One-Touch Auto Setup

The one-touch auto setup function with digital keystone correction saves you time and trouble. The projector handles all picture adjustments, from phasing and dot clocks to vertical and horizontal alignment. With setup so quick and easy, you can start your presentation almost immediately.

Horizontal/Vertical Digital Keystone Correction

The PT-LC80U’s built-in gravity sensor— a Panasonic original — determines the projector’s angle relative to the floor and corrects for verti- cal keystone distortion accordingly. This is per- formed automatically as part of the one-touch auto setup function. Horizontal (left/right) key- stone correction can be performed manually using the on-screen menu.

NOTE: Automatic vertical keystone correction can be turned off if desired.

Automatic Input Signal Detector

The PT-LC80U’s new automatic signal detector also handles the entire re-setup procedure for you if the input signal changes. In other words, once you’ve used the One-Touch Auto Setup function at the start of your presentation, you can connect different PCs without any further adjustment — you don’t even have to press the auto setup button each time.

RGB2-In/RGB1-Out Switchable

The PT-LC80U accepts up to two RGB inputs, which eliminates the need to juggle and recon- nect equipment when giving consecutive pre- sentations from two

different PCs. The			PC	Monitor

the RGB1 input, making it easy to give presen- tations while viewing the display on a desktop or notebook computer.

Extra-Short-Throw Lens

The PT-LC80U is equipped with a large- diameter, extra-short-throw lens. This shortens the necessary projection distance, thereby saving space. You can project a 32˝-wide screen, for example, from only four feet

(1.2 meters) away, which lets you place the projector right at the front of the table. Your presentations can be both more comfortable and more convenient, with large, easy-to-see images even in smaller rooms.

High 2000 ANSI Lumens Brightness

The PT-LC80U delivers super-bright output with 2000 ANSI lumens — thanks to a high-perfor- mance optical system and high-efficiency 160W UHM™ lamp — for sharp, crisp images that are easy to see. It also provides excellent bright- ness uniformity of 90%.

micro-portable unit can slip easily into a bag for carrying, together with a notebook PC. And it weighs only 4.9 pounds (2.2 kg). This lightweight, space-saving design lets you store it on a bookshelf, in a locker — virtually any- where you want.

Secure

Anti-Theft Features

The PT-LC80U is designed with effective anti- theft features, including a user password, con- trol panel lock and text superimposing. It also has a security lock slot compatible with the Kensington MicroSaver® cable.

User Password

When the projec- tor power is turned on, a screen appears prompting you to enter the pass- word. Unless the

correct password is input, nothing but the power button can be operated. The password can be changed as desired.

Control Panel Lock

Using a setting on the on-screen menu, you can disable the opera- tion of all of the controls on the top and rear pan-

els of the projector. This setting can only be canceled with the unit's own card remote con- trol. By simply storing the projector and remote control separately, you can thus prevent unau- thorized use.

Text Superimposing

You can program a text line to be superimposed on the bottom of the projected image. This helps to deter theft by continually displaying, for
