DIGITAL LINK

“DIGITAL LINK” is a technology that uses a twisted-pair-cable to transmit audio and video signals.

The projector supports the optional digital interface box (Model No.: ET-YFB100G), and the “XTP transmitter” of Extron Electronics. With some exceptions, operation with twisted-pair-cable transmitters of other companies is not guaranteed.

For support of devices of other companies, refer to Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/).

Cautions on use

rrTo get a good picture quality

ffIn order to view a beautiful image in higher contrast, prepare an appropriate environment. Draw curtains or blinds over windows and turn off any lights near the screen to prevent outside light or light from indoor lamps from shining onto the screen.

ffThe high clarity projection lens is thermally affected by the light from the light source, making the focus unstable in the period just after switching on the power. The focus stabilizes when an image is projected continuously for 30 minutes or more.

rrDo 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.

rrDLP chips

ffThe DLP chips are precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always lit. Note that such phenomena does not indicate malfunction.

ffDirecting a high-power laser beam onto the lens surface can damage the DLP chips.

rrLight source

The light source of the projector uses LED and lasers, and has the following characteristics. ffThe luminance of the light source will decrease by duration of usage.

ffThe life varies greatly depending on individual differences and usage conditions.

rrComputer and external device connections

ffWhen connecting a computer or an external device, use power cords and shielded cables following instructions in this manual.

ffUse a commercial DVI-D cable with a ferrite core.
