Dual System Component Input for NTSC/
Progressive
Connection to a DVD player with a component output terminal
makes possible high-picture-quality display superior to that of
S-VIDEO terminal connection. Also handles high resolution
component input (1080i, 480p), which will function as an
interface for high-quality images in future.
DUAL TUNER (SPLIT screen and SEARCH
screen function)
Two TV tuners are provided, making it possible to split the
screen vertically in two and display moving images
simultaneously on them. In addition, the channel search
function makes it possible to check, etc., on the program in the
back. Its convenience will be limited only by your imagination.
GLOW-IN-THE-DARK remote control
Makes it easier to operate the TV and other components in
low-light environments.
Lens System for HDTV
Adoption of a lens system for high-resolution HDTV that
faithfully reproduces HDTV 1080i signals allows highly color-
saturated images to be displayed at high resolution.
Whole Screen IR Receiver
The remote control sensor is installed behind the screen,
allowing you to operate this monitor with the remote control
unit in those installations where only the screen is revealed.
3D Y/C Separation Circuit
This three-dimensional Y/C separation circuit reproduces
clearer picture quality.
Multi-Point Convergence System
Thanks to new convergence system digital technology, not
only can the center of the screen be adjusted, so can an amazing
72 other points (full mode) across the viewing area. This makes
it possible to display clear images with no color distortion
around the entire screen.
The adjustment is easily done using the remote control.
Program Block (V. CHIP)
You can block selected programs based on the established
rating system for television and movies.
The TV Parental Guidelines are used to rate television
programming: <TV-Y>, <TV-Y7>, <TV-G>, <TV-PG>, <TV-14>
and <TV-MA>.
The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) guidelines
are used to rate movies: <G>, <PG>, <PG-13>, <R>, <NC-17>,
<X> and <NR>.
In order to block programming you feel is inappropriate, rating
limits can be set on both systems using the remote control
and a password.

INSTALLING THE MONITOR
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS:
•Keep away from magnetic fields
The picture may be distorted if strong magnetic fields are
nearby. External speakers should be set at least 2 feet (60cm)
away from the Projection Monitor. Electric fans and other
motor driven appliances and toys may also be sources of
magnetism.
• Bright light or direct sunlight will dull the picture. Position
the Projection Monitor so that the screen faces away from
windows.
• While the Projection Monitor is operating, it is cooled by
airflow through ventilation holes in the rear and bottom.
Therefore, avoid placing it in a location where the cooling
airflow is hindered (e. g. against a wall).
• Avoid places subject to extremely high temperatures or
humidity, or to temperatures of 41°F (5°C) or lower. Also
avoid dusty places.
• If setting the Projection Monitor on a floor made of soft
material, make sure that the floor will not damaged by the
weight of the Projection Monitor.
• Do not put the Projection Monitor on a surface that is tilted,
unsteady or prone to shake or vibrate. A shaky or slanted
platform is dangerous.
• Cover shiny surfaces (floor and walls) with non reflective
materials (carpet, rugs, wallpaper, etc.).
OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
Optimum viewing distance
10 to 23 feet is the range recommended for viewing comfort.
Adjust room illumination
Excessively bright or dim lighting may strain your eyes. Draw
the curtains if necessary to shut out direct sunlight.
CARE OF YOUR PROJECTION MONITOR
DO NOT:
• Do not use strong cleansers, solvents, polishes, or chemically
treated cloths to clean the screen or cabinet.
• Do not touch or scratch the screen.
• Do not fasten or place rubber or vinyl items on the Monitor.
• Do not stick adhesive tape onto the Monitor.
• Do not put any object on the Monitor.
DO:
• Use a soft cloth to dust the screen and cabinet.
• Handle the screen with care to avoid scratches or damages.
• Ask your dealer or a Pioneer authorized service center to
clean the interior of the monitor in your area if the picture
brightness is too low even with the max. level. This may be
caused by dust buildup inside.
Condensation and picture blurring
• If the room temperature suddenly rises (or if the Projection
Monitor is moved from a cool place to a hot place),
condensation may form on the lenses resulting in picture
distortion or color fading. If this occurs, simply wait a while
(with the power switch ON) and the condensation will
disappear.
• A gradual change in temperature can prevent condensation
from forming.

ATTENTION
The Projection Monitor Receiver will not function properly in
the following cases.
•An electrical discharge in the CRT.
•Lightning storms.
•High static electricity environment.
•Poor voltage regulation in the power source.
If the Projection Monitor does not operate properly, reset it as
follows:
1. Turn off the power of the unit with the 3MAIN POWER
switch.
2. After approximately 1 minute, turn on the power with 3
MAIN POWER switch and 4POWER button.
If the normal operation cannot be restored after the above
treatment, immediately unplug the power cord and call your
nearest PIONEER-authorized service center.
NOTE:
On rare occasions, an electrical discharge may occur inside the
CRT. It makes a short, sharp pop and either no sound is produced
or the volume level changes by itself. The SPLIT screen and
SEARCH screen functions will be cancelled automatically if an
electrical discharge occurs when this function is engaged.
