Timer Programming
Timer Programming from Menu
The Timer Programming menu allows you to choose programmes that you want to remind watching or record to the external
recorder. At the correct time, the TV will tune to the correct channel even if the TV is in Standby mode.
TV Guide may also be used to set timer programming event (p. 20).
●
Timer Programming can store up to 15 events.
●
Timer Programming only works reliably if correct time information is received via the signal from the broadcaster or
service provider.
●
For recording using Timer Programming, the TV must be either on or in Standby. For reminders to be displayed, the
TV must be on.
●
No other channel can be selected while the recording of Timer Programming is in progress.
●
Recording an encrypted (copy-protected) programme may not be possible.
●
When recording programmes to the external recorder, be sure to make the proper settings on the recorder connected
to the TV. If a recorder compatible with Q-Link, VIERA Link or similar technologies is connected to the TV (p. 61, 62)
and [Link Settings] (p. 32) are completed, no setting of the recorder is required. Also read the manual of the recorder.
●
If the recorder is not compatible with Q-Link, VIERA Link or similar technologies, make timer programming of the
recorder. For preparations of a recorder, read the manual of the recorder.
●
Recording to the external equipment via SCART is always in standard definition (composite video), even if the
original programme is in high definition.
●
2 minutes before the starting time, a reminder message appears if you are watching TV.

■ Auto mode
Auto mode determines the best aspect ratio to fill the screen using a four step process (WSS, Control signal through
SCART / HDMI terminal, Letterbox detection or Justify to fill the screen).
This process may take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the image.
Letterbox detection:
If black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are detected, Auto mode chooses the best ratio and expands the
image to fill the screen.
If no aspect signals are detected, Auto mode enhances the image for optimum viewing pleasure.
Note
●
The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is out of the standard 16:9, black bands at the top and
bottom of the screen may appear.
●
If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the
tracking of the VCR. Read the manual of the VCR.

Maintenance
First, remove the mains plug from the socket outlet.
Display panel, Cabinet, Pedestal
Regular care:
Gently wipe the surface of the display panel,
cabinet, or pedestal by using a soft cloth to clean the
dirt or fingerprints.
For stubborn dirt:
First clean the dust on the surface. Dampen a soft cloth with
clean water or diluted neutral detergent (1 part detergent to 100
parts water). Wring the cloth and wipe the surface. Finally, wipe
away all the moisture.
Caution
●
Do not use a hard cloth or rub the surface too hard, otherwise this may cause scratches on the surface.
●
Take care not to subject the TV’s surfaces to water or detergent. Liquid inside the TV could lead to product failure.
●
Take care not to subject the surfaces to insect repellent, solvent, thinner or other volatile substances. This may
degrade surface quality or cause peeling of the paint.
●
The surface of the display panel is specially treated and may be easily damaged. Take care not to tap or scratch the
surface with your fingernail or other hard objects.
●
Do not allow the cabinet and pedestal to make contact with a rubber or PVC substance for a long time. This may
degrade surface quality.
Mains plug
Wipe the mains plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals. Moisture and dust may lead to fire or electrical shock.

  • Het stroomprobleem met deze TV, zoals hieronder beschreven, heb ik een paar jaar geleden ook opgelost door vervanging van onderdeel. Prijs inderdaad ook zo'n 160 euro. Nu, jaren later, iets 'nieuws'. TV stopte er plotseling mee, reageert nergens meer op. Stekker een tijdje er uit gedaan hielp niet. Nu, volgende dag nog steeds geen beeld, geen standby lampje, niets. Komt dit iemand bekend voor. Geen elektriciteit storing, ook geen stop doorgeslagen?? Gesteld op 24-10-2022 om 17:28

    • Heb je de spanning er al enige tijd geheel af gehad? Doe dat minimaal een uur en haal daarbij, indien mogelijk, ook alle kabels even los. Sluit dan nog niets aan, en kijk dan even of de Tv in dat geval wel aan blijft. Zet de Tv nu uit, en sluit vervolgens de kabels/apparaten weer en schakel daarna de Tv pas weer in.

