SXGA Digital Multimedia Projector 

 

INCREDIBLY BRIGHT 5800 ANSI LUMENS

 

A pair of high-output 200-watt UHP lamps delivers an incredible 
5800 ANSI lumens of brightness. 

 

OUTSTANDING CONTRAST RATIO – 900:1

 

Through its new high-contrast optical system, utilizing micro lens 
technology, the PLC-EF31N/NL is able to achieve an 
outstanding contrast ratio of 900:1. A micro lens is integrated 
into each individual pixel on the three LCD panels increasing 
light efficiency, resulting in significantly brighter images. 

 

INTELLIGENT DIGITAL SHARPNESS CONTROL 

This high-performance image processing technology analyzes 
the incoming signal and controls the sharpness of picture data 
only, while text and other elements that are already sharp are 
left unprocessed. 

 

NETWORK CONTROL/ADMINISTRATION 

An optional network board allows for simple control and 
management of the projector via a CAT5 network connection. 
The network board, which can memorize and store up to 55 PC 
modes, can also be used in parallel with RS-232 controllers. 

 

REAL COLOR MANAGER 

The Real Color Manager System provides white balance 
adjustment and gamma correction from a PC using the included 
image adjustment software by simply comparing the on-screen 
image to a printed color chart. 

 

NEW ONE-TOUCH LENS REPLACEMENT 

Attaching the included One-Touch lens mount adapters to your 
projector and lenses makes installation and removal of our 
optional lenses quick and easy.
