Panasonic PT-LB78VE Projector User Manual


 
Quick and Easy Set-Up for Flexible
Presentations
The Wireless Manager ME5.5 application
that is included with the projector makes it
easy to send and display a computer screen
when the PC and projector are connected to
a wired or wireless*
5
LAN system. You can
also send audio*
6
and video*
7
files. The
application is compatible with both Win-
dows
®
and Macintosh, and can be used
with a wide range of computers. Wireless
Manager ME 5.5 operation can be control-
led with the launcher that is displayed on
the PC screen. Its graphic display further
simplifies operation. When connected to a
wireless LAN*
5
system, you don’t need to
connect a VGA cable to the PC, so set-up is
quick and easy, and the layout is highly
flexible. You can also project several PC
screens, so meetings with a large number
of participants can proceed smoothly.
Multi-Live Mode
You can simultaneously display up to 16
computer screens, opening the door to a
variety of new projector applications.
Projector Signal Map (S-MAP)
The Projector Signal Map graphically dis-
plays all of the presently connectable pro-
jectors in three levels that indicate the
strength of the wireless signals between the
projectors and your computer. This lets you
easily search for the projectors you want
even when wireless projectors are being
used in adjacent conference rooms or
classrooms.
Easy Remote Operation
A Web browser on a computer connected
through a wireless*
5
or wired LAN system
lets you remotely operate projectors and
check their status. An e-mail messaging
function can also notify you when a lamp
needs replacement, and indicate the overall
projector status. In addition, Multi Projector
Monitoring and Control Software*
8
is availa-
ble for monitoring and controlling multiple
Panasonic projectors from a single PC. The
wired LAN terminal is compatible with
PJLink™(Class1), an open protocol that is
used by many manufacturers, to enable
integrated control of systems that contain
different brands of projectors.
