Preparations
Checking the Accessories
The following accessories are included with the Monitor. Check for them. If any item is missing, please contact the dealer where
you purchased the Monitor.
• Remote control (RM-C575) x 1
• Remote control cable x 1
• Power cord (approx. 2.5 m) x 3 (Use the one matching the wall outlet.)
• Batteries (AA/R6P) x 2
Installing the Batteries
Put the batteries in the remote control as follows. If the remote control has become erratic in operation, change the batteries.
1 Remove the back cover.
While pushing the release lever on the cover, remove the cover in
the direction of the arrow.
2 Place the batteries.
Put the two supplied batteries (AA/R6P), noting the ª and ·
markings, as shown.
3 Replace the back cover as illustrated.
Make sure the release lever on the cover is locked in place correctly.
Precautions for using batteries
If batteries are used improperly, the liquid could leak out, causing a fire, injury, etc. or dirtying the vicinity.
Take notice of the following:
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix different types of battery as different types may have different characteristics.
• Place the batteries according to the ª and · markings indicated on the battery compartment.
• When installing the batteries, insert the · end first to avoid a short circuit.
• Use only the specified batteries.
• When you are not using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.
• When the batteries have reached the end of their life, replace them with new ones immediately. Otherwise, the liquid may leak
out, or malfunction may be caused by the leaked liquid. If the leaked liquid contacts your skin, wipe off the liquid with a soft
cloth. If the affected skin is left as is, you may get a rough skin.
• Do not throw the batteries into fire or try recharging them.
• The service life of batteries is six months to one year for normal use. The supplied batteries are only for checking the operation
and their life may be shorter. When the remote control operation becomes erratic, replace with new batteries.

Installation
Precautions
• When mounting the Monitor vertically, it is necessary to adjust the cooling fan speed to provide better heat
dissipation. Do not forget to perform this adjustment. (See page 23.)
• When installing the Monitor, be sure to use a dedicated Stand Unit, Wall Mounting Unit, or Monitor Hanger Unit, depending
on a particular case. Ask your dealer for installation.
• When installing the Monitor, refer also to the user manual for each option to use. Do not tilt the Monitor rightward, leftward,
or backward.
• Route the power cord and connection cables along wall or floor corners to avoid walking on them.
• For good heat dissipation, try to leave the following distances of space (minimum) around the Monitor.
• The ambient temperature of the installation place should be within the range of 0˚C to 40˚C.
• When installing the Monitor in a place, such as near the ceiling, the remote control may not work correctly because of possible
effects from the surroundings. If this happens, use the remote control as a wired remote control or move the Monitor where it
is free from these effects.

Notes:
• Do not allow the same image (pattern) to be continuously displayed on the screen for a long time; otherwise, the area on the
screen corresponding to the image may vary in brightness, leaving an afterimage on the screen. To reduce the afterimage, you
can use the White Back function (see page 22).
• The Monitor is manufactured using very high-precision technology, allowing for more than 99.99% active pixels, however, be
aware that only a slight number of pixels may be deficient or lit at all times.
• Do not install the Monitor in such a way that the Monitor and other AV equipment affect each other adversely. (For example,
if a disturbed image or noise due to electromagnetic interference occurs, or if the infrared remote control malfunctions, change
the installation place.)

Notes:
• When you are viewing XGA, setting the refresh rate (vertical scan frequency) of your personal computer to 60 Hz will enhance
the video image.
• When a signal other than listed above is input, a part of the screen may become void or an unnecessary picture may appear.
• Signals, though they are within the acceptable range of frequencies, may not be displayed normally, depending on the signal
type.
• Depending on the connected equipment, the Monitor may not be compatible with composite sync (Cs) or G on sync signals.
• When a preset mode signal is input, the vertical frequency displayed on the screen will have an “*” shown at its right top
position.
• When No. 7 to No. 11 signals are input, thin lines may happen to be hard to view on the screen, due to the internal digital
processing.

when you are selecting a screen mode.
• If you select a wide screen mode while viewing
conventional video programs of the aspect ratio 4:3, some
portions (edges) of the original picture will be cut off, or
deformed. To enjoy the original picture as it is, select
“REGULAR” while viewing such programs.
• If you place the Monitor in a tea room, hotel, etc. for
business purposes or public viewing and modify the picture
by using the screen mode switching (aspect ratio change)
function, this could violate the copyright protected by the
copyright law, which requires your special attention.
• If you make the screen very bright and watch programs
selecting “REGULAR” for a long period of time, the
Monitor screen may happen to be burned in. If this occurs,
watching programs using a wide screen mode for a while
will reduce the burn-in gradually.
Notes:
• When one of the following signals is being input, the aspect
ratio is fixed and cannot be changed.
Aspect ratio is fixed to FULL: When 1080i or 720p signal
comes in (through the COMPONENT input terminals)
When 480p signal (through the COMPONENT input
terminals) and any signal comes in (through the RGB input
terminals), you can select only REGULAR and FULL.
• The aspect ratio can also be changed on the Function
Selection Menu (page 18).

Adjusted settings can be stored for each signal type; therefore,
when the same signal comes in, the stored settings are
recalled.
• When adjusting the size, the size cannot be adjusted
proportionally, but can be enlarged rightward (or
downward) only and reduced leftward (or upward) only.
Therefore, it is necessary to adjust both the size and position
alternately to adjust to the appropriate size.

Serial Connections and Operations
When the Monitors are serially connected, you can control all of them at the same time (simultaneous operation) or control them
one by one separately (individual operation).
For individual operation, you have to assign an ID number to each of the Monitors.
For the purpose of explanation, we will call Monitor 1 as a Master and Monitor 2 and subsequent Monitors as Slaves.
