Air Shot

Simple Mode

Air Shot simple mode is a revolutionary new way of presenting, allowing you to establish wireless communication between the projector and a PC and to instantly begin a presentation. This feature is easy to use even for those not familiar with setting up wireless network systems.

Making Air Shot wireless presentations is as easy as 1, 2, 3!

1)Simply insert the wireless LAN card into the VPL-CX85, and turn on the projector.

2)Then, plug the USB wireless LAN module into your PC...

3)And voila! The image on your PC is automatically projected from the VPL-CX85.

Note: The Projector Station for Air Shot software application must be installed on the PC the first time the projector’s Air Shot feature is used. This can be

done by simply plugging the USB storage media into your PC and following the “Setup Wizard” instructions on your PC display. 5

LAN Connection Capability 6

In office environments with a wireless LAN capability, the VPL-CX85 can be accessed via a wireless LAN access point and used by any PC on the LAN. This configuration is conven- ient for remote maintenance and control of the projector.

High-Speed Image Transfer

Wireless connections can sometimes introduce delays when transmitting images to the projector. However, the VPL-CX85 employs a Sony original compression and transmission technique allowing for smooth presentations with high-quality images.

Security Feature

The Air Shot wireless feature offers a high level of security preventing cross-communication between projectors and PCs by using an encryption function, WEP (Wired Equivalency Protection). 7 This secure transmission function is automatically set even in Simple Mode.
