufacturer, and the interaction
between ambient air pressure and the plasma gases contained inside of the panel, reliable
operation of your plasma display cannot be assured during operation at certain high-altitude
locations.
➤
Vidikron has found this plasma monitor to operate reliably at altitudes of up to 6000 MSL
(mean sea level). At elevations higher than this, each panel may react differently, depending
upon the altitude, air pressure, humidity and other meteorological factors.
For this reason, Vidikron makes no warranties or claims as to the reliable operation of the
PlasmaView at altitudes greater than 6000 feet above sea level. If you are planning to use this
product at a location above 6000 feet, please contact Vidikron technical support for further
information.
Mounting the PlasmaView on
a Wall or Table Stand
To install the PlasmaView, you will need either an optional table stand or wall-mounting kit.
The PlasmaView cannot be installed on its own.
➤
If you do decide to wall-mount the PlasmaView, ensure that the wall-mount bracket is
installed according to the instructions included with it. The wall must be capable of
supporting a redundant weight factor three (3) times the weight of the display, or be
reinforced.
Vidikron recommends that this be done by a custom installation specialist.
Use only a Vidikron-approved wall-mount kit or table stand that is
Note
You can attach your optional mounts or stand to the PlasmaView in either of two ways:
While it is upright.

•
As it lies flat with the screen face
down. Place the protective sheet,
which was wrapped around the
plasma monitor when it was
packaged, between the screen and
your work surface to avoid
scratching or otherwise damaging
the screen surface.
In general, minimize or eliminate light sources directed at the display. Contrast ratio in your
images will be noticeably reduced if light directly strikes the display, such as when a shaft of
light from a window or floodlight falls on the image. Images may then appear washed out
and less vibrant.
Ambient Light
Ventilation
If you are mounting the PlasmaView in an enclosure, leave at least 2 inches (50 mm) of space
disperse, maintaining the proper operating temperature.

Other Considerations
Other considerations and tips that can help improve your installation, avoid damage and
prolong operating life:
➤
•
•
•
Keep the ambient temperature constant and below 35°C (95°F). Keep the display away
from heating and/or air conditioning vents. Changes in temperature may cause drifts in
the display circuitry, which may affect performance.
Keep the PlasmaView away from devices that radiate electromagnetic energy such as
motors and transformers. Common sources of these include slide projectors, speakers,
power amplifiers and elevators.
Handle the unit carefully when installing it. When carrying it, use the built-in handles; DO
NOT touch or hold the screen face.
•
•
Set the unit away from heat, excessive dust, and direct sunlight.
Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small metal objects. In case of accident,
unplug the power cord and have it serviced by an authorized Vidikron Service Center.
•
•
Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes flaws on the surface of the screen.
For correct installation and mounting it is strongly recommended to use a trained,
authorized dealer.
•
To avoid sulfurization, it is strongly recommended not to place the unit in a dressing room
in a public bath or hot spring bath.

Notes:
1. Menu items in italics appear only when the PlasmaView is in Installer Adjust mode. Picture and Screen settings made in Installer Adjust mode
define the “zero point” for normal, “User-mode” adjustments. For example, setting Contrast in Installer Adjust mode defines the white level that
results when Contrast is set to 0 in “User” mode.
2. When adjusting the Brightness (black level) for RGB and Component HD (480p/720p/1080i) signals, use the “User mode” Brightness control. For
480i and digital video sources, either Brightness control (“User” mode or Installer Adjust mode) can be used.

The PlasmaView has been designed to incorporate setup and calibration standards
established by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF). The ISF has developed carefully crafted,
industry-recognized standards for optimal video performance and has implemented a
training program for technicians and installers to use these standards to obtain optimal
picture quality from Vidikron video display devices. Accordingly, Vidikron recommends that
setup and calibration be performed by an ISF-certified installation technician.

gamma setting helps to optimize blacks and whites while ensuring smooth transitions for

Unlike brightness and contrast controls, Gamma allows you to lighten or darken the overall
tone of your images without changing the extremes. All images will be more vibrant while
still showing good detail in dark areas.
The default Gamma setting of 2.2 is appropriate for most typical home theater environments.

5Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Regular cleaning will extend the life and performance of the PlasmaView. Before cleaning, be
sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
5.1
Cleaning
Do not under any circumstances use solvents such as benzene or thinner to clean the
PlasmaView. Doing so may cause deterioration or peeling of paint from the display or remote
control unit.
Cleaning the Display Panel
Body and Remote Control
Cleaning the Screen
Cleaning the Vents
Wipe the display and remote control gently with a soft cloth. In the case of excessive dirt
buildup, dampen a soft cloth with a diluted neutral cleaning detergent and after wringing
the cloth thoroughly, wipe the component and then dry it with a dry soft cloth.
After dusting, wipe the screen gently using the supplied cleaning cloth or another soft cloth
(cotton, flannel etc.). Do not use tissue or a rough cloth. The screen surface is easily scratched;
do not rub it or hit it with a hard object.
If you clean the surface of the screen with a wet cloth, water droplets on the surface may
enter into the product and cause a malfunction.
As a general rule, use a vacuum cleaner about once a month to clean the vents on the rear
panel of the display of dust buildup (set the vacuum cleaner to its weakest setting when
doing this). If not removed, accumulated dust can cause the internal temperature to increase,
resulting in possible breakdown or fire.
Table 5-1 provides some general guidelines for troubleshooting problems you may
encounter with the PlasmaView. If the suggested solutions fail to resolve the problem or if
you encounter an issue not described here, please contact your Vidikron dealer or Vidikron
Technical Support.

RS-232 Connection and
Port Configuration
Configure the RS-232 controller or PC serial port as follows: no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit
and no flow control. Set its baud rate to 115200, to match that of the PlasmaView RS-232
port.
On the PlasmaView, confirm that the Baud Rate is set to 9600BPS and that the ID Number is
Serial commands to the PlasmaView take the following form:

Serial Command Syntax
•
•
•
You can send commands in either hexadecimal or ASCII format.
ASCII commands are not case-sensitive.
Commands begin with the “Start of Text” (STX) character (02h or <Ctrl> Bin ASCII),
followed by the display ID (2 bytes), the command data and command argument (3 or 6
•
•
You do not need to send a carriage return after the command.
The default PlasmaView display ID is 01 (30h 31h). With most commands, you can also use
the “wildcard” display ID of “**” (2Ah 2Ah) in place of any value for the ID. However, when
requesting status via serial commands, you must use a specific display ID; “**” does not
work in these cases.
Avoid sending excessive status requests (also known as “polls”) to the
PlasmaView. Doing so may delay command execution or prevent a
Caution
command from being executed at all. As a general rule, limit status
requests to once every five seconds or only as needed to refresh a control
system display.
For example, if the PlasmaView ID number is set to its default value (01 = 30h 31h), send the
following sequence to set the contrast to its highest possible level (255):
