Bright, Vivid Images that Deliver All the Emotion and Excitement

Dynamic Iris: Deeper Blacks, Brighter Whites, and Vivid, True-to-Life Color

Incorporating Panasonic exclusive technology, the Dynamic Iris opens and closes with exceptional speed and precision as the input signal changes, resulting in accurate, real-time control of the light striking the DLP

chips. The Dynamic Iris is positioned immediately after the light synthesizer and before the integrator, so it has minimal adverse effect on the overall light uniformity across the screen.

Dynamic Iris and Dynamic Gamma

Dynamic Iris quickly fine-tunes the lamp output with 256-step precision.

Dynamic Gamma preserves the brightness in bright portions, helping maintain a wide dynamic range.

Competitor B

Thanks to functions such as lamp po

wer switching, the blacks are not washed out. The white portions, however, become dim and dull.

Competitor A

Blacks and other dark portions are washed out.

LampLamp

Dynamic Iris

Only a projector that offers superior brightness and contrast can give you vivid,

faithful reproduction of images that have both light and dark areas, such as a star-

ship in outer space or a face partly cloaked in shadow.

A projector like Panasonic’s PT-DW7000U-K.

The PT-DW7000U-K combines outstanding 6,000-lumen brightness with 4,000:1

contrast*. Also featuring Texas Instruments DLP

technology and unique 16:9 wide-

aspect panels (1,366 x 768), this 3-chip DLP

projector truly excels in the projection

of various sources.

The PT-DW7000U-K also adds features such as Dynamic Iris, which improves con-

trast by matching the lamp output to the input signal. The liquid-cooled optical

engine boosts both reliability and durability while greatly reducing operating noise.

The PT-DW7000U-K is suitable for a wide variety of applications, from boardrooms,

conference rooms, and post-production to broadcasting.

in a

Sleek, Compact Body

A Light, Compact, 3-Chip DLP®Projector for Large-Venue Use

The PT-DW7000U-K combines a 3-chip system based on DLP

technology with a high-precision optical system developed using our exclusive technology. We have dramatically reduced the cabinet size, creating a unit with only onefifth the volume of conventional large-venue 3chip DLP

projectors. With a weight of 48.5 pounds (22.0 kg), the PT-DW7000U-K can go places other bulky 3-chip projectors with DLP

technology have never gone before.

Superb Image Quality

Native 16:9 Panels

The PT-DW7000U-K is the world’s first 3-chip DLP

installation projector with 16:9 wide aspect panels. Unique to Panasonic, these panels let the PT-DW7000U-K project wide-screen images without sacrificing the superior image quality provided by DLP

technology. They also fit more information onto a PC screen.

Image Quality from 3-Chip DLP

Technology

DLP

technology delivers outstanding image

resolution. In 3-chip systems with DLP

technology— considered among the world’s most advanced projector engines—a DLP

chip is

allocated to each of the red, green, and blue signals. This gives systems with DLP®technology superior light utilization for high brightness, digital processing for low noise and linear white balance, extended device life for minimal image degradation, and a quick response that eliminates afterimages.

Powerful 6,000 Lumens

In addition to the 300-watt UHM

™

lamp, the PT-DW7000U-K incorporates digital and optical technologies that maximize the DLP

technology advantages. They deliver 6,000 Lumens of brightness, offering superior color reproducibility.

Astounding 4,000:1 Contrast Ratio with Dynamic Iris

Panasonic’s original Dynamic Iris achieves a dramatically improved contrast ratio of 4,000:1 in the PT-DW7000U-K. Dynamic Iris constantly monitors the input signal, and adjusts the intensity of the light source to match it. This highly advanced function provides high-speed, linear response to changing images with 256step precision. It also combines with dynamic gamma control to produce deep, rich blacks while preserving the brightness in the lighter portions of dark scenes.

16-Bit Color Depth for Film-Like Natural Image

Applying 16-bit drive to each of the RGB panels produces 8 times the level of expression (a total of 24 times for all three RGB panels) of conventional 13-bit drive devices. This system creates extremely smooth tonal expression with approx. 65,000 shades of gradation.

Progressive Cinema Scan (3/2 Pulldown)

This interlace/progressive conversion technology automatically detects when the input signal is derived from filmed material and selects the optimum progressive processing method to assure faithful reproduction of the original image. It is also compatible with the high-definition 1080i format.

Dynamic Sharpness Control

The Dynamic Sharpness Control circuit adjusts the video signal waveforms based on the difference in the brightness of adjacent pixels for a sharp, clear picture that is relatively unaffected by signal noise.

High Reliability and Easy Maintenance

Liquid-Cooling System

In systems with DLP

technology, the micro-

scopic mirrors of the DLP

chip turn the light on and off. During the off period, light is directed away from the lens. Handling the heat from this light is a major point in maintaining the long-term performance of projectors with DLP

technology. Panasonic’s newly developed liquidcooling system extends projector performance and attains a high level of reliability.

Dust-Resistant Optical Block

The dust-resistant design of the optical block helps ensure that 3-chip projectors with DLP

technology will continue to deliver crisp, sharp, high-resolution images over an extended service life.

Dual Lamp System and Lamp Relay Function

The use of two lamp systems increases brightness and eliminates the need to interrupt a presentation if a lamp burns out (in dual lamp operation mode). In single lamp operation mode, the lamp relay function greatly extends continuous operating time.

Optional Long-Life Lamp

A long-life lamp that stretches lamp life to 4,000 hours is available as an option. In single lamp operation mode, the lamp lamp relay function allows non-stop operation 24 hours a day for up to 47 weeks without replacing the lamps. The use of UHM

™

lamps dramatically

cuts operating costs.

