Panasonic Professional Plasma Displays are
t
he first choice for commercial applications.
Thanks to their adaptibility and versatility, they
can be configured with absolute precision. The
new displays are manufactured without lead to
make them environmentally friendly too!
Portrait or Landscape.
All of the Panasonic Plasma Displays can be
rotated through 90
o
to give a poster style
image. The screens have fans at strategic
positions within the back that will operate to
reduce internal temperature, whether the
screen is in a landscape or portrait position.
After correctly selecting the right position
within the menu system, the display will adapt
to its rotation.
Automatic Gain Control.
Each Plasma Display has an AGC (Automatic
Gain Control) setting, which improves the
brightness of the picture whilst not increasing
the digital noise level. This function will not
brighten images that are naturally dark,
instead focusing on increasing brightness on
lighter objects, thereby increasing contrast.
New Real Black Creation Technology.
This helps to increase the richness of black
and dark colours in dark environments, giving
contrast ratios of up to 10,000:1. This helps
prevent black areas of the screen from
appearing grey and helps minimise pre-loading
flashing by 30%.
Daylight Contrast.
This has been improved by adding a deep
black filter which restricts the transparency and
dramatically reduces the reflections from
environmental lights, producing a contrast
ratio of 400:1 in daylight conditions.
Screen Saver.
To increase the lifetime of the plasma
displays, Panasonic has employed various
screen saving techniques such as operating and
shut-off times, a white scroll bar, colour
inversion, wobbling and peak value correction.
The scroll bar utilises a white vertical bar which
moves from left to right across the screen at set
intervals. This setting is ideal for long term
static images and can be timed to activate out
of hours.
Panasonic High Definition Plasma Screens
New, environmentally friendly Plasma Displays featuring outstanding picture quality.
Colour Inversion.
Users can specify out of hours times for the
screen to invert the colours, negating the
effects of burn in and increasing the life cycle
of the product.
Wobbling.
Static images can be automatically moved
in a clockwise direction, pixel by pixel, so that
an image does not stay in exactly the same
position for long periods. There are two values
for this setting.
Peak Value Correction.
For lighter images, this setting will reduce
the peak brightness of the screen by up to
30%, ideal for light text on a dark background.
MPD Noise Reduction.
The Panasonic MPD Noise Reduction setting
is a facility to reduce noise from fast moving
images such as sports events etc... The noise
and distortion created by fast moving images is
drastically reduced creating crisp and sharp
images at all times.
A weekly timer is included which allows the
user to confirm switch on time and switch off
time at specific times for each individual day of
the week.
This requires no additional hardware or
communications from the media players,
however remote communications with players
is also achievable using the built in serial port
on each screen. The Black Box range of
distribution systems can also support serial
communication between the player and the
screen.
The Panasonic range of Plasma screens have
three option slots in the bottom. These option
slots allow interface modules to be added as
