Maintenance and Notifications Via Network
Because the VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 projectors can
be connected to a LAN, a number of functions can
be performed remotely using a web browser.
*9
For
example, the projector‘s current status can be verified
and simple controls, such as powering the unit on or
off, can be performed. Also, the system can be set
up to send automatic e-mail reports to designated
recipients for scheduled maintenance, including
projected lamp life and error reports.

Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher is required.
ID Function for Multi-Projector Installation
The VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 projectors have a built-in
ID function, so each projector can be controlled
independently from a single Remote Commander unit.
For multi-projector installations in a single room, this
feature is indispensable both during installation and
operation.
Digital Keystone Adjustment
Vertical Keystone distortion of up to ±30 degrees can
be digitally corrected via the OSD and/or Remote
Commander unit of the VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40
projectors. This enables detailed images to be
projected with their correct geometry, even when
installation space is limited.
Multiple Interfaces for Flexible
Operation
Multitude of Inputs
The VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 projectors accept a wide
variety of input signals, including HDMI
TM
(the latest
standard for digitally connecting to high-definition
systems), component and composite video, S-Video
(Y/C), and computer signals up to UXGA (fV: 60 Hz) –
which expands the system-connection possibilities.
The VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 projectors are equipped
with five BNC connectors, so they can accept signals
from sources such as workstations or professional
video equipment, and these sources can be located far
away from the projector because the interfaces
support long-distance signal transmission.
Monitor Output for Presenters
Projected images can be monitored by connecting a
PC display to the VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 projectors’
monitor output and placing it in the presenter's field
of view. This allows the presenter to continually face
the audience during the presentation for a fluid and
professional delivery.
Multi-Language OSD
(On-Screen Display)
The OSD used for control of the VPL-FE40 and
VPL-FX40 projectors is available in 16 languages:
English, Dutch, French, Italian, German, Spanish,
Portuguese, Russian, Swedish, Norwegian, Japanese,
simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese, Korean, Thai,
and Arabic.
Quiet Operation
The VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 projectors are incredibly
quiet, allowing for smooth and undisturbed
presentations. The low fan noise is attributed to a
highly efficient cooling system based on Sony’s
latest technology.
Multi-Function Remote Commander
Unit
The supplied Remote Commander unit for the
VPL-FE40 and VPL-FX40 is useful for both setting up
the projector during installation and changing settings
for a presentation. This unit has buttons for direct
input selection, so users do not
have to toggle through the
entire range of inputs to select
the desired one. With the
projector ID function, each
projector in a multiple-projector
installation can be controlled
independently from a single
remote.
