VARIETY OF OPTIONAL LENSES
The VPL-FX52 is supplied with a power lens as standard.
The VPL-FX52L, which is not equipped with a lens, is ideal
where a specific application requires a special lens. There
are three alternative lens types available as options,
enabling the VPL-FX52L to be installed in a wide range of
applications – from long-distance projection in large audi-
toriums to short-distance rear projection applications.
Back-to-Front Tilt Capability
Twin Stacking Capability
When applications require double the light output, the
VPL-FX52/L can be twin-stacked to produce an amazing
12,000 ANSI lumens. Pictures from the two projectors are
then matched using the Picture Shift function on each unit.
NETWORK CAPABILITY
Because the VPL-FX52 is equipped with an Ethernet inter-
face and complies with TCP/IP protocols, a number of net-
work-based functions can be performed. Using a web
browser, the projector’s current status can, for example,
be verified and simple settings can be checked and
altered. The system can even be set up to send automatic
e-mail reports for scheduled maintenance, including pro-
jected lamp life and error reports.
The optional VPLL-FM21 projection lens cannot be used when the
VPL-FX52 or VPL-FX52L are stacked.
WIDE RANGE OF INPUTS
The VPL-FX52/L projector accepts a wide variety of input
signals up to HDTV, as well as computer signals up to
UXGA. What’s more, it is also equipped with a DVI-D con-
nector that can be used to connect a digital RGB device
and supports high-precision signal connection with a
workstation or other device.
DIRECT POWER ON
This selectable function enables the projector to be turned
on and off via a wall switch or circuit breaker. This is espe-
cially useful for environments that do not have sophisticat-
ed control systems, such as auditoriums and conference
halls in museums and schools.

■ 3-LCD system light efficiency is excellent as each colour (Red, Green & Blue)
is projected onto the screen at the same time. This provides a bright image
and does not cause colour separation to the final image.
