Notes on Projector Placement and Operation

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

1.Never place objects on top of the projector while it is operating.

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

3.Do not stack projector units directly on top of one another. If two units must be stacked for back- up use in ordinary projection, use a method as shown below and provide ample space between the units to ensure that exhaust heat does not accumulate near the intake opening or around the units. Dual stacked projection of the PT-D5700/D5700L is not recommended.

4.If the projector is placed in a box or enclosure, ensure the temperature of the air surrounding the projector is between 0°C/32°F and 40°C/104°F *. 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.

*Even when the ambient temperature near the intake opening is 40°C/104°F or lower, an accumulation of hot air inside the cabinet may cause the protective circuit to activate and shut down the projector. Please give ample consideration to the design with regard to ambient temperature conditions.

500 mm/19.2˝ or more

500 mm/19.2˝ or more*

100 mm/ 3.9˝ or more

500 mm/19.2˝ or more*

Do not stack projector units directly on top of one another.

*Minimum distance when two units are used together. Keep 300 mm/11.8˝ or more when a single unit is used.

Operating the Projector Continuously

1.If the projector is to be operated continuously 24 hours a day, use the dual-lamp optical system’s alter- nating 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.

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

PT-D5700, PT-D5700L specifications

The Panasonic PT-D5700 is a versatile and powerful projector that is designed to deliver high-quality images for a wide range of applications. It is particularly well-suited for large venues, such as auditoriums, conference rooms, and educational institutions. One of its standout features is its exceptional brightness, with a luminous flux of up to 5700 lumens, making it capable of producing clear and vibrant images even in well-lit environments.

The PT-D5700 utilizes a dual-lamp system that ensures reliability and longevity. The dual-lamp configuration not only enhances brightness but also provides a backup lamp in case one lamp fails, which is crucial for critical presentations and events. This projector supports a range of resolutions, with its native resolution of 1024 x 768, allowing for detailed and sharp images that hold up well in both video content and presentations.

One of the key technologies employed in the PT-D5700 is the Digital Light Processing (DLP) system, which contributes to precise color reproduction and high contrast ratios. With a contrast ratio of 2000:1, this projector is able to render deep blacks and bright whites, leading to more dynamic and engaging visuals. Additionally, Panasonic's proprietary BrilliantColor technology enhances color accuracy, ensuring that images appear true to life.

The PT-D5700 is equipped with a range of connectivity options, including HDMI, VGA, and composite inputs, making it compatible with a variety of devices. It also features built-in wireless capabilities, allowing users to connect their devices without the need for cumbersome cables. This enhances the overall user experience, offering flexibility during presentations.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the PT-D5700 is its efficiency in power consumption. With an energy-saving design, the projector operates quietly while generating less heat, which in turn contributes to a longer lifespan for both the projector and its lamps. The easy maintenance design, including access to lamps and air filters from the front, ensures that users can quickly perform necessary upkeep to keep the projector functioning optimally.

Overall, the Panasonic PT-D5700 combines high brightness, advanced projection technologies, and user-friendly features, making it a reliable choice for professionals seeking effective display solutions in demanding environments.
