Description
Panasonic RW730LBU Overview
The black PT-RW730LBU 7200-Lumen WXGA DLP Projector from Panasonic features a solid-state laser light source and full-spectrum color wheel that boosts color without sacrificing brightness. Because the PT-RW730LBU is powered by SOLID SHINE laser technology, you can turn the projector on and off any time you like. With Quick Start mode, projection begins in about one second. The projector also features a Quartet Color Harmonizer wheel mechanism that captures a wider color space than comparable projectors, which allows white to be reproduced realistically on-screen. This dustproof projector, with no lamps or filters to replace, provides 20,000 hours of maintenance-free projection with consistent picture quality.

Full-Spectrum Color with up to 7200-Lumen Brightness
Offers DLP technology delivering high-resolution detail and dual laser modules outputting up to 7200 lumens of brightness, Quartet Color Harmonizer to reduce energy loss from the light source, and a robust heat-resistant phosphor wheel. The SOLID SHINE laser system produces scintillating images with unfailing reliability.
White Balance and Color Reproduction
The Quartet Color Harmonizer wheel mechanism captures a wider color space than comparable projectors, which allows white to be reproduced realistically on screen.
Laser Module Maintains Picture Quality Over Time
Thanks to the dual solid-state laser modules, there are no lamps to replace, and image color/brightness degrades very gradually in a consistent, linear fashion. As well as reducing maintenance hassle, out-of-the-box picture quality is preserved for a longer period of time.
Stable 24/7 Operation with Light Source Failover Protection
The Dual Drive Laser Optical Engine groups laser diodes into two discrete modules. A fail-safe redundancy circuit works to minimize brightness and color uniformity loss should a laser diode fail, making the projector suitable for mission-critical applications. Furthermore, brightness decreases more gradually and consistently than lamp-based projectors over a 20,000-hour maintenance-free projection period.
Light Control for High Contrast
The PT-RW730LBU Series directly modulates laser power output to achieve high contrast with low power consumption. Digitally controlled frame-by-frame scene-linking modulation ensures highly precise output adjustment, while accurate 10,000:1 contrast is delivered even when bright and dark scenes frequently interchange.
System Daylight View for Sharp, Vivid Images in Bright Environments
The System Daylight View prevents images from washing out in well-lit environments, enhancing brightness perception in multi-projector mapping applications by adjusting sharpness and gamma curves and correcting colors. The result is better visual impact, even in challenging conditions.
Detail Clarity Processor Sharpens the Finest Details
The circuit optimizes the sharpness of each image based on the super high, high, medium, and low frequency components of the extracted image information. The resulting images are expressed with natural, convincing realism.
Dust-Resistant Airtight Optical Block
The PT-RW730LBU Series optical block is airtight, ensuring consistent, long-lasting image quality for up to 20,000 hours without maintenance. The optical block design passed stringent testing to assure utmost reliability in environments with up to 0.15mg of particulate matter per cubic meter (based on American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers [ASHRAE] and Japanese Building Maintenance Association guidelines). The structure prevents brightness degradation from dust intrusion.
Selectable Operational Modes Maintain Image Quality
In Normal mode, the PT-RW730LBU Series can operate continuously for about 20,000 hours. In Eco mode, this is extended to around 24,000 hours of continuous operation. These modes enhance suitability for education and signage applications. In environments where full brightness is not necessary, such as surveillance, control, and simulation rooms, constant operation modes extend light source replacement to up to 87,600 hours in Long Life mode – about ten years of 24/7 projection, with consistent brightness and color. In addition to preset operating modes, the PT-RW730LBU Series can be customized to achieve your preferred balance of brightness performance or extended life.
Contrast Sync and Shutter Sync Functions
The PT-RW730LBU Series features contrast and shutter sync functions for multi-screen and mapping applications. Contrast sync allows the projector's digitally modulated contrast function to be synchronized over the network, for consistent picture quality across screens. Shutter sync incorporates a master/slave principle to synchronize shutter on/off timing between all networked projectors. It includes simultaneous fade-in and fade-out functions.
Multi-Screen Support System Seamlessly Connects Multiple Screens
Optimally adjusts multiple screens with edge blending, color matching, and digital image enlargement. With edge blending, edges of adjacent screens can be blended and their luminance controlled. Color matching corrects for slight variations in the color reproduction range of individual projectors. Computer software assures easy, accurate control.
Multi-Unit Brightness and Color Control
This function automatically corrects brightness and color fluctuations that occur over time in individual projectors in a multi-screen system. Control up to eight projectors connected via hub increasing to a maximum of 2,048 projectors with Multi-Monitoring & Control Software.
Geometric Adjustment for Custom Screen Surfaces
Geo Adjustment adapts the image for projection onto spherical, cylindrical, and other specially shaped screens. Fine-tuning is performed with the remote control, with no external equipment needed. Paired with the Multi-Screen Support System, highly creative mapping presentations are possible in a variety of event and staging applications.
Single-Cable DIGITAL LINK Control and Video Connection
Upward HDBaseT compatible DIGITAL LINK supports transmission of uncompressed Full HD video and control commands through a single Cat 5e or later STP cable for distances of up to 492'. Add an optional DIGITAL LINK Switcher or Digital Interface box to further simplify installation in large venues while reducing cost and improving reliability.
Backup Input Setting Optimizes Performance
This feature allows smooth switching to a backup input signal should the primary signal be disrupted, guaranteeing reliability for mission-critical control rooms, projection mapping, staging, and in applications where image display must be maintained.
Free 360° Rotation
Projection is possible in any direction vertically and horizontally. The unit can be rotated 360 degrees for installation at any angle.
Supports Art-Net DMX, Crestron Connected, and PJLink
The PT-RW730LBU Series is compatible with Art-Net DMX protocol for lighting management. This allows the projector to be connected to a lighting console, opening the door to a range of added functionality and control options. The included LAN/DIGITAL LINK terminal also supports Crestron Connected and PJLink (Class 1) for seamless integration of PT-RW730LBU Series projectors into an existing AV network utilizing multiple device brands.
Multi-Monitoring & Control Software
The software offers monitoring and control of up to 2048 devices over a LAN network from a single computer. For monitoring, status for individual devices can be listened to in groups. Control functions include power on/off, input switching, scheduling, and command inputs.
Connectivity
Connect any source device to the PT-RW730LBU Series via its array of terminals including SDI, DIGITAL LINK, DVI-D, and HDMI.
Web Browser Control
The PT-RW730LBU Series can be easily operated remotely over a LAN network via a computer's web browser. Projectors can be configured to alert the operator via email if an error has occurred.
Quick Start, Quick Off
The laser light source doesn't require any warm-up, so images appear almost instantly (in about one second) with the PT-RW730LBU Series projectors. There is no cool-down period needed when turning the power off at the mains, so the projector can be turned on and off any time as necessary.
