Features

ThePanasonic PT-DS12KU 3-Chip DLP Projectorfeatures a dual-lamp system that reproduces stunning lifelike visuals at a native SXGA+ resolution while providing full 12,000 lumens of brightness.

When in Lamp Relay mode, the projector eliminates any interruptions if a lamp should fail, and enables 24/7 projection. The projectors Dynamic Iris feature uses a scene-linking aperture mechanism to achieve a contrast ratio of 10,000:1 without lowering its brightness. This helps to reproduce deeper, richer blacks, and provides images with more detailed textures. An integrated Eco Filter combines with the dust-resistant cabinet to allow long-term use in harsh conditions, while a maintenance cycle of up to 12,000 hours reduces the time and cost of repair.

The wide adjustment range of the powered horizontal/vertical lens shift function can be easily adjusted with the remote control. The unit can also be rotated 360 vertically, to accommodate various installation conditions. The lens-centered design contributes to easy installation.

This Panasonic circuit optimizes the sharpness of each image, based on the superhigh-, high-, medium-, and low-frequency components of the extracted image information. The resulting images have more natural, lifelike expressions.

This projector can be easily operated remotely over a LAN network, because it is all done using the computer's familiar web browser. Furthermore, the projector sends an e-mail message notify the operator when an error has needs to be replaced.

The PT-DS12KU projector is compatible with both passive and active 3D projection systems. It combines with either a separate, external 100/120/144 Hz drive with IR emitter and active shutter glasses, or an active filter and passive glasses, for viewing 3D images.

Compact Yet Bright: Panasonic's original dual-lamp system, with its 380 W lamp, helps make the body compact, while providing 12,000 lumens of brightness with 120 VAC operation

SXGA+ Resolution: A native SXGA+ resolution brings you high detailed images

Dynamic Iris for a High 10,000:1 Contrast Ratio: Dynamic Iris uses a scene-linking aperture mechanism to achieve a 10,000:1 contrast ratio without lowering its brightness. This helps to reproduce deeper, richer blacks, and provides images with more detailed textures

Active 3D Projection Capability: This projector is compatible with both passive and active 3D projection systems. It combines with either a separate, external 100/120/144 Hz drive with IR emitter and active shutter glasses, or an active filter and passive glasses, for viewing 3D images

Detail Clarity Processor 3: This Panasonic circuit optimizes the sharpness of each image, based on the frequency components of the extracted image information. The resulting images have more natural, lifelike expressions

System Daylight View 2 for Enhanced Color Perception: This technology optimizes image quality to improve the color perception of the projected image in bright rooms. With a brightness of 12,000 lumens, it provides highly comfortable viewing even in bright lighting, and allows viewers to concentrate easily on the images

DICOM Simulation Mode: This imaging mode is similar to DICOM part 14, which is a medical imaging standard. It reproduces X-ray images with remarkable clarity. This product is not a medical instrument. Do not use it for actual medical diagnosis

Waveform Monitor Function: When the output level of the source device fluctuates due to the performance of the device or its cable connections, the original black and white levels of the image content cannot be reproduced correctly. With this projector you can view the waveforms on the screen and adjust the settings either automatically or manually as you prefer

Dual Lamp System: This system eliminates the interruption if a lamp should fail (in dual-lamp operation mode). The Lamp Relay Mode also operates the lamps alternately to enable 24/7 projection

Rec. 709 Mode for HDTV Projection: Color reproduction can be achieved by selecting this mode, compliant with ITU-R Recommendation BT.709, when images from an HDTV source are projected

Eco Filter that Needs No Maintenance for up to 12,000 Hours: The Eco Filter has an electrostatic Micro Cut Filter that collects minute dust particles with an ion effect. It combines with the dust-resistant cabinet to enable long-term use even under harsh conditions. Its maintenance cycle of up to 12,000 hours reduces hassle, and the environmental design lets you wash the filter with water and reuse it. Obviously, the usage environment affects the filter maintenance cycle

Low TCO and an Environmentally Friendly Design: This projector lowers the total cost of ownership because they have a lamp replacement cycle of up to 2500 hours. Their environmentally friendly design also includes a low power consumption of 980W

Easy Lamp Replacement: For easier maintenance, you can replace the lamp from the rear. This makes it easy to replace a lamp unit while the projector is still in the mounting bracket or dual stacked

Optional Smoke Cut Filter ET-SFD320: The projector can be equipped with an optional, extra-strong air filter to prevent the entry of smoke, such as those used for special effects at events and stage performances

Flexible Installation: The wide adjustment range of the powered horizontal/vertical lens shift function can be easily adjusted with the remote control. The unit can also be rotated 360 vertically, to accommodate various installation conditions. The lens-centered design contributes to easy installation

Lens Memory: The settings of projection size, lens shift position, and focus/zoom can be stored in memory and recalled for instant switching

Wide Selection of Optional Lenses: Choose from a wide lineup of lenses for your system, including short-throw, long-throw zoom and fixed-throw lenses for rear projection use. The additional lenses make it easy to adapt your projector to the installation site. The lenses attach and detach with one-touch ease

Geometric Adjustment for Specially Shaped Screens: This function adjusts the image for projection onto spherical, cylindrical and other specially shaped screens. You can make the adjustment easily using only the remote control, with no external equipment needed

Crestron RoomView: The LAN terminal allows a computer connected to the network to use Crestron RoomView application software to manage and control system devices

Optional Upgrade Kit Featuring Geometry Manager Pro: The Geometry Manager Pro Software included in the optional upgrade kit supports color matching, edge blending, uniformity correction, and other useful functions for multi-projector setups (maximum 32 units). It also allows creative masking using four lines or bitmap data. And its flexible and complex geometric adjustment capability suits a wide variety of screen shapes

Multi-Unit Brightness Control: This function automatically corrects the brightness fluctuations that occur over time in the individual projectors of a multi-screen system. Up to eight projectors can be controlled by connecting to each other via a hub, and this can be increased to a maximum of 2,048 projectors by using Multi Projector Monitoring and Control Software Ver. 2.8

Multi-Screen Support System Seamlessly Connects Multiple Screens: Edge Blending: The edges of adjacent screens can be blended and their luminance controlled

Color Matching: This function corrects for slight variations in the color reproduction range of individual projectors. The PC software assures easy, accurate control

Multi-Screen Processor: This projector can project large, multi-screen images without any additional equipment. Up to 100 units can be edge blended at a time

Portrait Mode Capability (Optional): Portrait projection is possible by mounting the optional ET-LAD320P or ET-LAD320PW lamp units, updating the projector's firmware to MAIN Ver. 2.00 or later, and installing the projector with its terminal side surface facing downward

Multiple Terminals with HD-SDI Compatibility: This projector has an array of terminals, including two SDI (Dual Link HD-SDI, 3G SDI and HD SDI), 3D sync, DVI-D and HDMI terminals

Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Software Ver. 2.8: Multi Projector Monitoring and Control Software Ver. 2.8 freeware lets you control and monitor multiple projectors at the same time over a wired LAN. If a problem occurs, an alarm message is sent to the monitoring/controlling PC

Web Browser Control: This projector can be easily operated remotely over a LAN network, because it is all done using the computer's familiar web browser. Furthermore, the projector sends an e-mail message notify the operator when an error has needs to be replaced
