Introduction to the XT5100/XT4100 Projector

The XT5100/XT4100 is one of the finest, most technically advanced
projectors available today. The XT5100/XT4100 enables you to project
exceptionally bright, precise images up to 500 inches across (measured
diagonally) from your PC or Macintosh computer (desktop or notebook),
VCR, document camera, laser disc player, DVD player and e ven an HD
VCR or HD laser disc player.
You can use the projector on a tabletop or cart, you can permanently
mount it on a ceiling*, or you can use the projector to project images
from behind the screen. The remote control can be used in a wired or
wireless configuration.
Features you'll enjoy :

tion.
•The XT5100/XT4100 can accommodate any picture size from 80 to
500 inches (measured diagonally).
