Sanyo's new LCD projectors raise basic standards to a lofty new level. Designed for professional use, these models provide 10,000lm for exceptional brightness plus an 1100:1 contrast ratio (PLC-XF45) for extra clarity. Our High-Color-Purity Optical System (PLC-UF15) also boosts image beauty, while a new progressive IC enhances viewing quality when displaying video images. This all adds up to the emotional power, drama, and impact that only bright, beautiful, large-screen images can provide.
Each model employs a multi-lamp optical system that provides ighintensity projection. The PLC-UF15 and PLC-XF45 use four UHP lamps and achieves 7,700 and 10,000lm respectively. By stacking two projector units, more powerful projection with doubled intensity is possible. Choose the best projector for your needs from a wide and versatile lineup the PLC-UF15 with real 1,600 x 1,200 UXGA resolution, or PLC-XF45/XF41 featuring real 1,024 x 768 XGA resolution. Whichever SANYO projector you select will more than meet your requirements, including the display of CAD/CAM drawings, workstation design drawings or HDTV images*, providing them all with sharp, crisp definition.
By improving reproducibility of the three primary colors (red, blue, and green), this advanced Sanyo system helps deliver a superior overall color performance suitable for digital cinema applications.* PLC-UF15 only
All models feature two lighting modes: a high-brightness mode which has all lamps turned on; and an economy mode*1 which doubles the amount of usable time. The user simply selects the mode best suited for a particular environment. If one lamp is accidentally turned off when used in the high-brightness mode, the system automatically switches over to the economy mode. This failsafe function*2 prevents a presentation from being interrupted.

*1 In the economy mode, brightness is half that of the high-brightness mode.
*2 The PLC-UF15, PLC-XF41 and PLC-XF45 performs this function even in the economy mode (two-lamp mode) switching to a one-lamp mode, but color and brightness correction is not performed. A switchover to the one-lamp mode only occurs if an emergency should arise.
A newly developed progressive scan IC enhances image quality. Also, the use of an original circuit for line interpolation gives moving images a more natural and beautiful diagonal resolution. Full compatibility with 2-3 pull-down and high-definition TV signals (1080i) also assures superb quality when projecting film sources. It eliminates the problem of ghosting on images. The crosstalk canceller reduces signal interference between the drive circuits on the liquid crystal panels. Line/dot inversion reduces signal interference between pixels.
Each model employs a high-contrast optical system to produce a 1,100:1 contrast, a breakthrough ratio for liquid crystal transmission systems. The 10-bit digital gamma correction control function allows smoother gradation characteristics and controls gradation reproduction according to images input.
These models make use of the intelligent sharpness controller sharpen the detail of areas other than areas with steep image signals such as ruled lines and characters that are often prone to generate bright lines. Irrespective of the input mode for RGB/video, the controller delivers clearer, sharper images.
The 3D Automatic Uniformity Correction Control (AUCC) provides precise compensation at a total of 7,425 points. Compared with conventional systems*, this offers more than ten times the control over color problems caused by a lack of brightness conformity. The result is smoother, more natural gradation.

* Correction points of convensional AUCC cirucuit are 624.
Each model comes with three 3-D digital circuits: a 3-D digital progressive circuit for I/P conversion of 1080i signals; a 3-D digital Y/C separation circuit to increase resolution and reduce noise; a 3-D digital noise reduction circuit for reproducing
flicker-free, vivid images.
Eight different replaceable lenses, from short-fixed to long-fixed types, are optionally available. It is easy to exchange a lens. Simply mount the optional lens in the supplied adapter, and screw the adapter in place.* This makes it easier to adjust the white balance and gamma curve adjustments: simply compare the projected images from the enclosed CD-ROM* with the images on the enclosed photo sheet. Because you can view the image as you adjust the settings, it's easy to attain faithful color reproduction in almost any projection environment. This function also responds to professional needs by allowing precise color settings using the gamma curve for each RGB color. Once settings are correct, you can store them on a PC** and later retrieve them for easy set-up.

* Windows 98/Me/2000/XP
** One batch of settings can be saved in projector memory.

Each model has slots for accommodating input/output interface boards*, such as video boards and RGB boards. The RS-232C terminals including cross-through output terminals as well as input terminals, can be controlled by external devices for easily and flexibly configuring an ideal system for each user.

* Some boards can be installed to limited slots.
Each model provides digital keystone effect correction to compensate keystone distortions.
Adding this optional board gives you greater control over operational settings and remote management than you get with the conventional RS-232C interface.
Using the power-driven lens shift function* allows the user to move the projection screen about without lifting the main unit. This function is especially effective for projection with two units stacked.

NOTE:
Correction range: PLC-UF15: +30° – -20° PLC-XF45/XF41: +35° – -30°
Correction range differs depending on lens shift, throw distance, input signals, zoom ratio, etc. Aspect ratio of a projected image may be different from that of the LCD panel in some circumstances. Compensated images are slightly smaller than original images.
 
On-Start: Allows quick projection simply by switching the system on.
Power management function automatically turns the power off when no signals are enterd.
Retractable carrying bar.
Adjustable leg system with a pop-up handle and shuttle dials.
Many presentation support functions, including freeze,presentation timer, No Show and so on.
High-definition digital resizing with DRIT
USB terminal
Rear and hanging projection capability
Built-in stereo amplifier and speakers (3 W + 3 W)
Wireless/wired mouse remote controller with built-in laser pointer (LED indicator for laser pointer mode built-in).
RS-232C self-diagnostic function.
