Switching Off The Projector; Direct Power Off Function - Panasonic PT-DX820 Operating Instructions Manual

Chapter 3 Basic Operations — Switching on/off the projector
Note
f When the projector is switched on for the first time after purchase, as well as when [ALL USER DATA] is executed from the [PROJECTOR
SETUP] menu → [INITIALIZE], the focus adjustment screen is displayed after projection starts, then the [INITIAL SETTING] screen is
displayed. Refer to "When the initial setting screen is displayed" (x page 57) for details.

Switching off the projector

3)
1) Press the power standby <v> button.
f The [POWER OFF(STANDBY)] confirmation screen is displayed.
2) Press qw to select [OK], and press the <ENTER> button.
(Or press the power standby <v> button again.)
f Projection of the image will stop, and the power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> on the projector body
lights in orange. (The fan keeps running.)
3) Wait until the power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> on the projector body lights in red (and the fan
stops) for 170 seconds.
4) Press the <OFF> side of the <MAIN POWER> switch to turn off the power.
Note
f Do not switch on the projector and project images immediately after switching off the projector.
Turning on the power while the lamp is still hot may shorten the life of the lamp.
f For about 75 seconds after the projector is switched off and the luminous lamp cooling is started, the indicator will not light up even if
the power is switched on. Even after 75 seconds, the lamp may not light up if the projector is switched on. In such a case, switch on the
projector again after the power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> lights in red.
f The projector consumes power even when the power standby <v> button is pressed and the projector is switched off if the main
power of the projector is on.
When the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [STANDBY MODE] is set to [ECO], use of some functions is restricted, but the power
consumption during standby can be conserved.

Direct power off function

Even if the <MAIN POWER> switch is turned <OFF> during projection or immediately after turning off the
luminous lamp, the fan runs using internally stored power to cool the luminous lamp. When the projector is
mounted on the ceiling or installed in an environment where the <MAIN POWER> switch of the projector cannot
be easily turned <OFF>, the power can be turned off directly using the circuit breaker. It is also safe in case a
power outage occurs or the power cord is pulled out immediately after the projector is switched off.
Note
f If the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [INITIAL STARTUP] is set to [LAST MEMORY] and the projector was turned off by using the circuit
breaker directly while projecting during the last time of use, the power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> will light in green a while after the
circuit breaker is turned on, and then projection of the image will start.
f If cooled with the direct power off function, it may take longer than usual to be ready for projection when the projector is switched on the next
time.
f Make sure that the fan is not running when packing the projector for transportation or storage.
