Sony Vpl Cx80 Projector Specifications

							MODEL VPL-
CX80
Bright XGA Installation Projector
3000 ANSI lumen
This smart, stylish projector offers a range of
features that make it suitable for standard
installation, integration in AV systems, or for
portable use.
The VPL-CX80 offers a high brightness of 3000 ANSI
lumens to display bright pictures in large rooms, even
where there is a high level of ambient light. Native
XGA resolution ensures clear display of detail while
an extremely quiet fan, at just 28dB, ensures the
projector will not distract the attention of the audience.
The model is equipped with two RGB (15 pin D-sub)
inputs, one monitor output (15 pin D-sub), as well as
two audio inputs and one audio output. For control it
has an RS-232C port. A USB connection allows users
to navigate through a presentation running on a PC
using the supplied remote control.
Key Features
Additional Features
Intelligent Auto Set-up
Press the ‘on’ button and the projector will
complete the following steps automatically,
ensuring ease of operation:
1 Lens protector opens automatically
(which also avoids loss of the lens cap)
2 Projector tilts to previously used angle
3 Auto keystone correction is completed
4 Auto input search occurs
5 Smart Auto Pixel Alignment (APA) is completed.
Monitor Out
The projector can display the image
simultaneously on a large screen and on an
additional monitor (via a 15 pin D-sub
connection), so that the user can face the
audience and still see the information
being shown.
RS-232C
Connections include an RS-232C port for management and
control of the projector.
Low Fan Noise
Quiet operation ensures that your audience will not
be distracted by fan noise. The VPL-CX80 operates at
just 28dB.
Control Panel Lock
This function locks the controls on the top and side of the
projector, to prevent unauthorised or unintentional use of
the controls. Functionality can be switched ‘on’ or ‘off’.
Password Protection
When this function is activated a password is required
to use the projector (if the password is lost, Sony is
able to retrieve it).
Side Shot™
No need to place the projector directly in front
of the screen – Side Shot™ will adjust the
signal and display a correct image even when
the projector is placed to the side of the screen.
Two RGB Inputs
Two 15-pin D-sub inputs allow for flexible connection.
Input-A is for RGB or Component, Input-B is for RGB only.
Direct Power On/Off
The projector can be set to skip the standby mode,
so that it can be turned on or off directly using a
mains switch.
Off & Go Function
The fan continues to cool the projector after the
power supply is removed, enabling users to unplug
the projector immediately after use, without damaging
the lamp. (Other projectors need to be cooled and
remain connected to the power supply after use.)
