Operating Instructions

WELCOME

DearPanasonicCustomer,

Welcome to the Panasonic family of customers. We hope that you have many years of enjoyment from your new colour television. This is a very advanced television; however, the Quick Start Guide will allow you to use the TV as quickly as possible. You can then read the instructions completely and retain them for future reference

Analogue and Digital television – what are they?

Analogue transmission is the system that has been used for many years for broadcasting television programmes. With continuous improvements in technology it is now possible to transmit programmes in a digital format, allowing clearer pictures, more stations and other services to be displayed on screen. Digital television is provided in three different ways; it can be sent along a cable connection direct to your house, broadcast from a satellite, or broadcast using traditional land based (terrestrial) transmitters. The first two options require you to have an extra 'set top box' decoder and in the case of satellite, a receiving dish mounted outdoors. While allowing you to receive traditional analogue transmissions in the usual way, this television can also receive terrestrial digital services using an integrated DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting) decoder. This allows you to enjoy the new era of digital terrestrial television, including future interactive services, without the need for a 'set top box' or satellite dish – your current roof or loft mounted antenna is all you need.

ASPECT

Panasonic Auto

Some broadcasts are transmitted together with a wide screen identification signal (WSS). If the TV receives this signal then it will automatically switch to wide screen 16:9 mode, maximum display.

The automatic widescreen switching depends upon reception conditions and the strength of the signal. If the signal is poor and therefore the WSS is weak then it is possible that the picture may not expand to 16:9 (full) size and that the TV will display black areas around the edges.

If the original source signal was a standard 4:3 aspect ratio then you might prefer to view it in its original size; the red and green keys that appear will allow you to choose between viewing at standard 4:3 size or expanded in Just mode.

Panasonic Auto

4:3

4:3 will display a 4:3 picture at its standard 4:3 size and can be selected if you wish to view in this format.

ASPECT CONTROLS

Zoom

Zoom mode magnifies the central section of the picture.

The picture can be moved and enlarged vertically using the coloured keys. The former adjustment is useful for viewing any sub-titles which may appear outside the picture.

The on screen selector keys that appear for some aspect functions will clear after a few seconds. If you subsequently wish to select an operation then press the Aspect key once more for the keys to reappear.

The widescreen aspect ratios of different films and programmes can vary. If these are wider than a standard 16:9 aspect picture then a black band may be visible at the top and bottom of the screen.

If, in Panasonic Auto mode, you experience problems with the screen display size when playing back widescreen format recordings from your VCR then it is possible that the tracking control of your VCR requires adjustment (your VCR instruction book will contain adjustment details).

16:9 (Full)

16:9 (Full) will display the picture at its maximum size but with slight elongation.

Just

Just mode will display a 4:3 picture at maximum size but with aspect correction applied to the centre of the screen so that elongation is only apparent at the left and right edges of the screen. The size of the picture will depend on the original signal.

DVBTIMERPPROGAMWNIGMENIU

For an external VCR to record DVB programmes, the integrated DVB system must be active to provide the signal.

The Timer programming menu allows you to choose programmes that you wish to record. At the correct time, the DVB system will switch on and tune to the correct station (even if the TV is in standby mode). If the VCR is compatible with Q-Link or similar technologies (see page 37) you do not need to program the VCR – the DVB system will control the recording process.

The VCR must be connected to the TV using a SCART cable to record DVB programmes.

Q-LINK

Q-Link allows the television to communicate with a compatible VCR

For Q-Link communication to work, the TV must be connected to a VCR with the "Q-Link", "NEXTVIEWLINK", "DATALOGIC", "Easy Link", "Megalogic" or "SMARTLINK" logo using a "fully wired" Scart cable between the AV2 socket of the television and the appropriate socket on your VCR.

For connection to the appropriate Scart socket on the VCR, refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

When using a "NEXTVIEWLINK" VCR the main features possible are the following :

• Preset Download - Downloading of tuning information from the TV to the VCR.
• Direct TV Record - For immediate recording of the current program (What You See Is What You Record).

When using a "Q-Link" VCR the main features possible are the following :

• Preset Download - Downloading of tuning information from the TV to the VCR.
• Direct TV Record - For immediate recording of the current program (What You See Is What You Record).
  • TV/VCR Auto Power On - When the VCR plays a tape the TV will automatically switch On from Standby and select the AV2 input.
• VCR Auto Power Standby - When the TV is switched into Standby, the VCR will also switch into Standby.
• VCR Image view - When the VCR displays an OSD menu, the TV will automatically switch On from Standby and select the AV2 input.

