rHazard distance (IEC 62471-5:2015)

The distance from the projection lens surface, at which the emission reaches the Accessible Emission Limit (AEL) of risk group 2, is known as the hazard distance (HD) or safety distance. The area where the emission exceeds the Accessible Emission Limit of risk group 2 is called the hazard zone (HZ). Within the hazard zone, never look into the light projected from the projector. The eyes may be damaged by direct irradiation even if you look at the light just for a moment. If you are outside the hazard zone, it is considered to be safe in all circumstances except deliberately staring into the light projected from the projector.

Attention
f Do not drop the remote control. f Avoid contact with liquids or moisture. f Do not attempt to modify or disassemble the remote control. f Observe the following instructions that are indicated on the caution label at the back of the remote control:
g Do not use old battery with new one. g Do not use batteries other than the type specified. g Be sure the batteries are inserted properly. For other instructions, read the instructions related to batteries that are described in “Read this first!”.

Caution label at the back of the remote control

Note
f When operating the remote control by directly pointing at the remote control signal receiver of the projector, operate the remote control within a distance approximately 30 m (98’5″) from the remote control signal receiver. The remote control can control at angles of up to ±30° vertically and horizontally, but the effective control range may be reduced.
f If there are any obstacles between the remote control and the remote control signal receiver, the remote control may not operate properly. f The signal will be reflected off the screen. However, the operating range may be limited from light reflection loss due to the screen material. f If the remote control signal receiver directly receives strong light, such as fluorescent light, the remote control may not operate properly. Use
it in a place distant from the light source. f The power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> will blink if the projector receives a remote control signal.

Formula for calculating the projection distance
To use a projected image size not listed in this manual, check the projected image size SD (m) and use the respective formula to calculate the value. The unit of all the formulae is m. (Values obtained by the following calculation formulae contain a slight error.) When calculating the value using image size designation (value in inches), multiply the value in inches by 0.0254 and substitute it into SD in the formula.

Projected image size Height (SH)
Projected image size Width (SW)
Minimum projection distance (LW)
Maximum projection distance (LT)

Aspect ratio 16:9 = SD x 0.490 = SD x 0.872
= 1.2906 × SD – 0.0534 = 2.5693 × SD – 0.0398

Aspect ratio 16:10 = SD x 0.530 = SD x 0.848
= 1.3952 × SD – 0.0534 = 2.7776 × SD – 0.0398

Aspect ratio 4:3 = SD x 0.6 = SD x 0.8
= 1.5795 × SD – 0.0534 = 3.1444 × SD – 0.0398

Aspect ratio 21:9 = SD x 0.389 = SD x 0.921
= 1.3643 x SD – 0.0534 = 2.7161 x SD – 0.0398

Connecting

Chapter 2 Getting Started — Connecting

Before connecting
f Before connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for the external device to be connected. f Turn off the power of all devices before connecting cables. f Observe the following when connecting cables. Failure to do so may result in malfunctions.
g When connecting a cable to a device connected to the projector or the projector itself, touch any nearby metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from your body before performing work.
g Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect a device to the projector or to the projector body. The longer the cable, the more susceptible to noise it becomes. Since using a cable while it is wound makes it act like an antenna, it is more susceptible to noise.
g When connecting cables, connect GND first, then insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device in a straight manner.
f Acquire any connection cable necessary to connect the external device to the system that is neither supplied with the device nor available as an option.
f If image signals from video equipment contain too much jitter, the images on the screen may wobble. In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected.
f If synchronization signals output from computers or video equipment are disrupted due to changes in the video output setting or other reasons, colors of projected images may be temporarily disrupted.
f Some computer models or graphics cards are not compatible with the projector. f Connect using an extension device, etc., when installing the projector away from the video equipment. The
projector may not display the image properly when it is connected directly using a long cable. f For details of the types of image signals that can be used with the projector, refer to “List of compatible signals”
(x page 218).

Note
f Switching of the setting in the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu [HDMI1 IN] / [HDMI2 IN] [EDID SELECT] may be required depending on the connected external device when HDMI signal is input.
f For the HDMI cable, use an HDMI High Speed cable that conforms to the HDMI standards. However, when the following 4K image signal exceeding the supported transmission speed of the HDMI High Speed cable is to be input, use the HDMI cable supporting the high speed transmission of 18 Gbps such as the one with Premium HDMI cable authentication. g An image signal with high specification color depth and gradation such as 3840 x 2160/60p 4:2:2/36-bit or 3840 x 2160/60p 4:4:4/24-bit Images may be disrupted or may not be projected when an image signal exceeding the supported transmission speed of the HDMI cable is input.
f The <HDMI IN 1>/<HDMI IN 2> terminals can be connected to an external device with the DVI-D terminal by using an HDMI/DVI conversion cable. However, this may not function properly for some external devices, and image may not be projected.

