Before Using The Down Converter - Pioneer PDK-5008FT Technical Manual

4.4.4 Before using the down converter

Before using the down converter, please carefully read and prepare the following items, and then start your mounting,
connection and adjustment.
• Are all the accessories ready now? See the section tilted ''Specifications'' in Page 67.
- A remote control
- AA cells X 2 pieces (for the above remote control)
- D-Sub 15P cable
- AC adapter
- Power supply cable (for the above AC adapter)
- Velcro x 2 pieces (No need in case it has been attached to the plasma display and AC adapter).
- Cable strap (No need if it has been attached to the down converter).
- Screw rivet x 4 pieces (This is necessary only when the down converter is mounted on the plasma display)
- Rubber cushion X 4 pieces (This is needed when it is mounted on the plasma display (other than PDP-V402.)
- Binders x some pieces
• Is it the plasma display PDP-V402 that you are going to combine?
= If NO,
we will prepare the remote control satellite (JA-V15IR).
Explanation: In case of PDP-V402 the signal is transmitted from the remote control to the plasma display photo-
sensor (=the plasma display micrEo computer) to the plasma display RGB 2 terminal (No. 12 pin) to the down
converter to the RGB IN terminal (No. 12 pin) to the down converter microcomputer. Therefore, it is possible to
adjust the down converter without using the remote control satellite (The remote control satellite is operated
aiming at the plasma display's photo-sensor). In this case, the plasma display's remote switch is turned ON.
Note) In the following cases, it is difficult to receive the remote control signal:
-When the remote control satellite is connected even though it is PDP-V402.
-When a display with PLUG & PLAY function is connected.
• Adjust the white balance of the plasma display correctly.
See the section titled ''How to adjust the image quality and white balance'' in Page 155
• To match the actual resolution, we will have prepared a vertical stripe-alternating pattern in black and white for you,
which is similar to the test pattern for the down converter.
In this case, it is easier to execute the AUTO.SETUP, if the outer boundary of the image area is edged with white
color.
