2 1. Introduction ❷ Introduction to the Projector This section introduces you to your new projector and describes the features and controls. Congratulations on Your Purchase of the Projector This projector is one of the very best projectors available today. The projector enables you to project precise images up to 500 inches (200 inches on NP25FL/600 inches on NP32ZL) across (measured diagonally) from your PC or Macintosh computer (desktop or notebook), VCR, DVD player, or document camera. You can use the projector on a tabletop or cart, you can use the projector to project images from behind the screen, and the projector can be permanently mounted on a ceiling*1. The remote control can be used wirelessly. *1 Do not attempt to mount the projector on a ceiling yourself. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes. Please consult your dealer for more information. Features you’ll enjoy: • DLP® projector with high resolution and high brightness High resolution display – WUXGA (1920 × 1200) native resolution (16:10) • Wide range of optional lenses selectable according to the place of installation This projector supports 6 types of optional lenses, providing a selection of lenses adapted for a variety of instal- lation requirements. In addition, the lenses can be mounted and removed easily. Note that no lens is mounted upon shipment from the factory. Please purchase optional lenses separately. • Dual Lamp system Two lamp system offers increased lamp life and energy savings along with redundancy. • Double stackable for built in redundancy and high light output requirements Double stacking projectors increase the brightness and visibility. • EDGE BLENDING function The EDGE BLENDING function allows a multi-screen image with high resolution to be displayed on a large screen. • Powered Lens Shift, Zoom, and Focus offer installation flexibility Powered Horizontal and Vertical lens shift provides the ability to project from off center screen installations. Powered zoom and focus provide quick and easy adjustment. Note that focus can be adjusted manually on the NP25FL lens. • Wide range of input/output connectors (HDMI, DisplayPort, BNC, etc.) The projector is equipped with a variety of input/output connectors: computer (analog), 5 BNC, HDMI, DisplayPort, Video, S-Video, etc. (The computer (analog) and BNC connectors also support component inputs.) The projector’s HDMI and DisplayPort input connectors support HDCP. • Slot for optional board The projector has a slot for the optional board (SB-01HC or other NEC’s interface boards). • High picture quality processing circuit The Reon-VX video processor is used to project high quality images. • Energy-saving design with a standby power consumption of 0.5 Watts or less When the on-screen menu’s standby mode is set to “Power Saving”, the power consumption in the standby mode is 0.5 W.
3 1. Introduction • “Eco mode” for low power consumption and “Carbon Meter” display The projector is equipped with an “eco mode” for reducing power consumption during use. Furthermore, the power-saving effect when the eco mode is set is converted into the amount of reductions of CO2 emissions and this is indicated on the confirmation message displayed when the power is turned off and at “Information” on the on-screen menu (CARBON METER). • Seamless switch function for smoother screen changes when switching the signal When the input connector is switched, the image displayed before switching is held so that that projector can write the new image without going to black. • Simultaneous display of 2 images (PIP/PICTURE BY PICTURE) Two images can be projected simultaneously with a single projector. There are two types of layouts for the two images: “picture-in-picture” in which a sub-picture is displayed on the main picture, and “picture-by-picture” in which the main and sub pictures are displayed next to each other. • Security function for preventing unauthorized use This projector is equipped with the following security functions: - Password security: When a password is set in the on-screen menu, a screen to input the password appears when the projector’s power is turned on. • Wired/wireless LAN compatibility (wireless LAN unit sold separately) The projector is equipped with a LAN port (RJ-45) for connection to a wired LAN for transferring images from a computer to the projector, controlling the projector from a computer, etc. Furthermore, the projector can be used in a wireless LAN by mounting the separately sold wireless LAN unit (NP02LM). • Convenient utility software downloadable from the web Five utility software programs (Image Express Utility 2.0, PC Control Utility Pro 4 (for Windows)/Pro 5 (for Mac OS), Image Express Utility 2 for Mac, Virtual Remote Tool) can be downloaded from our website. • LAN-compatible viewer function Still and moving images in shared folders on a computer connected by wired or wireless LAN can be projected with the projector’s viewer. - The viewer supports the Windows Media Player 11’s “media sharing” function. • CRESTRON ROOMVIEW compatibility The projector supports CRESTRON ROOMVIEW, allowing multiple devices connected in the network to be managed and controlled from a computer or controller. • 3D images supported The projector provides 3D images to a user wearing commercially available LCD shutter eyeglasses. • NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ Pro supported The projector allows you to view 3D images by using with supported graphics board or software.
