Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor

burn-in

Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas

plasma displays, SLIM SERIES PLASMA MONITOR 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 Marantz SLIM SERIES

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 func-

tion during use with a computer input source.

* Display a moving image whenever possible.

* Always power down the monitor when you are finished

using it.

If the SLIM SERIES PLASMA MONITOR is in long term

use or continuous operation take the following measures to

reduce the likelihood of phosphor burn:

* 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 color when-

ever possible.

* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct,

sharply defined borders between colors.

Contact Marantz service center at 1-800-270-4533 for other

recommended procedures that will best suit your particular

application needs.

PDP Monitor burning characteristics

Regarding the subject titled, we hereby furnish you with the

following report:

Therefore, there is less chance of being a cause of difference

in brightness reduction among the cells. Even when the

fixed patterns are displayed, they generally last for a few

minutes. Since the same pattern is less liable to be displayed,

there is almost no influence toward burning.

1. Burning

The fluorescent substance used in the plasma module loses

its brightness with the lapse of lighting time.

This deterioration in brightness appears to be a difference

in brightness in relation to the surroundings, and comes to

be recognized as burning.

In other words, the burning is defined as follows: when the

same pattern (of the fixed display) is displayed for a long

time, a difference in brightness is caused around the lighting

area and non-lighting area due to deterioration in the

fluorescent substance.When the present pattern is changed

over to another one, the boundary comes to be seen between

the lighting area and non-lighting area due to difference in

brightness in the pattern shown shortly before changeover.

If this condition is accumulated, the boundary or burning

comes to be seen with the naked eyes.

If the fixed patterns tend to be displayed for a long time,

however, there occurs a substantial imbalance between the

lighting and non-lighting areas, thus causing a difference

in brightness as a result. In this paper, we offer you some

proposals of installation, paying attentions to the two points:

the reduction of difference in brightness achieved by

integrated lighting time leveling and the method of edge

smearing to make burning hard to be discerned.

The result from these proposals can, however, greatly

depend on the contents of images and the operating

environment. Therefore, we consider that it is essential to

take the suitable measures in consideration of the customer’s

operating environment.

Example of Proposal 1: The display position is moved

while the fixed display pattern is

changed over, or it is scrolled during

the display.

Example of Proposal 2: If possible, a pattern of

2. Secular change in brightness

The life of brightness, defined as the reduction to half the

initial level, is more than10 thousand hours on average.

Conditions: All white (100% white) input at an ambient

temperature of 25°C.

However, this life time is not a guarantee value for life and

brightness. It should be recognized simply as the data for

reference.

complementary

color

incorporated (for integrated time

leveling).

Example of Proposal 3: The fixed pattern and the motion

picture display are reciprocally

exchanged, in order to minimize the

display period of the fixed pattern.

Example of Proposal 4: During operation, the brightness

of screen is suppressed as low as

possible. For the display patterns,

characters are indicated not on the

black ground (non-picture area) but

on the colored ground (mixture of

R, G, B recommended).

3. Warranty period

Burning and faults in brightness and picture elements are

excluded from the warranty objects.

4. Cause of deterioration in brightness

A major possible cause of deterioration in brightness is

damage in the fluorescent substance due to impact caused

by ions generated at the time of plasma discharges.

5. Practical value for burning

The deterioration in brightness tends to be accelerated up

to 100 hours in the initial period. In the initial period, the

fixed display of patterns particularly tends to cause burning.

The practical value for burning is difficult to define in

concrete numerals.As described below, you are advised to

take proper measures to make the occurrence of burning

as slow as possible.

7. Proposed countermeasures for the plasma module

Since the PDP is a display that uses a fluorescent substance

like the CRT, it is a fundamental phenomenon that burning

occurs. Unlike the CRT, the PDP gives rise to deterioration

in the fluorescent substance due to impact caused by ions

generated during plasma display.

As a result of the above-mentioned improvements, it is

possible to extend the PDP lifetime and relieve the effect

of burning, but is impossible to realize the complete

elimination of burning so far as a fixed pattern is displayed

for a long time.

6. Proposed measures taken to relieve burning

So long as there is the reduction of brightness in the

fluorescent substance, it is impossible to avoid the

occurrence of burning. Therefore, to relieve burning, we

offer you a method of entering an image input that may

ensure reluctance to the generation of the difference in

brightness reduction among the displayed dots.

The images from TV broadcasting involve a high rate of

motion picture displays.

NOTE:

Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor burn-in

When you connect a computer to this monitor, attach

the supplied ferrite cores. If you do not do this, this

monitor will not comform to mandatory FCC standards.

Attaching the ferrite cores.

Set the ferrite cores on the both ends of the DVI cable

(not supplied), and the one end of the power cable (sup-

plied).

Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas

plasma displays, plasma monitors can be susceptible to

phosphor burn under certain circumstances. Certain oper-

ating conditions, such as the continuous display of a static

image over a prolonged period of time, can result in phos-

phor burn if proper precautions are not taken. To protect

your investment in this Marantz plasma monitor, please

adhere to the following guidelines and recommendations

for minimizing the occurrence of image burn:

Close the lid tightly until the clamps click.

Use the band to secure the ferrite core (supplied).

DVI cable (not supplied)

* 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 color when-

ever possible.

To avoid damage and prolong operating life:

1. Use only with 120V 50/60Hz AC power supply. Con-

tinued 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. Locate set 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 Marantz Service

Center.

* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct,

sharply defined borders between colors.

Contact Marantz service center 1-800-270-4533 for other

recommended procedures that will best suit your particu-

lar application needs.

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 rec-

ommended to use a trained,authorized Marantz dealer.

7. As is the case with any phosphor-based display (like a

CRT monitor, for example) light output will gradually

decrease over the life of a Plasma Display Panel.

