Industry’s Highest Level of Gradation Steps —
Advanced Real Gamma System
*3
Panasonic plasma display series uses ultra-precise, maximum 14-bit
signal processing to produce vividly rich details. The Advanced Real
Gamma System then takes it another step further with full-time, full-pixel
1,536-step gradation and 2,048-step dark-area gradation. This level of
gradation brings intricate details and more faithful colour reproduction to
all scenes, dark and bright.
* The equivalent of 4,096 steps of gradation can be displayed with DVI or HDMI connection.

The front protective glass of the plasma display panel incorporates a
Deep Black Filter that suppresses light transmittance and slashes the
amount of external light reflected. This technology helps these displays
achieve the industry's highest contrast ratio of 340:1

By reducing the pre-discharge emission when reproducing black, the
New Real Black Drive System provides deeper, richer blacks and a
stunning 4000:1 contrast*

. The result is dramatically enhanced image
clarity and realism.

Industry’s Highest Level of Brightness —
Advanced Plasma Panel
*3
Panasonic plasma display panels feature a bounded cell structure in
which wall-like ribs are used to wrap each individual cell. By increasing
the area in which the phosphor can be applied, this dramatically
improves both light-emitting efficiency and intensity. Furthermore, by
optimizing the gas composition ratio, lighting efficiency has been
increased by about 15%. The result is the industry’s highest level of
brightness. You see crisp and clear images even in bright rooms.
Advanced LCD Panel (TH-32LHD7 series)
Boasting an HD panel with 1,366 x 768 pixels, the TH-32LHD7 series LCD
model relays all the detailed beauty of high-definition images. It achieves
excellent brightness of 500 cd/m
2
with high contrast of 800:1. The result is
vibrant, finely nuanced images even in brightly lit rooms. The viewing angle of
170° in both horizontal and vertical directions ensures superior legibility over a
wide area.
Advanced Dual Picture Mode
Panasonic plasma displays feature a new Advanced Dual Picture Mode
in addition to the conventional Dual Picture Mode. This new mode lets
you overlay a video image onto a full-screen PC image. For example,
you can superimpose text information from a PC over a video clip,
giving you a more effective way to present information. When displaying
two separate images, you can select the audio output from either
source (previous models reproduced audio from the main source only).
Playing back the audio from the sub-source can be useful in
teleconferencing, for example.
Note: Plasma models cannot display two images when both are from component video
or RGB (PC) signal sources. The Advanced Dual Picture Mode may not work properly
with some video signals and is not available on the TH-32LHD7 series.
Multi-Screen Applications
*3
The built-in image-enlarging function makes it easier to set up a multi-
screen display system with four (2 x 2), nine (3 x 3), or 16 (4 x 4) units.
Thanks to the ID control function, you can use the standard remote
control unit to control multiple panels individually. There is also a mode
that displays a full-screen image, including the edges (the width of the
frame) of the display panel — something not possible with previous
systems. This is especially suitable for displaying text information, since
no words are hidden by the frame.
TULIP
Note: The ambient temperature varies depending on the installation location.
Provide sufficient air conditioning for surrounding conditions.
4x Digital Zoom
This function lets you enlarge a portion of an image by up to four times
normal size and display it on the full screen. Use this function to give
your presentations greater impact.
Note: Digital Zoom does not work in Dual Picture mode. Images of SXGA resolution or higher
from a PC or RGB source may not enlarge correctly. Some degradation occurs when
images are enlarged.
User-Friendly Remote Control
*3
Redesigned for easier operation, the remote control unit now
features a Power Off button and Direct input select buttons. It
also allows ID control in a multi-screen system.
New Cabinet Design
*3
Panasonic plasma displays (other than 65-inch model) introduce
simple, slim front bezel design. Control buttons and the Power button
are set on the bottom surface. This gives the panels a smooth, clean
look while also helping prevent accidental operation and tampering.
Enhanced Screen Saver Functions
*3
A variety of screen saver functions help minimise the risk of uneven phosphor
aging. You can also use the timer to set the screen saver operating cycles,
operating time, and start and stop times. This lets you make settings that match
your application.
• White Bar Scroll: White bars move across the screen from left to right at
regular intervals. Good for ordinary still-image displays.
• Screen Reversal: Displays images with the black and white reversed. Good for
text displays.
• Side Panel Adjustment: Brightens the black bands on the sides of the screen
when displaying images in the 4:3 format.
•Wobbling: Shifts the image's position by several pixels at fixed time intervals.
•Peak Limit Mode: Lowers the peak brightness level (image contrast) by 30%.
Energy-Saving Functions
A broad range of environment-friendly functions help minimise energy
consumption.
• DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling)
Power is automatically turned on or off in response to a sync signal from the PC
connected to the built-in PC input terminal.
• Auto Power Off
When you're using a device connected to the multi-function slots, the display
panel goes into standby mode after about 10 minutes if no sync signal is received.
• Power Save Mode
Reduces the display's brightness.
• Standby Power Save Mode
Reduces power consumption when on standby. (Start-up may take a few moments
once the display is in this mode.)
Sound Menu
*3
The Sound Menu gives you a choice of three sound settings
(Standard/Dynamic/Clear) to best match the kind of input source.
Fan-Less Quiet Operation
*3
Our "silence engineering" has eliminated the need for a fan — and fan noise —
giving you the kind of quiet operation that makes for a more pleasant viewing
experience.
(TH-65PHD8, 50PHD8 and 42PHD8 series feature a noise-suppressing silence design.)

Long Service Life of 60,000 Hours

A new drive circuit and inner panel improvements give Panasonic plasma panels a
long service life of approximately 60,000 hours*

even with their increased
brightness. A newly developed phosphor also raises the plasma displays’
resistance to static-image screen burning to the same level as CRT displays.
*5: The time until panel brightness is reduced to half its initial level, when displaying moving
images at standard mode. Excludes afterimages and malfunctions.
High-Precision MPD Noise Reduction
*3
This technology dramatically reduces MPD (Motion Picture Disturbance) noise to
deliver crisp, clean moving images. Using a Panasonic original algorithm, it detects
motion patterns that tend to generate noise and makes the necessary adjustments
to maximise image quality.
Active I/P Conversion
The Active I/P (Interlace/Progressive) Conversion system detects slow movements
more precisely by increasing the range for detecting moving-picture and still-
picture pixels. This reduces I/P conversion noise that often occurs when
reproducing tiny movements, thereby producing crisper images while raising the
vertical resolution in interlaced images.
3D Colour Management System
The 3D Colour Management System
achieves precise control based on
3D management in the colour
difference plane and brightness
directions. This finer level of control
produces more expressive images.
Note:The default setting for the 3D Colour
Management System is OFF.
Adaptive AGC
Adaptive AGC raises contrast while suppressing noise by detecting and boosting
only the image edges.
Note: The default setting for the Adaptive AGC is OFF.

Remote System Monitoring
In addition to the conventional display control command and power
supply/input selection check command, Panasonic flat panel displays
feature a new monitor command that lets you check the signal from a
distant location. In conventional systems, you had to install a monitoring
camera to check the images displayed on an advertising display panel
or digital signage system. This new monitor command, on the other
hand, lets you monitor images by simply connecting a PC via a serial
cable.
Vertical Mounting
*3
The 65-inch, 50-inch and 42-inch
models can be positioned vertically to
display portrait images, allowing them to
serve as effective storefront signboards.
There's no need to install an optional
fan kit.
Note: When using the display vertically, set it so the
power button is on top. The 37-inch & 32-inch
models cannot be positioned vertically.
