Calculation methods for screen dimensions
You can calculate more detailed screen dimensions from the screen diagonal.
Screen height (SH) = SD (m) × 0.490 = SD (m) × 0.392 Screen width (SW) = SD (m) × 0.872 = SD (m) × 0.920 Minimum distance (LW) = SD (m) × 1.189 − 0.04 = SD (m) × 1.256 − 0.04 Maximum distance (LT) = SD (m) × 2.378 − 0.05 = SD (m) × 1.899 − 0.05
NOTE:
16:9 size 2.35:1 size
You can tilt the projector body less than approximately ±30 ° vertically and ±10 ° horizontally. Overtilting may result in shortening the component’s life. Do not cover the air exhaust/intake ports or place anything within 50 cm (19 5/8") of them.

NOTE:
A translucent screen is required for rear projection. When mounting the projector on the ceiling, the optional ceiling mount bracket (ET-PKE2000, ET-PKE1000S) is required. See “Ceiling mount bracket safeguards” in “Technical Information” of the operating instructions.

Front leg adjusters and throwing angle

You can screw up/down the front leg adjusters to control the angle of the projector for adjusting the throwing angle. See “Positioning the image” on page 12.
NOTE:
Heated air comes out of the air exhaust port. Do not touch the air exhaust port directly. If keystone distortion occurs, see “KEYSTONE” on page 34. Screw up the front leg adjusters, and an audible click will be heard as the limit.

NOTE:
When the projector is located right in front of the centre of the screen and the lens shift dials is centred, you will get the best quality of the projection image. When the Lens shift dial • Vertical is at the vertical limit of the shift range, you cannot turn the dial to the horizontal limit, likewise when the Lens shift dial • Horizontal is at the horizontal limit of the shift range, you cannot turn the dial to the vertical limit. When the projector is tilted and adjusting KEYSTONE, the centre of the screen and the lens need to be realigned. Do not force the lens shift dials to turn as this may damage the projector. Turning the dials maximum limit is 3 or 4 times from the default position.

Connections

Before connecting to the projector

Read and follow the operating and connecting instructions of each peripheral device. The peripheral devices must be turned off. Use cables that match each peripheral device to be connected.
Conrm the type of video signals. See “List of compatible signals” in “Technical Information” of the operating
instructions. Audio cables must be connected from each peripheral device directly to the audio reproduction system.

NOTE:
Make sure the HDMI cable is adapted to your HDMI device for proper performance. A compatible cable is required for an HDMI 1 080p signal. It is possible to connect with DVI devices via a HDMI/DVI conversion adapter, but some equipment may not project the image properly or other problems could be encountered. Please tighten securely, xing the screws on the connectors (D-SUB 15-pin) of the RGB signal cable. For more information about the serial terminals, see “Serial terminal” on page 42.

VIERA Link Connection

VIERA Link (HDAVI Control™) connects projector and the equipment with VIERA Link function, and enables easy control of the home theatre equipment using the projector remote control.
This projector supports “HDAVI Control 4” function. But available features depends on the connected
equipment’s version of HDAVI Control. Please refer to the manual of the equipment to conrm the version.

VIERA Link “HDAVI Control™”

Connections to the equipment (DIGA Recorder, HD Video Camera, Player theatre, Amplier, etc.) with HDMI
cables allow you to interface them automatically. These features are limited to models incorporating “HDAVI Control” and “VIERA Link”.
Some functions are not available depending on the equipment’s version of HDAVI Control. Please conrm the connected equipment’s version of HDAVI Control. But some functions will not be able to perform even if the versions are the same. VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”, based on the control functions provided by HDMI which is an industry standard known as HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), is a unique function that we have developed and added. As such, its operation with other manufacturers’ equipment that supports HDMI CEC cannot be guaranteed. Please refer to individual manuals for other manufacturers’ equipment supporting Link function. About applicable Panasonic equipment, consult your local Panasonic dealer.
J
Preparations
Use fully wired HDMI compliant cable. Non-HDMI-compliant cables cannot be utilised. Set up the connected equipment.
Switch the connected equipment ON.
Set VIERA LINK ON in the Setup Menu.
(Please read the manual of the equipment for these setup.) Set up the projector
Switch the projector ON.
Select the input mode to HDMI1, HDMI2 or HDMI3, and make sure that an image is displayed correctly. Select VIERA LINK SETTINGS in the OPTION menu.
If the VIERA LINK is set to ON, you need to select OFF rst, and then switch to ON again to activate
the ON setting.
NOTE:
This setup should be done each time when the following conditions occur:
When using for the rst time When adding or reconnecting equipment When changing setup
