Feature
Easy maintenance
Dust-resistant
Ingestion of dust into the projector leads to reduced brightness and a deterioration in picture quality.
The PLC-XC56/XC50A features a new dust-resistant design that limits the movement of air through the projector to the intake and exhaust vents.
A lens cover helps keep dust from finding its way into the projector around the lens, a longstanding problem with conventional designs.
A sliding cover plays the same role for the focus and zoom controls.
AMF (Active Maintenance Filter) system
Build-in airflow and air pressure sensors detect intake airflow during operation. When a clogged filter is detected due to airflow falling below a certain threshold, the filter is advanced automatically to replace the dirty surface with a clean one, eliminating the need to clean the filter. The filter cartridge replacement cycle is about one year*1.
The PLC-XC56/XC50A's use of a large filter approximately three times as fine as previous models*2 keeps even microscopic dust from entering the projector.
*1 Guidelines based on 8 hours of use per day
(actual filter operating time: approx. 3,000 hours).
(Based on accelerated testing in the JIS D-0207 experimental environment.)

Lamp repacement on top cabinet
Access to the lamp from the top of the projector means you can replace the lamp on ceiling-mounted projectors without needing to take down the projector.
Network Function
Wired LAN (RJ-45) for projector control (PLC-XC56)
This model is equipped with wired LAN (RJ-45) capability that allows you to manage and control the projector via network. You can check the operating time of the lamp and manage warning notifications by email. Power ON/OFF and switching of the input signal can be controlled. This saves you a lot of time managing and controlling the projector.
Higher security
Security bar
The PLC-XC56/XC50A's security bar delivers enhanced security performance by accommodating commercially available wire cables up to 11 mm in diameter. These strong cables are an effective way to prevent equipment theft.
PIN number lock
A PIN number can be set to restrict operation of the projector to administrators. This feature makes it possible to prevent unintended changes to settings and unauthorized operation by third parties, enabling the projector to be used with peace of mind even in permanent installations.
Convenient functions
7 W speaker
Along with its mobility, the PLC-XC56/XC50A features a high-output 7 W speaker that delivers sufficient audio authority for the projector to be used in conference rooms, classrooms, and other spaces without the need for a separate sound system.
Easy setup
An auto setup function searches for an input signal and performs keystone correction once the projector is put in place and turned on, simplifying setup.
Automatic keystone correction
Automatic digital correction of keystone distortion caused by the relative position of the projector and the screen makes it easy to set up the projector (correction angle: up to ± 20° vertically).
Extensive selection of input jacks
The PLC-XC56/XC50A provides industry-standard digital interface support with a DVI-I input jack and D-Sub 15-pin input and output jacks.

Blackboard/color board mode
This mode lets you use a blackboard as a projection screen*3.
It adjusts the colors to make images look similar to those projection to an ordinary white screen.
*3 The colors of images projected onto a blackboard or color board may vary from those of the original input signal.
1.2x zoom lens
A 1/4x to 16x digital zoom function complements 1.2x optical zoom,increasing the flexibility with which the PLC-XC56/XC50A can be positioned for use.
Power off and go
An easy-off function enables the projector to be unplugged immediately without waiting for the lamp to cool down.
Silence Design 27.5dBA (eco mode)
The operating noise is barely noticeabele, even in quiet settings like conference rooms and AV rooms.
