DLP®Technology
DLP
®
technology from Texas Instruments
®
is widely recognised and acclaimed
for its unmatched reliability and long lasting image performance. When combined
with high brightness and native contrast ratios, it becomes the obvious choice
for demanding applications. Independent testing has proven DLP
®
to be the
most reliable of projector technologies. Whilst other technologies may show
image quality decline after only a few thousand hours, DLP
®
technology can
remain unchanged over hundreds of thousands of hours.
Stunning Image Quality
Full HD 1080p technology delivers impeccable image quality
associated with the best digital cinema performance around the world.
Digital HDMI or DVI signals create a true digital projection system that
produces a spectacular High Definition display. This unprecedented
combination ensures natural, life-like images with crystal clarity.
XGA Resolution
1080p Resolution
UHP lamps
The 370W UHP lamp provides the highest possible luminance, the
essential prerequisite of all highly efficient projectors.
These lamps have outstanding brightness, stay brighter for longer, and
provide an optimal colour spectrum. In addition, the lamp drivers are
specifically tuned for the lamps, ensuring not only optimum operating
conditions for every situation, but also provide sophisticated lamp
pulsing modes and the assurance that colour can be fine-tuned
according to the application.
Clear, Focused Images
DarkChip3™ technology from Texas Instruments produces a stunning
2000:1 contrast ratio for pin sharp graphics and crystal clear text.
Crisper whites, ultra-rich blacks makes images come alive and text
easier to read.
2000:1 Contrast Ratio
Amazing Colours
The EH503 incorporates BrilliantColor™ technology to produce
stunningly bright images with perfectly balanced life-like colours.
5
Superb image quality is at the heart of every ProScene product design. At every step, commencing with the incredibly reliable,
high resolution 1080p DLP®chip where the image is initially created, via the UHP lamp pulsing technology that fine tunes the
colour to exacting standards, through to the precision optics to focus the image on a screen, accuracy and integrity of the image
are paramount.
ProScene chose DLP®technology for its image quality and unmatched reliability. The reflective nature of DLP®micro-mirror
technology provides highly efficient bright images with great contrast whilst maintaining precise colour accuracy and natural,
real-world colour reproduction. For demanding professional applications, the proven reliability of DLP®technology makes it the
obvious choice.

Installation Flexibility
To help meet the seemingly limitless challenges of ProAV installations,
the EH503 provides multiple lens options with zoom and focus
adjustment to ensure you can get the image size you require, while a
wide lens shift range helps you get the image exactly where you want it.
All 3 optional lenses, including the 0.77:1 short throw lens can use the
full lens shift range.

DICOM simulation mode
Designed specifically for larger meeting rooms and lecture theatres, the
EH503 includes a special DICOMsim mode that has been specifically
tuned for viewing greyscale images, perfect for viewing X-rays and
scans during medical training.*
*The EH503 is not suitable for use in medical diagnosis.
3D Technology
Using the inherent speed of DLP®technology, Optoma Full 3D
projectors can output video and images at an astonishing rate of
120Hz, allowing you to show full screen, full colour, stereoscopic 3D.
The 3D effect is generated by splitting this signal into two standard
video streams, one for each eye. Using DLP®Link™ technology, the
3D glasses synchronise with the image on screen to filter each stream
to the correct eye. Your brain then combines the two streams to make
them jump into life.
The EH503 supports multiple 3D formats from various devices such
as PC, Blu-ray 3D™, Sony®PS3, Microsoft®Xbox 360 or 3D TV
broadcast system.
Edge Blending Tools
No two projectors are completely identical. When performing complex,
or even simple edge-blend projects using multiple projectors, it can
be difficult to achieve good results if the images do not match. The
EH503 incorporates the following features to ensure high quality and
consistent results.
Colour matching
The EH503 has a full 3-axis colour matching system, which combined
with accurate measurements can create seamless blends every time.
Brightness matching
The brightness of a projector will vary throughout its life. To correctly
match multiple units, the EH503 has 10x lamp power steps between
80~100% full brightness.
Without With
Wired Remote
The wired remote connection allows all aspects of the projector to be
individually controlled without requiring a line-of-sight to the projector;
invaluable when using multiple units during live events.
Flexibility
Features

System Integration Control
Multiple EH503 can be monitored over LAN and can also provide the user with an email message alert in case an error occurs or a lamp fails
or needs to be replaced using Crestron Roomview. The web browser interface and full support for Telnet, Extron’s IP Link, AMX dynamic device
discovery and PJ-Link protocols, allow almost all aspects of the EH503 to be controlled across a network, keeping you in control, wherever you are.

Eco Friendly
Cut up to 30% from your engergy bills using 24-hour automated
power scheduling to ensure that projectors power off when
not in use.
Direct Power On
The projector will start up instantly when power is supplied
to the Unit. This eliminates the need to manually turn on the
projector via the remote control or the keypad, ideal for use in
rooms with a “master” power switch.
Signal Power On
The projector will power on when it receives a signal through
one of the PC/video inputs. This ensures that the projector is
only switched on when it is needed.
Auto Power Off
If after a pre-determined time the projector does not receive a
signal, it will turn itself off automatically, conserving power and
extending the life of the lamp.
Eco Standby Mode
Reduces energy consumption to less than 0.5W
when the projector is not in use.

z
Eco AV Mute & Eco Sleep
Direct your audience’s attention away from the screen
by blanking the image when no longer needed. When Eco
AV-mute is enabled, or if no source is found after 60 seconds,
the projector will automatically put the lamp into Eco mode,
both saving power and further prolonging the life of your lamp.

1Brightness and lamp lifetime will vary depending on selected projector mode, environmental conditions and usage. As is common with all lamp based projectors, brightness will decrease over the lamp lifetime. 2Typical lamp life achieved
through testing. Will vary according to operational use and environmental conditions. Optoma guarantees that in normal use, Optoma DLP®colour quality will be indistinguishable from when new. Exclusions: (a) Guarantee is voided if the
projector is subject to damage through misuse. (b) Guarantee may be void in industrial or commercial entertainment environments where dust or smoke is excessive (c) Guarantee will not apply if lamp brightness is below 50% due to wear
