Advanced On-Screen
Menu System
On-screen displays make it easy
to adjust most picture, sound,
and convenience features from
either the remote control or the
TV front-panel buttons.
Remote
Universal Remote Control
CRK76TUL1/CRK76TQL1
New ergonomic design and
color-coded buttons provide
complete TV operation plus
control of the primary functions
of virtually every brand of
remote-controllable VCR, satellite
system, and cable box. Also
controls most functions of RCA
DVD players. Frequently-used
buttons illuminate for easier
nighttime use.
Stereo Amplifier
Built-in amplifier enhances
stereo performance and can
power optional left/right or
surround speakers.
Understanding Plasma
RCA Plasma is equipped with the ultimate in
technology. The use of plasma, a mixture of rare
gases that emulate the energy of the sun, makes
it possible to achieve an image that is infinite in
surface and quality.
Trapped between two glass plates and electronically
activated, the plasma produces a controlled energy
that is instantaneously transformed into color images
by red, green and blue phosphors. The technique is
all the more astonishing when you consider that the
layer of gas is only 100 microns thick—one-tenth
of a millimeter!
RCA combines this technology with the unique
Capsulated Color Filter
1
process: a grid of colored
micro-filters positioned on the screen. The fidelity of
the colors is so high, they are virtually identical to the
colors in nature. In fact, they are indistinguishable.
3D Y/C Digital Frame Comb Filter
The ultimate in color separation—this three-
dimensional filter evaluates both current and
future video information, eliminating dot
and edge crawl while providing for better
transitions between scene changes—resulting
in a dramatically enhanced picture.
CinemaScreen
PR42300
The monitor is a high-performance XGA-compatible
42" plasma monitor designed for corporate
applications including conference room meeting
support, boardroom presentations, video
conferencing and dynamic signage in building lobbies
and shared areas. The CinemaScreen
monitor
includes SYNCROSCAN
conversion technology for
sharp, stable images up to XGA resolution and
realistic color reproduction.

Technology
Provides Realistic Color
Capsulated Color Filter
1
(CCF) technology improves
color response to provide the most realistic color
rendering available in plasma monitors. CCF
technology is a series of red, green and blue filters
bonded within the panel’s front glass substrate. CCF
optimizes the color spectrum of visible light emitted
from the panel by attenuating unwanted spectral
emissions associated with the ionization of gas within
the individual pixels. CCF also incorporates a black
matrix that helps the panel absorb external light, cuts
down on reflections and improves the reproduction
of black. The result is color that is more true to life,
enhanced contrast and a screen image that is
perceptibly superior to other plasma monitors.
Professional Color Management Control
The CinemaScreen
monitor’s control system
complements Capsulated Color Filter
1
technology
by allowing simple and accurate adjustment of
on-screen color temperature settings through the
monitor’s on-screen user menus. Select one of
three preset color temperatures or “Pro Mode.”
Select PM to set a customized color temperature
to suit your specific application requirements or
personal preferences.
SYNCROSCAN
Conversion Technology
Delivers High-Resolution Image Quality
The SYNCROSCAN
system of the CinemaScreen
monitor automatically delivers high-resolution pixel
mapping from sources up to XGA resolution. This
high-performance system displays computer graphics
with superior accuracy and stability. This results in a
screen image with excellent clarity from the highest
resolution sources.

The RCA HD/Digital Receiver has a built-in DIRECTV
receiver and is an essential part of the plasma equation,
providing a wide variety of digital programming
options. Specifically, the DTC100 accepts all local
digital programming, as well as local analog broadcasts
and analog cable. When combined with a DSA8900E
dish (sold separately), you have access to over 225
channels of digital-quality entertainment from
DIRECTV (programming sold separately). The DTC100
and DSA8900E will also provide access to DIRECTV
®
high-definition programming. The DTC100 digital
receiver not only puts digital entertainment possibilities
into the plasma picture—it also makes an impact with
digital-quality sound. The receiver offers 5.1-channel
Dolby Digital
2
Surround Sound capability with up to
five full channels and a sixth low-frequency-effects
(subwoofer) channel.
The RCA HD/Digital Receiver adds to the superior picture
quality of plasma.
