WARNING:
Installation should only be performed by qualified
installation personnel.
Improper installation may result in the entire
apparatus falling down and causing injury.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).
NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
REFER TO SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol,
within an equilateral triangle, is intended to
alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.
WARNING:
This equipment must be grounded.
To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug must
be inserted only into a standard three-pin power
outlet which is effectively grounded through
normal household wiring.
Extension cords used with the equipment must
have three cores and be correctly wired to provide
connection to the ground. Wrongly wired extension
cords are a major cause of fatalities.
The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily
does not imply that the power outlet is grounded
or that the installation is completely safe. For your
safety, if you are in any doubt about the effective
grounding of the power outlet, please consult a
qualified electrician.
WARNING:
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose this equipment to rain or moisture.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, keep
this equipment away from all liquids. Use and
store only in locations which are not exposed
to the risk of dripping or splashing liquids, and
do not place any liquid containers on top of the
equipment.
WARNING:
This equipment is compliant with Class A of
CISPR 32.
In a residential environment this equipment may
cause radio interference.
WARNING:
Always keep switch blank caps (large)/(small) and
memory cards (optional accessories) out of the
reach of babies and small children.
WARNING:
Fuse replacement should only be performed by
qualified personnel.
For continued protection against risk of fire,
replace only with the same type; 3.15 AH - 250 V
fuse for F1/F2.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock and
annoying interference, use the recommended
accessories only.
CAUTION:
In order to maintain adequate ventilation, do
not install or place this unit in a bookcase, built-
in cabinet or any other confined space. To
prevent risk of electric shock or fire hazard due to
overheating, ensure that curtains and any other
materials do not obstruct the ventilation.
CAUTION:
The mains plug of the power supply cord shall
remain readily operable.
The AC receptacle (mains socket outlet) shall
be installed near the equipment and shall be
easily accessible. To completely disconnect this
equipment from the AC mains, disconnect the
power cord plug from the AC receptacle.
CAUTION:
This apparatus can be operated at a voltage in the
range of 100 – 240 V AC.
Voltages other than 120 V are not intended for
U.S.A. and Canada.
Operation at a voltage other than 120 V AC may
require the use of a different AC plug. Please
contact either a local or foreign Panasonic
authorized service center for assistance in
selecting an alternate AC plug.

6 <ME CHG> button
Switches the display of the multi-selection panel area to the menu for changing ME which is the operation target.
7 Wipe direction selection buttons
Selects the wipe direction when executing the background transition. The operation is not performed when the transition is a key.
<N> button Wiping proceeds in the normal direction.
<R> button Wiping proceeds in the reverse direction.
<N/R> button The normal direction is replaced with the reverse direction (or vice versa) when the transition is completed.
fOn/off of the <N>/<R> button is also switched according to the wipe direction.
8 Fader lever/transition status
Used to execute background or key transitions. When the lever is moved as far as it will go, the transition is completed. If the fader lever has been
operated during auto transition, auto transition will be switched to manual operation as soon as the fader lever position overtakes the amount of the
transition being executed.
For details on the transition status display, refer to “Transition status display” (page 12).

rTransition status display
Fig. 1 Fig. 2 Fig. 3 Fig. 4
The transition status display at the left side of the fader lever indicates not the lever position but the amount of transition, and also works during auto
transition.
During pattern limitation, the amount of limitation will also be displayed. (Fig. 1)
If the fader lever position and the amount of images do not match after memory playback or auto transition execution, every other display will be
displayed. When displayed at one side (Fig. 2, Fig. 3), push the lever towards the displayed side to make the lever position recognize.
If multiple operations of BKGD and KEY1 to KEY4 are performed in the next transition, both sides may become unmatched. In such a case, the display
will be like Fig. 4, so move the fader lever back and forth to make the lever position recognize.