9 FUNCTION

The RC2000MKII has the ability to “replicate” itself,

downloading all of its internal pre-programmed and user-

programmed commands to another RC2000MKII. This

button is used when you wish to “teach” another

RC2000MKII all of the customized commands you’ve

already programmed in this RC2000MKII.

Press one of these buttons once or twice to select a par-

ticular source component. For example, to set the am-

plifier or receiver to the laser disc input, press the LD

button twice within 2 seconds. Along with the source

selection, special functions may become available (the

DIRECT keys), as well as activating the transport func-

tion keys, so that you can now directly operate the laser

disc player from the RC2000MKII. If you wish, you

may even re-program the status indicators in the LCD

window to reflect your own particular function name

whenever that source (function) button is selected.

4 POWER ON and OFF

These two buttons are used to turn the main compo-

nent’s (amplifier or receiver) AC power on and off. We

provide both ON and OFF commands so that your A/V

system is remote compatible with external infrared con-

trollers, such as in-wall key pads, etc.

Here are the button names and their functions:

VCR

: Laser disc player

: Plasma Monitor PD4292D

: Video cassette recorder

5 SOURCE ON/OFF

This button is used to turn the AC power on and off to

any of yourA/V source components that have their own

remote control turn-on and turn-off commands, such as

TV, laser disc player, VCR, etc.

DSS/MD : Digital satellite decoder or mini disc player

AUX

: Can be used for an auxiliary source com-

ponent

TUNER : AM/FM tuner, or AM/FM tuner section of

a receiver

6 MACRO 1-4

Each of these 4 buttons can be programmed with a

“string” of commands, called a macro, to initiate a se-

quence of remote codes to achieve a particular result.

For example, a macro button could be programmed to

turn on the main system power, then turn on a particular

source component (such as a laser disc player), then turn

on the PD4292D, and then adjust the surround proces-

sor to the home theater surround decoding mode, then

activate the laser disc player’s PLAY function. This

means that by pressing one macro button, you can

achieve the same result as pushing up to 20 buttons in

sequence.

: Compact disc player or changer

: Audio tape deck, or digital audio recorder

: Amplifier or receiver control functions

: Digital video disc player

TAPE

AMP

DVD

Note: Press a function selector button only once to

select the LD player, etc.

Remember, when you press a function selector button

only once, the RC2000MKII will not send out a remote

control code to instruct the amplifier or receiver to

change to that corresponding input, but the

RC2000MKII keypad and DIRECT function commands

will provide the selected component’s specialized re-

mote control codes. Press a function selector button

twice within 2 seconds to change the function of the

amplifier or receiver.

For example, if you press the LD function button twice

within 2 seconds, the amplifier or receiver’s input will

immediately be switched to the laser disc input, and the

keypad and DIRECT function commands for laser disc

operation will be activated. Press the CD function but-

ton only once, the amplifier or receiver’s input will not

switch to the CD input, however the RC2000MKII

keypad and DIRECT function commands for compact

disc operation will be activated.

7 DIRECT

With today’s high performance A/V systems, it is not

unusual for each component in your system to have doz-

ens of specialized command functions. If we were to

duplicate all of those commands for each component

onto the RC2000MKII key pad, we could easily exceed

300 buttons for an entire home theater system, which

would result in either a huge key pad, or buttons of in-

finitesimal size. The DIRECT command buttons (4 on

each side of the LCD display, 8 total) work with the

PAGE buttons (4 pages for each source component) to

provide up to 32 dedicated specialized functions for each

of the 10 function input selectors. Each DIRECT func-

tion may also be provided with an alpha-numeric func-

tion indicator visible in the LCD display. You may even

change the displayed name of each function to another

name, if you wish.

We have provided 10 popular function command selec-

tor buttons, based upon the typical input selections avail-

able with most quality A/V amplifiers (or receivers) in-

cluding popular Marantz models.

The function button DSS/MD is a little different from

the others, in that when you press this button, the

RC2000MKII will send out a command to the amplifier

or receiver to switch to the DSS input, and then the

RC2000MKII keypad and DIRECT function commands

will be configured for DSS (digital satellite system) con-

trol. We have included DSS commands within the

RC2000MKII’s pre-programmed memory for RCA

brand DSS equipment. If you have another brand of

DSS, you can “teach” the RC2000MKII with the re-

mote control codes of your equipment.

F CURSOR buttons

Some components feature menus that are navigated with

up, down, left and right direction commands. The cur-

sor buttons can be used to navigate within on-screen

menus, for components such as amplifier or receiver,

PD4292D, DSS/satellite tuner, etc. These buttons are

also used for certain RC2000MKII programming func-

tions.

0 LCD window

G MUTE

The LCD window provides a wealth of information,

including function selection name, DIRECT function

names, learning and programming steps, as well as use-

ful indicators for battery status, and helpful indicators.

The LCD window features back-lighting, making it easy

to view when the room ambient light is very low.

For those components (such as amplifier or receiver, etc.)

with a mute function, this button can be used to mute

the sound temporarily.

This button is intended for owners of DSS (digital sat-

ellite system) or similar equipment, to activate the on-

screen programming guide, used when changing chan-

nels etc.

are conveniently located and contoured for easy opera-

tion, even in low lighting.

I OSD (On Screen Display)

Some components, such as an amplifier or receiver,

PD4292D, etc., feature on screen display for operation

and/or programming. The OSD button can be used to

activate the on screen display, or turn it off if desired.

B Ten keypad

Like a telephone key pad, the ten number buttons (0-9)

are used to enter numeric digits, useful for finding a

specific track on a CD, or to tune a pre-set radio station,

etc.

J LIGHTING

Press this button to activate the back-lit LCD screen and

back-lit keys independently SETUP mode. A quick

touch is all that is necessary. The back-lighting will

remain on for 3 seconds. If you wish, you can even re-

program the RC2000MKII to shorten or lengthen the

amount of time the back-lighting is activated when this

button is pressed.