This TV will also communicate with other VCR's that bear the following logos :

• "DATA LOGIC" (a trademark of Metz Corporation).
• "Easy Link" (a trademark of Philips Corporation).
• "Megalogic" (a trademark of Grundig Corporation).
• "SMARTLINK" (a trademark of Sony Corporation).

These VCR's may support some or all of the above functions. Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

PresetDownload

This allows the programme order from the TV to be downloaded to the VCR, helping to ensure that correct recordings are made; there are several ways to perform this operation:

1. During installation as explained in the 'Quick Start Guide' beginning on page 6.
2. When Auto setup is started from within the Tuning menu, see page 24.
3. When TV to VCR manual download is started from within 'Programme edit', see page 23.
4. Preset download started from the VCR, refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

Because a VCR cannot tune to DVB stations, only the analogue programme positions are downloaded to the VCR. Since the TV stores analogue stations after DVB stations, analogue BBC1 may be stored at programme position 25, for example.

During downloading however, analogue BBC1 will be sent to the VCR as programme position 1. This allows you to find stations on the VCR where you would expect to find them, with BBC1 on position 1, BBC2 on position 2, ITV on position 3 etc.

The fact that the analogue programme positions stored on the TV and those stored on the VCR do not match will not affect recording via Q-Link. When recording an analogue station using the DIRECT TV REC button (see page 38), the TV will instruct the VCR to select the correct programme position for that station.

Important Note:

Not all VCRs support this type of data communication system. Some may support certain features, but not others. Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

If Q-Link is inoperative, first confirm that your Scart cable is a "fully wired" type. Ask your dealer for further details.

WhatYouSeelsWhatYouRecord(DIRECTTVRECORDING)

This will allow the immediate recording of the program currently shown on the Television.

DIRECT TV REC

Press the DIRECT TV REC button on the remote control

If the VCR is in Standby mode with a useable tape inserted, it will automatically switch on when you press the DIRECT TV REC button.

If a "Q-Link" VCR is connected a message will appear on the TV screen showing what is being recorded, or if it is not possible to record. Some "Q-Link" compatible VCR's will only display the message when on the VCR programme position(0) or in AV mode. Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

Recording DVB stations

If you press the DIRECT TV REC button while watching a DVB station, the VCR will automatically switch to its AV input to record the DVB signal from the TV (via the SCART cable), and the DVB programme position will be locked. If you attempt to select another DVB programme position while recording, you will see the message "This programme is locked". Press the OK button to clear the message, or the EXIT button to unlock the programme. Beware that if you press EXIT the DVB programme will be unlocked – switching to another DVB programme will spoil your intended recording.

When the TV is switched into 'Standby' mode, the VCR will also switch into 'Standby' mode if there is no tape in the VCR, or if there is a tape in and the VCR is in 'Rewind' or 'Stop' mode (if the VCR is rewinding a tape, it will not switch into 'Standby' mode until rewinding has finished).

Some other VCR's may support this feature. Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

VCRIImageViewOn

(With a Panasonic Q-Link VCR connected, this additional feature is available).

If the TV is in Standby mode and the VCR sends a menu to be displayed on the TV screen (e.g. Main menu), the TV will automatically switch On and the menu will be displayed.

Some other VCR's may support this feature. Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

VCRINSTALLATION

Your new TV is supplied with programme position '0' set to receive an RF signal from your VCR, although a Scart connection is preferable if the VCR is so equipped.

However, if for some reason your VCR is tuned to a different RF channel then you will not receive any picture or sound from your VCR on programme position '0' of the TV. It will be necessary to either adjust the RF channel of your VCR (some VCR's allow adjustment of their RF channel via their remote control unit) or to adjust the tuning of the TV's programme position '0' or both until it receives the RF output channel of your VCR.

It is intended that this advice is used in conjunction with the instruction books for your additional equipment.

Use the AV1 Scart terminal for a VCR.

Use the AV2S S cart terminal for an S-Video VCR.

Use the AV2S Scart terminal for a Q-Link, NEXTVIEWLINK or compatible VCR.
