Simplified wiring
Connections to a Pioneer plasma Television are
performed by a single HDMI cable.
No need to connect numerous cables from input
components to plasma television.
Even when a plasma television is wall-mounted, only a
single HDMI cable needs to be placed through the wall
(when a computer is not connected).
Flexible support when changing or adding new input
components, even when a plasma television is wall-
mounted.

PDP-linked operation*
When set to use HDMI Control function to link this unit
and a plasma television, the plasma television’s remote
control can be used to control this unit as well.
• This unit’s power on/off control can be linked to the
power on/off of the plasma television.
(To use linked power off, set the plasma television’s
power off control setting.)
• The plasma television’s remote control unit can be
used to change inputs on this unit.
* When HDMI control is set to ON /when using a
supported plasma television (see accompanying
table).

Support for plasma television’s image quality
control *
When HDMI Control function is activated to support
linkage on both this unit and plasma television, it
becomes possible to set this unit’s inputs to the same
image quality settings possible on the plasma
television.
* When HDMI control is set to ON /when using a
supported plasma television (see accompanying
table).

Analog-to-HDMI conversion and scaling
function to 576p/720p/1080i
Analog video signals (composite/S-video/Component)
from other video components are converted to digital
and output via HDMI.
Analog signals can be scaled (up/down) to 576p, 720p,
or 1080i.
The video circuits are equipped with a Faroudja high-
image-quality circuit (DCDi) to suppress aliasing
artefacts (“jaggies”) produced during IP conversion,
thus creating a smoother, more natural, image.
