Other Features
6000 Hours Lamp Life   
A new driving scheme reduces gap 
expansion which minimises brightness 
gradation. A new cooling system allows 
uniformity in the temperature of the  
glass bulb which prevents the glass  
from clouding. 
Vertical Keystone Adjustment
The projectors can correct keystone distortion 
by +/- 5% for perfect installation adjustment 
to the smart board or screen. (Note that 
since this is an electronic correction, it will 
reduce the picture quality slightly.)
Digital Zoom
With Digital Zoom, users can enlarge a 
selected area of a computer-sourced 
image on the screen up to four times.
Six Picture Modes
The VPL-SW525 and VPL-SW525C have six 
available picture modes for correct picture 
quality; Dynamic, Standard, Game, Living, 
Cinema and Presentation.  With six picture 
modes and 3 brightness modes 
combined, users can select the most 
suitable picture/brightness mode according 
to the picture source and environment for 
the perfect image.    
3LCD BrightEra Technology
The Sony 0.75 inch BrightEra inorganic TFT 
3LCD panels deliver improved panel light 
resistance, higher resolution, high brightness 
and increased panel reliability.
Digital / HD Ready
With the HDMI input, the projectors can 
accept digital signals from a PC or video 
source.
Smart APA (Auto Pixel Alignment)
When a computer is used as a picture 
source, APA automatically optimises Phase, 
Pitch and Shift values. These can also be 
adjusted manually.
Auto Input Search
Auto Input Search detects which input has 
an incoming signal and automatically 
switches to it. This makes it easier for users to 
set up the projector prior to making a 
presentation.
Picture Muting / Audio Muting
If there is a need to blackout the image or 
turn off the audio from the projector, all it 
takes is a single button-press on the remote 
control. One button will mute audio and 
image at the same time. There is also a 
separate “mute audio” button for audio-
only muting.
Audio Switcher Facility
To avoid the need for a separate audio 
switcher, the projector can be used to 
select between two audio sources, routing 
them via a variable audio output to the 
room amplification system.
Picture Freeze Function
Picture Freeze is useful during presentations 
where users need to look at other material 
on their PC’s screen without the viewing 
audience being aware. Freeze the current 
image and users can use their PC 
independently of the display from the 
projector.
Off and Go
At the end of a presentation, users can turn 
off the power supply to the projector 
immediately, instead of going through a 
‘power down’ cycle. 
Direct Power On/Off
With this function, there is no need to go 
through ‘Standby’ mode when powering up 
the projector. The projector can be set to 
activate as soon as power is supplied.
Built-in Security Measures
The projectors have a package of security 
measures, including password protection 
and physical anti-theft anchor points.
Web Control and Monitoring / E-mail Report
Built-in Web Browser IE allows the user or AV 
manager to check a projector status 
remotely. Power ON/STANDBY, input/output, 
lamp usage (hours) can be controlled. An 
E-mail address can also be set to notify 
lamp exchange/replacement or any 
unexpected problems.
