Panasonic Projector PT-D10000E

World's smallest* DLP™ system projector with 10,000 lumens of brightness

Outstanding 10,000-lumen brightness and superb image quality

• High brightness — 10,000-lumen
• High contrast ratio — 5,000:1
• High image quality — SXGA+

Thanks to Panasonic's four lamp system, the new PT-D10000E delivers 10,000 lumens of brightness. And with Panasonic's dynamic iris technology, it achieves a super-high 5000:1 contrast ratio. Also featuring 3-chip DLP™ technology that provides high resistance to deterioration due to aging, the PT-D10000E is a durable and reliable performer.

Minimal downtime, high efficiency, and a bright picture.

Multi-Lamp Optical System - With Panasonic's original four lamp system, the PT-D10000E generates 10,000-lumen brightness. If one lamp burns out during operation, the remaining lamps provide plenty of light to continue projecting. A lamp relay mode is also included. Extended, continuous operation is possible by lamp mode selection.

Provides 2,000 hours of use without filter maintenance.

Auto Cleaning Robot (ACR) - The PT-D10000E is the world's first projector with an automatic filter cleaning system. When you switch on the projector, the air filter operates and the brush of the auto cleaning "robot" removes dust from the filter. This prevents the clogging that results in malfunctions and other problems.

Dramatically reduced size, weight and volume.

Panasonic's new liquid-cooling system made it possible to significantly downsize the PT-D10000E, making it one of the most compact in its class. The size is 30% smaller than the previous model*, and the weight and volume are 70% less than the previous model*. The PT-D10000E also offers flexible installation and is easy to operate. * PT-D9510/PT-D9610

High Reliability

New cooling structure - In order to further enhance the cooling efficiency, Panasonic completely revised the placement of various internal components and combined this with their popular cooling system to enable use in temperatures up to 45°C. This allows use in a wider variety of environments, and keeps the operation more stable even in harsh conditions.

Liquid-cooling system - Panasonic's original liquid-cooling system directly cools the DLP™ chips, which extends the PT-D10000E's performance and attains a high level of reliability.

Web browser control/monitoring and e-mail message alert - Anybody can operate the PT-D10000E by remote control or monitor its status over a LAN network, because it is all done using the computer's familiar web browser. Furthermore, the PT-D10000E sends an e-mail message to notify the operator when an error has occurred, or a lamp needs to be replaced.

Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Software - Panasonic's original ''Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Software'' 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.

Lamp LED indicator and self-diagnosis function - The projector body is equipped with a temperature alarm LED and a burnt-lamp alarm LED (for lamps 1 to 4). In previous models, the LED indicator was visible only from the front. In the PT-D10000E the LED is visible from both front and top, so you can see it easily even if the unit is hung from the ceiling. Information on the location of the error is also given in the on-screen display. A self-diagnosis function is also provided. Error codes displayed on the 3-digit, 7-segment LED on the side of the projector tell the operator where the problem is.

High Image Quality/Flexible Installation

Dynamic iris - Incorporating exclusive Panasonic 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 synthesiser and before the integrator, so it has minimal adverse effect on the overall light uniformity across the screen.

Full 10-bit picture processing - The use of a full 10-bit image processing system provides smooth tonal expression. For example, skin tones appear natural and true to life.

3D colour management system - Compensation provides optimal levels of colour saturation, hue, and brightness that were not possible with conventional projectors. Colours approach those of the original image, even on large-screen displays.

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.

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

Horizontal/Vertical lens shift - A wide adjustment range for the horizontal/ vertical lens shift assures virtually distortion-free images and adds convenience and versatility. Fine adjustment is made within ±50 % from center in the vertical direction and within ±30 % from center in the horizontal direction. (Horizontal: powered, Vertical: powered) *For the ET-D75LE6, the adjustment is within ±40 % in the vertical direction and ±20 % in the horizontal direction

Optional lenses for various venues - Seven optional lenses with different throw distances are available. These powered zoom/focus lenses enable the projector to perform superbly in an array of projection environments. The lens cover opens in both front and top directions, making it easier to install the lens by viewing the mark on the top of the lens.

Multiple System Appliance

Built-in multi-screen support system
Multi-screen processor
The PT-D10000E can project large, multi-screen images without any additional equipment. Up to 100 units (10 x 10) can be edge-blended at a time.
Colour matching
When several units are used together, this function corrects for slight variations in the colour 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 minimises colour variations.
Edge blending
The edges of adjacent screens can be blended and their luminance controlled. For example, the adjoining edges in a 2x2 multi-screen system can be blended to create a smooth, seamless image.

Multiple terminals including DVI-D and LAN slots - The PT-D10000E comes equipped with DVI-D and LAN (PJ-Link™) slots. It also features an array of terminals, including two RGB inputs, a 5-BNC connector and Dsub HD 15-pin, serial in/out, S-video input, two remote inputs, and one remote out. In addition to offering DVI-D control, the PT-D10000E is HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection)-compliant and thus meets a broad range of projection needs.
