Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor  
burn-in  
NOTE:  
When you connect a computer to this monitor, attach the sup-  
plied ferrite cores. If you do not do this, this monitor will not  
conform to mandatory FCC standards.  
Attaching the ferrite cores.  
Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas plasma  
displays, Plasma monitors can be susceptible to phosphor burn  
under certain circumstances. Certain operating conditions, such  
as the continuous display of a static image over a prolonged pe-  
riod of time, can result in phosphor burn if proper precautions are  
not taken. To protect your investment in this NEC plasma moni-  
tor, please adhere to the following guidelines and recommenda-  
tions for minimizing the occurrence of image burn:  
Set the ferrite cores on both ends of the DVI cable (not sup-  
plied), and the power cable (supplied).  
Close the lid tightly until the clamps click.  
DVI cable (not supplied)

* Always enable and use your computer's screen saver function  
during use with a computer input source.  
* Display a moving image whenever possible.  
* Always power down the monitor when you are finished using it.

NEC has built-in several operating modes in your PlasmaSync PD  
Series monitor to help you reduce the likelihood of phosphor burn.  
These are called the AccuShield Phosphor Protection System. If  
the Plasmasync monitor is in long-term use or continuous opera-  
tion, use the functions available in AccuShield to reduce the likeli-  
hood of perceptible phosphor burn or to diminish its perceptible  
effects if it occurs. See pages 37,45 and 46 for instructions on  
how to use the Orbiter, Low Brightness and Inverse RGB modes  
of AccuShield.

To avoid damage and prolong operating life:  
1. Use only with 120V 50/60Hz AC power supply. Continued op-  
eration 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. Set the unit away from heat, excessive dust, and direct sun-  
light.  
4. Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small metal ob-  
jects. In case of accident, unplug the unit and have it serviced  
by an authorized NEC Service Center.  
* 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 colors whenever possible.  
* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct, sharply  
defined borders between colors.  
5. Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes flaws on  
the surface of the screen.  
Contact NEC Technologies at 1-800-836-0655 for other recom-  
mended procedures that will best suit your particular application  
needs.  
6. For correct installation and mounting it is strongly recom-  
mended to use a trained, authorized NEC 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.

Important Information  
Pour éviter le risque de combustion au phosphore,  
les mesures suivantes sont recommandées  
REMARQUE:  
Lorsque vous branchez un micro-ordinateur sur ce moniteur,  
fixez les noyaux en ferrites fournis. Si vous ne le faîtes, le  
moniteur ne sera pas en conformité avec les exigences des  
standards FCC.  
Comme tous les appareils d'affichage à base de phosphore et  
tous les autres affichages à gaz plasma, les moniteurs Plasma  
peuvent être sujets à la combustion au phosphore dans certaines  
circonsatnces. Certaines conditions d'utilisation, telles que  
l'affichage continu d'une image statique pour une durée prolongée,  
peuvent causer des brûlures au phophore si aucune précaution  
n'est prise. Pour protéger votre investissement dans ce moniteur  
Plasma NEC, veuillez suivre les directives et les recommandations  
suivantes pour minimiser l'occurence de brûlure d'image :  
Fixation des noyaux en ferrite.  
Installer les noyaux en ferrite à chaque extrémité du câble DVI  
(non fourni) et du câble dalimentation électrique (fourni).  
Fermez doucement le couvercle jusqu’à ce que les crans se  
clipsent.  
Utilisez le collier plastique pour fixer la tore en ferrite.  
* Assurez-vous de mettre en marche et d'utliser l'économisateur  
d'écran chaque fois que c'est possible lorsque vous l'utilisez avec  
une source d'entrée d'ordinateur.  
* Affichez une image en mouvement aussi souvent que possible.  
* Coupez toujours l'alimentation lorsque vous avez terminé  
d'utiliser la moniteur.

NEC a installé de nombreux modes dopération dans votre moniteur  
de série PlasmaSync PD afin de minimiser les risques de com-  
bustion au phosphore. Ce système de protection a pour nom  
Système de Protection Phosphore AccuShield. Si le moniteur  
PlasmaSync est en usage pendant de longues périodes ou en  
utilisation continue, veuillez utiliser les fonctions disponibles dans  
le AccuShield pour minimiser les risques de combustion au phos-  
phore notable, ou pour en minimiser les conséquences si elle  
apparaît. Référez-vous aux pages 37,45 et 46 pour plus de détails  
sur lutilisation des modes Orbiter, Illumination Réduite et RVB In-  
verse de lAccuShield.

