1. The PlasmaView accepts “sync-on-green” and composite sync RGB
signals on INPUT1, as well as separate sync (RGBHV) signals. For more
computer signal compatibility information, refer to Computer/Video
Signal Compatibility on page 70.
2. Some Macintosh computers may require a Macintosh video adapter.
Contact your nearest authorized service center or dealer.
3. INPUT 1 supports the VESA Display Data Channel (DDC 1/2B) standard.
This standard provides “Plug and Play” capability; the display and a
VESA DDC-compatible computer communicate their setting
requirements, allowing for quick and easy setup.
In order for Plug and Play to work correctly, you must turn on the
PlasmaView before you turn on the connected computer.
