CAUTION

• To prevent injury and material damage, thoroughly read this manual and all labels found on equipment before

attempting to mount, install, move, or adjust the product.

• Do not install the unit outside or in open air. Doing so will lead to water seepage into the system, resulting in fire

or electric shock.

• Be especially careful when working around parts of the system that have sharp edges.

• When performing installation work from a height, take suitable precautions to guard against falling. Set up a barrier

around the work site to prevent accidentally-dropped objects from injuring persons standing or walking below.

• Keep all foreign objects out of the unit. Do not tamper with the unit, or fire or electric shock may result.

• Observe the following operating environmental limitations:

Temperature: 0 to 40°C

Humidity: 20 to 80%

• Install the unit only in properly ventilated areas.

Features

Features and Functions of the PDP-501MX Plasm a Display

• High-definition XGA w ide panel

The Display uses a high-definition XGA wide panel, which provides 1280 x 768 resolution with more than 980.000

pixels. This resolution is more than 2.5 times higher than that of conventional panels, and enables multimedia

information to be reproduced more vividly and accurately than ever before.

• Clear, high-quality im age

Provides 8-bit RGB in 256 gradations/16.77 million colors. A new exclusive technology developed by Pioneer eliminates

the pseudo-contour anomaly, that is typically observed in plasma displays.

• Unrivalled brightness

A brightness of 350 cd/m2 (white peak, for panel unit), which is the highest so far for XGA panels, has been achieved by

maximizing light-emitting efficiency.

• Flat, lightw eight design

The Pioneer plasma display monitor is also unrivalled in compactness: the 50-inch screen is only 98 mm in depth, and

weighs only 43.0 kg. It can therefore be mounted at locations where conventional displays are difficult to install.

• Supports a variety of signals from com puters

Full specification PC are supported in video modes from VGA (640 x 480 resolution) to XGA (1024 x 762 resolution). The

SXGA (1280 x 1024 resolution) mode also accommodates PC signals, although a summary replay approach is employed

in this mode. The use of a dedicated video card also allowed access to a display of 1280 x 768 resolution, as well. This

monitor also supports HDTV broadcasts*.

Note:

* To display HDTV images on this monitor, an HDTV decoder, additionally.

• Optim ized for industrial/ public-address use

•

An RS-232C interface is provided for control from the exterior

The combination terminal enables a single PC to control multiple monitor systems

The integrator mode enables more precise adjustments than ever before

A color temperature (white balance) switching function is provided for retakes, and a key-lock feature prevents

accidental or unauthorized use of the monitor

•

Multiple input and output terminals (four inputs and eight outputs) are provided

Installation Site Requirem ents

3.1 Installation Site Requirem ents

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 installation 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 will differ accordingly. When

drilling into walls, always remain aware of internal electrical 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) Horizontal and flat surfaces

Select a flat and surface place for instruction and attach mounting hardware parallel to the pace of installation. Install the

unit so that the load is evenly applied to the ceiling or wall, as well as on mounting components such as hang bolts.

4) Sufficient w ork space

Select a location with sufficient space for installation work. The installation work should be conducted by more than two

persons.

5) Nearby equipm ent

Air conditioning ducts or lamps located near the installation site may be subject to dust, extreme temperatures, humidity,

and condensation during installation. Take suitable measures to protect them.

6) Safe locations

Do not install the unit where it may be easily reached 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 at locations even just partially exposed

to the elements may lead to malfunctions or breakdown caused by any of the following:

• Water and dust

• Change 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.

Installation Site Requirem ents

9) Tem perature and hum idity 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: –10 to +45 °C

• Storage humidity: 20 to 90%

• Operating atmospheric pressure: 0.9 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:

• Never install the unit in locations that fail to meet the conditions specified above

• Make sure the unit is grounded

• Prevent condensation

• Do not allow water or liquids to enter the unit

10) Bew are of condensation

One of the chief problem sources during winter is condensation. Rapid temperature fluctuations can deposit airborne

water vapor inside the unit or on the screen, degrading performance. If condensation occurs, turn the unit off and leave

it off for one hour or so. It is also good practice to increase room temperature gradually.

11) Pow er requirem ents

• This unit functions properly when powered at ±10% of its rated voltage. High impedance characteristics of lines at

the installation site may distort the voltage output wave form, effectively reducing voltage. If any of the following

occurs, inspect the main wiring.

• Significant voltage drop between the switchboard and the plasma display

• Significant changes in voltage when switching unit power on or off

• When calculating heat quantity, allow for 600 VA of consumption per unit

• The in-rush current upon powering up will be approximately 25 A

12) Effectire rem ote-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 away from the display.

