150% Improvement in 
Image Performance 
Daylight View technology significantly
improves image performance. It achieves a
150% improvement in image performance
and significantly boosts color perception in
bright rooms such as conference
rooms and classrooms.*

Vivid Colors in a Bright Room
Panasonic’s unique Daylight View technology
greatly improves color perception in bright
rooms.Pale colors are divided into six basic
color components (red, green, blue, yellow,
cyan and magenta) for more precise control.
Daylight View achieves a superb level of
image performance that produces less of a
difference between PC display images and
projected images.
Auto Operation with 
Ambient Light Sensor
The top panel of the unit is equipped with
an ambient light sensor (
ALS). The ALS
detects changes in the ambient light intensi
ty and optimizes color compensation in four
steps according to the environment. The
Daylight View mode also provides white bal
ance adjustment settings for both fluores
cent and incandescent lamps to match the
room lighting.

							Wireless PC Motion/Sound
Streaming
Wireless Manager Mobile Edition 2, an origi
nal application software for wireless presen
tations, is supplied. This software makes it
easy to use a variety of wireless functions.
In Motion Streaming mode, movingimage
files*
3can be sent completely wireless,
together with audio, from the hard disk of a
PC. There’s no need to connect an externalvideo source.Just set up the PC somewhere
in the room and immediately start into an
effective presentation using both moving
images and sound.
HighSpeed Data Transfer
The IEEE 802.11b/gcompliant wireless LAN
function enables highspeed data transfer.*4
In Live mode and Multi Live mode,the con
tent of the PC screen is projected
with the same smooth
image motion as you
get with a wired
connection. The
motion also flows
naturally in
PowerPoint
animations. This
function combines with
an original environment
adaptive dispersion algorithm to make moving pictures in Motion Streaming modeextremely smooth too.
Flexible 16Window Index Style
In Multi Live mode, a single projector unit
can receive data from multiple PCs and dis
play their images simultaneously on its
multiwindow screen.The projection style
can be selected from Four Window, Index
and Extended Index. It is also possible to
send images from a single PC to multiple
projector units.*

Simple, UserFriendly Settings
We have simplified the process for installing
Wireless Manager ME 2 and setting up a PC
for a wireless presentation. Just insert the
CDROM into the PC, and many of the set
tings are made automatically. When the
presentation is finished, Wireless Manager
restores all PC settings to their original
state, so the PC is ready to reconnect to
your company LAN. When connection is not
possible, a detailed error message is dis
played to help solve the problem quickly.
Other Wireless Features
• Projector control/status monitoring capabili
ty via an Internet browser
• Automatic connection to registered projec
tor units
•Follows the Advanced Encryption Standard
(AES),which has been adopted as an offi
cial U.S. Government standard
• Wireless shutter function
• Oneshot mode
Wireless Manager Control Panel
*3Supports ASF, WMV, AVI, MPEG4 and MPEG1/2 movie formats. Copyright
protection measures prevent wireless projection of DVD sources.
*
4The maximum data transfer speed is 30 frames per second (fps). This
speed differs depending on the PC’s performance and environment.
*
5Up to eight units.
Extended Index Style:
16 Thumbnails
This style projects images
from up to sixteen PCs as
small windows. Using the
projector’s remote control,you can select any one of
the index windows and
display it on the main win
dow or on a full screen.
Index Style:

This style projects
images from up to fourPCs as small windows

2Second Speed Start
Speed Start slashes the time it takes to get
your presentation under way. The image
appears within two seconds after you press
the power button. Behind this breakthrough
is Panasonic’s highprecision lamp and lamp
power supply— an advantage made possible
by our advanced production technology.
OneTouch Auto Setup with 
Digital Keystone Correction
This function assures quick and easy setup.
The projector handles the basic image
adjustments, from phasing to vertical and
horizontal position. The builtin gravity sen
sor detects the projector’s angle relative to
the floor and corrects for vertical keystone
distortion accordingly.
Direct Power Off
When the presentation is completed, Direct
Power Of f lets you disconnect the power
ca ble and move the projector right a way*

Ecolog yConscious Design
Panasonic meticulously works to minimize environmental
impact in the product design, production and delivery
processes, and in the performance of the product itself o ver
its life cycle. The PTLB30NTU reflects the following ecologi
cal considerations.
• Leadfree solder is used to mount components to the printed circuit boards.
• No halogenated flame retardants are used in the cabinet.
• No styrofoam is used in the packing materials.
• Leadfree glass is used for the lens.
• The packing case and operating manual are made from rec ycled paper .
For more conven 
ience, the supplied

							High Power and Portability
T
he PTLB30NTU packs a wealth of advanced Panasonic technology into a
small, lightweight 5.7pound body. In fact, the PTLB30NTU is the world’slightest projector to offer 3,000 lumens of brightness.
Panasonic’s innovative Daylight View technology provides a 150% improve
ment in image performance and significantly boosts color perception in bright rooms.
Starting with the wireless motion and sound streaming capability, the 
PTLB30NTU packs an array of powerful functions into a compact, lightweight body.
By building the wireless function into the
projector, we were able to eliminate the need
for a wireless card and keep the appearanceof the unit slimmer 
and stylish.

NOTES ON USE
• The projector uses a highvoltage mercury lamp that contains high
internal pressure. This lamp may break, emitting a large sound, or fail
to illuminate, due to impact or extended use. The length of time that it
takes for the lamp to break or fail to illumina te varies greatly depending
on individual lamp characteristics and usage conditions.
• The brightness of the lamp will gradually decrease with use.
• Interruptions may occur in the wireless connection due to signal inter ference or PC conditions.
*1: In AI mode.
*2: Operation range differs depending on the environment.
