Screen Saver Functions
◆ A variety of screen saver functions help
minimize the risk of uneven phosphor aging.
You can also use the timer to set the screen
saver operating cycles, operating time, and
start and stop times. This lets you make
settings that match your application.
— White Bar Scroll: White bars move across
the screen from left to right at regular inter-
vals. Good for ordinary still-image displays.
— Screen Reversal: Displays images with black
and white reversed. Good for text displays.
— Side Panel Adjustment: Brightens the black
bands on the sides of the screen when
displaying images in the 4:3 format.
— Wobbling: Shifts the image’s position by
several pixels at fixed time intervals.
— Peak Limit Mode: Lowers the peak
brightness level (image contrast) by 30%.
Energy-Saving Functions
◆ A broad range of environment-friendly
functions help minimize energy consumption.
— DPMS (Display Power Management
Signaling): Power is automatically turned
on or off in response to a sync signal from
a PC connected to the built-in PC input
terminal.
— Auto Power Off: When you’re using a device
connected to the multi-function slots, the
display panel goes into standby mode after
10 minutes if no sync signal is received.
— Power Save Mode: Reduces the display’s
brightness.
— Standby Power Save Mode: Reduces power
consumption when on standby.
Additional Features
◆ The Sound Menu gives you a choice of three
sound settings (Standard/Dynamic/Clear) to
best match the kind of input source.
◆ Panasonic’s “silence engineering” eliminates
the need for a fan — and fan noise — giving
you the kind of quiet operation that makes
for a more pleasant viewing experience.
◆ 4x Digital Zoom lets you enlarge a portion
of an image by up to 4x normal size and
display it on the full screen. Use this function
to give your presentations greater impact.
New Cabinet Design
Panasonic plasma displays (except the 65”)
have a simple, slim front bezel design. Control
buttons and the Power button are set on the
bottom surface. This gives the panels a
smooth, clean look while also helping prevent
accidental operation and tampering.
◆ The 65”, 50” and 42” models can be
positioned vertically to display portrait
images, allowing them to serve as effective
storefront signboards. There’s no need to
install an optional fan kit.
Remote System Monitoring
In addition to the conventional display control command and power supply/input selection
check command, Panasonic flat panel displays feature a new monitor command that lets you
check the signal from a distant location. In conventional systems, you had to install a monitoring
camera to check the images displayed on an advertising display panel or digital signage system.
This new monitor command, on the other hand, lets you monitor images by simply connecting
a PC via a serial cable.
Multi-Screen Applications
The built-in image-enlarging function makes it easier to set up a multi-screen display system
with four (2 x 2), nine (3 x 3), or16 (4 x 4) units. For example, with sixteen 65” displays you can
configure a huge display equivalent to 260” by simply connecting ordinary cables. That’s the
kind of display that catches eyes at shopping malls and event sites. This function works with
component video signals, so you can use enlarged images from DVD and other high-quality
sources in your display.
Thanks to the ID control function, you can use the standard remote control
unit to control multiple panels individually. There is also a mode that displays
a full-screen image, including the edges (the width of the frame) of the display
panel — something not possible with previous systems. This is especially
suitable for displaying text information, since no words are hidden by the frame.
