126 - ENGLISH Chapter 5 Operations This chapter describes how to use each function.
Chapter 5 Operations — Network connection ENGLISH - 127 Network connection The projector is equipped with the network function, and following is possible by connecting to a computer. fW eb control Setting, adjustment, and displaying status of the projector are possible by accessing the projector from a computer. Refer to “Web control function” (x page 130) for details. fMulti Monitoring & Control Software “Multi Monitoring & Control Software”, which is a software application to monitor and control multiple display devices (projector or flat panel display) connected via LAN, can be used. Refer to the Operating Instructions of the “Multi Monitoring & Control Software” in the supplied CD-ROM for details. fEarly W arning Software “Early Warning Software”, which is a software application to monitor the status of the display devices (projector or flat panel display) or the peripheral device within the intranet, and to notify the problem or to detect the sign of possible problem of the device, can be used. Visit the Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/pass/) for details. f PJLink Operation or status query of the projector can be performed from a computer using the PJLink protocol. Refer to “PJLink protocol” ( x page 156) for details. fArt-Net Setting of the projector can be operated by the DMX controller or application software using the Art-Net protocol. Refer to “Using Art-Net function” (x page 157) for details. fCommand control Operation or status query of the projector can be performed from a computer using the control command. Refer to “Control commands via LAN” ( x page 160) for details. Connecting to the network The projector can be connected to the network using the terminal or the terminal. The Ethernet signal from a twisted-pair-cable transmitter can be received in the terminal together with the video, audio, and serial control signal via a LAN cable. f Use either of the terminal or the terminal when a twisted-pair-cable transmitter is not used. f T o connect a twisted-pair-cable transmitter that is not supporting send/receive of the Ethernet signal, use the terminal. f T o send/receive the Ethernet signal via a twisted-pair-cable transmitter , use the terminal. Example of a normal network connection Computer Projector LAN cable (straight) LAN cable (straight) Hub Attention fWhen a LAN cable is directly connected to the projector , the network connection must be made indoors. Note fA LAN cable is required to use the network function.
Chapter 5 Operations — Network connection 128 - ENGLISH fConnect a LAN cable to send/receive the Ethernet signal to the terminal or the terminal of the projector. fUse a straight or crossover LAN cable that is compatible with CA T5 or higher . Either the straight or the crossover cable, or both cables can be used depending on the system configuration. Consult your network administrator . The projector will determine the type of the cable (straight or crossover) automatically. f Use a LAN cable of 100 m (328'1") or shorter. Example of network connections via a twisted-pair-cable transmitter Computer Projector LAN cable (straight) LAN cable (straight) LAN cable (straight) Twisted-pair-cable transmitter Hub Attention f When a LAN cable is directly connected to the projector , the network connection must be made indoors. Note fFor the LAN cable between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector , use a cable that meets the following criteria: gConforming to CA T5e or higher standards gShielded type (including connectors) gStraight-through gSingle wire fThe maximum transmission distance between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector is 100 m (328'1"). 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. f When laying cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector , confirm that cable characteristics are compatible with CA T5e 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 hub between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector . fDo not pull cables forcefully . Also, do not bend or fold cables unnecessarily. fT o 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. fWhen laying multiple cables, run them side by side along the shortest distance possible without bundling them together . fAfter laying the cables, go to the [NETWORK] menu → [DIGITAL LINK STATUS] and confirm that the value of [SIGNAL QUALITY] is displayed in green which indicates normal quality. f For twisted-pair-cable transmitters of other manufacturers of which the operation has been verified with the projector , visit the Panasonic website (http://panasonic.net/avc/projector/). Note that the verification for devices of other manufacturers has been made for the items set by Panasonic Corporation, and not all the operations have been verified. For operation or performance problems caused by the devices of other manufacturers, contact the respective manufacturers. Setting the projector 1) Connect the projector to a computer using a LAN cable. 2) T urn on the power of the projector. 3) Press the button to open the [NETWORK] menu, select [NETWORK SETUP], and press the button. 4) Perform the [NETWORK SETUP] setting. fRefer to [NETWORK SETUP] ( x page 123) for details. Note f To connect to an existing network, perform after consulting your network administrator.
