Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use

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

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.

Notes regarding the wireless LAN

Radio wave in the 2.4 GHz band is used when the wireless LAN connection function of the projector is used. The license of wireless station is not required, but understand the following when using.

To use the wireless LAN function with the projector, it is necessary to attach the optional Wireless Module (Model

No.: AJ-WM50 Series).

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.

24 - ENGLISH

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 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 Interface Board, refer to “Installing the Interface Board” (x page 294).

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 274).

Connecting example: AV equipment

For <SDI 1 IN>/<SDI 2 IN/1 OUT>/<SDI 3 IN>/<SDI 4 IN/3 OUT> terminals of the Interface Board

<SLOT 1>.

12G-SDI signal output compatible device

HD-SDI signal, 3G-SDI signal, 6G-SDI signal, or 12G-SDI signal

Note

f Use a connection cable of 5C-FB or higher (such as 5C-FB, or 7C-FB), Belden 1694A or higher, or L-5.5CUHD manufactured by Canare

Electric Co., Ltd. to properly transmit images. The maximum cable length that can be used is as follows. However, this maximum cable length is a rough guideline, and does not guarantee the transmission distance.

g HD-SDI signal, 3G-SDI signal: 150 m (492'2") g 6G-SDI signal: 80 m (262'6") (When L-5.5CUHD is used, the cable length should be 110 m (360'11").) g For 12G-SDI signal, the cable length will differ depending on the setting in the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu → [SLOT IN] → [SDI MODE].

When [SDI MODE] is set to [INPUT]: 50 m (164'1") (When L-5.5CUHD is used, the cable length should be 100 m (328'1").) When [SDI MODE] is set to [OUTPUT]: 50 m (164'1") (When L-5.5CUHD is used, the cable length should be 90 m (295'3").)

f When the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu → [SLOT IN] → [SDI MODE] is set to [OUTPUT], attach a terminating resistor (75 Ω) to the terminal

with no device connected as an output destination.

Note

f For the HDMI cable, use an HDMI High Speed cable that conforms to the HDMI standards. If a cable that does not conform to the HDMI

standards is used, images may be interrupted or may not be projected. f The projector does not support VIERA Link (HDMI) and HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control). f The optional Digital Interface Box (Model No.: ET-YFB100G) and the optional DIGITAL LINK Switcher (Model No.: ET-YFB200G) do not

support the input and output of the 4K video signal. f The maximum transmission distance between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector is 100 m (328'1") for the signal with

resolution of 1 920 x 1 200 dots or less. For the signal with the resolution exceeding 1 920 x 1 200 dots, the maximum transmission distance

is 50 m (164'1"). It is possible to transmit up to 150 m (492'2") if the twisted-pair-cable transmitter supports the long-reach communication

method. However, the signal that the projector can receive is only up to 1080/60p (1 920 x 1 080 dots, dot clock frequency 148.5 MHz)

for the long-reach communication method. If these distances are exceeded, image may be disrupted or a malfunction may occur in LAN

communication. Please note that Panasonic does not support the use of the projector outside the maximum transmission distance. When

connecting with the long reach, video signal or distance that can be transmitted may be restricted, depending on the specication of the

twisted-pair-cable transmitter. f For twisted-pair-cable transmitters of other manufacturers of which the operation has been veried with the projector, visit the Panasonic

website (https://panasonic.net/cns/projector/). Note that the verication for devices of other manufacturers has been made for the items set

Adjusting the lens mounter when the focus is unbalanced

Focus balance

Relationship between the tilt of the lens and the screen focus surface

When the projection lens is tilted in contrast with the image forming surface, tilting the front side (screen side) of the projection lens downwards (in the direction of the dotted arrow line), the upper side of the screen focus

surface will tilt inwards and the lower side will tilt outwards as shown in the example.

Projection lens

Projected image height V

Image forming surface

Screen focus surface

How to adjust the focus balance (adjustment by tilting the lens mounter)

When the entire screen surface is not uniform even if the focus has been adjusted, the lens mounter has focus adjustment screws in three locations.

f Tool used: Hex driver or Allen wrench (diagonal 4.0 mm (5/32"))

Lens mounter structure

Focus adjustment screws (a), (b), and (c) can be turned to move the lens mount bracket back and forth. Also, tightening the xed screws locks the lens mount bracket in place so it does not move.

When a projection lens with a large weight is installed, or when the projector is installed on an inclination, the lens may tilt and the focus may become unbalanced. In these cases, perform adjustment by referring to the relationship between the adjustment location and adjustment screws.