C MEMO

This button is used to program your CD player’s track

memory, or to enter a VCR recording program, and can

be used to provide the MEMO function included with

other components in your system.

D CLEAR

K Channel up(▲), down(▼)

This button is used to cancel certain memory or pro-

gramming operations.

Press this button to change the tuner, DSS or VCR pre-

set channels to upward or downward.

E Transport control functions

L Transmitter window

These buttons provide transport commands for your

source components, such as laser disc player, CD player,

VCR, audio tape deck, etc., and are dependent on the

function source selected. For example, when the

RC2000MKII is set to LD (laser disc) mode, the trans-

port keys will operate the laser disc player’s PLAY,

STOP, PAUSE, FAST FORWARD, FAST REVERSE,

NEXT and PREVIOUS track functions. Change the

RC2000MKII function selector to VCR, and these keys

will then operate the VCR’s transport command func-

tions, etc.

Infrared signals will emanate from behind this window.

Simply aim the RC2000MKII towards the component(s)

you wish to control. You may find that the RC2000MKII

works fine when placed on a coffee table pointing to-

wards your A/V system components.

M Receiving window

Used when learning commands from other remotes, this

window is placed at the bottom of the RC2000MKII, so

that the two remotes are vertically oriented for easy trans-

fer of remote control information. Later in this guide

we will show you which of the RC2000MKII buttons

can be “taught” new commands from other components.

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Window

g LEARN indicator:

Visible when the RC2000MKII is set to LEARN mode.

Within this display, all operating messages (function

name, mode names, etc.) are shown. When a particular

button is pressed (such as a transport command, like

PLAY), its status will be shown in the display for 1

minutes. The display will continue to show the source

function selected continuously, however.

h NAME indicator:

Visible when the RC2000MKII is in the learning mode,

and function naming is being changed.

i PAGE or MACRO indicator:

This indicator usually functions in association with the

PAGE button ,, but also functions as the MACRO indi-

cator when tne MACRO button n is pressed.

a Function indication:

The selected source function is displayed, such as LD,

TV, etc., up to 6 characters maximum.

j e indicator:

Visible when the RC2000MKII is set the beep function.

b Status indication:

Installing the batteries:

The selected status of the present page, or other items,

is displayed, up to 9 characters maximum.

The battery compartment is located on the rear panel.

Please use only alkaline or lithium batteries, “AA” size.

The RC2000MKII requires four AA batteries. There are

markings in the battery compartment to show you the proper

battery orientation. If after installing the batteries, you

cannot see any indication in the LCD window when a but-

ton is pressed, re-check to ensure that the batteries are prop-

erly positioned in the compartment.

c Direct commands:

8 DIRECT commands are available in 1 page, up to 4

characters maximum.

d Battery indicator:

When the batteries are running low, this indicator will

become visible. At this point, it will not be possible to

learn any new remote codes, but normal remote control

operation is still provided (including the use of any pre-

viously learned codes). At this point, you should con-

sider changing the batteries soon. As time goes on, and

the battery power diminishes further, this indicator will

begin blinking. At this point, no remote commands will

be transmitted. This is your signal to replace the batter-

ies with fresh ones as soon as possible. Eventually, if

you ignore the blinking battery indicator and do not in-

stall fresh batteries, then the batteries may eventually

be totally exhausted, and the LCD display window will

be completely blank. However, any previously learned

commands and macros will not be erased from the mi-

croprocessor’s memory.

The RC2000MKII is supplied with a full set of RC-5

remote control codes in permanent (non-volatile)

memory. Even if the batteries are fully exhausted, the

RC-5 codes (used for Marantz A/V components) and

learned codes will never disappear.

We recommend that you use a quality brand of alkaline

batteries, for best results and longest life. Newly avail-

able lithium “AA” batteries can even provide longer life

than alkaline batteries, and are also recommended.

e Transmit indicator:

When a button is pressed, this indicator shows that an

infrared code is being transmitted.

f USE indicator:

For normal operation, the USE indicator should be vis-

ible.

RC2000MKII Basic Operation

USE Mode:

As supplied from the factory, the RC2000MKII is already permanently

programmed with many pre-set commands common to Marantz and

Philips equipment, as well as other brands of components that utilize the

Philips RC-5 remote control language.

If the “AGAIN” indicator appears in the RC2000MKII LCD win-

dow, it means that for some reason the command was not properly

learned. Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 above.

LEARN

LOW

USE NAME

In the unlikely event that an infrared command cannot be learned by

the RC2000MKII, “NG” (no good) will appear in the LCD window,

meaning that the command is not “learnable”. The RC2000MKII

has been tested for compatibility with a very wide range of infrared

remote control frequencies and data word lengths, but in some very

rare instances, it may not be possible to learn a particular remote

control command.

3. “LD” will be indicated within the LCD window, and the function

codes will be set to operate the laser disc player, press the function

button again within 2 seconds as well as changing the amplifier or

receiver’s input to laser disc.

Continue to “teach” the RC2000MKII the rest of the source trans-

mitter’s transport function commands, such as stop, pause, next, pre-

vious, fast forward and rewind, by repeating steps 3, 4 and 5 above.

6. Proceed to learn the numeric “10 keys” from the source transmitter

to the RC2000MKII’s 10 key numeric pad ⁄2 by repeating steps 3, 4

and 5 above.

7. For each additional function, such as TV, VCR, etc., repeat steps 3, 4

and 5 above. During the LEARN operation, if any button is not

pressed within 1 minute, the RC2000MKII will revert back to the

previous (non-LEARN) operating mode (USE).

• To make a function button learn a code, switch the input function

then press the button again.

8. After memorizing all desired remote codes, press the operation mode

button 1 with the tip of a paper clip, and select the USE mode. The

LCD display window will continue to display the USE indicator, and

all of the newly memorized codes will be available (see Figure 3).

4. Now you can operate the laser disc player. When a button is pressed,

the

symbol indicates that a remote code is being transmitted.

