Introduction
What is a Plasma Display Panel (PDP)?
A plasma display panel is the latest display technology. It is currently the best way to achieve flat panel displays with excellent
image quality and large screen sizes, that are easily viewable. The PDP can be thought of as a descendanf of the neon lamp and
it can be also be viewed as a series of fluorescenf lamps.
How does it work?
PDP is an array of cells, known as pixels, which are comprised of 3 sub pixels, corresponding to the colors red, green, and blue.
Gas in a plasma state is used to react with phosphors in each sub-pixel to produce colored light (red, green, or blue). These phos­
phors are the same types used in Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) devices such as televisions and common computer monitors.
You get the rich, dynamic colors that you expect. Each sub-pixel is individually controlled by advanced electronics to produce over
16 million different colors. All of this means that you get perfect images that are easily viewable in a display that is less than 5
inches thick.
160° - Wide angle range of vision
Your flat panel plasma screen offers an exceptionally broad viewing angle - over 160 degrees. This means that the display is
clear and visible to viewers anywhere in the room who can see the screen.
Wide Screen
The screen of the Plasma Display is so wide that your viewing experience is as if you are in a fheafer.
Multimedia
Connecf your plasma display to a PC and you can use it for conferencing, games, and Infernef browsing. The Picfure-in-Picfure
feafure allows you to view your PC and video images simultaneously.
Versatile
The light weight and thin size makes it easy to install your plasma display in a variety of locafions where convenfional TVs will not
fit.
The PDP Manufacturing Process: a few minute colored dots may be present on the PDP screen
The PDP (Plasma Display Panel), which is the display device of this product is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million cells. A few cell
defecfs will normally occur in the PDP manufacturing process. Several tiny, minute colored dots visible on the screen should be
acceptable. This also occurs in other PDP manufacturers' products. The tiny dots appearing does not mean that this PDP is defec­
tive. Thus a few cell defecfs are not sufficient cause for the PDP to be exchanged or returned. Our production technology mini­
mizes these cell defects during the manufacture and operation of this product.
Cooling Fan Noise (RU-50PX10/1OC/1OH/11 /11C/11H only)
In the same way that a fan is used in a PC compufer to keep the CPU (Central Processing Unit) cool, the PDP is equipped with
cooling fans to cool the Monitor and improve its reliability. Therefore, a certain level of noise could occur while the fans are operaf-
ing and cooling the PDP.
The fan noise doesn'f have any negafive effecf on the PDP's efficiency or reliabilify. The noise from fhese fans is normal during the
operation of this product. We hope you understand that a certain level of noise from the cooling fans is accepfable and is not suffi­
cient cause for the PDP to be exchanged or returned.
