• Microwave ovens, etc.
• Industrial, chemical and medical equipment, etc.
• In-plant radio stations for identifying moving objects such as those used in factory manufacturing lines, etc.
• Designated low-power radio stations.

■ If at all possible, avoid the use of cellular phones, TV sets or radios near the projector.

Cellular phones, TV sets, radios and similar devices use different radio bands from the projector, so there is no effect on wireless communication or the transmission and reception of these devices. However, radio waves from the projector may produce audio or video noise.

■ Wireless communication radio waves cannot penetrate steel reinforcements, metal, concrete, etc.

Communication is possible through walls and floors made from materials such as wood and glass (except glass containing wire mesh), but not through walls and floors made from steel reinforcements, metal, concrete, etc.

□ Avoid using the projector in locations prone to static electricity.

If the projector is used in a location prone to static electricity, such as on a carpet, the wireless LAN connection may be lost.

If the static electricity or noise make it impossible to establish a connection with the LAN, please press the power button on the remote control or the control panel to power off the projector, and eliminate the source of static electricity or noise, then turn on the projector.

□ Using the projector outside the country

Note

- The wireless module (Model No.: ET-WML100E) of the optional accessories is required if you want to use the wireless LAN function of this projector.

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.

• A 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.
• A 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.

Cautions on use

To get a good picture quality

- In 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.

■ Do 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.

□LCD panel

- The 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.

□■Optical 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.

□Lamp

The light source of the projector is a high-pressure mercury lamp.

A high-pressure mercury lamp has the following characteristics.

• The luminance of the lamp will decrease by duration of usage.
• The lamp may burst with a loud sound or have its service life shortened because of shock, chipping, or degradation due to cumulative runtime.
• The lamp life varies greatly depending on individual differences and usage conditions. In particular, continuous use for 6 hours or more and frequent off/on switching of the power greatly deteriorate the lamp and affects the lamp life.

- In rare cases, the lamp bursts shortly after projection starts.

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

( "Lamp unit replacement time" (→ page 104), "Lamp replacement procedure" (→ page 105))

- If the lamp bursts, gas contained inside of the lamp is released in the form of smoke.

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

□ Computer and external device connections

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

Disposal

To dispose of the product, ask your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal.

Note

- The projector has a built-in angle sensor. When projecting in front of the screen, if set the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [PROJECTION METHOD] → [AUTO], the projector's posture will be detected automatically. When projecting from rear, please set the [PROJECTION METHOD] to [REAR/DESK] or [REAR/CEILING].

□ ■ Angle sensor

The range of installation posture detected by the projector's built-in angle sensor is as follows. In the case of [AUTO], when the projector is placed horizontally upright within ± 120^ , it will switch to [FRONT/ DESK]; when the projector is placed horizontally upside down within ± 30^ , it will switch to [FRONT/CEILING] automatically. However, the setting range for [FRONT/DESK] is horizontally upright within ± 30^ .

Attention

- The angle sensor cannot detect whether it is the "Installation prohibited posture" in the above picture. Please do not use the projector tilted at an angle that exceeds ± 30^ from the vertical plane. It may reduce the life of the components.

Parts for ceiling mount (optional)

The projector can be installed on the ceiling by combining the optional Ceiling Mount Bracket (Model No.: ET-PKB2 (Ceiling Mount Bracket)).

• Be sure to use the Ceiling Mount Bracket specified for this projector.
• Refer to the Installation Instructions supplied with the Ceiling Mount Bracket when installing the projector with the bracket.

Attention

- To ensure projector performance and security, installation of the Ceiling Mount Bracket must be carried out by your dealer or a qualified technician.

Projection distance formulas

To use a screen size not listed in this manual, check the screen 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.

For PT-SX320A and PT-SX300A
(Unit: m)

	16:9 aspect ratio 4:3 aspect ratio
Screen height (SH)	= 0.0125 × SD = 0.0152	× SD

Maximum distance (LT)	= 0.037206 × SD - 0.033 = 0.04212	× SD - 0.033

Adjusting adjustable feet

Install the projector on a flat surface so that the front of the projector is parallel to the screen surface and the projected image is rectangular.

If the screen is tilted downward, the projected image can be adjusted to be rectangular by adjusting the front adjustable feet. The adjustable feet can also be used to adjust the projector to be level when it is tilted in the horizontal direction.

Press the leg adjuster button Ⓐ and adjust the vertical projection angle.

Maximum adjustable range Front adjustable feet: 50 mm (1-31/32") Back adjustable feet: 23 mm (29/32")

Attention

- Heated air is expelled from the air exhaust port while the lamp is lit. Do not touch the air exhaust port directly when adjusting the adjustable feet. (→ page 21)

Connecting

Before connecting

• Before connecting, 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 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.

• 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.

• When connecting cables, connect GND first, then insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device in a straight manner.

• 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.

• 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.
• The projector accepts video signals, Y/C signals, YCB_R / YPB_R signals and analog RGB signals (synchronization signals are TTL level).
• Some computer models or graphics cards are not compatible with the projector.
• Use a cable compensator when you connect devices to the projector using long cables. Otherwise the image may not display properly.
• Refer to “List of compatible signals” ( page 112) for the types of video signals that can be used with the projector.

Attention

• Always use one of the following when connecting a VCR.

- A VCR with built-in time base corrector (TBC)

- A time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the VCR

- If nonstandard burst signals are connected, the image may be distorted. In such case, connect the time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the external devices.

Note

- For an HDMI cable, use an HDMI High Speed cable that conforms to HDMI standards. If a cable that does not conform to HDMI standards is used, images may be interrupted or may not be displayed.
