Does Panasonic TC-P42S1 takes about 12 seconds to power on? Is this normal?

Have you found an answer to your question? I'm experiencing a problem with the power up of my panasonic viera. There's no troubleshooting guide information regarding the red standby light, and I wanted to check around online before I called a technician in (I've only watched a few dvds since I've had it, but it was working before--wondering if I've done something to it by accident).

When plugged into power, the monitor still appears to be "off," with no blue screen or anything. When a video signal is supplied, the monitor powers on in under a second, but I don't know exactly how quick. The screen goes black (off) as soon as the video signal stops. Hope this helps!

I don't know if this applies to your situation, but when I first installed mine and turned it on the unit had to run for about 3 or 4 minutes before the compressor kicked in. This has also been the case when I unplugged it to move to a different outlet. The operating manual does mention that this is normal.

Electronic multiple function products with microprocessors some times become "confused". I would first kill the power to the unit completely for at least 5 minutes, then turn it back on and run the initial set up procedure. If this does not solve the issue then you would need to decide if you want to try dealing with customer service or just replace the unit.

The product should power on immediately upon receiving power. In the worst case, you'll have to turn it on with the included board once, and then it should behave the way you want it. I built this into a case of mine not too long ago and needed this behavior.

same thing happens if you use the TV's USB power, it turns on when the TV does. Takes about a minute to boot up. Buyer beware though, these things suck, mine broke after 2 weeks

If it doesn't come on when you press the power button, try holding down the power button for about 30 or 40 seconds. Let it up and wait about 10 seconds. Then press it again normally and see if it comes on.

Sorry, I've never really timed it. I know it is at least 4 hours, and maybe it is more. But the last computer I used had had a bad battery for so many years, that I had almost forgotten I could ever use a computer that was not plugged in. Not that it matters, but I purposely ordered this computer with Windows 7 because I did not want to use Windows 8 on a computer that was not touch screen. I have had the computer for about a month and haven't had any problems so far, unlike the person who wrote the previous comment.

I have about 15 in operation and they take from 1/2 to 2 seconds to come on. None are instant on.

you can wait for a 10 minutes and try again to turn on......is normal your case.

If I remember right it was about 4.5 hours but I suppose it depends on the charging device. In the Panasonic HC-V750 it was about 4.5 hours.

This depends on so many things, including how much load the computer/monitors/etc. are taking, and how old the battery is. A nice thing about this model is that it has a digital readout which will tell you how many minutes. Generally, it will be a few minutes only.

No clue. I just bought this unit so that if we have a momentary power outage my DirectTV Reciever does not have to reboot, which can take 15 minutes. I have my TV and Stereo unit hooked up to this one, and it gives me almost an hour of backup time.

It will take a minute to come on. It will auto power down if the unit sits ideal........ther is no power switch poor design not having a power switch.

Those green panos take a while to charge up anyway. but.. incase of anything being defective, check to see if the batteries are flipped in the wrong position, for any kind of overloading heat, also if the batteries were totally dead you are looking at probably 6 to 8 hours to charge all the way up. If after 8 hours and nothing something is defective.

It doesn't take long maybe less than a minute...... You probably got a bad one.... Check to see if you have it connected correctly... if that is not the issue return it for a replacement that works, you will not be disappointed if you get one that works.

If your machine is turned off, it usually takes about 30 seconds, if it is already on and ready, it'll usually take about 6-8 seconds
