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 motor- driven 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 screen- ing rooms. These powered zoom/focus lenses enable the projectors to perform superbly in an array of projection environments, from class- rooms 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 S- Video 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 termi- nals, an optional board module can be select- ed from a total of four boards to match a vari- ety of input source signals, including digital serial component signals.
Connection terminals
An optional board module can be added for more connection flexibility.
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
MULTI-SCREEN PROCESSOR
The PT-DW7000U-K can project large, multi- screen images without any additional equip- ment. Up to 100 units (10 x 10) can be edge- blended at a time.
COLOR MATCHING
When several units are used together, this function corrects for slight variations in the color reproduction range of individual projec- tors. 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 color- matching function accommodates up to nine units, for multi-screen or single screen pres- entation.
EDGE BLENDING
This function controls the brightness at over- lapping image edges to assure uniform, natu- ral-looking, multi-screen images. When pro- jecting 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

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 com- puter’s familiar Web browser.
E-Mail Message Alert
The PT-DW7000U-K automatically sends an e- mail message to notify the operator when an error has occurred, or a lamp needs to be replaced, providing an advanced level of main- tenance ease and reliability.
Controlling and Monitoring Multiple Projectors
Panasonic’s original “Multi Projector Monitoring and Control”* freeware allows the user to con- trol and monitor multiple projectors via LAN.
When a problem occurs, an alarm message is sent to the controlling/monitoring PC.