  • Mijn Panasonic TX-P42X50E heeft grote moeite met zonder stroom te zijn geweest en vervolgens normaal functioneren. Maw. na een stroomstoring of het verplaatsen van de TV inclusief voeding naar ander stopcontact, dagen lang geen verbinding. Waardeloos systeem! Iemand ervaring hoe dit snel op te lossen? Dit keer verwachte ik door eerste netjes de TV vanuit standby echt uit te zetten, geen problemen te ondervinden. Helaas, het apparaat doet weer niets. Krijg geen standby lamp te zien, welke toets ik ook indruk. Ben benieuwd naar suggesties... Met groet, Paul Born Gesteld op 10-12-2018 om 17:45

  • Is een probleem bij dit en wat andere types en er is helaas geen echte oplossing voor. Vreemd, want ik verleende destijds ondersteuning voor Panasonic, en dat met name voor de Plasma, en zag dit verschijnsel eigenlijk nooit langskomen. Ik heb dan ook al meerdere Plasma schermen in gebruik gehad, overigens nog, waarbij alleen meteen uit- en inschakelen niet wil, maar dat geen enkel probleem is als je zo'n 30 seconden wacht. Hier dan ook al eens laten weten dat het natuurlijk absurd is dat het dagen duurt voordat het weer werkt en dat daar tevens geen oplossing voor is bedacht.

  • Dan is toch de elektronica niet heel lekker meer. Normaal gesproken mag dit natuurlijk niet gebeuren. Maar het wil soms helpen de kabels los te nemen, en vervolgens de aan/stand-by toets enige tijd ingedrukt te houden. Echter kan het ook gebeuren dat er een defect ontstaat in dergelijke gevallen en vaak gaat het dan om condensators die vrij eenvoudig zijn te vervangen. Maar dan moeten deze uiteraard geen andere componenten 'meenemen'.

  • Hallo bij mij is afgelopen nacht het stroom uitgevallen door blikseminslag hier in de buurt.
    Nu heb ik het stroom er weer op gezet en de tv doet het wel gewoon alleen de hdmi doet het niet meer althans hij gaat wel in de stand maar het beeld blijft zwart. Het gaat hier om de tx-p42x50e heb ook al andere kabels geprobeerd die ik nog in huis had liggen maar dit werkt ook niet. Ook de tv terug gezet naar fabrieksinstellingen maar dit heeft ook niet geholpen. Heeft iemand enig idee hoe ik dit op kan lossen zonder weer kosten te hebben van een reparatie.

    Ook heb ik last gehad dat de tv niet meer aan wou nadat de tv van het stroom werd gehaald. Eerste keer dat dit gebeurde was met een verhuizing toen bleek dat de printplaat van de aan uit knop vies was. Dit is toen schoongemaakt en koste mij toen 20 euro. Nu is het weer gebeurt en bleek dat de voeding stuk was deze is toen gemaakt voor 80 euro. Ik heb dit laten doen bij een witgoedwinkel en niet door panasonic zelf en ook niet door de mediamarkt waar ik destijds de tv heb gekocht.

    • Dag Prescilla,

      je weet wel zeker dat de juiste HDMI ingang is geselecteerd? Zo ja, dan is het goed mogelijk dat het HDMI board het heeft begeven. Elektronica kan doorgaans slecht tegen een spanningspiek/dip en ondanks dat de Tv nog werkt, kan er zeker ook wat beschadigd zijn.

      Is dit het geval, dan kun je dat echter opgeven bij de verzekering, want je bent hiervoor verzekerd. Het hoeft je dus niets te kosten, maar dan moet je wel zeker weten dat geen van de HDMI ingangen werken, en je moet er dan dus even achteraan bij je verzekering, met de vermelding van de oorzaak.

  • Hallo Willem

    Ja op beiden hdmi ingangen geeft hij alleen maar zwart beeld ben al bij de witgoedwinkel geweest om te vragen maar die hebben hier nog nooit van gehoord dat alleen dat onderdeel stuk gaat. De laptop die ik via hdmi aansluit geeft wel aan dat hij de panasonic tv ziet en kan vinden maar voor de rest krijg ik alleen geen beeld. Heb vanmorgen een nieuwe hdmi kabel gekocht want dacht eerst dat het daar aan zou liggen maar dat is dus niet het geval. Ik zal morgen nog eens naar de winkel gaan om te vragen en de verzekering bellen. Dank je voor je antwoord.