noyau (large)  
noyau (large)  
côté de lappareil  
(côté du moniteur à plasma)  
Pour éviter des dommages et prolonger la durée de  
service de lappareil:  
1. Nutiliser quune source dalimentation de 120 V 50/60 Hz CA.  
Le fait dutiliser lappareil en continu à des tensions de ligne  
supérieures à 120 Volts CA réduit sa durée de vie et risque de  
provoquer un incendie.  
2. Manipuler lappareil avec soin pendant son déplacement et ne  
pas le faire tomber.  
3. Eloigner lappareil des endroits chauds, très poussiéreux et  
exposés en plein soleil.  
4. Eviter que des liquides et des petits objets métalliques  
pénètrent à lintérieur de lappareil. En cas daccident,  
débrancher lappareil et le confier à un centre de service agréé  
NEC.  
* Abaissez le niveau de l'image (contraste, luminosité) autant que  
possible, sans faire perdre la lisibilité de l'image.  
* Affichez une image avec de nombreuses couleurs et gradua-  
tions de couleur (par ex. des images photographiques ou photo-  
réalistes).  
* Créez un contenu d'image avec un contraste minimal entre les  
zones sombres et les zones claires. Par exemple, des caractères  
blancs sur un fond noir. Utilisez des couleurs complémentaires  
ou pastels le plus souvent possible.  
* Évitez d'afficher des images avec peu de couleurs et des limites  
nettes et clairement définies entre les couleurs.  
5. Ne pas frapper ou rayer la surface de la écran plasma, car des  
défauts risquent de se produire sur la surface de la écran  
plasma.  
6. Pour effecteur une installation et un montage corrects, il est  
recommandé de faire appel au concessionnaire NEC autorisé  
et spécialisé.  
Contactez NEC Technologies au 1-800-836-0655 pour d'autres  
procédures recommandées qui conviendront le mieux au besoin  
de votre appareil.  
7. Comme c'est le cas pour tout affichage à base de phosphore  
(comme un moniteur CRT, par exemple), la puissance de  
lumière baisse graduellement au cours de la vie du Panneau  
d'Affichage à Plasma.

I Power Management Function  
The power management function is an energy-saving function that au-  
tomatically reduces the power consumption of the monitor when the  
keyboard or mouse have not been operated for a fixed period. This  
function becomes valid when combined with a personal computer that  
is based on the VESA DPMS system.  
When power is not being supplied to the personal computer or when  
the personal computer and this monitor are not properly connected,  
the power management function will operate and this monitor will en-  
ter the "off state."  
Please see your personal computer user's manual for information about  
the power management function of the personal computer side.  
During power management mode the fan may stop, but this is not a  
malfunction.

2)Error Processing  
(1) When the communications interval is 4 ms or greater, the  
arrival of a subsequent Command 1 will be recognized. If  
meaningful data cannot be discerned at this time, that data  
will not be recognized.  
(2) When the receive data error, checksum error, and the re-  
ceive data could not all be taken in, ACK is not returned.  
Command 1  
Together with Command 2, this is a number that distinguishes the  
various commands.  
For ACK, when bit 2 and bit 3 are both 1, reception of a sup-  
ported command or data is indicated. When bit 2 is 0, reception  
of an unsupported command or data is indicated.  
Bit 0 and bit 1 should be set as described below.  
3)Returning an ACK  
When command processing exceeds 0.5 seconds following  
command reception, an ACK1 for which bit 3 of Command 1  
has been set to 0(during command processing) is returned  
every 0.5 seconds until command processing is completed.  
When command processing is completed, an ACK2 for which  
bit 3 of Command 1 has been set to 1(at the end of command  
processing) is returned every 0.5 seconds until command pro-  
cessing is completed. Bit 1 of Command 1 is set to 0 ; when the  
UA2 setting is FFH, it is possible to simultaneously operate all  
sets connected in cascade and as a result, ACK is not returned.

*1 Convert to 640 dots x 480 lines and display.  
*2 These signals cannot be displayed in the RGB3 input mode.  
*3 The picture will be shaky when the moving images of video games, etc., are input. (In this case set the refresh rate to 60 kHz or less.)  
*4 Only when using an I-O DATA graphic accelerator board.  
*5 Use a separately sold signal adapter (mini D-Sub 15-pin) when connecting to a Macintosh computer.  
For some models, make the mini D-Sub 15-pin connection using the included RGB signal cable.  
These signals are Sync On Green.  
*6 Make the settings to display these signals. The signals will not be displayed properly unless the correct settings are made.  
NOTE:  
* Input of a VGA or W-VGA signal is recommended because the display resolution is 853 x 480 pixels.  
For other cases, conversion is made to 640 dots x 480 lines or 853 dots x 480 lines.  
* 852 dot by 480 line signals are displayed with this resolution.  
* 848 dot by 480 line signals are displayed at a resolution of 848 dots by 480 lines when "NORMAL" is selected, and converted to 853 dots by 480 lines when "FULL"  
is selected.  
* At the time of video input, video signals derived from poor recording conditions may create poor images.  
* The sync may be disturbed when non-standard signals other than the aforementioned are input.  
* Multiple screens (2 screens) can only display signals having an aspect ratio of 4:3. *3 Cannot be used with multiple screens.  
* With digital inputs some signals are not accepted.
