Panasonic Professional DisplaysDisplays
The Panasonic family of professional displays can be controlled with Mira Connect™, Aveo Systems’ smart control appliance. Mira Connect communicates and controls the Panasonic displays over an Ethernet network or RS-232, supporting power on/off and source selection of the display.
To get started, create a room in Mira Portal (https://mira.aveosystems.com), and pair a Mira Connect controller to the room or select UI Preview to preview and use simulated equipment.
Add a Panasonic display to the room by clicking ADD and select Panasonic Display from the equipment list.
For the Connection Type, select Ethernet or RS-232 over Ethernet depending on how Mira Connect will communicate with the display. Enter the display’s IP address, and click ‘Add Equipment’. Mira Connect will connect to the Panasonic display and show the status of the connection.
Mira Portal will show the equipment status as a green circle if the IP address is valid and Mira Connect can connect and control the display, otherwise the warning symbol, ! , will appear indicating the IP address is not correct, the RS-232 baud rate is not set correctly on the Global Cache IP2SL interface (for RS-232 over Ethernet), or the device at that IP address is not a Panasonic display.
Select the desired video inputs to used on the display by selecting Edit from the device’s menu, and select the Video Inputs tab. To enable an input, select the input, choose an icon, and enter text labels for the desired input. This will create a display menu as shown in the figure below. While not all inputs are available on all display models, select the inputs that will be used on your display. An optional display name may be entered which is useful if you have multiple displays in a room.
Click ‘Update Equipment’ when done.
See the Mira Connect Administrators Guide for more information about using Mira Portal to configure Mira Connect or see the training videos for examples.
Important information about the integration is summarized below.

Mira Connect Integration with Panasonic Professional Displays
Control Interface OptionsThere are two network control options for controlling Panasonic displays. Regardless of which control option is used, set a static IP address, or use a ‘reserved’ lease on a DHCP server to ensure the IP address does not change over time.
1. Network connection using TCP, port 1024 (Ethernet).
The network driver is compatible with Protocol 2 in ‘non-protected mode’ as described in the display’s user manual. Non-protected mode requires that there be no web control password set. Protocol 2 can be enabled from the display’s setup menu as described in the display’s user manual.
To remove the web control password, browse into the display using the IP address of the display (default IP is 192.168.0.8) and use the default credentials of admin1 and panasonic for user name and password, respectively. Select Change password, select the Administrator account, and click Next. Enter the existing user name (admin1) and password (panasonic), and enter the new user name as admin1 but don’t enter a new password. Press OK when done.

2. Network connection using TCP, port 4999 when using the Global Cache IP2SL for RS-232 control (RS-232 over Ethernet)
If using the RS-232 over Ethernet option, see the Global Cache integration guide for set up information. Ensure the RS-232 baud rate on the Global Cache IP2SL matches the baud rate configured for the display. Default RS-232 settings for Panasonic displays are 9,600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.
RS-232 control requires a straight-through RS-232 9-pin Female to Female cable between the Global Cache IP2SL and the display that you provide as shown in the following figure.
