Infocus IN24+EP projector

Infocus IN24+EP education projector
The Infocus IN24+EP projector at 4.4kg is designed with portable use in mind and can easily be moved between rooms within your organisation.
The brightness of a projector determines how large an image can be displayed on screen and therefore the audience size. Projector brightness is measured in ANSI lumens. The higher the number of ANSI lumens, the brighter the projector is. All our projectors are designed for indoor use and cannot be used in direct sunlight. The Infocus IN24+EP has 2200 ANSI lumens which can be used for larger venues such as school halls and conference rooms which seat a 100 people.

This projector is for use with computers that display a 800x600 (SVGA) pixel image. You can check the resolution of your computer on a Windows computer by opening the Control Panel and double-clicking on the Display icon. Then click on the Settings tab. Please note that most notebook and desktop computers produced in the last 2 years now use the 1024x768 (XGA) resolution. This projector can display a 1024x768 image but uses a method called compression to display the 1024x768 lines into a 800x600 display area. To do this lines are missed out which doesn't give as good an image as a projector designed for XGA. However, you can lower the resolution on your computer to 800x600 when designing and giving presentations if necessary.
The Infocus IN24+EP projector can be used with video recorders, DVD players, video cameras, satellite systems, TV games consoles and other video sources. The computer resolution does not affect the video preformance and has a lower buy price that an similar XGA projector.
This projector has built-in sound but this gives limited volume. If high quality or high volume sound is required then consider connecting to an amplifier or surround sound system (home cinema or professional). Computer sound can be played through the existing computer speakers which is normally adequate for computer presentations in small rooms.

This projector has a lamp life of approximately 2000 hours. Projectors come with a lamp installed but please note that replacement lamps usually cost between ฃ300-ฃ400+VAT for most projectors on the UK market. The lamp life of the Infocus IN24+EP projector is around average of most UK projectors, but a few projectors have higher lamp life.

The Infocus IN24+EP projector is new and comes with a 3 year manufacturers swap-out warranty, excluding the lamp and excluding accidental damage. A swap out warranty means that the manufacturer will send you out a replacement unit and collect the faulty projector, usually next working day.
This projector is supplied with all cables needed to connect to a PC notebook or desktop computer. If you will be using this with an Apple Macintosh computer or UNIX workstation, then you may need to purchase additional cables. This machine is not supplied with video cables. Scart or S-Video cables can be purchased from local electronic goods stores such as Dixons or Curry's for around ฃ10 in the UK.
This projector uses DLP technology.

what is a DLP projector?

DLP (digital light processing)
technology is used on some of the smallest, lightest projectors currently available. Thousands of tiny mirrors, each of which represents one pixel, are used to reflect light in order to produce a digital image. DLP projectors have a colour wheel through which light projects, to give sharper, clear, rich colours for video images. As they are digital, they produce clear images time after time, and are not subject to the same degree of colour fading over time, as LCD projectors.
