Communication range of a 3D IR Transmitter and 3D Eyewear
The IR signals for controlling the 3D Eyewear transmitted from the 3D IR Transmitter reach the 3D Eyewear after being reflected by the screen.
The communication range between the 3D IR Transmitter and 3D Eyewear is as shown below.
Screen | Approx. 4 m (13'1") |
|
|
| |
35 ° | Approx. 5 m (16'5") | 3D Eyewear |
|

35 ° |
|
|
| Approx. 4 m (13'1") |

The diagram above shows the communication range under the following conditions:
-When the distance between the projector and the screen is 6 m (19'8").
-When the projector is arranged in front of the screen without performing lens shift.
Screen
6 m (19'8")

-When using a 2.54 m (100"), screen gain [1], diffuser screen.
-When [3D IR TRANSMITTER] is set to [STRONG].
-When there is no effect of strong light from the sun or from a fluorescent lamp.
Note that the communication range may differ greatly depending on the type and material of the screen.
zz The 3D Eyewear may not correctly receive infrared control signal in the following cases.
-When there is an obstacle between the projector and the screen.
-When dirt or dust has accumulated on the 3D Eyewear transmitter.
-When the 3D Eyewear is not facing the screen.
zzRemove the lens shift cover if you cannot see 3D video. The communication range may increase.
zzIf you wish to view 3D images in an environment that does not fulfil the previously noted conditions, please purchase an external 3D IR Transmitter (optional accessory).
zzIf communication between the 3D IR Transmitter and 3D Eyewear is lost, either recharge or replace the battery of the 3D Eyewear. ( page 94)
Cautions when using 3D Eyewear
zzDo not use devices that generate strong electromagnetic radiation (such as cell phones, handheld radios, etc.) close to the 3D Eyewear. This may cause the 3D Eyewear to malfunction.
zzDo not expose the 3D Eyewear to direct sunlight, fluorescent light or other strong light as 3D video may not be viewed correctly in some cases.
zzThe 3D Eyewear cannot exhibit sufficient performance at high or low temperature.
Follow the operation temperature range noted in the operating instructions for the 3D Eyewear.
zzWear the 3D Eyewear correctly. If they are worn upside down or backwards, the solid body image will not be seen correctly.
zzIt may be difficult to view other displays (such as the computer screen, digital clock, calculators etc.) while wearing the 3D Eyewear. Remove the 3D Eyewear when viewing other than 3D videos.
zzRechargeable 3D Eyewear cannot be charged with this projector. If you don’t have a Panasonic 3D TV that supports 3D video, use a SANYO eneloop Mobile Booster ( page 17) to charge your Eyewear.
Note
zzAfter finishing the 3D video, place the 3D Eyewear in their glass case and store avoiding places with high humidity and high temperature.
zzPlease see the operating instructions for the 3D Eyewear regarding cleaning of the 3D Eyewear.
zzWhile wearing 3D Eyewear and viewing 3D movies under a modulated fluorescent light, your field of vision may be tinted red or blue in cycles of 2 - 3 seconds. Change the brightness of the light so that it does not have any effect on viewing.