  • Dag Prescilla,

    ik weet niet wat voor winkel dat is, maar het komt zeer regelmatig voor dat een HDMI board defect raakt. Vooral de laatste tijd is dat een hot item bij b.v. receivers, maar ook bij Tv's. Je kan dat absoluut van me aannemen. Googel maar eens op: 'defect hdmi board'. Het Internet is daar aardig mee gevuld.

    Het gaat om zeer gevoelige elektronica, dat niet bestand is tegen pieken/dippen, maar zelfs al defect kan gaan, als je de HDMI kabels aansluit/omwisselt terwijl een apparaat is ingeschakelt. Sluit je dus iets aan, zorg dan altijd dat een apparaat stand-by of uit staat.

    Maar daar je aangeeft dat de stroom was uitgevallen door blikseminslag in de buurt, waarbij ook nog vaak de aardlekschakelaar in je woning uitschakelt, geeft dat wel aan dat er iets flink mis is gegaan en een piekmoment in de spanning is dan zeker niet uitgesloten. Dat moment hoeft maar even te duren, maar kan wel apparatuur beschadigen. En het kan zomaar voorkomen dat veel van de apparaten blijven werken, maar ook dat er zomaar een tussenzit die wel schade oploopt.

    Het kan zelfs nog gebeuren, dat het met apparaten die nu nog perfect werken, later alsnog misgaat. Bij een spanningsval ofwel een dip, kan hetzelfde gebeuren.

    Voor een piekspanning zijn apparaatjes in de handel welke je in de contactdoos kan plaatsen en zorgen dat de spanning van die doos eraf gaat als de spanning ineens piekt. Daarin gaat dan de stekker van je apparaat, of van de verdeeldoos. Dat gaat razendsnel, maar is desondanks nog regelmatig te traag.

    Een HDMI board kan dus door meerdere oorzaken defect raken en tegenwoordig zelfs regelmatig spontaan, maar gezien je situatie kun je dat echt wel opgeven aan de verzekering, daar de situatie wat dat betreft 'gunstig' is. Maak de winkelier dus maar niet wijzer dan deze is, want dit is geen toeval.

    Veel succes en is er wat, schroom niet.

      ik adviseer je even wat vragen en antwoorden door te nemen op dit forum, daar er al wat tips zijn gegeven. Maar ik zou ook zeker eens contact opnemen met Panasonic, want dit is niet normaal. Je kan een Tv in bepaalde gevallen niet meer direct inschakelen nadat de spanning er is afgeweest, maar dat duurt normaal maar enkele minuten.

      Ik heb een oudere Plasma en deze is, net als de Plasma schermen die ik eerder had, gewoon direct in te schakelen.

    Inmiddels doet de tv het weer (na ongeveer 3 dagen stroomloos te zijn geweest), maar ik ben het met je eens dat dit absurd is, zeker voor deze tijd! Ik zou het begrijpen als er een uurtje van je geduld gevraagd zou worden eer de tv het weer zal doen, maar dagen????

  • Ik heb meerdere Plasma's gehad en gebruik die nog, maar wat hier gebeurt heb ik in al die tijd (bijna 10 jaar) dat ik ondersteuning verleende aan Panasonic, m.n. voor de Plasma Tv, nog niet gezien. Ik heb er nu ook een staan die gewoon weer zijn werk doet, als de spanning eraf is geweest en opnieuw wordt opgestart. Deze doet het vrijwel meteen. Dat heb ik bij de andere modellen net zo ervaren, en eerder gaf ik aan dat je een Tv niet meer gelijk kon inschakelen na een spanningsuitval, maar ik moet dat eigen rectificeren in "soms kun je een Tv niet meer direct inschakelen na een spanningsuitval" maar dat duurt dan maar even.

