Direct Power Off
You can turn off the room’s main power without waiting for the projector to
cool down, because the fan keeps operating until the lamp returns to room
temperature.
Easy Lamp Replacement
For easier maintenance, you can replace the lamp from the rear. The
lamp is easily replaced even after the projector is installed on the ceiling.
Furthermore, Panasonic PT-F300 Series projectors use the same lamp as
the Panasonic PT-F100/F200 Series projectors, for efficient lamp pur-
chase planning.
Easy Wireless Projection from Multiple PCs
(PT-FW300NTU/F300NTU)
With wireless capability, you don’t need cables to connect a PC. That
means it’s easy to bring in a laptop (with a wireless LAN function) and
deliver a smooth, hassle-free presentation. You can make the settings for
wireless connection quickly and easily using Wireless Manager ME 5.5
software. When the presentation is finished, Wireless Manager restores the
PC to its previous LAN settings, so the PC is ready to reconnect to your
LAN. Functions include Live mode and Multi-Live mode. In Live mode, the
image projected is identical to the image seen on the PC screen. In Multi-
Live mode, you can wirelessly connect with multiple PCs.*
