What’s in the Box? and

the Names of the

Projector Parts

1-1. Features

• Laser light source DLP Cinema

®

projector

By using pure laser of R, G and B as a light source, wider color range than existing projector has been achieved.

• Compatible with various installation methods by separating laser unit from projector

As projector and laser unit can be installed separately, various installation methods are possible. (Projector can be installed

on the ﬂoor or hanging from the ceiling. Only ﬂoor installation supports laser unit.) Many types of optional lens for the projector

also are available for separate sale to support various projection range.

• Equipped with easy to use functions

(1) Lens memory function and light power memory function that can be operated with one touch.

The projector is provided with a lens memory function that can memorize zoom position and shifting position by matching

screen size according to input signal and a light power memory function for storing the brightness of the images on the

screen for each input signal.

Even if you are projecting multiple images that have different settings for screen size and brightness, you can project them

with the conditions pre-registered for each signal, simply by selecting the corresponding signal.

(2) Laser light source method realizes high reliability and long service life at the same time

As the laser unit is composed of plural laser elements for each color of R, G and B, even if any laser element becomes

faulty, other laser elements compensate it and lower the risk of projection suspension. High efﬁciency has been achieved

for the maintenance of the projector mainly in the following points.

• As the longevity of laser element is longer compared to that of the existing lamps, periodical replacement is not

necessary.

• As heat generation is low compared to lamps and powerful cooling system is not required, the clogging of air-ﬁlter

decreased signiﬁcantly.

(3) Frequently used titles can be registered in preset buttons

The projector has been equipped with 8 preset buttons that make it easy to select registered title (input signal). To this

projector, 100 titles at most can be registered (input signal registration). Among the registered titles, any 16 titles can be

assigned to the preset buttons.

(4) You can operate and conﬁgure the projector via a network from a PC

You can operate and conﬁgure the projector via a network from a PC by using the separately supplied software Digital

Cinema Communicator (DCC) for S2.

• DMD face dust protection structure

A dust control shield is arranged between each DMD chip of R, G and B, and the spectroscopic/condenser prism. It prevents

dust and dirt in the air, and oily particles in smoke associated with event halls from coming into contact with the face of the

DMD and causing operating problems.

• Efficient cooling of the heat from the DMD unit by the cooling structure

The DMD unit uses a highly efﬁcient liquid cooling method. This efﬁciently eliminates heat applied to the DMD by the complete

dust control structure and high light output, thereby ensuring the reliability of the projector.