Note that for a particular source component, not every button may

have a command programmed for it. In that case, nothing would be

indicated.

5. Using the DIRECT buttons D-1 through D-8, PAGEs 1 through 4, up

to 32 different specialized commands are available for each FUNC-

TION, up to a total of 320 specialized commands (32 direct com-

mands times 10 functions). Note that for any particular function

selector, not all 32 direct commands may be provided and/or named

as supplied from the factory.

6. For example, the RC2000MKII is supplied from the factory with 3

pages of DIRECT commands for the LD (laser disc) function. To

change pages, press the page direction ᮤ or ᮣ buttons 8:

At this point, you may wish to put this guide aside temporarily, and

begin using the RC2000MKII with your A/V system. If you already

have any Marantz components, or Philips and/or other brands of com-

ponents that use the RC-5 remote control language, you can begin

controlling those components with the RC2000MKII right away. Take

some time to become comfortable with the operation of the

RC2000MKII. We think that its intuitive key pad layout and easy to

read LCD window will permit you to quickly become familiar with

its operation.

USE NAME

For any button for which a new code was not learned, the factory

programmed RC-5 code will still transmitte as usual.

If you do not have any Marantz or other brands of components that

use the Philips RC-5 remote control language, then you may wish to

proceed to the next section, which will describe the steps necessary

to “teach” your RC2000MKII remote codes from other components

you may have in your system.

Note: POWER ON/OFF 4 code can be learned regardless of the

function button selection:

Programming the DIRECT mode buttons 7:

The following example will show how to memorize the SIDE-A function

command of another brand of laser disc player into the D1 direct button.

1. Using a sharp point (such as the tip of a paper clip), press the opera-

tion MODE button 1 to switch the RC2000MKII to LEARN mode.

2. Place the laser disc player’s supplied infrared remote controller so

that its transmitter window is facing the infrared sensor window of

the RC2000MKII about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.

3. Press the LD function button 9 on the RC2000MKII.

4. Using the direct function page keys ᮤ and ᮣ 8, set the direct func-

tion to Page 1. Press the D-1 button 7 on the RC2000MKII.

LEARN mode:

The RC2000MKII has the ability to learn remote codes for just about any

component in your A/V system. If the original component was supplied

with an infrared remote control, its commands can be learned by the

RC2000MKII. If you have another brand of laser disc player, for exam-

ple, you can program the RC2000MKII with its codes.

For example, we’ll show you how to “teach” the RC2000MKII com-

mands from another brand of laser disc player.

1. Using a sharp point (such as the tip of a paper clip), press the opera-

tion MODE button 1. Within the LCD display, the LEARN indica-

tor will begin blinking.

2. Place the laser disc player’s supplied infrared remote controller so

that its transmitter window (usually at the top) is facing the infrared

sensor window of the RC2000MKII (at the bottom), about 5 cm (2

inches) apart.

3. Press the LD function button on the RC2000MKII.

4. Press the play button ⁄5 on the RC2000MKII.

5. Press and hold the corresponding SIDE-A button on the laser disc

player’s remote transmitter until the “OK” indicator appears in the

RC2000MKII LCD window or beep sounds emit. The RC2000MKII

changes to the RENAME mode automatically as next step. A func-

tion name of the DIRECT function button is blinked, you can re-

name this blinking function name. You input the desired letter or

number with the ten keypad. (See the table in step 3 of the next

procedure to referece.) If you need not to rename, press the OK

button and other button except the ten keypad.

6. Now, proceed to program the other commands from the laser disc

player’s remote transmitter to the other DIRECT function buttons

(D2-D8). When you have “taught” all 8 direct functions for Page 1,

press the page direction key ᮣ 8 to go to Page 2, and you can pro-

gram more direct function keys.

7. After memorizing all codes to all DIRECT function buttons, press

the operation MODE button 1 with the tip of a paper clip and return

the RC2000MKII to the USE mode. Now, the newly memorized

codes are usable from the RC2000MKII.

If you wish, you can re-write the names for each function name, status

name, and the direct function command names as follows:

For our example, you can change the LCD display window indication

from “LD” to “LV-520” (which is the model number for a Marantz laser

disc player). Remember, you can re-name a function selector button with

a new name of up to six characters of letters and numbers in any combi-

nation.

How to re-write the STATUS name:

Using the same steps as outlined above, you can re-write the 9 character

status name. During step 5 above, by pressing the up and down cursor

keys ⁄6 the left side of the status indicator begins blinking, and you can

change its display according to the same method outlined above, using

the 10 keypad character generator. Remember, to confirm each character

change, use the cursor keys ᮤ and ᮣ. As above, when you change the

direct function page by pressing the page direction keys 8, this will con-

firm the re-written characters in place as well for the page you just fin-

ished re-naming. You have up to 9 letters, numbers or other characters

available for each status name.

How to re-write the DIRECT function button names:

You can change the name for each of the 8 direct function buttons by

using the steps described above to change main function name and status

name. Remember, each main function has 8 direct function buttons on

each of the 4 pages, so you have up to 32 direct functions that can be re-

named, if you wish, for each of the 10 main function selection buttons

9. You have up to 4 characters available for each direct function button

name.

After completing all re-writing of any of the names, press the OK button

within the cursor keys F, or switch to another function button (such as

CD). If, during re-naming, a button has not been pressed for 1 minutes,

the RC2000MKII will revert to the prior operating mode (USE) auto-

matically.

1. Using the tip of a paper clip, press the operation MODE button 1

until the NAME indicator appears and begins to blink in the LCD

window.

If re-writing of all of the desired direct mode functions has been com-

pleted, use the pen tip to press the operation MODE button 1, and select

the “USE” mode. Now, all of the re-written names are available for use.

2. Choose a button that you wish to re-name, in this case, press the

“LD” function button 9. In the LCD window, the first character of

the six function character display indicators starts blinking “A”, which

is the first letter of the alphabet.

