WXGA resolution desktop projector with 2700 lumens brightness

Just as teaching methods are adapted to match student ability levels, so we design our AV technology for the education sector to meet specific requirements. Sony have worked closely with teachers and purchasing departments within the education sector to create the E200 Series education projectors. Now schools can benefit from reliable, longlasting projectors with a low cost of ownership that truly enhance the learning experience.

ECO Mode Key
Teachers can easily select power-saving ECO Modes. The most energy-effi cient mode is accessible though a single buttonpush, with further adjustments available through an easily understood menu system.

ECO Picture Mute - (Instant Off/Instant On)
The new ECO Picture Mute feature reduces power consumption down to 30%, saving cost and lamp hours. This feature can be used in the classroom as instant off/instant on in-between classes. There is no need to power completely off and turn back on, which is time consuming and a signifi cant problem with projectors in the classroom.

Auto Dimming Mode
The new E200 Series projectors automatically adjust brightness depending on the image. The darker the image, the less energy used by the lamp. (Maximum 70% lamp power reduction based on the image.)

ECO Lamp Dimming
These projectors (if this function is selected) can reduce power consumption and brightness by 1015%. After a user pre-set time, the brightness and power consumption will reduce to 30% power usage, with instant 100% brightness returning as soon as a new signal input is detected.

ECO Gauge
When the projector is shut down, an ECO achievement indication (gauge) appears to show the teacher how well they have used the projector. The more ECO features that have been used, the better the ECO green leaf mark. (Calculated by the use of ECO functions and actual lamp wattage.)

Vertical Keystone Adjustment
The projectors can correct keystone distortion by +/- 30% for perfect installation adjustment to the screen. (Note that since this is an electronic correction, it will reduce the picture quality slightly.)

Digital Zoom
With Digital Zoom, teachers can enlarge a selected area of a computer-sourced image on the screen up to four times.

Six Picture Modes
All the projectors within the E200 Series family have six available picture modes for correct picture quality; Dynamic, Standard, Game, Blackboard, Cinema and Presentation. With six picture modes and 3 brightness modes combined, teachers can select the most suitable picture/brightness mode according to the picture source and environment for the perfect image.

3LCD BrightEra Technology
The Sony BrightEra inorganic TFT 3LCD panels deliver improved panel light resistance, higher resolution, high brightness and increased panel reliability. Smart APA (Auto Pixel Alignment) When a computer is used as a picture source, APA automatically optimises Phase, Pitch and Shift values. These can also be adjusted manually.

Auto Input Search
Auto Input Search detects which input has an incoming signal and automatically switches to it. This makes it easier for teachers to set up the projector prior to making a presentation.

Picture Muting/Audio Muting
If there is a need to blackout the image or turn off the audio from the projector, all it takes is a single button-press on the remote control. One button will mute audio and image at the same time. There is also a separate “mute audio” button for audio-only muting.

Audio Switcher Facility
To avoid the need for a separate audio switcher, the projector can be used to select between two audio sources, routing them via a variable audio output to the room amplification system.

Off and Go
At the end of a presentation, teachers can turn off the power supply to the projector immediately, instead of going through a ‘power down’ cycle.

Direct Power On/Off
With this function, there is no need to go through ‘Standby’ mode when powering up the projector. The projector can be set to activate as soon as power is supplied. Built-in Security Measures The E200 Series projectors have a package of security measures, including password protection and physical antitheft anchor points.

WXGA Resolution
The VPL-EW226, VPL-EW246 and VPL-EW276 have a native WXGA (1280 x 800) 16:10 screen resolution panel, perfect for presentations direct from a laptop or PC.

Picture Freeze Function Picture Freeze is useful during presentations where teachers need to look at other material on their PC’s screen without the pupils being aware. Freeze the current image and teachers can use their PC independently of the display from the projector. 7000 Hours Lamp Life A new driving scheme reduces gap expansion which minimises brightness gradation. A new cooling system allows uniformity in the temperature of the glass bulb which prevents the glass from clouding. Filter Cleaning Cycle at the same time as lamp The filter only needs to be changed when a new lamp is fitted, potentially halving disruption due to maintenance.

Web Control When VPL-E200 Series Projectors are installed in a local area network (LAN), Their versatile network functions are available to any PC on that network. Installation can be via a LAN cable, and there is no need to install any addiotional software on your PC. Network Presentation When VPL-E200 series projectors are installed on a LAN, presentations can be projected from any PC on the Network - whether connected via a LAN cable or wirelessly*. (*Requires Optional IFUWLM3 adaptor) Up to four users can project PC images simultaneously.

USB Media Viewer By attaching a USB memory stick to the VPL-E200 series USB Connector, the operator can directly project image files stored on the USB memory device. Supported file formats are JPG, BMP, PNG, TIF, and GIF.
