XJ-SC215 Series Model Name Brightness USB Port (with host function) XJ-SC Series XJ-SC215 2,500 ANSI lumens Built-in XJ-SC210 - XJ-S Series XJ-S57 3,000 ANSI lumens Built-in XJ-S52 - XJ-S47 2,700 ANSI lumens Built-in XJ-S42 - XJ-S37 2,300 ANSI lumens Built-in XJ-S32 - TOKYO, June 19,2008 - Casio Computer Co., Ltd., announced today the release of eight new Super Slim Projector models in its XJ-SC and XJ-S series. The new data projectors boast the world’s slimmest body,* only 32mm at the thinnest point (with a maximum height of 43mm). The models in the XJ-SC series feature a high-fidelity color-rendering light engine algorithm that delivers improved color reproduction. * In comparison to commercially available data projectors as of June 19, 2008, according to a Casio survey XJ-SC Series By adopting a high-fidelity color-rendering light engine algorithm and improving the color wheel, Casio has enlarged the color region by approximately 10% over previous models (XJ-S46/S41). These enhancements make for a more color-accurate image with better maintained white rendering and improved yellows and magentas for more natural reproduction, as well as more vivid reds and blues. Casio offers two models in this series: the XJ-SC215 with USB port and the XJ-SC210. XJ-S Series Casio has achieved improved brightness over previous XJ-S Series models (XJ-S46/41) through enhancements to the color-rendering light engine and cooling system. The XJ-S57/S52 pack a powerful 3,000 ANSI lumens and the XJ-S47/S42 put out 2,700 ANSI lumens. With superb cost-performance and 2,300 ANSI lumens the XJ-S37/S32 round out the XJ-S Series line up. The XJ-S57/S47/S37 all have a USB port. All models are equipped with a wide-angle 2X power zoom, providing the highest magnification available in a data projector and enabling projection from distances as close as 0.84 m. Boasting the world's thinnest body, Casio's Super Slim Projectors measure only 32mm at the thinnest point, with a maximum height of 43mm. Excellent portability makes Super Slim Series projectors ideal for a range of venues and applications, from daily meetings to full-scale presentations. These new models feature RS-232C connectivity, so power and input functions can be controlled through off-the-shelf remote control units, essential for fixed ceiling installations. Models that have a USB port with a host function can load and show many forms of data* with no PC connected, including presentations, spreadsheets, word processed documents, and PDF files. Or, an optionally available USB wireless adapter frees users to deliver presentations from a PC without having to stay near the projector. * Compatible with JPEG/BMP/AVI (compatible with MPEG4/Motion JPEG). Still images not in JPEG/BMP formats must be converted using the bundled PC software. XJ-S57 Main Features of the New Super Slim Projectors • Achieve true color reproduction with an approximately 10% larger color region (XJ-SC215/SC210) • Permit projection without a PC or through a wireless PC connection (XJ-S57/S47/S37, XJ-SC215) • Wide-angle 2X power zoom - highest magnification in any data projector • "Vertical auto-keystone correction" automatically corrects for keystone distortion • "Direct power ON/OFF" functions reduce set-up and take-down times • True XGA displays permit compressed display of WXGA/WSXGA+/UXGA, etc. • Vertical image inversion feature enables projection from fixed ceiling installations • Control terminal (RS-232C standard) enables the power to be turned on and off and input signals to be switched remotely Main Specifications of the New Super Slim Projectors SERIES XJ-SC Series XJ-S Series Model Name XJ-SC215 XJ-SC210 XJ-S57 XJ-S52X XJ-S47 XJ-S42 XJ-S37 XJ-S32 Brightness 2,500 ANSI lumens 3,000 ANSI lumens 2,700 ANSI lumens 2,300 ANSI lumens Lamp 210W high-pressure mercury lamp Contrast Ratio 1800:1 (in telephoto mode) Digital Vertical Keystone Correction Auto: ±30° Manual: ±30° Focusing Manual focus (electric) Projection Lens Optical 2X electric zoom Projection Screen Size 15 inches to 300 inches Projection Range Minimum: 0.84 meters 60" screen: 1.7 to 3.4 meters, 100" screen: 2.8 to 5.6 meters Projection System DLP® System Display Element 0.55" DLP® chip 786,432 pixels (1,024 × 768) Color Reproduction Full color (16.77 million colors) RGB Input Terminals RGB Mini D-Sub 15 pin × 1 (YCbCr/YPbPr input, shared) TRUE XGA (1,024×768) Compressed Maximum: UXGA (1,600×1,200) Video Signal Input NTSC/PAL/PAL-N/PAL-M/PAL60/SECAM Input Terminals Composite:3.5mm mini jack ×1 (audio input and output, shared) YCbCr/YPbPr: Mini D-Sub 15 pin × 1 (RGB input, shared) Audio Input/Output Terminal 3.5mm mini jack x 1 (video input, shared) Speaker 1W monaural Other terminals USB (1.1) Host TypeA×1 - TypeA×1 - TypeA×1 - TypeA×1 - Control Terminal RS-232C×1 (requires separately sold serial conversion cable YK-5 for connection) Power AC100 to 240V, 50/60Hz Power Consumption Operating power: 270W (220W in power-saving mode) Standby power:1.2W (100-120V) / 1.8W (220-240V) Dimensions 270 (W) × 199 (D) × 43 (H) mm (32mm at thinnest point.)