3. Choose the desired letter or number by pressing the 10 keypad but-

tons B. Each 10 keypad button has 4 characters attached to it as

follows:

How to clear (erase) the memorized codes

(and any re-written names):

The RC2000MKII has a high capacity RAM, which ordinarily will allow

the learning of several hundred remote codes (and their associated new

names, if desired). However, due to the fact that some remote codes oc-

cupy more memory space than others, it is possible that the available

RAM fills up completely, and the “FULL” indicator appears in the LCD

window. In this case, it will not be possible to learn any new remote

codes without first deleting some or all of the previously learned remote

codes and/or re-written names. There are 4 ways to erase learned remote

codes from memory:

10 key pad button Press, press again, press again, etc.

1 → A → B → C → 1 →

2 → D → E → F → 2 →

3 → G → H → I → 3 →

4 → J → K → L → 4 →

5 → M → N → O → 5 →

6 → P → Q → R → 6 →

7 → S → T → U → 7 →

8 → V → W → X → 8 →

9 → Y → Z → / → 9 →

........etc.

• Erasing by button(s)

• Erasing by DIRECT button(s)

• Erasing by function(s)

• Erasing all memory contents (complete erasure)

•• Note that the factory-programmed RC-5 codes are not stored in

RAM, and are therefore not erasable.

0 → + → — → SPACE → , → ’→ 0 ........etc.

For any of these memory erasure options, you must first set the

RC2000MKII to LEARN mode.

So, in the above example, by pressing the 10 keypad number 4 four times,

you get the letter “L” to appear in the display (see Figure 4).

Erasing the memory assigned to a particular button:

Press and hold the CLEAR button ⁄4 and press the button that you wish to

erase 2 times. The code previously learned by that button will be erased,

and will then be either empty, or the original factory provided RC-5 code

will re-appear in its place.

USE NAME

4. You use the cursor buttons ᮤ and ᮣ F to move to the next character

in the display. By pressing the right cursor button ᮣ, the letter “L”

is confirmed in the first character space in the LCD window and the

next character position begins blinking. If you wish to erase a previ-

ously memorized character, position the cursor over the character

and put the SPACE character in its place (the SPACE character is ten

key pad number 0 pressed four times, from the above character chart).

5. Continuing along, re-write the remaining letters “V”, “–”, “5”, “2”,

and “0”. By pressing the cursor keys ᮤ and ᮣ, each character is

confirmed in place. When you go to other DIRECT function pages

by using the page function keys 8, characters in the previous page

are also confirmed in place.

The name re-writing operation must be done on a function by func-

tion basis, that is, re-write the names for all of the LD direct func-

tions, then switch to another function such asVCR, and begin the re-

writing process anew to re-name theVCR direct function commands.

Advanced Programming Techniques

All codes and names which were previously memorized for each of the

functions (such as TV, LD, VCR, etc.) in pages can be erased. Press and

hold the CLEAR button D and press the < or > button 8 2 times. You

Macro mode:

The word “macro” is used to describe a series of specific steps carried

out in sequence. For example, a word processing program can use mac-

ros to carry out common repetitive typing tasks. During the day to day

operation of an A/V system, you might find yourself pressing the same

combination of remote control buttons often.

The RC2000MKII features the ability to “learn” a sequence of infrared

commands, and “assign” that sequence to a single button, called a MACRO

button 6. Then, when you want to achieve a specific result, you can

activate a macro button to begin sending out a series of commands. For

example, suppose you wish to activate your A/V system, and watch a

movie on laser disc. A single macro button could send out the following

commands in this suggested sequence:

Figure 5

NAME

•

Turn the main amp power on, then turn the TV power on, then switch

the TV to the AUX video input, then change the amp to the laser disc

(LD) input, then turn the LD player power on, then activate the LD

play command, then set the amp surround sound mode to Dolby Pro

Logic.

Erasing the memory assigned to each function command set:

All codes and names which were previously memorized for each of the

functions (such as TV, LD, VCR, etc.) can be erased.

Press and hold the CLEAR button D, and press the function button that

you want to erase 2 times. You will see the “FNC - CLR?” (function -

clear?) indication in the LCD window (see Figure 6).

The above 7 step sequence can be programmed into a single macro but-

ton, and can be used anytime you want to watch a LD movie. Other

macro functions could be used for CD listening, or any other sequence of

steps that you regularly perform while controlling your A/V system.

Macro commands are available when the RC2000MKII is set to either

USE modes.

Figure 6

To program a macro, first identify which commands you wish to memo-

rize, and note if any commands must be in a specific order (for example,

before you can activate an amplifier’s surround mode, the amp must first

grammed, two additional digits (with a decimal in between) become vis-

ible at the end of the status line, showing the timing value for each step

(see Figure 10).

If you wish to finalize the complete erasure process, press the OK button

within the cursor keys F. If you do not wish to proceed with the com-

plete erasure process, simply press any key other than OK. Remember,

the RC-5 codes as supplied from the factory cannot be erased from

3. Press the command buttons in the desired sequence. When you press

a command button to be learned into the macro sequence, its name

will appear within the LCD window. Every time you press another

remote command, the macro step number increases one by one.

4. It is possible during macro programming to adjust the timing of the

interval between several macro steps. Using the cursor keys ⁄6, the

interval between macro playback steps can be increased or decreased

in 1/2 second steps, over the range beginning at 1/2 second up to 10

seconds. For example, when the indicator shows “0.5 SEC”, if you

press the ᮤ direction key, the interval time would change to 10 sec-

onds, then with another press of the ᮤ direction key, it would change

to 9.5 seconds, etc. Use the ᮣ direction key to increase the interval

time, and use the ᮤ direction key to decrease the interval time.

Some equipment may not be able to receive infrared commands in

one-half second steps. If after programming a macro you find that

the sequence was not properly carried out, you may wish to experi-

ment with different sequence timings to obtain the correct operation

results, by using the adjustment method described above.

