DIGITAL LINK
“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 HDBaseTTM 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
TM standard. For the devices of other 
manufacturers that the operation has been verified with this projector , visit 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 respe\
ctive manufacturers. This projector 
does not support audio transmission because it is not equipped with audio function.

Art-Net
“Art-Net” is an Ethernet communication protocol based on the TCP/IP protocol.
By using the DMX controller and the application software, illumination and stage system can be controlled. Art-Net 
is made based on DMX512 communication protocol.
Early Warning Software
The projector supports “Early Warning Software”, which monitors the status of the display (projector or 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 the Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/pass/). It is necessary to 
register and login to PASS
*1 to download.

Disposal
To dispose of the product, ask your local authorities or dealer for corre\
ct methods of disposal.
Cautions on use
 rTo get a good picture quality
In order to view a beautiful image in higher contrast, prepare an approp\
riate environment. Draw curtains or blinds 
over windows and turn off any lights near the screen to prevent outside light or light from indo\
or lamps from 
shining onto the screen.
 rDo 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.
Attach the supplied lens cover to the optional projection lens when not using the projector .
 rDLP chips
 fThe DLP chips are precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always 
lit. Such a phenomenon does not indicate malfunction.
 f Directing a high-power laser beam onto the projection lens surface can damage the DLP  chips.
 rDo 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.
 rLight source
The light source of the projector uses lasers, and has the following cha\
racteristics.
 fDepending on the operating environment temperature, the luminance of the\
 light source will decrease.
The higher the temperature becomes, the more the luminance of the light \
source decreases.
 fThe luminance of the light source will decrease by duration of usage.
The time until when the luminance of the light source decreases by half \
dif

fers depending on the setting of the 
[PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [OPERATION SETTING]  → [OPERATING MODE].
The estimated time until when the luminance of the light source decrease\
s by half is as follows.
(The time is estimated when the [PICTURE] menu  → [DYNAMIC CONTRAST] is set to [3].)
 gWhen [OPERA

TING MODE] is set to [NORMAL]: Approximately 20   000 hours
 gWhen [OPERA

TING MODE] is set to [ECO]: Approximately 24   000 hours
 gWhen [OPERA

TING MODE] is set to [LONG LIFE1]: Approximately 43   000 hours
 gWhen [OPERA

TING MODE] is set to [LONG LIFE2]: Approximately 61   000 hours
 gWhen [OPERA

TING MODE] is set to [LONG LIFE3]: Approximately 87   000 hours  
						

							Chapter 1 Preparation — Precautions for use
ENGLISH - 23
The luminance can be maintained as much as possible for the same runtime\
 by setting the [PROJECTOR 
SETUP] menu → [OPERATION SETTING] → [CONSTANT MODE] to [AUTO]. These times are rough estimate 
when the projector is used without changing the [OPERATING MODE] and [CONSTANT MODE] settings, and 
will vary depending on individual difference and usage condition.
If brightness is noticeably reduced and the light source does not turn o\
n, ask your dealer to clean inside the 
projector or replace the light source unit.
 r Computer and external device connections
 fWhen connecting a computer or an external device, read this manual carefully regarding the use of power cords 
and shielded cables as well.
 r Viewing 3D images
The projector can display the 3D video signal input in various formats such as “frame packing”, “side by side”, etc.
You are required to prepare external devices for viewing 3D images (such as 3D eyewear, video signal output 
devices) which are suitable for your 3D system. Connections of the projector and external devices vary depends 
on the 3D system to be used, see the operating instructions of external devices you use.
Refer to “List of 3D compatible signals” ( x
  page   209) for the types of 3D video signals that can be used with the 
projector.

Note
 f
When operating the remote control by directly pointing the remote contro\
l signal receiver of the projector , operate the remote control at 
a distance approx. 30   m (98'5") or shorter from the remote control signal receiver. The remote control can control at angles of up to ±15°
