PC-Less Presentations

Photos and video clips can be run right from the VPL-CX85 projector using “Memory Stick™” media. This means there is no need for a PC. The system can directly project JPEG, including digital photo (DCF standard) and MPEG 1 12 movie formats. Projected images can be directly controlled with the RM-PJM17 Remote Commander unit. Microsoft PowerPoint presentations, BMP, and TIFF files can also be projected by converting them to JPEG files, using the Projector Station for Presentation software application, and saving them to a “Memory Stick” media.

12The following MPEG-1 movie formats can be displayed from “Memory Stick” media: MPEG MOVIE, MPEG MOVIE EX, MPEG MOVIE CV, MPEG MOVIE HQ, MPEG MOVIE AD, and MPEG-1 from VAIO® Giga Pocket™ devices..

Off & Go 13

The VPL-CX85 incorporates a built-in circuit that continues to run its cooling fan after the power is cut. This feature allows you to unplug the projector and carry it away without waiting, because the fan continues to cool the unit.

13Turn off the projector in accordance with the operating instructions. The projector should be cool before inserting it into the carrying case.

Direct Power On/Off

The projector’s standby mode can be bypassed allowing power to be directly applied or cut using a main power breaker. This feature is ideal when multiple projectors have to be turned on and off, such as in an art museum or classroom.

Monitor Output

Projected images can be monitored by connecting a PC monitor to the monitor output and placing it in the presenter's field of view. This allows the presenter to face the audience for a fluid and professional delivery.

Various Inputs (Multiscan Converter)

The VPL-CX85 comes equipped with a scan converter to accept a wide variety of input signals – both computer images and video. For computer images, the VPL-CX85 supports signals ranging from VGA up to SXGA+ (1400 x 1050, fH 60 Hz), with horizontal frequencies of 19 to 92 kHz and vertical frequencies of 48 to 92 Hz. For video, it accepts component and composite signals, in addition to S-Video and RGB signals. Input signals with a variety of scanning lines, as well as interlace and progressive modes, are supported.
