Cautions when transporting

  • When transporting the projector, hold it securely by its bottom and avoid excessive vibration and impacts. They may damage the internal components and result in malfunctions.
  • Do not transport the projector with the adjustable feet extended. Doing so may damage the adjustable feet.
  • Do not move or transport the projector with the wireless module (Model No.: ET-WML100) of the optional accessories attached. Doing so may damage the wireless module.

Cautions when installing

■Do not set up the projector outdoors.

The projector is designed for indoor use only.

■Do not set up the projector in the following locations.

  • Places where vibration and impacts occur such as in a car or vehicle: Doing so may cause damage to internal components or malfunction.
  • Locations near the sea or areas affected by corrosive gas: Corrosion may damage internal components or cause the projector to malfunction.
  • Near the exhaust of an air conditioner: Depending on the conditions of use, the screen may fluctuate in rare cases due to the heated air from the air exhaust port or the hot or cooled air. Make sure that the exhaust from the projector or other equipment, or the air from the air conditioner does not blow toward the front of the projector.
  • Near high-voltage power lines or near motors: Doing so may interfere with the operation of the projector.
  • Places with sharp temperature fluctuations such as near lights (studio lamps): Doing so may shorten the life of the lamp, or result in deformation of the outer case due to heat, which may cause malfunctions. Follow the operating environment temperature of the projector.

■ Be sure to ask a specialized technician or your dealer when installing the projector on a ceiling.

The optional Ceiling Mount Bracket is required. Be sure to use the Projector Mount Bracket together with the ceiling mount bracket for high ceilings or low ceilings.

Model No.:

① ET-PKD120H (for High Ceilings), ET-PKE300B (Projector Mount Bracket)
② ET-PKD120S (for Low Ceilings), ET-PKE300B (Projector Mount Bracket)

Image and sound may be disrupted if cable transmission characteristics cannot be obtained due to inadequate installation.

■ The projector may not work properly due to strong radio waves from the broadcast station or the radio.

If there is any facility or equipment, which outputs strong radio waves, near the installation location, install the projector at a location sufficiently far from the source of the radio waves. Or, wrap the LAN cable connected to the terminal by using a piece of metal foil or a metal pipe which is grounded at both ends.

■ Focus adjustment

The projection lens is thermally affected by the light from the light source, making the focus unstable in the period just after switching on the power. It is recommended that images be projected continuously for at least 30 minutes before the focus is adjusted.

■ Do not install the projector at elevations of 2 700 m (8 858') or higher above sea level.

■ Do not use the projector in a location that the ambient temperature exceeds 40 °C (104 °F).

Using the projector in a location that the altitude is too high or the ambient temperature is too high may reduce the life of the components or result in malfunctions.

The upper limit of the operating environment temperature should be between 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F) when using it at elevations lower than 1 400 m (4 593') above sea level, and between 0 °C (32 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F) when using it at high altitudes (between 1 400 m (4 593') and 2 700 m (8 858') above sea level).

■ Do not use the projector vertically or tilted to the right or the left.

- Do not use the projector tilted at an angle that exceeds ± 30^ from the vertical plane or ± 15^ from the horizontal plane. It may reduce the life of the components.

"DIGITAL LINK" is a technology to transmit the video, audio, Ethernet, and serial control signals using a twisted pair cable by adding unique functions by Panasonic to the HDBaseT™ communication standard formulated by HDBaseT Alliance.

This projector supports the optional Panasonic DIGITAL LINK output supported device (Model No.: ET-YFB100G, ET-YFB200G) and peripheral devices by other manufacturers (twisted-pair-cable transmitters such as the "XTP transmitter" of Extron Electronics) that use the same HDBaseT™ standard. For the devices of other manufacturers that the operation has been verified with this projector, refer to Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/). Note that the verification for devices of other manufacturers has been made for the items set by Panasonic Corporation, and not all the operations have been verified. For operation or performance problems caused by the devices of other manufacturers, contact the respective manufacturers. In addition, the projector does not support audio transmission because it is not equipped with audio function.

Notes on Using Wireless Connection

Wireless connection function of the projector uses radio waves in the 2.4 GHz band.

A radio station license is not required, but be sure to read and fully understand the following items before use.

The wireless module (Model No.: ET-WML100) of optional accessories must be installed when you want to use the wireless LAN function of this projector.

■Do not use near other wireless equipment.

The following equipment may use radio waves in the same band as the projector.

When the projector is used near these devices, radio wave interference may make communication impossible, or the communication speed may become slower.

