rSecurity when using the wireless LAN product

The advantage of a wireless LAN is that information can be exchanged between a computer or other such equipment and a wireless access point using radio waves, instead of using a LAN cable, as long as you are within

range for radio transmissions.

On the other hand, because the radio wave can travel through an obstacle (such as a wall) and is accessible from anywhere within a given range, following problems may occur if security setting is insufcient.

f Transmitted data may be intercepted

A malicious third part may intentionally intercept radio waves and monitor the following transmitted data.

g Personal information such as your ID, password, credit card number g Content of an Email

ENGLISH - 23

Page 24

Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use

f Illegally accessed

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

g Retrieve personal and/or secret information (information leak) g Spread false information by impersonating a particular person (spoong) g Overwrite intercepted communications and issue false data (tampering) g 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, be sure to make all security related settings according to the operation

instructions supplied with each wireless LAN device before using a wireless LAN device. Depending on the specications 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 customers make security settings at their own discretion and responsibility.

rDo not use close to other wireless devices.

Following devices may be using radio wave in the same bandwidth as the projector. Using the projector close to these devices may cause the communication to be disabled or the communication speed to slow down due to interference of radio wave.

f Microwave oven, etc. f Industrial, scientic, or medical devices, etc. f In-plant wireless station for identifying moving vehicles used in the manufacturing lines at a plant f Specied low power wireless station

rDo not use cell phone, television, or radio as much as possible close to the projector.

Cell phone, television, or radio is using radio wave with different bandwidth from the projector, so there is no effect

on the wireless LAN communication or the send/receive on these devices. However, noise may occur in the audio

or video due to the radio wave from the projector.

rRadio wave for wireless LAN communication does not go through the reinforcing

bars, metal, or concrete.

The projector can communicate through wall or oor made of wood or glass (excluding the glass with metal mesh embedded), but it cannot communicate through wall or oor made of reinforcing bars, metal, or concrete.

rDo not use the projector as much as possible in a location where static electricity is

generated.

The communication via wireless LAN or wired LAN may be prone to disruption when the projector is used in a

location where static electricity or noise is generated.

There is a rare case that the LAN connection may not be established due to static electricity or noise, so in such

case, turn off the projector, remove the source of problematic static electricity or noise, and turn the projector back on.

electricity. Consult your dealer.

Projected image and throw distance

Install the projector referring to the projected image size and projection distance. Image size and image position can be adjusted in accordance with the screen size and screen position. The projection relation between the

screen and the projector differs from that of other lenses, when the Fixed-focus Lens (Model No.: ET-DLE035) is used. Refer to “Fixed-focus Lens (Model No.: ET-DLE035)” (x page 41) for details.

Attention

f Before setting up, read “Precautions for use” (x page 20).

Especially when the Fixed-focus Lens (Model No.: ET-DLE035) is used, install the projector so that its back plane is parallel to the screen,

making the projected image rectangular.

The vertical keystone distortion in moderate range can be corrected with the [POSITION] menu → [GEOMETRY] → [KEYSTONE] → [VERTICAL KEYSTONE] (x page 103) even after the projector is installed. For the range that can be corrected, refer to “[GEOMETRY] projection range” (x page 42).

*1 When [VERTICAL KEYSTONE] and [HORIZONTAL KEYSTONE] are used simultaneously, correction cannot be made exceeding total of 55°. *2 Only the vertical keystone correction angle can be corrected in the direction in which the projector body moves away from the screen.

Note

f When [GEOMETRY] is used, the focus of the entire screen may be lost as correction increases. f Make the curved screen a circular arc shape with one part of a perfect circle removed. f Adjustment range of the [GEOMETRY] items may not match the listed projection range depending on the projection lens. Use this projector

within the projection range, otherwise the correction may not work.

*1 When the Fixed-focus Lens (Model No.: ET-DLE035) is attached, the projection relation between the screen and the projector differs from that of

other lenses. Refer to “Fixed-focus Lens (Model No.: ET-DLE035)” (x page 41) for details.

*2 The throw ratio is based on the value during projection of 2.03 m (80") projected image size. When the Fixed-focus Lens (Model No.: ET-DLE035) is

attached, the throw ratio is based on the value during projection of 2.54 m (100") projected image size.

*3 When the Fixed-focus Lens (Model No.: ET-DLE055) is attached, the lens shift is not possible, therefore the height position (H) becomes the xed

value of SH/2.

Formula for calculating the projection distance per projection lens

To use a projected image size not listed in this manual, check the projected image size SD (m) and use the

respective formula to calculate projection distance.

The unit of all the formulae is m. (Values obtained by the following calculation formulae contain a slight error.) When calculating a projection distance using image size designation (value in inches), multiply the value in inches

by 0.0254 and substitute it into SD in the formula for calculating the projection distance.

Connecting

Before connecting

f Before connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for the external device to be connected. f Turn off the power of all devices before connecting cables. f Connect cables taking care of the following descriptions. Failure to do so may result in malfunctions.

g When connecting a cable to a device connected to the projector or the projector itself, touch any nearby

metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from your body before performing work.

g Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect a device to the projector or to the projector body. The longer

the cable, the more susceptible to noise it becomes. Since using a cable while it is wound makes it act like an antenna, it is more susceptible to noise.

g When connecting cables, connect GND rst, then insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device in a

straight manner.

f Acquire any connection cable necessary to connect the external device to the system that is neither supplied

with the device nor available as an option.

f Install the optional Interface Board necessary for the video equipment to connect with the projector to the slot in

advance.

Requesting a qualied technician to install or remove the optional Interface Board is recommended. A

malfunction may occur due to static electricity. Consult your dealer.

For details on how to install the optional Interface Board, refer to “Installing the Interface Board (optional)” (x page 261).

f If synchronization signals output from computers or video equipment are disrupted due to changes in the video

output setting or other reasons, colors of projected images may be temporarily disrupted.

f Some computer models or graphic cards are not compatible with the projector. f Connect using an extension device, etc., when installing the projector away from the video equipment. The

projector may not display the image properly when it is connected directly using a long cable.

f For details of the types of video signals that can be used with the projector, refer to “List of compatible signals”

(x page 245).