Attention

f Always use one of the following when connecting a VCR. g A VCR with built-in time base corrector (TBC) g A time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the VCR
f If nonstandard burst signals are connected, the image may be distorted. In such case, connect the time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the external devices.
f Ask a qualified technician or your dealer to install the cable wiring between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector. Image may be disrupted if cable transmission characteristics cannot be obtained due to inadequate installation.
f For the LAN cable between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, use a cable that meets the following criteria: g Conforming to CAT5e or higher standards g Shielded type (including connectors) g Straight- through g Single wire g Diameter of the cable core is same or larger than AWG24 (AWG24, AWG23, etc.)
f When laying cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, confirm that cable characteristics are compatible with CAT5e or higher using tools such as a cable tester or cable analyzer. When a relay connector is used, include it in the measurement.
f Do not use a switching hub between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector. f When connecting to the projector using a twisted-pair-cable transmitter (receiver) of other manufacturers, do not place another twisted- pair-
cable transmitter between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter of other manufacturers and the projector. This may cause image to be disrupted. f To transmit the Ethernet and serial control signals using the <DIGITAL LINK/LAN> terminal, set the [NETWORK] menu [ETHERNET
TYPE] to [DIGITAL LINK] or [LAN & DIGITAL LINK]. f To transmit the Ethernet signal using the terminal, set the [NETWORK] menu [ETHERNET TYPE] to [LAN] or [LAN & DIGITAL
LINK]. f The <DIGITAL LINK/LAN> terminal and the terminal are connected inside of the projector when the [NETWORK] menu [ETHERNET
TYPE] is set to [LAN & DIGITAL LINK]. Do not directly connect the <DIGITAL LINK/LAN> terminal and the terminal using a LAN cable. Construct the system so that it is not connected to the same network via the peripherals such as the switching hub or the twisted-paircable transmitter. f Do not pull cables forcefully. Also, do not bend or fold cables unnecessarily. f To reduce the effects of noise as much as possible, stretch out the cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector without any loops. f Lay the cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector away from other cables, particularly power cables. f When laying multiple cables, run them side by side along the shortest distance possible without bundling them together. f After laying the cables, go to the [NETWORK] menu [DIGITAL LINK] [DIGITAL LINK STATUS] and confirm that the value of [SIGNAL QUALITY] is displayed in green which indicates normal quality.

Chapter 2 Getting Started — Connecting Note
f Switching of the setting in the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu [DIGITAL LINK IN] [EDID SELECT] may be required depending on the connected external device when DIGITAL LINK signal is input.
f For the HDMI cable, use an HDMI High Speed cable that conforms to the HDMI standards. If a cable that does not conform to the HDMI standards is used, images may be interrupted or may not be projected.
f The optional Digital Interface Box (Model No.: ET-YFB100G) and the optional DIGITAL LINK Switcher (Model No.: ET-YFB200G) do not support the input and output of the 4K image signal.
f The maximum transmission distance between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector is 100 m (328’1″) for the signal with resolution of 1 920 x 1 200 dots or less. For the signal with the resolution exceeding 1 920 x 1 200 dots, the maximum transmission distance will be 50 m (164’1″). It is possible to transmit up to 150 m (492’2″) if the twisted-pair-cable transmitter supports the long-reach communication method. However, the signal that the projector can receive is only up to 1080/60p (1 920 x 1 080 dots, dot clock frequency 148.5 MHz) for the long-reach communication method. If this distance is exceeded, image may be disrupted or a malfunction may occur in LAN communication. Please note that Panasonic Connect Co., Ltd. does not support the use of the projector outside the maximum transmission distance. When connecting with the long reach, image signal or distance that can be transmitted may be restricted, depending on the specification of the twisted- pair-cable transmitter.
f For twisted-pair-cable transmitters of other manufacturers of which the operation has been verified with the projector, visit the website (https:// panasonic.net/cns/projector/). Note that the verification for devices of other manufacturers has been made for the items set by Panasonic Connect Co., Ltd., and not all the operations have been verified. For operation or performance problems caused by the devices of other manufacturers, contact the respective manufacturers.

f It is recommended that images be projected continuously for at least 30 minutes before the focus is adjusted. f Since the projected image size will change when the focus ring is turned, fine adjust the projected image size again by turning the zoom
ring. f Perform the [POSITION] menu [GEOMETRY] when the projected image is distorted.
Adjusting adjustable feet
Install the projector on a flat surface so that the front of the projector is parallel to the screen surface and the projection screen is rectangular. If the screen is tilted downward, extend the front adjustable feet so that the projected image becomes rectangular. The adjustable feet can also be used to adjust the projector to be level when it is tilted in the horizontal direction. Adjustable feet can be extended by turning them as shown in the figure. Turning them in the opposite direction will return them to the original position.

Maximum adjustable range Adjustable feet: 35 mm (1-3/8″) each

Attention
f Be careful not to block the intake/exhaust vents with your hands or any objects when adjusting the adjustable feet while the light source is on. (x page 28)
Lens shift range
The projection position can be adjusted within the lens shift range based on the position of the projected image in the standard projection position. Following illustration indicates the lens shift range when the projector is installed on desk/floor.

Projected image width H