During the programming sequence, just remember that if you wish to

activate a specific input selector on your amplifier or receiver, make sure

that you press the desired input selection button FIRST. Subsequent func-

tion button selections can be incorporated in the macro sequence, but on

playback, the RC2000MKII will only send out a function selection infra-

red command to the amplifier or receiver based upon the first function

command used in the macro sequence.

For example, you may wish to have a macro sequence which activates

the laser disc player input on your amplifier or receiver, and then have

additional commands in the sequence to instruct your TV set to switch to

an external video source to receive the laser disc video signal. During the

macro programming, make sure that you press the LD function selector

button BEFORE you press any of the other function selector buttons in

the sequence. You can then include any of the TV commands by pressing

the TV function selector button, later in the sequence. When this macro

is next used (played back), the RC2000MKII will send out the command

to change the amplifier or receiver’s input selector to laser disc input

(since its function selector button was the first one programmed into that

macro sequence), and will not subsequently change the amplifier or re-

ceiver’s input to TV (but will send out any special TV commands that

you included in the macro sequence).

Within each macro button, up to 20 steps can be memorized. In the

event that you wish to memorize more than 20 steps per macro, then

press another MACRO2 button 6 , and follow the above operations.

A maximum of 80 steps can be programmed this way. However, you

will probably find that 20 steps is more than enough to carry out

even the most complex macro instructions to achieve a specific home

theater operating result.

Note:To AMP button is not include the above functions buttons.

Programming a macro under a function selector key:

If you wish, you can also program a macro that can be activated by press-

ing one of the function selector 9 keys. The programming steps are

similar to the steps outlined for programming a macro number button 6.

The following example shows how to program a macro under the LD

(laser disc) function selector 9:

(activate the main amplifier’s power on, switch the source to laser disc,

switch the amplifier’s surround mode to PRO LOGIC, switch on the tel-

evision, switch to the television’s AUX video input, power up the laser

disc player, and begin laser disc playback)

Note: To memorize the cursor button F, press and hold the

LIGHTING button J before pressing the cursor button.

When programming macro steps, note that the following but-

tons would not normally be included in a macro sequence,

and are therefore not available for inclusion in a macro:

MODE 1, MACRO 2, CLONE 3, PAGE 8,VOLUME A, MEMOC,

CLEAR D and LIGHTING J.

To check to see which MACRO buttons 6 have been programmed with

macros, at the beginning of the macro learning sequence the four numeri-

cal (1 through 4) indicators at the bottom of the LCD window will show

a box around the number for each MACRO button that already has a

macro assigned to it (see Figure 11, which shows that only MACRO but-

ton number 1 has a macro assigned to it).

1. Press the MACRO 2 operation mode button with the tip of a paper

clip.

2. Press the LD function button 9.

3. Press the following buttons:

POWER ON, LD, AMP, direct function D-5 (PRO LOGIC selector)

in page 1, TV*, SOURCE ON, direct function D-4 (VIDEO input

selector) in page 1, LD*, SOURCE ON, and PLAY.

4. Press the MACRO 2 button with the tip of a paper clip. The

RC2000MKII will revert to the normal mode and save the macro

the step number you wish to change by using the cursor button ▲ and ▼

⁄6, and then re-enter the new command. If you memorized different com-

mands than have already been programmed, then the previous macro se-

quence will be erased and re-written over with the new sequence. To add

the new command, press the MEMO button at your desired point. To

delete the sequence, press the CLEAR button at your desired point.

During macro programming, if a button is not pressed within 1 minutes,

the mode will automatically revert to the original mode (USE).

When you have completed the macro programming sequence, press the

MACRO 2 operation button with the the tip of a paper clip. The “END”

indication appears in the LCD display window. When you release the

MACRO button, all indications will revert to the initial status.

There is one more important point to note about programming a macro

sequence. During a macro sequence, you may include more than one

function selection button to access some transport and/or other commands.

Depending on the macro sequence, this might result in the amplifier or

receiver’s function selection to be inadvertently changed as well when

the macro is played back. The RC2000MKII has a special feature to

prevent this from occurring, allowing you to access the special commands

available under each RC2000MKII function button during a macro play-

back sequence, while at the same time prevent the amplifier or receiver

from constantly switching its input source back and forth at the same

time.

switch the amplifier’s surround mode to PRO LOGIC, switch on the tel-

evision, switch to the television’s AUX video input, power up the laser

disc player, and begin laser disc playback).

2. The macro sequence will begin, and the remote control codes will be

sent from the RC2000MKII and the display will show the names of

the transmitted codes.

3. When the macro transmit sequence has ended, the RC2000MKII will

return to the same mode before the macro function was initiated.

1. Press the MACRO 2 operation mode button with the tip of a paper

clip.

2. Press one of the MACRO buttons (1 through 4).

3. Press the following buttons:

POWER ON, LD, AMP, direct function D-2 (PRO LOGIC mode),

LD*, SOURCE ON, and PLAY.

Now that we’ve explained how to program a macro, perhaps

the following suggested example can help you become more

familiar with the process:

4. Press the MACRO 2 button with the tip of a paper clip. The

RC2000MKII will revert to the normal mode.

5. To execute the new macro sequence, press the appropriate MACRO

button (1 through 4) that you chose at the beginning of the above

programming sequence.

(to switch the RC2000MKII to CD, then initiate CD playback, and go to

track 3 on the CD)

6. RC2000MKII will transmit the programmed code.

1. Press the MACRO x operation mode button with the tip of a paper

clip.

2. Press one of the MACRO buttons (1 through 4).

3. Press the following buttons:

Duplicating the memory contents of one RC2000MKII to another

RC2000MKII.

