low Maintanence
These handy portables offer a lamp replacement cycle of up to 5,000 hours for extended, maintenance-free use. Three-layered air filters, in which each layer contains a different mesh size, are installed in two parts of the body. Increasing the filters' surface area made it possible to achieve a replacement cycle of up to 6,000 hours. This reduces maintenance hassles for long periods of use, and helps to lower maintenance costs and reduce environmental impact.
1.6x Zoom Lens
When projecting onto a 100-inch wide screen, the 1.6x zooms lens lets the PT-Vx400, for example, support a wide range of projection distances, from 2.5 to 4.1 meters (8.2 to 13.5 feet)
Wide Variety of Functions
Auto Input Signal Search
The Auto Input Signal Search function automatically detects the input signal and selects the input channel based on the signal. This function lets you start a presentation without any complicated setup required.
Input Guidance Function
If the input signal cannot be detected, the Input Guidance function will display connection instructions on the projector screen, for easy setup.
Real-Time Keystone Correction*
With Real-Time Keystone Correction, the projector automatically senses if you adjust its angle (in the vertical direction) during operation and instantly makes whatever keystone correction is necessary for optimal viewing.
Color-board and Blackboard modes
Color-board and Blackboard modes adjust the colors to make high-quality projection possible in rooms that don’t have a screen.
10W Speakers and Microphone connection
These portable VX400 projectors feature high-output 10-watt speakers that produce a high sound volume without requiring external speakers. They also feature a microphone input terminal that allows microphone sounds to be output from the projector. These features make presentations even more effective.
HDMI
Extensive interfaces include an HDMI input terminal, 2 sets of computer (RGB) input terminals, a wired LAN terminal,
and a serial (RS-232C) terminal for external control. These features support a wide range of system architectures
for portable or ceiling-mounted use.
Remote Monitoring and Control over LAN
A web browser on a computer connected through a wired LAN system* lets you remotely operate projectors and check their status. An e-mail messaging function can also notify you when a lamp needs replacement, and indicate the overall projector status.
In addition, Multi Projector Monitoring and Control Software is available for monitoring and controlling multiple Panasonic projectors from a single PC.
The wired LAN terminal is compatible with PJLink™ (class1), an open protocol that is used by many manufacturers, to enable integrated control of systems that contain different brands of projectors.
Picture in Picture
Two different image sources can be simultaneously displayed onto a single screen. You can also switch to P-in-P (Picture-in-Picture) mode and display a sub-window onto the main screen. The sub-window can be positioned at any of the four corners (upper left, upper right, lower left, lower right) to expand the usable area as only a wide-screen projector can do.
Quiet Operation
The quiet design keeps noise levels down to 29 dB,* so the sound of the cooling fan is hardly noticeable.
This helps the audience to keep their attention on the speech when someone is giving a presentation or on the
screen images during quiet scenes.
