10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the points where they exit from  
the apparatus.  
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.  
12. Only use with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use  
caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.  
13. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-  
supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or  
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.  
14. Unplug the apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.  
15. Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases shall be placed on the apparatus.  
16. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.  
17. Installation should be done only by qualified personnel and conform to all local codes.  
18. Unless this unit is specifically marked as NEMA Type 3, 3R, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, or 6P enclosure, it is designed for indoor use only and it must not  
be installed where exposed to rain and moisture.  
19. Only use installation methods and materials capable of supporting four times the maximum specified load.

Description  
The 500 Series high performance LCD monitors are designed specifically for the security industry and provide high quality display of video or  
computer signals using multiple inputs. Adjustments of standard monitor display parameters are made using user-friendly, on-screen menus and  
front panel controls.  
For viewing multiple cameras simultaneously in high-definition quality on the LCD monitor, Pelco recommends using PMVC4 and PMVR2  
multiviewers. The PMVC4 can accept up to four composite inputs while the PMVR2 can accept up to two DVI or VGA inputs. Both models can be  
mixed and matched and cascaded together (daisy-chained) to put as many as 60 images of varying window sizes on the screen in clear HD  
quality. This method eliminates the need of having multiple CRTs or smaller LCD monitors in racks to monitor security video. One or two LCD  
monitors and a number of multiviewers can accomplish the same end with less space, less energy, and more versatility.

MOUNTING  
The monitor can be placed on any flat surface (desk or table), or it can be wall mounted.  
For the 23-, 26-, and 32-inch models, Pelco recommends the PMCL-WMT tilt wall mount, the PMCL-CM or PMCL-CMP ceiling mount, and  
the PMCL-WM1A or PMCL-WM2A articulating wall mounts. The 32-inch model LCD monitor requires an adapter plate (PMCL-V200) to  
make these mounts compatible.  
The 37- and 42-inch models use a PMCP-WM wall mount or the PMCL-CM or PMCL-CMP ceiling mount. The ceiling mount requires a  
PMCL-VA adapter plate for the 37- and 42-inch models. Check the Pelco Web site (www.pelco.com) or contact a sales representative for  
available mounts as of the publication date of this manual.

player.

(Mounting Holes)  
NOTES:  
RGB is also referred to as VGA or PC connector in the video security market. We use the term RGB in this manual, in the menu, and on the  
remote control. The RGB connector is a D-sub 15-pin female plug. RGB is analog but provides a clear, sharp picture. It can carry either  
standard or HDTV formats.  
Component is not commonly used in the video security industry. It uses three RCA cables: red, green, and blue for better color separation  
and a superior picture over composite. Component is an analog format that can carry standard and high-definition video and is most  
commonly found on DVD players. To receive audio, you must connect the DVD output to the audio input.  
Digital Video Interface (DVI) provides the best picture. It is used in Pelco products such as Endura®, PMVR2, PMVC4, PL outputs, DVD  
players, and satellite boxes. Since the signal received and monitor are both digital, no conversion occurs to degrade the signal. Pelco  
recommends using multiviewers (PMVR2, PMVC4) with the 500 Series monitors using DVI. The 500 Series uses a DVI-D interface, so DVI-I  
cables will not work. DVI can carry either standard or HDTV formats.

Maintenance  
If the quality of the picture is poor and cannot be improved by making adjustments on the front control panel, inspect all system connections and  
cable runs.  
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not remove the cover or back of the monitor. No user-serviceable parts are inside.  
Refer servicing to qualified personnel, or contact Pelco Customer Service (1-800-289-9100 or 1-559-292-1981) for assistance. Refer to  
Product Warranty and Return Information located on the inside back cover of this document.  
CLEANING  
Gently wipe your screen with a clean camel hair brush or a soft, clean, lint-free cloth.  
Gently apply pressure to the screen surface to clean the display.  
Do not spray any liquid directly on the screen or the LCD monitor casing.  
Chemical cleaners can damage the screen or the LCD monitor casing.  
Troubleshooting  
Intermittent Loss of Video in PIP/PBP and Main Video  
Possible cause: In PAL, when using PIP or PBP, cycling through cameras (with one or more cameras out of operation) causes the monitor to  
auto adjust and locate the signal.  
Remedy: Check your input devices. If there is a problem with a camera from another input device such as no power signal or bad video, then  
correct or disconnect the camera or device.
