Pioneer PDP Technology Keeps Improving
And the Results Are Clearly Visible!
43-inch XGA Professional Plasma Display
PDP-433CMX
Unparalleled Bright High Contrast Accurate Color
Images Displayed with No Flicker.
The PDP- 433 CMX is currently the brightest plasma display and leads the industry
with its superior contrast and color. Because PDP displays are often used in
bright environments, the PDP- 433 CMX's high brightness and ambient light
management prevents the loss of detail and the washed out appearance
symptomatic of other PDPs. One of the main technologies behind this amazing
performance is Pioneer's unique Deep Encased Cell Structure. Compared to
the low rows of cells used in other PDPs, the Deep Encased Cells increase
phosphor area by over 40 %* and prevent light leakage from neighboring cells.
Luminous efficiency is much higher, so the screen is much brighter and clearly
visible under all conditions. *
compared to straight-type panels of the same size.

Greatiy Improved Bright Contrast Means
Ciear Dispiay Even in Bright Locations.
The exterior light reflectivity of the panel itself
has been increased by black stripes and by
improving the glass used to make the panel.
The Pure Color Filter reduces the reflected
external light component, resulting in bright
contrast that is over two times higher than
the previous level. You'll enjoy beautiful displays
even in environments exposed to bright light.

Excellent Contrast Under All Lighting Conditions
Superior Grayscale Rendering
Pioneer utilizes a technology called Advanced Continuous Emission Display to
achieve excellent grayscale rendering in dark areas, where conventional PDPs
perform poorly. 10-bit sampling per color pixel, rather than the usual 8 bits,
increases gray shades and produces smooth transitions from black to gray, with
grayscale rendering about 16 times better than other PDPs. This technology
eliminates the false contours (sharp edges where there should be smooth contours)
and inaccurate quantization seen in other PDPs.

Compatibility with a Wide Range of PC Signais
With a native resolution of 1024 x 768 , this high precision panel can accurately
display personal computer signals ranging from 640 x 400 and 640 x 480 (VGA) to
1024 X 768 (XGA). It can also support compression display of 1280 x 768 (Wide XGA),
1280 X 1024 (SXGA) and 1600 x 1200 (UXGA) signals. In addition. Pioneer's
proprietary scaling technology enables a circle to be displayed as a circle onto
1024 x 768 at 16:9 with 1280 x 768 signal input.

Achievement of the Industry's Lowest Power
Consumption (298W)
The PDP- 433 CMX has achieved power consumption of 298 W, astonishingly low for
a 43 -inch XGA-class plasma display. Standby power is only 0 . 9 W. It also has
a Power Save Mode that lowers the power consumption
by as much as 20 % below that of normal use. In addition,
the PDP- 433 CMX satisfies the standards of the International
Energy Star Program.* *
when optional cards are not used.
Slim, Lightweight Design Means Greater Versatility
For a 43 -inch large-screen display, the PDP- 433 CMX is amazingly thin and lightweight —
only 3 - 7 / 8 " deep and 69 lbs. 7 oz. Designed with industrial installations in mind,
an efficient cooling system allows for usage in a greater variety of environmental
conditions. This combination, plus its superior durability, makes it suitable for
a wide range of installations and applications.
Assurance of Long-Term Dependability
A variety of system management functions ensure safe, dependable, long-term use
in professional applications. These include:
• Three modes to manage and counteract image shadowing. While all PDPs are
subject to image shadowing, but the PDP- 433 CMX has three special modes to
manage and counteract it.
1. Linear Brightness mode decreases the peak intensity of high-brightness images.
2. Orbiter mode incorporates one-pixel-at-a-time movement of displayed images
at fixed intervals.
3. Inverse mode displays images as negative.
• Peak Pattern Detection System
This system also helps to prevent shadowing by monitoring the prolonged display
of still images and the concentration of brightness in any segment of the panel.
* Even so, displaying the same still images for long periods should be avoided as image shadowing or burn-in may occur.
• Smart Cooling System
Internal fans are activated only when needed, keeping fan noise to a minimum and
conserving power.
WHQL Compatibility and Easy Operation
Pioneer's plasma displays are the industry's first to receive the Windows Hardware
Qualification Labs(WHQL) certification of compliance. The PDP- 433 CMX continues
this tradition by providing Plug & Play drivers to support Microsoft'^'Windows'^’
and other operating systems. This is a display you can use with confidence.
•Compatible with Microsoft Plug & Play (VESA DDc 1/2B) An Auto Setup function allows automatic
screen adjustment with a single touch via the remote
control when inputting a wide variety of computer
signal types. To provide more punch into presentations,
there's a Point Zoom function that lets you instantly
expand any portion of the image to four different sizes.

Environmentally Friendly
All plastic parts are made of halogen-free material rather than the halogen type
fire-resistant materials generally believed to be a source of dioxins during
incineration. Metal parts have chrome-free plating wherever possible; we strive
to minimize the use of chrome to protect the environment and those who live in it.
Additional Features Installers, System Integrators
and End Users Will Appreciate
• Integrator mode permits precise white balance adjustment, as well as control of various functions
such as the Off Timer, Mask Generator, Mirror Mode, OSD Management, IR/key Pad Lock-out,
Unit Identification number/naming. Input naming. Color Temperature, Power Management, Baud
Rate selection and many other features.
• Bi-directional RS-232C external control interface and combination terminals permit central control
and management of several units.
• 2 X 2 Mode allows 2x2 multi-expansion display (similar to video walD without an expansion device.
• Reporting of operational parameters and the device status has been significantly enhanced. With
this communication capability, direct or remote diagnostics as well as control are now much easier.
Expansion Possible for A Wide Range of Uses
