20 - ENGLISH

Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use

About Wireless LANs

The advantage of a wireless LAN is that information can be exchanged between a PC or other such equipment and an access point using radio waves as long as you are within range for radio transmissions.

On the other hand, because the radio waves can travel through obstacles (such as walls) and are available everywhere within a given range, problems of the type listed below may occur if security-related settings are not made.

ffA malicious third-part may intentionally intercept and monitor transmitted data including the content of e-mail and personal information such as your ID, password, and/or credit card numbers.

ffA malicious third-party may access your personal or corporate network without authorization and engage in the following types of behavior.

Retrieve personal and/or secret information (information leak)

Spread false information by impersonating a particular person (spoofing) Overwrite intercepted communications and issue false data (tampering)

Spread harmful software such as a computer virus and crash your data and/or system (system crash)

Since most wireless LAN adapters or access points are equipped with security features to take care of these problems, you can reduce the possibility of these problems occurring when using this product by making the appropriate security settings for the wireless LAN device.

Some wireless LAN devices may not be set for security immediately after purchase. To decrease the possibility of occurrence of security problems, before using any wireless LAN devices, be absolutely sure to make all security-related settings according to the instructions given in the operation manuals supplied with them.

Depending on the specifications of the wireless LAN, a malicious third-party may be able to break security settings by special means.

Panasonic asks customers to thoroughly understand the risk of using this product without making security settings, and recommends that the customer make security settings at their own discretion and responsibility.

Early Warning Software

The projector supports “Early Warning Software”, which monitors the status of the display (projector and flat panel display) and the peripheral devices inside an intranet, and notifies of abnormality of such equipment and detects signs of possible abnormality. Also, maintenance can be performed in advance, because this software gives notification of approximate time to replace consumables of the display, to clean each part of the display, and to replace the components of the display.

Depending on the type of license, the number of displays that can be registered for monitoring varies. Limited to the first 90 days after installation in a computer, it is possible to register up to 2048 units of displays free of charge. Download the software from Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/pass/). It is necessary to register and login to PASS*1 to download.

*1 PASS: Panasonic Professional Display and Projector Technical Support Website Refer to Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/pass/) for details.

Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use

Cautions on use

rrTo get a good picture quality

ffIn order to view a beautiful image in higher contrast, prepare an appropriate environment. Draw curtains or blinds over windows and turn off any lights near the screen to prevent outside light or light from indoor lamps from shining onto the screen.

rrDo not touch the surface of the projection lens with your bare hands.

If the surface of the projection lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this will be magnified and projected onto the screen.

Please keep in mounting the supplied lens cover when you do not use the projector.

rrLCD panel

ffThe LCD panel is precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always lit. Note that such phenomena do not indicate malfunction. If still images are projected for a long time, a residual image may remain on the LCD panel. Note that the residual image may not disappear.

rrOptical parts

When the operating environment temperature is high or in environments where lots of dust, cigarette smoke, etc. is present, the replacement cycle of the LCD panel, polarizing plates and other optical parts may be shorter even if used for less than one year. Consult your dealer for details.

rrDo not move the projector or subject it to vibration or impact while it is operating.

Doing so may shorten the life of the built-in motor.

rrLamp

The light source of the projector is a high-pressure mercury lamp. A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics. ffThe luminance of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.

ffThe lamp may burst with a loud sound or have its service life shortened because of shock, chipping, or degradation due to cumulative runtime.

ffThe lamp life varies greatly depending on individual differences and usage conditions. In particular, continuous use for 12 hours or more and frequent off/on switching of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and affects the lamp life.

ffIn rare cases, the lamp bursts shortly after projection starts.

ffThe risk of bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond its replacement cycle. Make sure to replace the lamp unit regularly.

(“When to replace the lamp unit” (x page 135), “How to replace the lamp unit” (x page 136)) ffIf the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in the form of smoke.

ffIt is recommended that you store the Replacement lamp unit as a contingency.

rComputer and external device connections

ffWhen connecting a computer or an external device, read this manual carefully regarding the use of power cords and shielded cables as well.

Disposal

When using the system with multiple projectors

When you use the system with multiple projectors, you can operate all the projectors simultaneously or each projector individually by using single remote control, if a unique ID number is assigned to each projector.

When you want to set the ID number, at first you need to complete the Initial setting, and then after setting the ID number of the projector, set the ID number on the remote control.

About Initial setting, please refer to “When the initial setting screen is displayed” (x page 43).

The factory default ID number of the unit (the projector and the remote control) is set to [ALL], you can control with this setting. If necessary, please set the ID number to the remote control and the projector.

About how to set the ID number of the remote control, please refer to “Setting the ID number of the remote control” (x page 55).

Note

ff Set the ID number of the projector from the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [PROJECTOR ID] (x page 87).
