This section intr oduces you to your new PLUS UP-800 Da ta
Projector, pro vides a list of ma terials that comes with y our
projector and describes the features and controls.
Congratulations On  Your Purchase Of The UP-800
Data Projector
T he UP-800 is one of the v ery best Da ta projector s available
today. T he UP-800 ena bles you to project precise images up
to 300 inches across (measured diagonally) from your PC or
Macintosh computer (desktop or note book),  VCR, docu-
ment camer a, or even a laser disc pla yer.
Y ou can use the pr ojector on a tabletop or car t, y ou can
permanently mount it on a ceiling*, or you can use UP-800
Data Projector to project images from behind the screen.
The r emote contr ol can be used wir elessly and y ou can e ven
use the r emote contr ol with the r emote mouse r eceiver to
operate the mouse on your PC or Mac.
The features youÕll enjoy include:
¥ Super ior brightness of 600  ANSI lumens with  A4 size and
4.5 kilograms.
T he DMD and our o wn optical design inter act in a geo-
metr ic effect to incr ease the light usa ge ef ficiency . Now
you can reproduce the 3 basic colors (RGB) required for
color r eproduction on a single DMD . That means supe-
rior brightness, smaller size and lighter weight.
¥ Sharp, clear images
There is no RGB color running, and the spaces between
the indi vidual bots do not stic k out. That means shar p and
clear repr oduction of small c haracters and figures. Take a
c loser look and notice the dif ference in quality!
¥ Outstanding beauty w hen reproducing D VDs and other
high picture-quality information sources.
F aithful r eproduction of g radations of b lack and w hite for
more na tural image displa ys. The pr ojector can bring its
intr insic displa y capacities e ven more to bear with D VDs
and other high picture-quality information sources.
¥ Screen does not distort to a trapezoid when projecting to
the height of the of vision.
Because the projection position is already set to the
height of the line of vision, there is no distortion of the
screen to a trapezoid.
¥ Fully compatib le with SVGA, XGA compr essed display.
There is complementing of thinned out information when
displaying XGAs to eliminate missing characters.Note: Composite video standards are as follows:
NTSC: U.S. TV standard for video in U.S. and Canada.
PAL: TV standard used in western Europe
SECAM: TV standard used in France and Eastern Europe
NTSC4.43:TV standard used in Middle East countries
¥The remote control can be used with or without a cable,
and y ou can e ven use the r emote to oper ate y our PC or
Macintosh mouse wirelessly from across the room with
the r emote mouse r eceiver.
¥ Y ou can contr ol your UP-800 with a PC.
¥ The contemporary cabinet design is compact, easy to
carry,  and complements an y office, board room or audito-
rium.
* Installing the UP-800 Data Projector on the ceiling must
be done by authorized PLUS technicians. Consult your
dealer for more information.
