, to accommodate various installation
conditions. The lens-centered design contributes
to easy installation.
Multi-Unit Brightness Control
This function automatically corrects the bright-
ness fluctuations that occur over time in the
individual projectors of a multi-screen system. Up
to eight projectors can be controlled by connect-
ing to each other via a hub, and this can be
increased to a maximum of 2,048 projectors by
using “Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Soft-
ware Ver. 2.7.”
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 indi-
vidual projectors. The PC software assures easy,
accurate control.
•
Multi-Screen Processor
: The PT-DZ21K Series
can project large, multi-screen images without
any additional equipment. Up to 100 units (10 ×
10) can be edge-blended at a time.
Geometric Adjustment for Specially Shaped
Screens
(PT-DZ21K/DS20K)
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.
Optional Upgrade Kit
(ET-UK20)
Featuring
Geometry Manager Pro
(PT-DZ21K/DS20K)
The new Geometry Manager Pro software includ-
ed in the optional upgrade kit supports Color
Matching and Edge Blending 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.
Multiple Terminals
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.
Multi Projector Monitoring & Control
Software Ver. 2.7
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 moni-
toring/controlling PC.

factory in Japan, under strict quality
control. This is another, very important
advantage of a Panasonic projector.
