About Wireless LANs

● The advantage of a wireless LAN is that information

can be exchanged between a PC or other such

equipment and an access point using radio waves as

long as you are within range for radio transmissions.

English

On the other hand, because the radio waves can

travel through obstacles (such as walls) and are

available everywhere within a given range, problems

of the type listed below may occur if security-related

settings are not made.

•A malicious third-party may intentionally intercept

and monitor transmitted data including the content

of e-mail and personal information such as your ID,

password, and/or credit card numbers.

•A malicious third-party may access your personal

or corporate network without authorization and

engage in the following types of behaviour.

Retrieve personal and/or secret information

(information leak)

Spread false information by impersonating a

particular person (spoofing)

Overwrite intercepted communications and issue

false data (tampering)

Spread harmful software such as a computer virus

and crash your data and/or system (system crash)

● Since most wireless LAN adapters or access points

are equipped with security features to take care of

these problems, you can reduce the possibility of

these problems occurring when using this product

by making the appropriate security settings for the

wireless LAN device.

● Some wireless LAN devices may not be set for

security immediately after purchase. To decrease the

possibility of occurrence of security problems, before

using any wireless LAN devices, be absolutely sure

to make all security-related settings according to the

instructions given in the operation manuals supplied

with them.

Depending on the specifications of the wireless LAN,

a malicious third-party may be able to break security

settings by special means.

Please contact Panasonic if you need help taking

care of security settings or other such.

If you cannot perform security settings for your

wireless LAN by yourself, please contact the

Panasonic Support Center.

● Panasonic asks customers to thoroughly understand

the risk of using this product without making security

settings, and recommends that the customer

make security settings at their own discretion and

responsibility.

Notes on Using Wired LAN

When setting up the Display at a place, where

electric statistic occurs often, take a sufficient

antistatic measure before start using.

•When the Display is used at a location, where static

electricity occurs often, such as on a carpet, a wired

LAN communication is disconnected more often.

In that case, remove static electricity and the noise

source that may cause problems with an antistatic

mat, and re-connect the wired LAN.

•In rare cases, the LAN connection is disabled due

to static electricity or noise. In that case, turn off the

power of the Display and the connected devices once

and then re-turn on the power.

The Display may not work properly due to strong

radio wave from the broadcast station or the radio.

•If there is any facility or equipment, which outputs

strong radio wave, near the installation location, set

up the Display at a location sufficiently far from the

source of the radio wave. Or, wrap the LAN cable

connected to the LAN terminal by using a piece of

metal foil or a metal pipe, of which is grounded at

both ends.

English

Cleaning and maintenance

The front of the display panel has been specially

treated. Wipe the surface of the display panel gently

using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.

•If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft,

lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or

water in which neutral detergent has been diluted 100

times, and then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the

same type until the surface is dry.

•Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with

fingernails or other hard objects, otherwise the

surface may become damaged. Furthermore, avoid

contact with volatile substances such as insect

sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of

the surface may be adversely affected.

If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry

cloth.

•If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in

water to which a small amount of neutral detergent

has been added and then wring the cloth dry. Use this

cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a

dry cloth.

•Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact

with the surface of the Display. If water droplets get

inside the unit, operating problems may result.

•Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect

sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of

the cabinet surface may be adversely affected or the

coating may peel off. Furthermore, do not leave it for

Before connecting

● Before connecting cables, carefully read the operating

instructions for the external device to be connected.

● Turn off the power of all devices before connecting

cables.

● Take note of the following points before connecting

the cables. Failure to do so may result in

malfunctions.

•When connecting a cable to the unit or a device

connected to the unit itself, touch any nearby

metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from

your body before performing work.

•Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect

a device to the unit or to the unit 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.

•When connecting cables, connect GND first, then

insert the connecting terminal of the connecting

device in a straight manner.

● Acquire any cable necessary to connect the external

device to the system that is neither supplied with the

device nor available as an option.

● If the outer shape of the plug of a connection cable is

large, it may come in contact with the periphery such

as a back cover or the plug of an adjacent connection

cable. Use a connection cable with the suitable plug

size for the terminal alignment.

● If video 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.

● When the sync signals output form PC or video

equipment are disturbed, for example, when changing

settings of video output, the colour of the video may

be disturbed temporarily.

● The unit accepts Composite video signals, YCB RC /

YP P signals, analogue RGB signals and digital B R

signals.

● Some PC models are not compatible with the unit.

● Use cable compensator when you connect devices to

the unit using long cables. Otherwise the image may

not display properly.

● Refer to “Preset Signals” (see page ) for the types 110

of video signals that can be displayed with the unit.
