- PT-DZ21K Series
- System and Installation Flexibility with Diverse Functions
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.
* A special fixture must be attached to the lamp case when the projector is placed at an angle within ±30° (upward/downward) of the vertical.
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 & Control Software Ver. 2.7.”
The Multi-Screen Support System optimally adjusts multiple screens: Edge blending, color matching.
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.
Multi-Screen Processor
The PT-DZ21K Series can project large, multi-screen images without any additional equipment. Up to 100 units (10 x 10) can be edge-blended at a time.
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.
The new Geometry Manager Pro software included in the optional upgrade kit ET‐UK20 supports Color Matching, Edge Blending, uniformity correction, and other useful functions for multi‐projector setups (max. 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.

Masking Function
Set masking by line.
Use it to overlap the projection image.
The image is projected only in the designated areas.
Create masking data.
Use it to overlap the projection image.
The image is projected only in the designated areas.
* Detailed masking is also possible with an image of up to 1,920 by 1,200 pixels for the PT-DZ21K and 1,400 by 1,050 pixels for the PT-DS20K.
The PT-DZ21K Series has an array of terminals, including DVI-D, HDMI and two RGB inputs.
The PT-DZ21K and PT-DS20K feature a 3D-ready HD/SD-SDI input and 3D sync terminals to connect an emitter for 3D projection.
New Portrait mode allows portrait projection with the PT-DZ21K Series. By mounting the optional ET-LAD510P or ET-LAD510PF lamp unit and updating the projector's firmware to MAIN Ver. 2.00 or later, the PT-DZ21K Series can be installed in portrait orientation with its terminal side surface facing downward.
Portrait mode adds more solutions for projection mapping, staging, and other needs.
Note: Please contact your sales representative for information on portrait orientation.
* Please contact the sales representative with regard to the frame for portrait orientation. Installation is possible only with the terminal side facing downward. Horizontal rotation and vertical rotation are both limited to 15 degrees. Also, the lamp replacement cycle becomes 500 hours, and this cycle is affected by the usage environment.
** The ET-LAD510P and ET-LAD510PF cannot be used when the projector is in landscape orientation.
Panasonic’s original Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Software Ver. 2.7 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. The terminal connection area is LED illuminated, and a backlight is provided for the control panel buttons, ensuring smooth and easy operation in the dark.
