XGA resolution for crisp presentations
XGA (1024 x 768) resolution gives lots of fine detail: useful for making presentations direct from a laptop or tablet.

Gamma curve adjustment offers three settings for accurate tonal reproduction with rich, punchy colours and clear, easy-to-read text.
Simple screen mirroring

Get presenting faster
Auto Start detects signals from a connected HDMI or VGA source, turning on the projector lamp so you're all ready to start presenting.
Switch off and go
Quick Power Off shortens cool-down time to just 10 seconds after switch-off at the end of a presentation - saving time when you're in a hurry to the next meeting.
Presentation timer
Speakers can keep an eye on their allocated presentation time, with a count-up or count-down timer in a corner of the screen.
Make neater notes
Pick from a choice of superimposed grid and ruled line templates to make neat handwriting and drawing easier when you're projecting onto a white board.
Up to 10,000 hours long-lasting lamp
The energy-efficient lamp driver contributes to an impressive lamp replacement interval of up to 10,000 hours (in Low brightness mode).
Reduced ownership costs
There's a range of energy-saving features to drive down total ownership costs. Auto Mode adjusts lamp brightness depending on picture content. Lamp Dimming progressively reduces brightness if no input's detected, or after a preset time. Touching the Blank button on the projector remote instantly mutes the picture when it's not needed.
Audio out
Audio terminals allow direct connection of active speakers (not included) to suit the needs of any room.
Easy access, simple maintenance
Lamp access on the top panel of the projector simplifies lamp replacement, whether the projector's ceiling- or table-mounted. There's also a sliding air filter and detachable dust cover, for easy maintenance without having to remove the projector from its ceiling mount.
Choice of setting locks
As well as full lock mode, an additional mode allows temporary adjustment of picture settings: original settings are restored when the projector's restarted.