For a complete home theater system, with numerous components from

many different manufacturers, you may find that you have stored dozens,

even hundreds of different codes, along with specialized names, macros,

etc. We have provided a very quick and simple procedure that allows you

to download the entire customized memory contents of one RC2000MKII

remote control into another, fresh RC2000MKII.

Note that this sequence will operate a Marantz CD player (or any other

CD player equipped with the RC-5 remote control language). If you

have another brand of CD player, you may wish to check its owner’s

manual to see if direct track selection is possible via remote, or if the

macro sequence needs to be adjusted according to the programming steps

required by your CD player.

5. It the source RC2000MKII’s memory contents are at or near full

capacity, the copying process will take about 3 minutes. After com-

pletion of the copying (cloning) process, press the CLONE button

3 on both RC2000MKII’s with the tip of a paper clip, and select the

OFF mode.

To“clone”(duplicate) the memory contents of one RC2000MKII

into another RC2000MKII, please follow these steps:

1. Place the source RC2000MKII (the one with all of the customized

commands, names, macros, macro sequences, and the like) with its

infrared transmitter window L facing the infrared sensor M of an-

other “fresh” RC2000MKII (5 cm, or 2 inches apart).

2. Press the CLONE button 3 of the source RC2000MKII with the tip

of a paper clip, and select “CLONE TX” (clone transmit) mode (see

Figure 20).

Then, you’ll have two identically programmed RC2000MKII remotes,

one of which can again be used as your system’s primary remote

control, and you’ll have the added confidence of knowing that in the

event of inadvertent programming (or memory contents being cleared

somehow), you can simply retrieve the “backup” RC2000MKII that

you’ve safely tucked away, and within minutes restore the program-

ming contents of the original RC2000MKII with your customized

configuration.

Other Functions

The Marantz RC2000MKII includes the ability to tailor the light-

ing features according to your preferences. As supplied from

the factory, the RC2000MKII has a lighting features (and light-

ing timings):

1. The lighting time is set at the factory for a period of 2 seconds which

you can change if you prefer a different lighting time. If you wish to

maximize battery life, you can defeat the lighting function entirely.

There is also a lighting button J, so that in any light situations, you

can activate the backlighting feature. The lighting time in this case

is set at the factory for a period of 2 seconds, which you can also

change. If you wish to conserve battery power, you can de-activate

the lighting function entirely.

3. Press the CLONE button 3 of the learning (receiving) RC2000MKII

with the tip of a paper clip or a similar object, and select “CLONE

RX” (clone receive mode). Then press the PLAY button E.

RC-5 Shipped destination:

As mentioned earlier in this guide, the RC2000MKII is provided with

many commands from the factory with infrared codes conforming to the

Philips RC-5 remote control language (used by Marantz, Philips, and

some other companies). We have provided two different RC-5 command

code sets in the RC2000MKII, according to the local requirements of

different markets and the different types of remote control codes used in

those markets. One code set is for North American (US) users, while the

other code set is for REST users. Your RC2000MKII has been set at the

factory for US (United States) codes. It can be easily changed, if you

wish.

4. Press the source RC2000MKII’s transport control PLAY E button

to begin the infrared data transmission sequence. If you wish to

duplicate only 1 to 8 function’s memory, press function button(s)

you wish before pressing the PLAY button. Now the “LEARN”

indicator starts to blink. (see Figure 23)

Figure 22

Set-Up:

To change the lighting time(s), or the destination setting, please follow

these steps:

•

Select the SETUP mode, by holding the MEMO button C and at the

same time press the OK button within the cursor keys ⁄6. (see Figures

26 and 27)

Figure 26

Figure 27

After all bars are lit up on both displays, “TX OK” (transmission OK)

will appear in the source RC2000MKII’s LCD window, and “RX OK”

(reception OK) will appear in the “cloned” RC2000MKII’s LCD win-

dow, confirming the end of the copying process (see Figures 24 and 25).

Please be sure that, during the copying process, neither RC2000MKII is

physically disturbed (ideally, they should be placed on a table or other

surface, and not hand-held during the copying process). If, for some

reason, the copying process was interrupted, the “clone” RC2000MKII’s

LCD display window will indicate “RX NG” (reception no good). Sim-

ply begin the clone process anew by repeating the above steps.

Note: The cloning is available between the same remote control

unit series only therefore the RC2000MKII cannot be cloned by

RC2000.

LAMP - Lighting function ON or OFF and TIME

Direct Command Functions Listing

Press the D-5 direct function button, and you can then set the time (in

seconds) directly using the numeric key pad B buttons. A time figure

consisting of only 1 digit can be input by pressing the figure then waiting

for 2 seconds or input “0” before entering a desired digit. You can set

time in the range from 0 up to 60 seconds (which would use up more

battery life than a lower figure, such as 3 or 5 seconds). “2” is set when

shipped from the factory. You can set “OFF” to input “0”.

BEEP sound

Within the RC2000MKII LCD window, each of the 8 Direct Function

buttons has 4 character label attached for pre-programmed remote com-

mands. These commands can be used with various MarantzA/V compo-

nents, or other components using the Philips RC-5 remote control lan-

guage.

You can easily replace the factory-supplied remote command codes with

different codes from other brands of equipment. Most functions that are

supplied apply to a wide variety of equipment from many companies.

The following list shows the remote code assignments for the direct func-

tion buttons, for each of the 10 main function selector buttons, as sup-

plied from the factory. You can add or replace function commands, in-

cluding re-naming them if you wish, in order to customize the

RC2000MKII for your own particular selection of A/V components.

The beep sounds when press any buttons.

The beep sound level can be set to decrease or increase by pressing the

D-6 button. The display indicates “+” indication and the beeps are sounded

by pressing the D-6 button. The “+” indication is followed the “+” indi-

cation as the beep sound is increaded; + → ++ → +++ → ++++

When the “++++” is indicated and the D-6 button is pressed, the mininum

level “+” is set.

