INTRODUCTION
The VX-5c projector is a professional quality DMD
TM
projector that uses Digital Light
Processing
TM
(DLP
TM
) technology from Texas Instruments to achieve high-brightness
multimedia and video projection. Both models are compatible
with standard international video formats and can interface with
IBM

-compatible PC, Macintosh
TM
computers and high-defini-
tion (DTV) decoders. The VX-5c is ideal for use in large audi-
ence venues in which there may be high levels of ambient light,
such as in corporate boardrooms, auditoriums, and large theaters
with large screens.
The features of the VX-5c include:
Includes the VHD Ultra Controller for optimum picture quality when
using NTSC sources
1280 x 1024 native resolution, with other resolutions fully scaleable
3000 ANSI lumens light output
Contrast ratio of greater than 250:1 ANSI, 400:1 full field
Tandem horizontal and vertical sizing software control
Independent vertical stretch for changing aspect ratios
Interchangeable lenses for diagonal screen sizes up to 40 or more feet
Memory for up to 99 custom “channels” (source setups)
Intuitive on-screen menus or hidden direct control
Input switching with keypad
Built-in RS-232 and RS-422 ports for computer control and networked projectors
Modular design for easy servicing.
How The Projector Work?
The VX-5c can accept data/graphics and video input signals for projection on to front
or rear flat screens. High brightness light is generated by an internal 700W Xenon arc
lamp, then modulated by three DMD (digital micromirror device) panels that provide
digitized red, green or blue color information. Light from the “on” pixels of each panel
is reflected, converged and then projected to the screen through a single front lens,
where all pixels are perfectly superimposed as a sharp full-color image.
