Weights and dimensions shown are approximate. Specifications subject to change without notice.
*1 Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with ISO 21118 international standards.
*2 Smooth image reproduction may not be possible when a motion video signal with a vertical frequency other than 50 or 60 Hz is input.
*3 Shift range is limited during simultaneous horizontal and vertical shifting.
*4 WUXGA resolution is supported only when the signals are compliant with VESA CVT-RB (Coordinated Video Timing-Reduced Blanking).
*5 Contact your dealers for details when the control using RS-232C or RS-422 is required.
*6 The LAN terminal on the optional board will be inactivated after installation. Use the LAN terminal on the main unit.
*7 Average value. May differ depending on models.
*8 The operating temperature range is 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F) when used in High-Altitude mode (1,400 m [4,593 feet] to 2,700 m [8,858 feet]).
Also, if the ambient temperature exceeds 40°C (104°F) (35°C [95°F] in High-Altitude mode) when using all four lamps, the light output may be
reduced approximately 30% to protect the projector.
*9 Operation range differs depending on environments.

• The figures in the above table may vary by approximately ±5% depending on the projection lens that is used. feet
• When vertical keystone correction is used, the image is corrected in the direction that reduces its projected size.
• At the shortest projection distance, the zoom lens characteristics may cause slight image distortion.
*2: The shift range function does not operate when the fixed-focus lens is installed.

• The figures in the above table may vary by approximately ±5% depending on the projection lens that is used. feet
• When vertical keystone correction is used, the image is corrected in the direction that reduces its projected size.
• At the shortest projection distance, the zoom lens characteristics may cause slight image distortion.
*2: The shift range function does not operate when the fixed-focus lens is installed.

Calculation of the projection distance

For a screen size different from the above, use the equation below to calculate the projection distance.
16:10 aspect ratio ET-D75LE6 minimum L (mm) = (diagonal screen size in inches) x 20.1 - 56.6

List of compatible signals

This projector supports RGB signals with horizontal frequencies of 15 to 100 kHz, vertical frequencies
of 24 to 120 Hz and dot clock frequencies of 20 MHz to 162 MHz.
NOTE: The native resolution of this projector is 1,920 x 1,200 pixels. If the display resolution of the input signal is different from the
native resolution, image compression or expansion will be used to convert the input signal to a level within the native resolution.

• It may not be possible to send or receive commands for about 10 to 60 seconds when the lamp is first turned on. If this
occurs, wait for 60 seconds, then try sending or receiving again.
• When sending multiple commands, be sure to wait for at least 0.5 second after receiving a response from the projector before
sending the next command.
• Additional time is sometimes required for response due to processing inside the projector. Set the time-out period for com-
mand response to 10 seconds or more.

3-Chip DLP™ Projector PT-DZ12000

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 (19-11/16˝) 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/32°F and 40°C/104°F. 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.

Operating the Projector Continuously

1. If the projector is to be operated continuously 24 hours, use the lamp relay mode. The projector cannot
be operated continuously 24 hours in quad-lamp mode. Allow a minimum of two hours per day of non-
operation time if the projector is to be operated continuously more than 22 hours.
2. The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short
periods.
