Precautions for use

This product has been specially designed for commercial use. As such, it should be used and operated only by persons with related expertise.

The liquid crystal parts are fabricated using high-precision technology. The screen has effective pixels that cover more than 99.99% of its area, but pixels may be missing or remain permanently lighted (red, blue and/or green) in less than 0.01% of the area. This is not indicative of malfunctioning.

The panel which protects the liquid crystal display has been specially treated.

Do not wipe it with hard cloths or rub it heavily as this will damage the surface of the panel.

If a still image is displayed continuously for a long period of time, the image may be burnt onto the screen for some time.

(The shadow of the image will usually disappear after moving images are displayed for while.)

The response speed and brightness of the liquid crystals will vary with the surrounding temperature.

Do not expose the liquid crystal display to strong light, as it could cause a deterioration in the display characteristics and reduce the display quality.

Do not keep in an environment where the temperature changes suddenly, because condensation could form on the surface of the liquid crystal or in the internal parts and cause a reduction in the display quality or a malfunction.

Screen irregularities may be generated when certain images are displayed.

If the unit is left for a long time in a location with a high temperature or humidity, it could change the characteristics of the liquid crystal panel and cause irregularities.

Outline

The BT-LH80W is a thin and lightweight liquid crystal monitor designed especially for broadcasting service and business use. It is equipped with a 7.9-inch V (effective display area) liquid crystal display panel.

It can be used as a VF (viewfinder) for broadcasting and business cameras made by Panasonic.

Equipped with a new IP conversion circuit, the circuit processing greatly reduces time delays

A new I/P conversion circuit has been introduced that converts and generates SD and HD interlace signals to high-precision progressive signals without generating time delays per field.

Equipped with a diagonal line correction processing circuit

By detecting correlations in the field in the diagonal direction in addition to the vertical direction, the unit performs the optimum interpolation to minimize the rough noise occurring in the diagonal direction and create a smooth image.

New functions that support focus adjustments

• FOCUS-IN-RED function

The section of the image that is being focused is displayed in an easy-to-understand red, making camera focus adjustments very easy.

• PIXEL TO PIXEL function

The input signal is displayed without being resized, greatly facilitating camera focus adjustments.

If you are not resizing the image, you can check the image by expanding a 1080/60i signal to the equivalent of an image approximately 19 inches wide.

Thin, lightweight, compact and low energy consumption

The unit has a compact body that makes the most of the thin and lightweight characteristics of LCD panels, with a depth of 64.7 mm (2-9/16 inches) and a weight of 1.5 kg (3.3 lb).

Further, it is compatible with HD and has low energy consumption.

Turn “ON” the external DC power supply switch.

3.

(Where the external DC power supply has a power switch)

Turn “ON” the POWER switch on this unit.

If an external DC power supply is used, then check the ratings of the external DC power supply so that they are compatible with those of this unit.

Check the pin arrangements of the DC output terminal of the external DC power supply and those of the DC

IN socket of this unit so that their polarities are correctly arranged.

If +12 V are supplied to the unit’s GND terminal by mistake, this may cause fire or injury.

<Notes>

• Use a shield cable with a length of 2 m (6.56 feet) or less for the DC cable. Use of cords any longer than

2 m (6.56 feet) may result in noise appearing on the screen.

• If the battery pack and an external DC power supply are connected simultaneously, then the external DC power supply will have priority.

If the external DC power supply is used, then the battery pack may be fitted or removed.

• If an external DC power supply is used, then make sure that the external DC power supply is first turned

ON, then this unit is turned ON. If they are turned ON in the reverse order, then this unit may malfunction, because the output voltage of the external DC power supply will gradually increase.

• Input voltage that above the specification is not displayed accurately.

About IP Mode

By selecting “MODE1”, you can convert IP through Frame Interpolation.

This unit has reduced the Frame Interpolation delay to 1 field or less, compared to our old models having caused

1 frame delay or more.

Factory preset setting value is “MODE1” recommended for normal use. Depending on images, in very rare cases, noise may occur on the screen. In such a case, “MODE 2” is recommended.

By selecting “MODE2”, you can convert IP through Field Interpolation.

Since MODE2 interpolates only within each Field, it is suitable to confirm interlace condition.

Depending on still images, etc., flickers may occur on the screen. In such a case, “MODE1” is recommended.

WB adjustment mode

You can adjust “WHITE BALANCE VAR1” - “WHITE BALANCE VAR3” (WB) by selecting “VAR1” - “VAR3” in

“COLOR TEMP.” in the “VIDEO CONFIG” menu.

Maintenance Inspections

Maintenance inspections are necessary for the user to use this equipment safely. It is important to keep monitor functions in good condition at all times through periodical and appropriate maintenance. In order to use this monitor for a long time, and to make full use of all of its functions, be sure to carry out the following maintenance inspections.

1. Necessity of periodical maintenance services

A backlight is used in the liquid crystal panel. This part (consumable) deteriorates as time passes, and can cause performance levels to drop, or may cause a malfunction.

Therefore, in addition to the after-service repairs performed if a malfunction occurs, it is essential that general servicing and maintenance servicing are conducted on a regular basis, to prevent malfunctions and accidents caused by the deterioration of consumable parts, and to keep the monitor working normally.

2. Standard maintenance time guidelines and items to be performed

The following maintenance performance times give standard guidelines for when to perform maintenance, and do not indicate the individual lifespan of your equipment. Also, note that the deterioration time varies depending on the usage environment and way in which the equipment is used.

Error/Warning Displays

If for any reason an error occurs in the unit, the user is alerted of error or warning with the following displays.

Error/Warning Display Solution

Inverter error

Warning of improper operation status for the camera settings

All the lamps on the side of picture adjusting knobs flash at

1-second intervals.

Switch the power supply OFF once, then switch it back ON again. If an error is still displayed, contact the vendor where you purchased the unit.

Check the setting values of the camera.

Battery level warning

Battery level error

The voltage display flashes.

“END BATTERY” is displayed for approximately 3 seconds before the power supply switches OFF.

Replace with a fully charged battery.

Maintenance

• To clean the cabinet or surface of the liquid crystal protection panel, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth dipped in a weak detergent solution and then wrung-out to clean the surfaces, then use a dry cloth to finish. Water or similar substances getting inside the monitor can cause a malfunction.

• Never use thinner or benzene to clean this unit.

Doing so would cause the surface of the monitor to become discolored, and cause paint to peel.

• Do not spray cleansers directly onto the monitor.

Water or similar substances getting inside the monitor can cause a malfunction.