Depending on installation conditions, the range of the unit’s own remote control may be reduced by infrared emitted by

the screen.

The screen’s infrared intensity will vary, depending on the image displayed.

Installation Conditions

3.2.2 Calculating heat quantity

For power consumption, allow for 600 VA ( 600 W) 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] x 0.86 = [kcal/h]

Heat generated per display: 600 W x 0.86 = 516 kcal/h

2 Conversion to British Thermal Units (BTU)

[W] x 3.41 = [BTU/h] Heat generated per unit: 600 W x 3.41 = 2046 BTU/h

3.2.3 Product m ounting holes

We recommend using mounting hardware available from Pioneer. If you use other mounting hardware, attach 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 bolts with a torque between 50 and 80 kg.cm. Applying a torque beyond these limits may lead

to nut failure.

• Locations of useble mount holes are shown below. (Caps, or plugs, can be removed by turning them with a coin or

another device.)

3.2.4 Mounting surface w arping

The display section incorporates glass. Before mounting the product, perform the following to confirm that the display

is free of warps exceeding 1 mm.

1 Referring to the illustration below, diagonally extend string of maximum 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 x 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 values in both cases is 0, the distortion

is negligible.

7 Remove the unit. (This should be performed by more than two persons)

3) Transportation of the unpacked unit

If it needs to be moved, the unit should be lifted by more than two persons.

• Avoid moving the unit by dragging it on the floor.

• Move the unit slowly, taking care to prevent scraping or striking the delicate front protective panel.

• Remove the protective film only after all work and preparations for the installation site, including clean-up

following unpacking, are complete.

3.3.3 Tem porary installation using packing m aterials

The lower carton and pads may be used as a temporary stand for the unit.

Connections to and from the unit can be made after the side, rear, and front cartons are removed. At this point, the

power switch and remote control may also be operated, but this installation should be regarded as temporary.

Always secure the unit to the mounting hardware after pre-installation wiring and adjustments are complete. Never

attempt to move the unit while supported only by cartons.

Installation Procedures

3.3.5. Wiring

1) Connecting the power cable

• Refer to the section on Pow er Cord Connection on page 26 of the operating manual.

• For power source specifications, refer to 3.1 Installation Conditions, paragraph 11.

2) Connecting signal cables

(1)Connection to PCs

• Refer to the section with this heading in the operating manual, on pages 21 to 22.

(2)Connection to video units

• Refer to the section with this heading in the operating manual, on pages 23 to 25.

(3)Important Notes

• Use coaxial cables. As a rough guide, 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 reli-

able 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

• Be especially careful in selecting wiring lengths for permanent layouts. For temporary installations for occa-

sional events, this isn’t quite so important.

• Arrange and secure cables so they will not be subject to direct load or physical force. For temporary installa-

tions, securing cables with string should be perfectly adequate. For permanent installations, secure by more

reliable means.

3) Mounting the plasm a display

1 Remove the hole rivets (quantity: six) from the rear of the plasma display.

2 Mount the supplied monitor mount bolt assembly (three per side) to the mount openings at the rear of the display.

3 Loosen the upper mount screws securing the left and right monitor bracket 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 for horizontal).

Determine the desired angle, then retighten the upper mount screws for both the left and 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 degrees 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 x 30).

8 Connect cables to the display by running them through cable openings in the post COMP. If the cables are too thick

to pass through cable openings in the post COMP, connect them to the display directly or replace with thinner

cables.

When reproducing PC signals via INPUT 3 or 4

= ORIGINAL = 4:3 NORMAL = FULL = ZOOM =

NOTE: • During video playback, switching screen size to ZOOM or CINEMA WIDE permits scrolling the screen

up and down with the 5 and ∞ buttons (V-SCROLL function). The V-scroll function provides the following

variable ranges:

±25 steps on ZOOM

±15 steps on CINEMA WIDE

See “5.1.3 List of supported input signals.”

• Displays with “(TYPE)” appended, such as FULL (TYPE), will sometimes appear, indicating a simplified

reproduction.

3) MP Mode On/ Off

This accommodates video signal processing when reproducing PC signals. We advise setting MP MODE OFF for

still images and ON for motion pictures.

For noninterlaced signals (such as those from PCs) and for animation found in game software, striped shadows may

sometimes appear in the moving portion of the image. This phenomenon, known as pseudo-contour, results from

the plasma display’s tone wedge characteristic. You can set MP mode ON to reduce pseudo-contour, but the tone

wedge may become slightly blurred,depending on the signal.

NOTE:MP mode has no effect on 1024 x 768, 87-Hz signals (interlaced), whether MP is ON or OFF.

