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.
12
English
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.
A malicious third-party 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.
A malicious third-party may access your personal
or corporate network without authorization and engage in the following types of behaviour.
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.
Please contact Panasonic if you need help taking care of security settings or other such.
If you cannot perform security settings for your wireless LAN by yourself, please contact the Panasonic Support Center.
●
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.

Notes on Using Wired LAN

When setting up the Display at a place, where electric statistic occurs often, take a sufficient antistatic measure before start using.
When the Display is used at a location, where static
electricity occurs often, such as on a carpet, a wired LAN communication is disconnected more often. In that case, remove static electricity and the noise source that may cause problems with an antistatic mat, and re-connect the wired LAN.
In rare cases, the LAN connection is disabled due
to static electricity or noise. In that case, turn off the power of the Display and the connected devices once and then re-turn on the power.
The Display may not work properly due to strong radio wave from the broadcast station or the radio.
If there is any facility or equipment, which outputs
strong radio wave, near the installation location, set up the Display at a location sufficiently far from the source of the radio wave. Or, wrap the LAN cable connected to the LAN terminal by using a piece of metal foil or a metal pipe, of which is grounded at both ends.

Cleaning and maintenance

The front of the liquid crystal panel has been specially treated. Wipe the surface of the liquid crystal panel gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft,
lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or water in which neutral detergent has been diluted 100 times, and then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same type until the surface is dry.
Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with
fingernails or other hard objects, otherwise the surface may become damaged. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in
water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added and then wring the cloth dry. Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth.
Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact
with the surface of the Display. If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result.
Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect
sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the cabinet surface may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. Furthermore, do not leave it for long periods in contact with articles made from rubber or PVC.

Before connecting

●
Before connecting cables, carefully read the operating instructions for the external device to be connected.
●
Turn off the power of all devices before connecting cables.
●
Take note of the following points before connecting the cables. Failure to do so may result in malfunctions.
When connecting a cable to the unit or a device
connected to the unit itself, touch any nearby metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from your body before performing work.
Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect
a device to the unit or to the unit 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.
When connecting cables, connect GND first, then
insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device in a straight manner.
●
Acquire any cable necessary to connect the external device to the system that is neither supplied with the device nor available as an option.
●
If the outer shape of the plug of a connection cable is large, it may come in contact with the periphery such as a back cover or the plug of an adjacent connection cable. Use a connection cable with the suitable plug size for the terminal alignment.
●
If video signals from video equipment contain too much jitter, the images on the screen may wobble. In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected.
●
When the sync signals output from PC or video equipment are disturbed, for example, when changing settings of video output, the colour of the video may be disturbed temporarily.
●
The unit accepts Composite video signals, YC YPBPR signals, analogue RGB signals and digital signals.
●
Some PC models are not compatible with the unit.
●
Use cable compensator when you connect devices to the unit using long cables. Otherwise the image may not display properly.
●
Refer to “Preset Signals” (see page 112 ) for the types of video signals that can be displayed with the unit.