Battery life will vary from user to user, if the remote is used constantly

or only occasionally, including the amount of backlighting usage. We

feel that you can expect the batteries to last about 4 months, based

upon 15 remote control operations per day (every day), and 3 lighting

operations per day (every day). If the remote is used more often, and

if the lighting times are set to longer times than the factory settings,

then the battery life may be shortened somewhat.

As explained earlier in the guide, the RC2000MKII’s sophisticated

battery conservation system will advise you long before the battery

power is fully exhausted, and will further warn you to replace the bat-

teries by simply becoming inoperative at a certain point. The custom-

ized memory contents and user-adjusted settings will still be retained

in memory. When you install a fresh set of batteries, the memory

contents are protected always, because the RC2000MKII use the non-

volatile memory. Alkaline (and the newer lithium) types are recom-

mended for longest battery life.

2) Error Processing

• When the communication interval is vacant for more

than 4 ms, thereafter a received Command 1 will be

recognized. If, at this time, meaningful data cannot

be recognized, that data will not be recognized (as

valid data).

• An ACK will not be returned unless the receive data

error, the check sum error, and the receive data are

all taken in.

Check sum

Command 1

Command 1, along with command 2, is a number used to

distinguish each command.

In the case of ACK, when the lower order 4 bits is FH (as

in 3FH and 7FH), this indicates that the commands and

data of the supported equipment have been received. When

the lower order 4 bits is BH (as in 3BH and 7BH), this

indicates that unsupported commands and data have been

received.

Communications Flow

External equipment

e.g., Personal computer

Plasma monitor

Unit ID 1 and Unit ID 2

Unit ID 1 and unit ID 2 are numbers used to identify the

equipment that is to be connected.

60H is used for the plasma monitor and 80H is used for

external control equipment such as a personal computer.

Running Sense

1) Unit ID 1: Indicates the equipment sending the signal

2) Unit ID 2: Indicates the equipment receiving the signal

Command 2

Command 2, along with command 1, is a number used to

distinguish each command.

Check Sum (CKS), Error Processing, and ACK

1) The check sum described below and RS-232C odd

parity are used together for a check of the received data.

The check sum is the lower order 8 bits of one frame of

sent or received data comprising the sum total of

Command 1, Unit ID 1 and 2, Command 2, Data

Length, and Data.

The plasma monitor regularly transmits a Running Sense

command at an interval of approximately 1 second.

(Running Sense command: 1FH 60H E0H 88H 00H E7H)

This command is used to recognize optional equipment.

The return of an ACK is not required when external equip-

ment such as a personal computer has been connected.

Note that destruction of this data is recommended when it

is taken in.

When various commands are to be sent from external equip-

ment such as a personal computer, the plasma monitor is

always receive enabled.

Note that when an ACK has not been returned from the

plasma monitor in 1.5 seconds, a resending of the com-

mand is recommended.

Limited Warranty for the Marantz SLIM SERIES PLASMA MONITOR

and brown outs, damages that occur during shipping

or transit, or damage which is attributed to acts of God.

Who is covered?

You must have proof of purchase to receive warranty serv-

ice.

10) Incidental or consequential damages resulting from the

product. (Some states do not allow the exclusion of

incidental or consequential damages, so the above ex-

clusion 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.)

What is covered?

1) Warranty coverage begins the day you purchase your

Plasma Television, and continues for a period of one

year.

2) Marantz America will provide in-home warranty re-

pair.

3) Marantz America will incur all labor charges for re-

pairs during the warranty period.

4) MarantzAmerica will incur all freight charges for war-

ranty repairs, both to Marantz and the return to the cus-

tomer.

We suggest keeping all packing materials for any ship-

ping that might be required.

5) All parts, including repaired and replaced parts are cov-

ered only for the original warranty period.

11) Commercial or institutional use.

12) Any other cause which does not relate to product de-

fect.

13) Burns or residual images upon the phosphor of the

tubes.

Note: Pixel defect

Plasma is one of the most advanced technologies for con-

sumer products. The panel is made by high precision tech-

nology, however some pixel defects may be found on the

Plasma display panel. We are trying our best to control the

quality in order to reduce the number of defective pixels. It

is almost impossible to have zero pixel defects, even using

the most advanced technology. This is not a problem only

for Marantz, but all Plasma manufacturers. Therefore we

have to note that the warranty does not cover the Plasma

display panel for pixel defects. We appreciate your under-

standing.

When the warranty on the product expires, the warranty

on all replaced and repaired parts also expires.

What is excluded?

Your warranty does not cover:

1) Labor charges for installation or setup of the product,

cleaning, adjustment of customer controls on the prod-

uct, and installation or repair of antenna systems out-

side of the product.

Before requesting service:

Please check your owner's manual before requesting serv-

ice. Adjustments of the controls and hook up guidelines

discussed there may save you a service call.

2) Improper installation, removal or maintenance, or fail-

ure to follow instructions supplied with the product.

3) Reception problems caused by signal conditions from

cable or antenna systems outside the product.

To get warranty service:

Repair must be performed by an authorized service center.

If you do not know of a Marantz authorized Plasma Tel-

evision service center, contact your dealer. If your dealer

is an authorized service center, they will arrange for repair.

If your dealer is not a Marantz authorized Plasma Televi-

sion service center, they will direct you to an authorized

service center. You can also call 1-800-270-4533 for an

authorized Marantz service center in your area.

4) Repair, attempted repair or modification performed by

anyone other than an authorized MarantzAmerica serv-

ice center.

5) Any product, on which the serial number has been de-

faced, modified or removed.

6) Warranty is void if purchase was made from anyone

other than an authorized Marantz dealer.

7) Warranty is void if purchased from outside The United

States of America.

Optimum performance:

For optimum performance and picture quality, the Plasma

monitor is only guaranteed up to 6,230 feet above see level.

8) Warranty only valid in the United States of America.

9) Damage due to lightning or power line surges, spikes