7) Setting the Clam p 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 to MODE 2. For

most situations, leave CLAMP to MODE 1.

Clamp pulse (a timing pulse necessary for intensity reproduction) is generated in two ways, “a” and “b,” as shown

in Figure 1.

(In CLAMP MODE 2)

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 mistimed, making correct reproduction of intensity

impossible. In this case, unplug the sync signal or set CLAMP to MODE 2.

In CLAMP MODE 2, the clamp pulse is generated by method “b” in Figure 1, whether or not a sync signal is present,

ensuring correct reproduction of intensity.

5.4 Integrator Mode

5.4.1 About the integrator m ode

1) Enabling Integrator Mode

• You must first release the Integrator Mode Protect,which is engaged at the time of shipment. The Protect should

be released only once to eudle initial adjustments to be made in the integrator mode immediately following delivery

of the unit.

<How to release Protect> In Standby, switch on power to the unit by pressing these three buttons on the remote,

in the following order:

DISPLAY button = MENU button = POWER button

(This procedure should be complete within three seconds.)

This releases the Integrator Mode Protect and invokes Integrator mode.

The Integrator Mode Protect release is stored in last memory. You do not need to repeat the procedure thereafter to

enter the Integrator mode.

2) Entering the Integrator Mode

• Once the Integrator Mode Protect is released, place the unit in Integrator mode by doing the following:

<Procedure> In standby, switch on power to the unit using the remote or the operating panel of the main unit, as

follows:

MENU button = POWER button

(This procedure should be complete within three seconds.)

3) When Entering the Integrator Mode

• The picture quality and clock adjustments (refer to the operating manual) made in MENU mode, except for CLK

PHS adjustment, are all set to standard positions (median values).

4) Data Adjusted in Integrator Mode

• Parameters for PICTURE, WHITE BALANCE, and SCREEN (refer to “5.4.3,” paragraphs 1) to 3) are stored in

memory by input function and signal. Up to four signal modes may be stored when inputting PC signals. When

adjusting five modes of input signals, the oldest adjustment data is erased from memory.

5) To Exit Integrator Mode

• Press the MENU button on the remote or on the operating panel of the main unit to restore the unit to Normal

operating mode. It is also important to plug in signals previously.

6) 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 previously.

(2) The Integrator mode is automatically disabled:

• 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 the video signals you actually use in the production run.

8) 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 colour of RGB can be adjusted separately.

(Adjusting the side mask momentarily causes the screen size to be switched over.) In adjusting the side mask, think

of how video signals develop with time and also of a balance in the brightness between the adjacent display sets.

NOTE:

SIDA MARK adjustment is unavailable for (4.5kHz x 60Hz or 33.75kHz x 60Hz) signal inputs.

Com bination Connection

5.6 Com bination Connection

This connection method is useful for operating and adjusting multiple units from a single PC. By assigning IDs (refer to

“5.6.2”) to each unit, you can control them either simultaneously or individually.

Example: Controlling and “staging” multiple installed units

CONTROL

ROOM

5.6.1 Connections

As shown below, connecting multiple units allows you to control all of them from a single PC.

1st unit

2nd unit

3rd unit

Com bination cable

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. General-purpose Mini DIN6 (straight) cables may be used as

combination cables.

Com bination Connection

5.6.2 Assigning IDs

When connection is complete, assign an ID to each unit in the system. This assignment is made on your PC.

Commands: IDC (ID CLEAR)

IDS (ID SET)

clearing an assigned ID

assigning an ID

IDS is valid only when no ID has been assigned yet. The lowest ID is assigned to the unit directly connected

to the PC, the next higher ID number to the second unit, and so on.

Example: In the case of four connected units (when assigning IDs for the first time from your PC):

Personal

Computer

Unit

ID=21

ID=12

ID=11

ID=22

Commands to

be issued

**AJY

11 IDS

**AJY

12 IDS

**AJY

21 IDS

**AJY

22 IDS

Issuing commands in the order shown above assigns IDs to the units in your system. The units should be connected by

combination cables, as shown on the previous page. Once an ID is assigned to a unit, the unit receives only those

commands bearing that ID. When issuing a command to a unit, attach the appropriate ID at the beginning of the

command.

For IDs, you may use numbers from 0 to 9 and letters A to F (case-insensitive).

Asterisks (*) may be used as in the following examples:

**IDC: Clears all assigned IDs.

*1AJY: Places all units having a second ID digit of 1 into adjustment mode.

2*IN1: Switches the function of all units with a first ID digit of 2 to INPUT 1.

