Sharp have created an exciting new series of robust and easy to use professional monitors that are ideal for a wide range of versatile applications including retail shops, hospitality, reception areas, lobbies and other corporate and public spaces. With an elegant, slim and discreet cabinet design the latest generation of PNY Series offers ease of use and straightforward stand-alone operation.

The new PNY 49" is designed for prolonged 24/7 display application and is supported by a powerful embedded USB media player - no need for extra hardware or unsightly cabling - making it even easier to display your messages, images and videos. As an easy-to-use and highly reliable solution with excellent image and sound quality, the PN-Y496 sets a new standard for plug-and-go display signage used anytime and anywhere.

Offering state-of-the-art LED backlight technology, which allows for class-leading slim bezels and shallow cabinet depth, Sharp's latest 49" PN-Y496 display is an elegant addition to any professional signage application. With solid reliability, superb durability and easy operation, the monitor can be installed in either portrait or landscape mode and even face-up or face-down for more eye-catching applications.

The in-built Daisy Chain capability via the DVI-D video connection allows up to 5 units to be connected together for the same mirrored display content. Just another reason why Sharp's LCD monitors can be employed to broaden your business potential.

The optionally downloadable Sharp Content Distributor (SCD) is a straight-forward software tool, which allows you to easily manage, upload and schedule image and video content over the LAN to the USB Media Player. The SCD tool allows you to identify and select any number of the latest PNY series models on your network and individually or as a group set operating schedules and content changes. The SCD uploads content via the LAN to the USB or SD memory device connected to the embedded USB Media Player. The SCD upload can also be achieved wirelessly when a wireless-enabled SD card (e.g. Toshiba FlashAir TM) is used.

The Quality to present Attractive Signage

Excellent Image Quality
Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution brings images to life with vivid, true-to-life details. Everything from thin lines to fine text to photographic images can be displayed in stunning clarity.

Simple and Stylish Design
A narrow 9.5-mm bezel keeps the emphasis on onscreen content, so that information is conveyed clearly and attractively. The simple and stylish design matches a variety of locations and business settings, from small shops to large corporations and industrial environments.

Adaptable to Various Settings
Whether in a landscape or portrait orientation, these monitors can be installed face up, face down or tilted forward or backward at an angle of up to 90 degrees. Such flexibility helps you to incorporate the monitors into a wider-than-ever variety of settings.

Easy and Versatile Signage Support
PN-Y496 LCD monitors support easy daily usage and versatile content distribution. Simply insert a USB memory device or SD card for plug-and-play operation. Using a specified wireless SD card equipped with an original Sharp HTML application, you can distribute content wirelessly from a PC or mobile device. Furthermore, SHARP Content Distributor software supports convenient content distribution and management via network. Thanks to their versatile signage capabilities, these monitors make it easy to convey messages in public spaces or commercial locations or promote internal communication in the office.

Autoplay via Media Player
Displaying still images or videos couldn't be easier. Just insert a USB memory device or SD card into the LCD monitor and the built-in media player starts playing your content right away. There's no need for a PC and cables. It's easy for anyone to operate.

Note

A USB memory device and an SD card should not be used simultaneously

Supported media formats
JPEG and PNG for still images; MP4, WMV and TS for videos; and MP3 and WMA for audio. JPEG (.jpg) and WMV (.wmv) files can be played automatically.

Easy Overwrite via Wireless LAN
With a specified wireless SD card, you can wirelessly overwrite the content stored on the card. Using a wireless LAN makes it easy to distribute content from a PC, tablet or other mobile device, giving you a convenient data-transmission experience. There's no need to insert or remove the card at the back of the monitor when you want to overwrite the content. This not only saves you time, it also gives you more freedom to install the monitor where it's hard to reach-for example in a high place.

Timely Content Distribution via Network
Operating over a LAN, SHARP Content Distributor software makes it easy to update the content to be displayed on multiple LCD monitors. Through simple and intuitive PC operation, you can schedule what content gets distributed, when it gets delivered and which monitors show it. Take advantage of a convenient signage solution that lets you distribute content in a timely manner to multiple PN-Y496 monitors.

Note

Either a USB memory device or an SD card is required for each monitor.

Content List
Register up to 50 content lists, each comprising up to 30 files of either pictures or videos. Creating and updating a customized content list is simple, thanks to intuitive operation.

Scheduling
Set a time and day of the week for content distribution to a maximum of 20 pre-registered LCD monitors. Up to 7 schedule patterns can be registered.

Log Management
Easily manage individual content distribution logs that include date/time, results and names of content lists, as well as IP addresses, names and locations of monitors. This information can be viewed and managed on a PC screen.

SHARP Digital Signage Software
For more professional digital signage management, Sharp offers the option of SHARP Digital Signage Software. This software provides a wide range of signage support for content creation, scheduling, distribution and display management. It can be used with a single standalone LCD monitor or with up to 1,000 monitors connected to a network. Sharp offers an array of solution packages to match a variety of signage needs.

Mirror Display (Daisy Chain) Mode
Mirror Display (Daisy Chain) Mode enables the same image to be displayed on a series of daisy-chained LCD monitors, for the powerful impact of visual repetition.

Note

Via DVI-D connection.

Enlarge (Zoom) Display Mode
Multiple monitors can be grouped together to display one enlarged image, thanks to Enlarge (Zoom) Display mode, which corrects the framing of that image to eliminate misalignment between monitors.

Environmentally Friendly Design
These LCD monitors conform to the RoHS Directive restricting the use of hazardous substances.

Built-in Speakers
Built-in speakers eliminate the need for external speakers and keep the PN-Y496 monitors stylishly streamlined. The speakers emit sound from both sides of the monitor, making them ideal for conveying audio information and playing location-appropriate background music.

VESA-Compliant Mounts
VESA-compliant mounts provide right/left pivot and swivel, ensuring a high level of safety when LCD monitors are mounted on a wall or suspended from a ceiling.

Anti-Theft Covers
Anti-Theft Covers for USB memory device and SD card slots provide enhanced security.

Reliability / Durability

24/7 Operation
24/7 Operation for use in demanding professional applications that require round-the-clock operation seven days a week.

Power on Delay
The Power on Delay function allows a time delay between the startup of each monitor in video walls or multi-monitor installations. This reduces the load placed on the power supply when a number of monitors are turned on at the same time.

Fanless Architecture
The PN-Y496 monitors incorporate a fanless architecture that serves to facilitate monitor maintenance. The fanless design maintains airflow and dissipates heat without the use of mechanical air-ventilation fans, which can attract dust and create noise.

Built-in Temperature Sensor
A built-in sensor detects rising temperatures inside the monitor and prompts automatic adjustment of the backlight system so that temperatures remain within operational limits.

Display Management

ID Setting
Thanks to an RS-232C interface, PN-Y496 monitors can be easily controlled and monitored from a central location via a PC. Each monitor can be assigned an individual ID code to specify when remotely turning that monitor on or off, switching its input or making various screen adjustments and settings.

Scheduling
For total ease of operation, the Schedule function allows up to eight settings to be pre-programmed for automatic monitor turn on/off at precise times on a daily, weekly or one-time basis.

Log Saving/Output
To boost the troubleshooting efficiency of service technicians, operating logs, signal changes, information on operating irregularities and other such data can be saved and tracked.
