PLC-XL51

                              

XGA Ultra Short-Throw Multimedia Projector 

     

 

                 

 

 

 
 

 

 
 

 

 

WORLD'S FIRST ULTRA SHORT-THROW PROJECTOR 

With 2700 ANSI lumens and a 1200:1 contrast ratio, the PLC-XL51 can project an 
80" diagonal image from about three inches on to a projection surface. 

 

NETWORKING CAPABILITY 
The PLC-XL51 is equipped with SANYO’s exclusive PJ Network Interface for wired 

and wireless networking, now MAC compatible, a common feature among SANYO’s 
extensive line of commercial projectors. Networking allows the monitoring of 

projector functions and operation from a long distance via a web browser. Emails 

can be sent automatically to report operating status. The wireless interface is 
compatible with IEEE802.11b/g standards, offering transfer speeds up to 54Mbps 

and providing WEP 64/128-bit security 

 

MEMORY VIEWER ALLOWS SD CARD 

The PLC-XL51 built-in Memory Viewer can use a SD memory card dedicated to 
the projector. With Memory Viewer, projected images can be edited with a slide 

converter (Index data), bitmap data and JPEG data. 

 

DURABLE IN-ORGANIC LCD’S (D.I.O.S.) 

This Inorganic Optical LCD panel system provides a more durable projector to 
handle many applications for high-quality, high contrast image presentations. 

 

NEW OPTICAL ENGINE FOR VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL PROJECTION 

The proprietary optical and cooling mechanism technologies used in the PLC-XL51 

allow both vertical and horizontal projection. The new optical engine was created 
with a high-precision aspheric mirror combined with a distortion correction 

mechanism lens, enabling large magnification without distortion, even from ultra-
short distances. To allow projection either vertically or horizontally, a special cooling 

mechanism was also essential. The resulting solution is a one-way flow system 
consisting of an air intake and exhaust mechanism on the main body of the projector 

- thus allowing optimal positioning of the main components. 

 

PROJECTOR ALLOWING IMAGINATIVE VERSATILE APPLICATIONS 

By shortening the distance for projection, the options for installation are greatly 
improved, including floor, tabletop and wall mount projection. The variety of 

applications is almost limitless, providing effective, quick and easy presentations or 
displays. Projecting a large screen image on the floor in a pre-school creates a new 

style of teaching and classroom interaction. The PLC-XL51 presents a new avenue 

for education/instruction, “edutainment,” specialized business viewing and 
informational attention-getting signage. 

 

EASILY ADAPTS TO DIFFERENT PROJECTION SURFACES 

Projection surface-oriented features include top and bottom keystone correction for proper 

alignment of the projector and a Color Board Mode, which allows adjustment of the hue 

when projecting an image on a color (non-white) surface so that it appears to be projected 

on a white surface. The additional Black Board Mode enables educational institutions to 

use the projector with all standardized educational boards. 

 

EASY SET-UP AND REMOVAL PLUS ANIT-THEFT ALARM  

The PLC-XL51 turns on automatically when the power cord is plugged into an electrical 

outlet. With the Easy-Off function, it's possible to unplug the power cord without waiting 

for the machine to cool down, making it convenient for quickly clearing away the area 

after a presentation. The unit has been outfitted with a built-in, vibration sensor alert. An 

alarm sounds when the unit is picked up, proving to be an effective theft deterrent.