  • 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 or wired 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 that depending on countries or regions there are restrictions on the channels and frequencies at which you can use the wireless LAN.

■Available wireless LAN channels

The channels (frequency range) that can be used differ according to the country or region. Refer to the table below.

Country or region Standard CChannels used Frequency band (Center frequency)
Global IEEE802.11b/g/n1 - 11 channel 2.412 GHz - 2.462 GHz

* The frequency and channel differ depending on the country.
* Please use the wireless LAN feature in compliance with the laws of each country.

Note

- The wireless module (Model No.: ET-WML100) 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.

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.

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.

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

■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.

■ Do 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.

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 12 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.
    ("When to replace the lamp unit" (→ page 135), "How to replace the lamp unit" (→ page 136))
  • 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

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 ± 150^ , 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^ .

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.

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.

Extend the adjustable feet by rotating in the direction shown in the figure and retract by rotating in the opposite direction.

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 26)

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, YC_BC_R/YP_BP_R signals, analog RGB signals (synchronization signals are TTL level), and digital signals.

- 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 149) 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.
  • The terminal/ terminal of the projector can be connected to an external device with a DVI-D terminal by using an HDMI/DVI conversion cable, but some devices may not project the image properly or function properly.
  • The projector does not support VIERA Link (HDMI).
  • If the [AUDIO IN SELECT] settings are incorrect, the projector may have malfunctions such as the absence of audio.
  • When Y/C signals are input to the terminal, switch the setting by using the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu → [COMPUTER IN/OUT] → [COMPUTER1 INPUT SETTING]. (→ page 77) In addition, When Y/C signals are input, please use the optional D-SUB - S Video conversion cable (Model No.:ET-ADSV).

*1 The control target will be the projector or the twisted-pair-cable transmitter. The control itself may not be possible depending on the twisted-paircable transmitter. Check the operating instructions of the device to be connected.

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 a case, connect the time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the external devices.
- Ask a qualified technician or your dealer to install the cable wiring for a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector. Image and sound may be disrupted if cable transmission characteristics cannot be obtained due to inadequate installation.
- For the LAN cable between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, use a cable that meets the following criteria:

- Compatible with CAT5e or higher

  • Shielded type (including connectors)
  • Straight-through
  • Single wire

- When laying cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, check that cable characteristics are compatible with CAT5e or higher using tools such as a cable tester or cable analyzer.

When a relay connector is used, include it in the measurement.

  • Do not use a hub between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector.
  • When connecting to the projector using a twisted-pair-cable transmitter (receiver) of other manufacturer, do not place another twisted-pair-cable transmitter between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter of other manufacturer and the projector. This may cause image and sound to be disrupted.
  • Do not pull cables forcefully. In addition, do not bend or fold cables unnecessarily.
  • To reduce the effects of noise as much as possible, stretch out the cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector without any loops.
  • Lay the cables between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector away from other cables, particularly power cables.
  • When laying multiple cables, run them side by side along the shortest distance possible without bundling them together.
  • After laying the cables, confirm that the value of [SIGNAL QUALITY] in the [NETWORK] menu → [DIGITAL LINK STATUS] is displayed in green to indicate normal quality. (→ page 101)

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.
    • The projector does not support VIERA Link (HDMI).
  • The maximum transmission distance between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector is 100 m (328'1"). It is possible to transmit up to 150 m (492'2") if the twisted-pair-cable transmitter supports the long-reach communication method. If this distance is exceeded, image may be disrupted or a malfunction may occur in LAN communication. Please note that we do not support the use of the projector outside the maximum transmission distance. When connecting with the long reach, there may be a limitation to the video signal that can be transmitted or the distance depending on the specification of the twisted-pair-cable transmitter.
  • For twisted-pair-cable transmitters of other manufacturers of which the operation has been verified with the projector, refer to the Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/). Note that the verification for devices of other manufacturers has been made for the items set by Panasonic Corporation, and not all the operations have been verified. For operation or performance problems caused by the devices of other manufacturers, contact the respective manufacturers.

    D -->|USB| B

Attention

- When a LAN cable is directly connected to the projector, the network connection must be made indoors.

