RS-232C Adjustment 5.5.3 Combination Connection When controlling/adjusting panels, it is convenient to connect several displays to one PC. By performing a combination connection and assigning IDs to the panels, it is possible to control and adjust several displays at the same time or separately. Connection method: Connect the panels as shown in the figure below.

Page 283: Screen Burning
5.6 Screen Burning When the same image is reproduced for a long period (still image, telop, etc.), the image is burned into to screen. It may be difficult to remove this image. Burning should be managed by making necessary changes in the video software, projection method, system configuration etc.
Page 284 Screen Burning 7 Standard Functions (Settings cannot be changed) 1 Auto Brightness Adjustment (still image detection) When an image that has little or no motion, such as a photograph or computer screen, is displayed for a long period, the screen may appear dimmer. This feature is part of the screen-protection function, to automatically adjust the brightness and protect the screen when an image with little or no motion is detected.
Page 285: Precautions On Connecting Camera Images
Precautions on Connecting Camera Images/Concerning frame delay (lip sync) 5.7 Precautions on Connecting Camera Images Connecting and using moving images that are nearly still, such as images from a surveillance camera, could damage or reduce the life of the panel. In this situation, it is necessary to set the image quality beforehand.
Page 286: Precautions
¶ If the cooling vents on the display are blocked, remove the obstacles blocking the vents. ¶ There is a problem with the fan. Immediately turn OFF the power and contact a Pioneer service center or dealer. ¶ An invalid operation was attempted. Check the input signals, connections and settings.
Page 287: Maintenance
Maintenance 1) Be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet before performing maintenance. Note If the plasma display is connected to a computer linked to a network, disconnect and reconnect using the following procedure. 7 Disconnect and Remove Hardware 1 Turn the plasma display to Standby using either the computer (RS-232C control) or the remote control.
Page 288 Maintenance 3) Screen (front protection panel) The screen (front protection panel) is treated with a special coating to prevent glare and is very delicate. To clean it, remove any dust then wipe gently with a soft cloth. Do not clean it with tissue or a rough, textured cloth. DO NOT use solvents such as benzene or thinner to clean as this could damage or discolor the display panel.