Easy Lamp Replacement

The PT-DW7000U-K is designed to allow easy lamp replacement with the projector in its fully mounted condition. The lamp itself is the only

part that needs to be replaced, which further increases overall reliability.

Dust Filter Cleaning

The dust filter is easy to clean, and you don’t have to make any changes in the projector’s mounting condition. This helps to minimize user down time.

Flexible System Applications

Horizontal/Vertical Lens Shift

The PT-DW7000U-K is equipped with a motordriven lens shifting function that moves the lens left, right, up, and down. It gives you easy, accurate adjustment when installing the projector.

Optional Lenses for Various Venues

A wide range of optional lenses with different throw distances are available. An optional lens with super-long focal lengths (throw ratio of 8.2 to 15.4) is ideal for use in churches or screening rooms. These powered zoom/focus lenses enable the projectors to perform superbly in an array of projection environments, from classrooms to conference rooms. It’s a snap to replace the “click-in” type lenses used in the bayonet system of the PT-DW7000U-K.

Connection Terminals

The PT-DW7000U-K feature two RGB inputs, a composite video input and output, and an SVideo input. They also offer RS-232C/422 input and output, two remote inputs, and one remote output.

Abundant Optional Interface Boards

In addition to the supplied connection terminals, an optional board module can be selected from a total of four boards to match a variety of input source signals, including digital serial component signals.

Quiet Operation

The PT-DW7000U-K is designed for quiet operation. A newly developed liquid-cooled optical system and noise-suppression duct and control system help minimize operating noise. The fan rotation can now be adjusted in finer steps, so fan noise is reduced when rotation adjusts to match room temperature changes. This helps minimize sudden increases in fan noise during operation.

Built-In Multi-Screen Processor, Color Matching and Edge Blending

ULTI-SCREEN PROCESSOR

The PT-DW7000U-K can project large, multiscreen images without any additional equipment. Up to 100 units (10 x 10) can be edgeblended at a time.

OLOR MATCHING

When several units are used together, this function corrects for slight variations in the color reproduction range of individual projectors. The PC software assures easy, accurate control. Independent, 7-axis adjustment (red, green, blue, yellow, magenta, cyan, white) ensures high precision and minimizes color variations. To simplify the set-up process, you can adjust the projectors before delivering them to the presentation site. The colormatching function accommodates up to nine units, for multi-screen or single screen presentation.

DGE BLENDING

This function controls the brightness at overlapping image edges to assure uniform, natural-looking, multi-screen images. When projecting HD sources with a single projector, part of the DLP

chip is unused. In multi-screen

projections with two projectors, the DLP

chips increase the image’s horizontal resolution while maximizing vertical resolution.

Networking (Optional)

Wired LAN System

The optional interface board ET-MD75NT for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX makes the PT-DW7000U-K network-ready. Simply hook the projector up to an existing LAN network for easy remote control and/or monitoring. System administrators will appreciate this feature when using the PT-DW7000U/U-K as a fixed-installation projector.

Web Browser Control/Monitoring

Anybody can operate the PT-DW7000U-K by remote control or monitor its status over a LAN network, because it is all done using the computer’s familiar Web browser.

E-Mail Message Alert

The PT-DW7000U-K automatically sends an email message to notify the operator when an error has occurred, or a lamp needs to be replaced, providing an advanced level of maintenance ease and reliability.

Controlling and Monitoring Multiple Projectors

Panasonic’s original“Multi Projector Monitoring and Control”* freeware allows the user to control and monitor multiple projectors via LAN. When a problem occurs, an alarm message is sent to the controlling/monitoring PC.

* Available in June 2008. Please consult a sales representa-

tive if necessary.

NOTES ON USE

1. Do not install the projector in locations that are subject to excessive water, humidity, steam, or oily smoke. Doing so may result in fire, malfunction, or electric shock.

2. The projector uses a high-voltage mercury lamp that contains high internal pressure. This lamp may break, emitting a large sound, or fail to illuminate, due to impact or extended use.

3. The projector uses of high-wattage lamp that becomes very hot during operation. Please observe the following precautions.

• Never place objects on top of the projector while it is operation.

• Make sure there is an unobstructed space of 500 mm or more around the projector’s exhaust openings.

• Do not stack projector units directly on top of one another for the purpose of multiple (stacked) projection.

When stacking projector units, be sure to provide the amount of space indicated between them. These space requirements also apply to installation where only one projector unit is operating at one time and the other unit is used as a backup.

• If the projector is placed in a box or enclosure, ensure the temperature of the air surrounding the projector is

between 0°C and 35°C. Also make sure the projector’s intake and exhaust openings are not blocked. Take particular care to ensure that hot air from the exhaust openings is not sucked into the intake openings.

4. If the projector is to be operated continuously 24 hours a day, use the dual-lamps optical system’s alternating lamp operation (lamp changer) function.

• The projector cannot be operated continuously 24 hours a day in dual-lamp mode.

• Allow a minimum of two hours per day of non-operation time per day if the using the dual-lamp mode.

5. The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short periods.

• The length of time that it takes for the lamp to break or fail to illuminate varies greatly depending on individ-

ual lamp characteristics and usage conditions.

• The brightness of the lamp will gradually decrease with use.

6. Because the ET-D75LE5 is a fixed short-throw lens, the lens shift function cannot be used with it.

7. When the ET-D75LE6 is mounted to the PT-D7700 or PT-DW7000, the lens cover that is included with the projector cannot be used as is. Please use the lens cover that is included with the ET-D75LE6.