Note

  • For the LAN cable between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, use a cable that meets the following criteria:
  • Compatible with CAT5e or higher
  • Shielded type (including connectors)
  • Straight-through
  • Single wire
  • The maximum transmission distance between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector is 100 m (328'1"). 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) when connected with the long-reach communication method. If this distance is exceeded, image may be disrupted or a malfunction may occur in LAN communication.
  • When laying cables between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, check that cable characteristics are compatible with CAT5e or higher using tools such as a cable tester or cable analyzer.
    When using a relay connector midway, include it in the measurement.
  • Do not use a hub between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector.
  • Do not pull cables forcefully. Also, do not bend or fold cables unnecessarily.
  • To reduce the effects of noise as much as possible, stretch out the cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector without any loops.
  • Lay the cables between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector away from other cables, particularly power cables.
  • When installing multiple cables, run them side by side along the shortest distance possible without bundling them together.
  • After laying the cables, confirm that the value of [SIGNAL QUALITY] in the [NETWORK] menu → [DIGITAL LINK STATUS] is displayed in green (indicates normal quality). (→ page 101)
  • For twisted-pair-cable transmitter of other manufacturers of which the operation has been verified with the DIGITAL LINK compatible projector, refer to Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/). Note that the verification for devices of other manufacturers has been made for the items set by Panasonic Corporation, and not all the operations have been verified. For operation or performance problems caused by the devices of other manufacturers, contact the respective manufacturers.

Replacing the unit

Lamp unit

The lamp unit is a consumable component. Refer to “When to replace the lamp unit” ( page 135) for details about the replacement cycle.

When purchasing the optional Replacement Lamp Unit (Model No.: ET-LAEF100), consult your dealer.

It is recommended that you request a qualified technician to replace the lamp unit. Consult your dealer.

WARNING

Replace the lamp unit after the lamp has cooled (after waiting at least one hour).

The high temperature inside the cover will cause burns.

Notes on the replacement of the lamp unit

  • Since the luminous lamp is made of glass, it may burst if dropped or hit with a hard object. Handle with care.
  • Do not disassemble or modify the lamp unit.
  • When replacing the lamp unit, be sure to hold it by the handle because its surface is pointed and its shape is protruded.
  • The lamp may rapture. Replace the lamp unit carefully so that the glass fragments of the lamp do not scatter. While attaching the projector to the ceiling, do not work right under the lamp unit or do not conduct work while your face is near the lamp unit.
  • The lamp contains mercury. When disposing of used lamp units, contact your local authorities or dealer for correct methods of disposal.

Attention

- Panasonic takes no responsibility for any damage or malfunction of the product resulting from use of lamp units which are not manufactured by Panasonic. Use only specified lamp units.

Note

  • The model numbers of accessories and optional accessories are subject to change without prior notice.
  • A Phillips screwdriver is necessary when replacing the lamp unit.

When to replace the lamp unit

The lamp unit is a consumable component. Since its brightness gradually decreases over time, it is necessary to replace the lamp unit regularly.

Time for replacement

When [LAMP POWER] is constantly set to [NORMAL] without switching to other modes = 6 000 hours When [LAMP POWER] is constantly set to [ECO] without switching to other modes = 8 000 hours but the lamp may go off before the time above mentioned has elapsed depending on individual lamp characteristics, usage conditions, and the installation environment. It is recommended that the Replacement lamp unit be prepared earlier.

In order to predict the lamp replacement time, please refer to the lamp runtime displayed in [STATUS] (→ page 87) → [RUNTIME] → [LAMP] → [NORMAL]/[ECO]. It also can be obtained by using the following formula. (The time which is displayed in [ECO] is the converted usage time when set to [NORMAL].)

Formula for lamp replacement time (rough estimate) = “Lamp runtime of [NORMAL]” + “Lamp runtime of [ECO]” × 3/4

If the time which is obtained by the above equation 6 000 hours has elapsed, the lamp turns off automatically after approximately 10 minutes, as it will cause malfunction of the projector.

*1 Signals with √ in the Plug and play columns are signals described in EDID (extended display identification data) of the projector. A signal, which has no √ in the Plug and play columns but has an entry in the Format column, can be input. For signals without √ in the Plug and play columns, resolution may not be selected in the computer even though the projector supports them.
*2 Pixel-Repetition signal (dot clock frequency 27.0 MHz) only
*3 When a 1125 (1035)/60i signal was input, it is displayed as a 1125 (1080)/60i signal. But 1125 (1035)/60i HDMI signal is not supported.
*4 VESA CVT-RB (Reduced Blanking)-compliant
*5 Only for PT-FW530
*6 Only for PT-FZ570

Note

  • The number of display dots for PT-FZ570 is 1920 x 1200. The number of display dots for PT-FW530 is 1280 x 800. The number of display dots for PT-FX500 is 1024 x 768. A signal with a different resolution is converted to the number of display dots.
  • The "i" at the end of the resolution indicates an interlaced signal.
  • When interlaced signals are connected, flickering may occur on the projected image.
