with ISF C3 calibration settings for day and night viewing, which helps ensure that the image
is setup properly for all viewing conditions. Best-in-class image quality is also achieved
through Gamma 12 which provides high color processing in a plasma display at 68.7 billion
colors (4096 steps) leading to increased details in dark areas.
Adaptable for any Household

a home, with a Complete Input Panel including 2 HDMI inputs with HDCP (High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection), which provides the latest in digital connectivity.
Independent memory locations for each input keep the picture and image settings stored.
Moreover, four additional memory locations are available to store multiple source settings
connected to one input. Also, ease-of-use features have been added, like the discrete input
select from IR remote so you do not have to toggle between input sources and complete RS-
232 control, which provide easy setup to control systems from AMX and Crestron.
