Hitachi Introduces New Classroom and Conference Room 3LCD Projectors

by Definition Branding & Marketing Posted: Wednesday, 5/16/2012

CHULA VISTA, California, May 16, 2012 — Hitachi America, Ltd., Digital Media Division, Business Solutions Group today announced the next generation of its Classroom and Conference Room 3LCD projectors: the CP-X2015WN, CP-WX2515WN, CP-X2515WN, CP-X3015WN, CP-X4015WN and CP-WX3015WN. These new models offer networking capability, two USB ports and new ImageCare functionality.

The CP-X2015WN, CP-WX2515WN, CP-X2515WN, CP-X3015WN, CP-X4015WN and CP-WX3015WN all provide networking capability, allowing them to be remotely controlled via a LAN network connection. Hitachi’s exclusive PJMan Projector Management software gives users the ability to operate and monitor the projectors from a remote location, and receive diagnostic information (such as remaining lamp life), making these models ideal for installations where multiple projectors are used, such as an entire building or campus.

Two USB Type A inputs make it possible to use the optional USB wireless adapter and the Hitachi Wireless Pen Tablet (TB-1) USB receiver at the same time. In addition, projector settings can be transferred to other projectors via a USB memory stick. This makes it easy to use other projectors without having to take the time to configure the settings.

The CP-X2015WN, CP-WX2515WN, CP-X2515WN, CP-X3015WN, CP-X4015WN and CP-WX3015WN all feature ImageCare, which is a lamp power control function developed by Philips that will lower the total cost of ownership of the projector. ImageCare decreases energy usage, improves contrast ratio and can lengthen lamp life. Using Image Care technology, Intelligent Eco Mode automatically changes the brightness of the lamp according to the brightness level of the image. This feature gives optimal picture performance with maximum energy savings and can increase lamp life.

The Saver mode, based on ImageCare, reduces lamp power by 70 percent compared to the normal mode, resulting in considerable energy savings. Users can set the time for the Saver mode from one to 30 minutes. If the projected image does not change by the set time, the Saver mode is activated, reducing lamp brightness and lowering power consumption.

With Hitachi’s new Multi Projector function, users can project the same image to up to 12 projectors simultaneously, making it idea for presentations in large venues where a single screen would not be sufficient. In addition, Hitachi’s Moderator Control Mode lets users network 50 computers to the projector, with one computer acting as the moderator. This allows an instructor to use the moderator computer to select and project images from the students’ computers.

Each model includes Hitachi’s Campus Notification System and Network Messenger features for sending campus-wide announcements and important messages. Hitachi’s Projector Control (PJCtrl) application allows users to control the functions of their projector via a toolbar on their PC. Since all the functions for controlling the projector are on the PC, PJCtrl can help reduce costs associated with lost remote controls and battery replacement.

Brightness for each model is as follows:

-       CP-X2015WN: 2,400 ANSI Lumens (XGA Resolution)

-       CP-WX2515WN: 2,700 ANSI Lumens (WXGA Resolution)

-       CP-X2515WN: 2,700 ANSI Lumens (XGA Resolution)

-       CP-X3015WN: 3,200 ANSI Lumens (XGA Resolution)

-       CP-X4015WN: 4,000 ANSI Lumens (XGA Resolution)

-       CP-WX3015WN: 3,000 ANSI Lumens (WXGA Resolution)

The CP-X2514WN offers networking capability, allowing it to be remotely controlled via a LAN network connection. Hitachi’s exclusive PJMan® Projector Management software gives users the ability to operate and monitor the CP-X2514WN from a remote location, and receive diagnostic information.

In addition, the CP-X2514WN’s Moderator Control Mode lets users network 50 computers to a single projector, with one computer acting as the moderator. The presenter can use the moderator computer to select and project images from the students’ computers.

The CP-X2514WN weighs just 8.2 pounds and measures 12.5 x 3.9 x 11.3 inches and can project images up to 300 inches, making it easy to install in a wide variety of locations. A unique Hitachi feature is the projector’s Template function that displays white or black lines, making writing on a whiteboard or blackboard easier.

A built-in 10-watt amplifier and speaker eliminate the need to connect external speakers, and the mic input works even if the projector is in standby mode.

The Hitachi CP-A300N offers Perfect Fit technology, which simplifies installations by allowing for correction of all four corners and four sides of the image, eliminating problems such as barrel or pincushion distortion. In addition, the CP-A300N is available with an optional 6-axis wall mount. The projector’s Template function displays four types of line templates, making it easier to write on a whiteboard.
