MULTI-LAMP OPTICAL SYSTEM
With Panasonic's original four lamp
system, the PT-D10000U 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-D10000U is the world's first*1projector with an
automatic filter cleaning system. When you switch on the
projector*2, the air filter operates and the brush of the auto
cleaning "robot" removes dust from the filter. This prevents the
clogging results in malfunctions and other problems.
*1 As of Decemder, 2006. *2 When using the timer, you cannot set the filter
to be cleaned more than once every 24 hours. Cleaning occurs either when the
system is switched on or when it is cooling down when the specified cleaning
time comes. The timer can be set to any time between 00:00 and 23:50 in 10-
minute increments. You can also manually clean the filter using the menu on
the on-screen display. *3 Individual lint particles and pollen are examples of
dust with a size of 10 microns.
Dramatically reduced the size, and enabled 120-VAC operation.
1/2 CONCEPT
This is the first*1projector with a brightness of 10,000 lumens or more to
operate on 120 VAC. And Panasonic's new liquid-cooling system made it
possible to significantly downsize the PT-D10000U, making it one of the
most compact in its class. The size is 30% smaller than our previous
model*2, and the weight and volume are 70% less than our previous model.*2
The PT-D10000U also offers flexible installation and is easy to operate.

Lamp replacement cycle and
brightness guidelines
A new filter in the air intake section traps dust
particles that are 10 microns*3or larger. By
capturing approximately 7 times as much dust
as our previous filters, it guards against optical
blocks and reduces the penetration of dust into
to the interior to provide stable operation by, for
example, preventing drops in brightness.

HIGH RELIABILITY
Liquid-cooling system
Panasonic's original liquid-cooling system
directly cools the DLP®chips, which extends
the PT-D10000U's performance and attains a
high level of reliability.
New cooling structure
In order to further enhance the cooling
efficiency, we completely revised the
placement of various internal components
and combined this with our 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.
Web browser control/
monitoring and
e-mail message alert
Lamp LED indicator and
self-diagnosis function
Anybody can operate the PT-D10000U 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-D10000U sends an e-
mail message to notify the operator when an
error has
occurred, or
a lamp needs
to be replaced.
Panasonic

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-D10000U 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 synthesizer 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.
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.
3D color management system
Compensation provides optimal levels of color
saturation, hue, and brightness that were not
possible with conventional projectors.
Colors approach those of the original image,
even on large-screen displays.
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.
Progressive cinema scan
(3/2 pulldown)
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.

Built-in multi-screen support system
The PT-D10000U can project large, multi-screen images
without any additional equipment. Up to 100 units (10 x
10) can be edge-blended at a time.
Multiple terminals including DVI-D and LAN slots
Multi-screen processor
When several units are used together, this function
corrects for slight variations in the color 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 minimizes color variations.
Color matching
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.
The PT-D10000U 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 D-
sub 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-D10000U is HDCP*-compliant and
thus meets a broad range of projection needs.

*When edge blending and color matching are set, the brightness and color balance at the boundaries where screens are joined
may lack uniformity due to differences in the uniformity of the screen gain directivity, the brightness of each lamp mode, etc.
Panasonic works from every angle to minimize
environmental impact in the product design, production
and delivery processes, and in the performance of the
product during its life cycle. The PT-D10000U reflects
the following ecological considerations.
•Lead-free solder is used to mount components to the printed
circuit boards.
•The non-coated cabinet enables easy recycling.
•
Lamp power switching further reduces power consumption.
• Auto Power Save activates standby mode when no signal is input.
•The packing case and operating manual are made from
recycled paper.

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 for the purpose of multiple (stacked) projection.
When stacking projector units, be sure to provide the amount of space indicated below between them.
These space requirements also apply to installations where only one projector unit is operating at one time
and the other unit is used as a backup.
4. If the projector is placed in a box or enclosure, ensure the temperature of the air surrounding the projector
is between 0˚C and 35˚C. 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.
5. Because the ET-D75LE5 is a fixed short-throw lens, the lens shift function cannot be used with it.
Operating the Projector Continuously:
1. If the projector is to be operated continuously 24 hours a day, use the multi-lamp optical system's
alternating lamp operation (lamp changer) function. The projector can be operated continuously 24 hours
a day in four-lamp operation mode,but it will automatically operate with three lamps for 8 hours of the
24 hours.
2. The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short periods.
• The projector uses a high-voltage mercury lamp that contains high internal pressure.
This lamp may break, emitting a large sound, or fail to illuminate, due to impact or extended use.
The length of time that it takes for the lamp to break or fail to illuminate varies greatly depending on
individual lamp characteristics and usage conditions.
• The brightness of the lamp will gradually decrease with use.
