Sources selected include, but are not limited to, 480/60p, 575/50p, 1080/50i, 1080&1250/50i, 720/60p, 720/50p.   Flexible Input Capability Composite, S Video, component, YCbCr, YPbPr, and RGB.   New RGB Enhancer For Crisp RGB Images a powerful circuit enhances detail.

Digital Keystone Correction
Corrects for image distortion caused by projecting the image too high relative to the projection angle. This is very useful for presenters on the go.  Advanced APA Function Auto Pixel Alignment allows the users to lock to source signal with the touch of a button for best appearance.  USB Hub Makes digital connectivity simple yet powerful. Connect to other projectors using Projector Station™ Software and control up to 127 different projectors from one computer. This port also enables mouse control from the projector's remote control.

Bi-level Lamp Power Selector
Lamp Mode can be set to High or Low depending on ambient light conditions. The lamps low setting will extend lamp life by approximately two times. Low level light output is approximately 2100 ANSI lumens.

Auto Input Search
When Auto Input SEL is "ON", the VPL-PX31 searches the input channels and skips "NO INPUT" channels. Auto input is triggered when the input key is pressed or the projector is powered on.  Discrete Input Selection the video and S-video inputs can be discretely selected or accessed via the more traditional toggle command.
