❷ Introduction to the Projector

This section introduces you to your new projector and describes the features and controls.

General

• Liquid crystal type high brightness/high resolution projector

Model Brightness Resolution Aspect Ratio

PA1004UL-W/PA1004UL-B NORMAL: 9000lm, BOOST: 10000lm WUXGA (1920 × 1200) 16:10

PA804UL-W/PA804UL-B NORMAL: 7500lm, BOOST: 8200lm WUXGA (1920 × 1200) 16:10

Light source · Brightness

• A long-life laser diode is equipped in the light module

The product can be operated at low cost because the laser light source can be used for a long time without requir-

ing replacement or maintenance.

• Brightness can be adjusted within a wide range

Unlike with ordinary light sources, the brightness can be adjusted from 30 to 100% in 1% increments.

• [CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS] mode

Brightness normally decreases with use, but by selecting [CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS] mode, sensors inside the

projector detect and automatically adjust the output, thereby maintaining constant brightness throughout the life of the light module.

However, if brightness output is set at the maximum, brightness will decrease with use.

Installation

• Wide range of optional lenses selectable according to the place of installation

This projector supports 10 types of optional lenses, providing a selection of lenses adapted to a variety of places

of installation and projection methods.

In addition, the lenses can be mounted and removed in one touch.

Note that no lens is mounted upon shipment from the factory. Please purchase optional lenses separately.

• 360 dgeree free projection

This projector can be installed universally in every angle

The separately sold option cover is required to be attached to the projector depending on the installation angle of

the projector.

For controlling ne inclination, use the tilt foot. Install an appropriate metal and a stand that has enough strength

to support the projector for controlling the installation angle.

Videos

• Wide range of input/output terminals (HDMI, DisplayPort, HDBaseT, etc.)

The projector is equipped with a variety of input/output terminals: HDMI (input × 2), DisplayPort, HDBaseT (input

x 1, output x 1), computer (analog), etc.

The projector’s HDMI input, DisplayPort input terminals and HDBaseT Ports support HDCP.

• HDMI and HDBaseT support HDCP 2.2/1.4

• DisplayPort supports HDCP 1.3

• 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.

1. Introduction

• Multi-screen projection using multiple projectors

This projetor equips the HDBaseT IN/Ethernet and HDBaseT OUT/Ethernet ports. Multiple projectors in same

brightness up to four units can be conneted in a daisy chain by a LAN*1 cable via these terminals. A high quality picture is achieved by dividing and projecting high resolution videos among the various projectors.

Furthermore, the boundaries of the screens are smoothed using an edge blending function.

*1 Use a commercially available CAT 5e STP cable or one in a higher specication.

• 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 the new image can

be switched to without a break due to absence of a signal.

• Supports HDMI 3D format

This projector can be used to watch videos in 3D using commercially-available active shutter-type 3D eyewear and

3D emitters that support Xpand 3D.

Network

• Supports wired LAN

Equips the LAN and HDBaseT/Ethernet (RJ-45) ports. Utilizing a wired LAN connected with these ports, it enables

to control the projector by a computer.

• CRESTRON ROOMVIEW and Extron XTP compatibility

The projector supports CRESTRON ROOMVIEW and Extron XTP, allowing multiple devices connected in the

network to be managed and controlled from a computer. Moreover, it enables to output and control image via an Extron XTP transmitter connected with the projector.

• Convenient utility software (User Supportware) provided as standard

This projector supports our utility software (NaViSet Administrator 2, Virtual Remote Tool, etc.).

NaViSet Administrator 2 helps you control the projector by a computer via wired LAN connection.

Virtual Remote Tool helps you perform operations by a virtual remote control such as projector’s power on or off

and signal selection via wired LAN connection. Moreover, it has function to send an image to the projector and register it as the logo data.

Please visit our web site for downloading each software.

Energy-saving

• Energy-saving design with a standby power consumption of 0.15 W (100-130 V AC) / 0.21 W (200-240 V AC)

When the on-screen menu’s standby mode is set to “NORMAL”, the power consumption in the standby mode ac-

tivating the Power Management is 0.15 W (100-130 V AC) / 0.21 W (200-240 V AC) and 0.11 W (100-130 V AC) /

0.16 W (200-240 V AC) when LAN is ineffective.

• [LIGHT MODE] for low power consumption and “Carbon Meter” display

The projector is equipped with an [LIGHT MODE] for reducing power consumption during use. Furthermore, the

power-saving effect when one option among [ECO1], [ECO2] and [LONG LIFE] is set is converted into the amount of reductions of CO turned off and at [INFORMATION] on the on-screen menu (CARBON METER).
