Contrast Sync and Shutter Sync via LAN Cable Only
Traditionally, Dynamic Contrast control operated individually for each projector in a multi-screen system, leading to step noise in blends due to variations in the Average Picture Level (APL). Panasonic’s Contrast Sync resolves this issue by using the average APL of all projectors in the system, resulting in a seamless multi-screen image. The RQ7 Series is the first Panasonic projector to support Contrast Sync via LAN cable only, eliminating the need for a serial cable connection and reducing system complexity. Additionally, the shutter timing of all sub-projectors is synchronized with the main projector via the LAN connection, ensuring cohesive fade-in/fade-out effects across the entire projection.
Import and Save Custom Test Patterns
In addition to 10x built-in test patterns, users can import and save 4x custom images in JPEG, BMP, or PNG format to an RQ7 Series projector via its Web Control UI or USB memory device for use as test patterns, start-up logos, and no-signal screensavers. Installers can calibrate projectors using client content or custom images without connecting to a media source device.
Note: This function replaces Logo Transfer Software.
Quickly Find the Projection Angle with Angle Monitor
The RQ7 Series supports 360° projection angles, enabling image mapping on floors, walls, and 3D objects. However, aligning the projection angle with the design simulation can be challenging and requires two people. The projectors feature a built-in gyro sensor detecting changes in the projector’s pitch and roll angles, graphically displayed in the OSD settings menu. Installers can adjust the projection angle without needing assistance.
Note: The displayed values are based on the results of angle sensor detection and may differ from the actual projection angle. They are for reference only, and accuracy is not guaranteed.
Refreshed Web Control User Interface
The RQ7 Series features an updated Web Control UI supporting dark and light modes. Information within the UI is reorganised for improved visibility. You can set projector command schedules such as power on/off, view the projector’s OSD settings menu on the PC screen, and customise device status info on the Home screen. Other updates include adaptive screen sizes and enhanced mobile versions, empowering efficient management.
Eco-Friendly Innovation with Proven Reliability
Dust-Resistant Optical Engine
The RQ7 Series’s optical engine and laser light source conform to the IP5X Dust Protected (IEC 60529)(1) standard. This eliminates the need for a filter and enables 20,000 hours(2) of maintenance-free projection. Reliability is proven by accelerated dust-chamber testing in significantly dustier conditions than those in which some competitive products are tested.
(1) The Dust Protected performance of this unit is not guaranteed to be free from damage or failure under all conditions (environment with conductive dust, etc.). Please use an enclosure in environments with smoke containing oil, salt, and moisture.
(2) Around this time, the light output will have decreased by approximately 50 %. IEC62087: 2008 Broadcast Contents, [NORMAL] Mode, [PICTURE MODE] set to [DYNAMIC], Dynamic Contrast [3], temperature 35 °C (95 °F), elevation 700 m (2,297 ft) with 0.15 mg/m3 of airborne particulate matter. Panasonic recommends a checkup at the point of purchase after about 20,000 hours. Light-source lifetime may be reduced depending on environmental conditions. Replacement of parts other than the light source may be required in a shorter period. Estimated maintenance time varies depending on the environment.
Eco Boost Maintains Perceived Brightness with Reduced Consumption
A new Eco Boost mode further reduces energy consumption when Dynamic Contrast is enabled while maintaining perceived brightness.
Note: Graphic is simulated for illustrative purposes only.
Reducing Environmental Impact with Recycled Materials
In addition to using responsibly procured materials, the plastic parts in the main projector body contain about 73%(1) recycled resins, reducing the utilisation of virgin materials. By supporting eco-friendly manufacturing processes and pursuing recycling-based programs at end-of-life, your organisation helps minimise environmental impact throughout the product’s lifecycle.
(1) By weight of the total mass of plastic parts in the projector main unit. Excludes projection lenses, printed circuit boards, labels, cables, connectors, electronic components, colour sensor cases, optical components, ESD components, EMI component adhesives, and coatings.
Backup Input Redundancy
Two identical signals can be simultaneously transmitted to HDMI™ 1 (Primary) and HDMI™ 2 (Backup). If transmission to the primary input is interrupted, the projector switches to the backup automatically in a minimum of 0.3 seconds(1) without screen-blanking. This layer of insurance gives greater peace of mind during events where image display can’t be interrupted.
(1) Varies depending on the Backup Input mode and the connected external device.
Note: Primary and backup terminal assignments are fixed. The input signals to primary and backup inputs must be identical.
Multi-Laser Drive Engine Enhances Reliability
Multiple laser modules are equipped with Failover Circuitry. In the unlikely event a single diode fails, Failover Circuitry continues to supply electricity to the functional diodes in the series, minimising brightness loss. If the same issue were to occur in projectors without Failover Circuitry, all diodes in the module might shut down, resulting in a significant loss of brightness.
Reduce Errors with Remote Preview LITE
Remote Preview LITE allows projectionists to confirm connectivity and assess image adjustments before the video is projected by viewing preview thumbnails on a laptop. This is valuable at live events where checking content on the screen is limited due to sound checks and other logistical factors. Accessible via software or web browser, it works with the projector in Standby(1) or with the shutter on, minimising errors before performances.
(1) Projector must be set to Pre-Show Mode.
Note: Requires Multi-Monitoring & Control Software Version 3.3 or later
