42XM4, 50XM5 and 61XM4 digital plasma displays.
NEC’s professional plasma displays provide enhanced digital processing, expanded
connectivity and exceptional reliability in any viewing environment while delivering
crystal clear images every time.
CRYSTAL CLEAR IMAGES EVERY TIME.
°Crystal ClearPanel/Driveprovides technology to improve brightness and contrast greater
than 100% over previous models and also removes false contouring (42XM4 only).
°Capsulated Color Filter (CCF) (50XM5 and 61XM4) and AccuCrimson Filter
technology produce true vivid real-to-life colors.
°Enhanced Motion Adaptive 3D Scan Conversion provides error free interpolation for
moving video resulting in a smooth image with greater detail.
°Enhanced Mass Area Superior Sampling accurately reproduces diagonal and curved
lines with less “jaggies” and also eliminates color bleeds.
°Multi-Field Noise Reduction reduces visible noise by looking at the video field before and
after the active video field and averages the fields together rather than looking only at the
active video field.
°Color Tune Technology allows you to adjust individual colors without affecting white balance.
°Advanced AccuBlend™ converts non-native resolutions to the resolution of the display.
°Enhanced AccuDevice allows for artifact and noise free video.
°Gamma 12 provides 68.7 billion color processing (4096 gradation steps per primary
color) resulting in details in the dark areas never seen before.
ADAPTABLE FOR ANY PROFESSIONAL APPLICATION.
°Complete Input Panel including DVI w/HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) input.
°IR Remote ID select allows units placed in close proximity with one another to have
different IR transmissions so only one unit is controlled at a time.
°IR Loop-through provides IR flexibility by allowing the plasma unit to receive IR commands
from other device remotes and pass them through to the device.
°Wider signal support including 1080p and High resolution PC signals.
°Enhanced Split Screen allows two sources to be displayed on the screen at one time with
multiple configurations and sizes available for both sources.
°Complete RS-232 control providing easysetup to all major control systems.
°Independentmemorylocations for each inputthat keep picture and image settings stored.
°Sleep timer for automatic shut off.
°Quiet operation (fan noise is only 22dB during normal operation).
°Multiple aspect ratio control allowing flexibility with today’s many source choices.
°High altitude flexibility is a standard feature (up to 9180 ft).
°Programmable timer for virtual self-running operation.
°Textinsertallowing textfrom another source (i.e. – Powerpoint) to be inserted over a
portion of the active source.
°Matrix solution capable allowing up to 5x5 displaysto be placed together to create one
large image.
EXCEPTIONAL PRODUCT RELIABILITY AND SERVICE.
°60,000 Half-Life provides 20+ years at 8 hours a day viewing before reaching half the
original brightness.
°NEC ranks #1 in product reliability and service according to Pacific Media Associates
2004 Annual ResellersSurvey.
°Low Power Consumption and environmentally friendly providing a large display that is
environmentally friendly consuming as little as 285W when in use and less than 1W when
in "Stand-by" mode.
°AccuShield Phosphor Protection system provides a comprehensive toolset to safeguard
the display from possible image retention.

*42XM4 input panel located at bottom of plasma.
*60,000 hour panel life is an approximate time for the display panel to reach half of
it's original brightness. The panel life is based on motion video as the input source
and all display settings at factory default. This time may vary if the source varies and
monitor settings arenot at factory default. The time given does not imply any
warranty beyond the products standard warranty.