    Zoals eerder gezegd: hier gaat iets gigantisch mis. Spreek de dealer of Panasonic hier op aan en laat je niet afschepen met l@l praatjes. Dit klopt gewoon niet. Daar kan ik heel kort over zijn. Ik zou dit dan ook zeker niet accepteren en je kan dit als verkoper of bedrijf ook niet aan je klanten uitleggen. Ik zou me kapot schamen als ik zou moeten vermelden dat men even ene paar dagen moet wachten, 'want dan doe ie het waarschijnlijk weer'. Dat kun je gewoon niet maken!

  • Na het geheel spanningsloos zetten is een Tv tegenwoordig vaak niet meer direct in te schakelen. Met steeds weer de stekker uit de contactdoos te nemen, maak je het alleen maar erger. Maar dat mag eigenlijk maar even duren.

    Ik deed vooral voorheen, toen de Plasma Tv er nog was, elders veel ondersteuning voor deze toestellen en heb het er al eerder met Panasonic over gehad het vreemd te vinden dat men werd en word geadviseerd, de Tv dagenlang zonder spanning te zetten als er even een spanningsuitval is geweest.

    Dat was bij de eerdere modellen nooit het geval en wijst naar mijn idee simpwelweg op een defect of tekortkoming in de nieuwe modellen. Het is niet de bedoeling bij de nieuwere modellen de spanning steeds van de Tv te halen met b.v. een geschakelde contactdoos of stand-by killer, maar het is natuurlijk absurd dat je een Tv een dag of 3-4 niet meer kan gebruiken als deze wel even zonder spannning heeft gestaan.

    Ik heb hier nog wat oudere modellen, die dat euvel ook niet kennen. Die werken meteen weer als de spanning eraf is geweest.

    Natuurlijk is het fijn als je bent geholpen met de tips, maar het is een 'oplossing' die er bij mij niet ingaat. Ik zou dan ook meteen terug gaan met zo'n toestel. Het is ook niet voor niets dat er juist bij de nieuwere modellen zoveel uitval is, met b.v. de voeding.

    Maar ook als de Tv spontaan niet meer wil inschakelen, mag het niet nodig zijn zo lang te wachten voordat deze weer gaat werken. Veel mensen zullen dan al denken dat de Tv defect is. Kijk maar eens op marktplaats, hoe vaak er Tv's worden aangeboden die niet meer inschakelen of waarbij de led een keer of 7 knippert en dan stopt.

    Ik ben een Plasma fan, maar dit is niet zoals het hoort.

Dan zit je aan kosten vast of kan je Tv te kliko in, terwijl men weet dat er wat mis is. Dat moet dan toch worden opgelost!

    Laat ze dan in ieder geval met een nette coulance regeling komen, want dit kan natuurlijk niet. Als consument heb je rechten hoor.

Toen de Plasma uit het beeld verdween is ook mijn ondersteuning voor hen een beetje gestopt, maar desondanks staat hier nog steeds een Plasma, evenals bij mijn beide dochters en ik heb nog nooit deze stappen hoeven nemen. En ook zij hebben nooit problemen, dus als dit zich voordoet is er absoluut iets mis.

Ik begrijp er niets van, maar goed, ik heb me vaak genoeg geuit, ook naar Panasonic toe en zij kwamen en komen niet met een echt goede oplossing.

    En dat zal nu helemaal niet meer gaan gebeuren, want de Plasma is er alweer even uit en vaak zijn er nog amper onderdelen te verkrijgen. En men zal zich om voornoemde reden ook niet meer zo druk maken om de Plasma schermen welke nog aanwezig zijn of rouleren...

    • Ja, dat kan. Daarvoor maak je gebruik van de analoge uitgangen op de Tv. Het geluid op de Tv zelf blijft gehandhaafd, maar is uiteraard handmatig omlaag te zetten, of soms uit te schakelen in het menu.

      Maar als je gewoon het volume verlaagd, blijft deze stand gewaarborgd. De Tv onthoud n.l. elke instelling. Ook deze.

    • Dat is een kwestie van smaak. Vaak vinden mensen de muziek instelling het fraaist, maar dan zullen bas en treble evengoed naar smaak moeten worden ingesteld.
