Sony VPL-CW255

Maximum 4500 Lumens Brightness

The VPL-CW255 features three brightness modes to suit individual user's needs - 4500, 3400 and 2500

lumens. The low brightness mode generates lower operating costs by reducing power consumption and

extending the lamp lifetime to approximately 5000 hours. The projector also has a contrast ratio of 3700:1,

a range of video inputs, including HDMI, and RJ-45 or RS-232C connectors for control

PrimeSupport

This product comes with the full PrimeSupport package. That's fast, hassle-free repairs, a helpline offering

expert technical advice, and a free loan unit while yours is repaired. Plus the peace of mind that Sony is

looking after your equipment - and your business

Impressive Throw Ratio

The VPL-CW255 offers a 1.32 to 1.91:1 throw ratio that can accommodate most large

classrooms or large meeting rooms

3LCD BrightEra Technology

Sony's 0.75" BrightEra inorganic TFT 3LCD panels deliver improved panel light

resistance, higher resolution, high brightness and increased panel reliability

WXGA 16:10 Widescreen Resolution

The VPL-CW255 has a native WXGA (1280 x 800) 16:10 screen resolution panel that is perfect for

presentations direct from video, laptop or PC

5000 Hours Lamp Life

Extended lamp life is possible with a new driving scheme that reduces gap expansion and brightness

gradation, plus a new cooling system that allows uniformity in the temperature of the glass bulb and

prevents it from clouding

Environmentally Friendly Eco Mode

Users can easily select power saving eco modes. The most energy efficient mode is accessible though a

single button push, and further adjustments are available through an easily understood menu system

Environmentally Friendly Lamp Dimming

With lamp dimming, the projector can reduce power consumption and brightness by 10-15% without user

detection. After a pre-set time assigned by the user, the brightness and power consumption will reduce to

30% power usage. Instant 100% brightness returns with a new signal input to the projector

Environmentally Friendly Picture Mute

Picture mute reduces power consumption down to 30% power usage, saving cost and lamp hours. This

feature can be used in the education market as an instant off/on between class changes, or in the

corporate market as a tool to redirect attention away from the screen and reduce power

Vertical and Horizontal Keystone Adjustment

The projector can correct keystone distortion by V: +/- 30%; H: +/- 20% for perfect installation adjustment.

(Note: Since this is an electronic correction, it will reduce the picture quality slightly)

Smart APA (Auto Pixel Alignment)

When a computer is used as a picture source, APA automatically optimizes phase, pitch and shift values.

These can also be adjusted manually

- Auto input search detects which input has an incoming signal and automatically switches to it. This

 makes it easier for users to set up the projector prior to making a presentation

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

Picture Freeze Function

Picture freeze is useful during presentations if you need to look at other material on your PC's screen

without the viewing audience being aware. Freeze the current image, and you can use your PC

independently of the display from the projector

Digital Zoom

With digital zoom, if you are displaying a computer sourced image, you can enlarge a selected area of the

screen image

Off and Go

At the end of a presentation, you 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 applied

Filter Cleaning at the Same Time as Lamp Replacement

The filter only needs to be cleaned when a new lamp is fitted, potentially halving disruption due to

maintenance

Multiple Picture Modes

The VPL-CW255 has six picture modes (dynamic, standard, game, living, cinema and presentation) that

can be selected to suite the nature of the source material

Built-In Security Measures

The VPL-CW255 has a package of security measures, including password protection, and physical anti-

theft anchor points
