A built - in digital tuner with Pro - idiom compatibility eliminates the need to install a separate set - top box, which provides strong FTG (Free - to - Guest) content and support.

A terminal adapter is included, removing the need to connect to any additional devices and simplifying installation. As there is no need for an additional set - top box, space is saved and troubleshooting is facilitated. Cloning can be done with an SD card, allowing for the easy transfer of all settings to a large number of units without having to set up individual TVs by remote. The LRU20 Series is designed for simplified connections to many external devices, while existing devices can be quickly linked via the RS - 232C interface. Soundbar - type home theater systems and other high - end audio systems can be added by digital connection.
Panasonic LCD TV LRU20 Series features
The In - Plane Switching (IPS) panel features a wide viewing angle of 178 degrees, ensuring that guests enjoy clear, easy - to - see images from virtually anywhere in the room. Panasonic’s exclusive Fine Black Panel achieves stunning images with deep, rich blacks. The Intelligent Scene Controller produces crisp images with high contrast ratios. Guests can use the displays’ SD card slot for large - screen viewing of digital camera images stored on SD Memory Cards. Because the displays support RS - 232C external control devices, they can be connected to AMX or Crestron devices, which provide controlling devices that allow guests to operate room lighting and air conditioning from the HDTV’s remote. These new displays are lightweight, with built - in rear speakers and a stylish matte black bezel that blends in with any type of setting. The LRU20 Series is equipped with a locking pedestal stand that rotates 90 degrees in both directions (there is choice of 30, 60 or 90 degree settings).
