With next-generation DLP™ technology delivering high-resolution detail, dual laser modules for high brightness, Quartet Color Harmonizer to reduce energy loss from the light source, and robust heat-resistant phosphor wheel, Panasonic’s 1-Chip DLP™ SOLID SHINE Laser system produces scintillating images with unfailing reliability.

In environments where full brightness is not necessary, such as surveillance, control, and simulation rooms, constant operation modes extend light-source replacement up to 87,600 hours* in Long Life 3 Mode—about 10 years of 24/7 projection—with consistent brightness and color performance.
* With Operating Mode set to Long Life 3. Long Life Mode is tested in a rear-box projection environment, which is not compliant with ASHRAE. 24 hours/day x 365 days/year x 10 years = 87,600 hours. Replacement of parts other than the light source may be required in a shorter period.

Heat-pipe cooling for the laser light source and a heavy-duty heat sink for the DMD module keep images crisp and bright while reducing fan speed, lowering noise levels and preventing distractions in quiet classrooms.

Dynamic Light Control directly modulates laser output to achieve high contrast with less power consumption. Digitally controlled frame-by-frame scene-linking modulation ensures highly precise adjustment of light output, while accurate contrast is delivered even when bright and dark scenes frequently interchange.

  

This unique Panasonic circuitry optimizes the sharpness of each image based on information gathered from four frequency bands of the video signal. The resulting images are expressed with natural, convincing realism.

Panasonic’s Daylight View Basic technology achieves sharp, easily viewed images by enhancing detail, particularly in dark areas of the image that are normally difficult to see in brightly lit rooms. A built-in sensor measures ambient light while Daylight View Basic adjusts halftone color and brightness according to the surrounding level of illumination.
 

A built-in short-throw lens is ideal for rear projection in dedicated boxes. With this lens, projection distance can be as little as about 1.2 m (3.9 ft) to produce a 70-inch-diagonal wide-screen image.

SOLID SHINE Laser technology enables free 360-degree installation through any axis. Together with powered lens shift and a wide range of optional lenses, the projector can be mounted in any way desired without picture distortion temporarily or in permanent applications.

DIGITAL LINK transmits uncompressed video, audio*1, and control commands through a single CAT 5e or higher STP cable for distances of up to 150 m (492 ft)*2. Optional DIGITAL LINK Switcher or Digital Interface Box further simplifies installation, reduces cabling and associated costs, and enhances reliability.
*1 Audio transmission depending on model’s audio capability.
*2 150 m (492 ft) transmission available only with ET-YFB200G DIGITAL LINK Switcher for signals up to 1080p.

Early Warning Software monitors the status of projectors and displays connected to an intranet, and informs the operator when an abnormality is detected or predicted, or when there are symptoms of trouble. This minimizes downtime to provide more stable operation.

Images are automatically* rotated depending on installation orientation—upside down on the ceiling or set on a table—using a built-in angle sensor.



* Manual setting also available via setup menu.

Push the ECO button on the remote control to set up Eco Management functions, including automatic brightness reduction in dim ambient lighting conditions, and power consumption reduction when no input signal is detected.
