Add the Hitachi CP X608 to Your Network
The CP-X608 can be integrated into a LAN for centralized monitoring of power, input, lamp time and other functions. In fact, more than 500 projectors can be monitored from a single PC. It is also possible to control the power and other functions of a single specified projector or of all projectors linked via the LAN. This makes operating projectors installed in different rooms a simple task. Moreover, Projector Monitoring and Control can be applied to both wired and wireless networks.
Scheduling Functions
The timing of automatically switching each projector’s power on and off can be set from a PC. In education and training situations, power on and off can be set to coincide with lesson periods, saving energy and lamp time.
Still Image Transfer (e-SHOT)*
Using this function, VGA-quality still pictures can be transferred from a PC to the projector. And by using the Schedule function, the images can be shown at preset times for using the screen like a message board.
* To use these functions, it is necessary to download the appropriate software. Ask your dealer for details.
E-mail Alerts
Using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), the projector is able to remotely monitor and diagnose its status and the status of other network applications with SNMP Management Software. When an error or trouble occurs, the projector uses Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) to send a warning massage to up to five e-mail addresses.
Internal Clock Correction
When the projector is connected to a network it automatically accesses a server, which in turn automatically corrects the projector’s internal clock.
Multi Screen Function for Conferences
Images from up to four PCs can be shown simultaneously on the screen to add more versatility to your presentations. Any of the images can be selected for viewing on the full screen.
Control and Monitoring via Web browser
Projectors can be controlled and monitored via a web browser without having to download and install application software.
Projection of External Data
Data received by the control PC via LAN from an external memory device can be output from the projector. This means you have a much wider range of material to choice