Cautions about ID Assignm ent

Clearing an ID for any unit removes all following units from control from the computer. Issuing an <**IDC> command

removes all units from control except the first unit (the unit having ID 11 in the illustration above). In this case, issuing

a command of 11 IDS makes the second unit controllable from the computer. That is, assigning an ID to a unit makes

it possible to control the following connected unit.

KEY LOCK/ UNLOCK

5.7 KEY LOCK/ UNLOCK

5.7.1 Functions

In KEY LOCK status, the operating panel of the main unit and the remote control unit are disabled, preventing any

other person from disturbing the work in progress. (RS-232C commands in this status remain effective.)

Attempting to operate the operating panel of the main unit or the remote control unit in this status will display “KEY

LOCK” in the upper right corner of the screen.

This unit is factory preset to KEY UNLOCK, with the main unit’s operating panel and remote control unit both

enabled.

5.7.2 How to sw itch KEY LOCK/ UNLOCK

Two methods are available:

1) With the Operating Panel of the Main Unit (a hidden button is provided for this purpose)

Locate and press the KEY LOCK/UNLOCK button hidden in the opening between the STANDBY/ON and INPUT

buttons on the main unit’s operating panel.

This hidden button toggles KEY between LOCK and UNLOCK. Pressing this KEY LOCK/UNLOCK button while in

Menu mode, Integrator mode, or RS-232C adjustment mode automatically places the unit in Normal operating

mode, and at the same time invokes KEY LOCK status.

2) Using RS-232C Commands

Enter the RS-232C adjustment mode and perform <AJY>. Issue a <KLY> command to invoke KEY LOCK status,

or issue a <KLN> command to invoke KEY UNLOCK.

About the Pseudo-Contour

6.1 About the Pseudo-Contour

When images representing a series of different brightness or color tones (such as human skin tones) move at a certain

speed, they are sometimes accompanied by striped shadows. This pattern is known as pseudo-contour.

This phenomenon is an optical illusion deriving from the plasma display’s characteristic tone wedge, and is not found

with still images.

Using our new driver method, we’ve succeeded in significantly reducing pseudo-contour, making it possible to achieve

quality video, particularly for motion pictures.

However, this phenomenon may appear when

• MP mode is switched OFF for PC input

• A 1028 x 768, 87-Hz (interlaced) signal is supplied, whether MP mode is switched OFF or ON.

6.2 Cautions

1) If the display shuts down on its own and will not power up again for some time, an abnormal condition (parts

breakdown, for example) is the likely cause. Turn off the main power switch for the plasma display and switch it on

again after waiting several seconds. If the display shuts down, it needs to be repaired. If it remains powered up,

there is no problem, and you may continue using it.

2) Displaying the same images (still images, telops, etc.) for extended periods may cause them to be burned on to the

screen. You can avoid this problem by remaining aware of the software content in use, playback method, system

configuration, and other factors.

3) The following signals may damage the screen:

• Multifold-generated copy of VTR signals

• Copyright-protected VTR 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 to refresh. When you switch input between different

frequencies, a longer black-out interval is needed (approximately up to 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 as ambient temperature rises beyond 25°C. This is normal.

6) About the plasma panel’s screen-saver feature (Detection of still images)

Brightness will drop slightly when photo images or slow-moving images, such as those supplied by PCs, 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. This feature does not function in RS-232C adjustment mode (AJY) or in Integrator mode.

7) Software problems

We have encountered the following problems with the microcomputer software version 5435A:

• The still-image detector functions in RS-232C adjustment mode (AJY) = Make adjustments while performing

<AJN> every five minutes.

• The still-image detector does not function after exiting Integrator mode = Switch power off, then switch it back

on after exiting Integrator mode.

We apologize for these problems. You may compensate for them using the methods described above.

Maintenance and Cleaning

1) Unplug the Pow er Cord from the Outlet.

2) Cabinet and Rem ote

Never use solvents such as benzene or thinner, which can damage or destroy the coating of the cabinet or the

remote.

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 and thinner, which can discolor or render the screen opaque.

For cleaning, we recommend the following cloth and fluid.

Nam e

Cleaning Cloth: Wiping Cloth

Cleaning Cloth: Minimax

Cleaning Liquid: B4

Part Num ber

AED1174

GED-009

GEM1004

For light soiling, dust off particles, then lightly wipe with Minimax.

For heavy soiling, dust off particles, then wipe with the end of Minimax lightly moistened with B4. Once the surface

dries, wipe with dry Minimax.

4) Vent

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 main power on the main unit before

cleaning the vents.

Blocked vents can lead to dangerously high internal temperatures, resulting in malfunctions or fire.

5) Readjustm ent of White Balance

This 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.
