These ultra-short throw projectors with a high-brightness of 3,100 lm*2,
which allow you to project images onto a large 80-inch screen with a
short projection distance of 0.60 m, are newly equipped with an interactive
function*1. These projectors are especially effective in schools and business.
Their 3D projections make events and exhibitions more impressive and
effective, providing a new range of application.

The ultra-short throw projector can be wall-mounted with an optional
wall mount bracket (ET-PKC200W). There is no need to worry about the
presenter’s shadow on the screen and glare of the projection light.
The interactive function*1allows
you to write on a projected image.
You can write or draw figures on the projected image with the Interactive
Pen/Pointer. The scanning camera frame rate of PT-CW331R/CW241R/
CX301R, which is twice as high as that of our existing products*

; ensures
smooth writing. In addition, two users can write simultaneously, to make
classes and presentations more effective. It is easy to store the words and
figures in a computer for information sharing.

10 W High-output Speaker Meet Your
Meeting/Seminar Room Needs.
The volume level of the 10 W high-output speaker is enough for meeting
rooms and classrooms; you do not need to use an external speaker. You can
make multi-media presentations.
The DLP™System Maintains Long-lasting,
Stable Performance.
In the DLP™system, the image quality does not
degrade with time due to long life of the device. You
can use the projector for various systems over a
long period without worry of quality loss. *8
Supporting Various 3D Systems
[Viewing 3D images]
View 3D images at a distance at least three times further than the height of the
screen. Each person views and feels the 3D images differently. In some cases,
the effects may cause viewers to feel sick. If you see double 3D images or do
not see stereoscopic images, you may feel fatigue or discomfort If you feel sick,
immediately stop viewing 3D images. Children younger than five or six years old
should not view 3D images.
DLP™ Link™
As synchronized signals are contained between the frames (images) for
the left and right eyes, you can build a 3D system without the need for the
optional emitter.
HDMI Input Terminal Supports 3D
The HDMI input terminal supports 3D. Connect a 3D Blu-ray player to the
projector to project Blu-ray 3D images.
3D-compatible Signal
Supports Frame Packing, Side-by-Side, Top-and-Bottom, and
Frame Sequential method.
“Crestron Connected™” Compatible
The wired LAN terminal supports Crestron’s application software, “Crestron
Connected™”, which can control various system devices by using a personal
computer connected to the network.
Audio Can Be Output in Standby Mode
Audio can be output from the audio output terminal in Standby mode*11. This
function is useful when the audio output terminal is connected to the external
audio system *12 via the projector.
Ensuring a Long
Lamp Replacement Cycle
The lamp replacement cycle for the
PT-CW331R/CW330/CX301R/CX300 is 4,000
hours*9; and for the PT-CW241R/CW240 is
5,000 hours*9. Such long replacement cycles
reduce the hassle and the cost of maintenance,
while minimizing environmental impact.
Extensive Interfaces with an HDMI Input Terminal
Extensive interfaces, including two sets of computer (RGB) input terminals,
one set of computer (RGB) output terminals and an HDMI input terminal,
allows a wide range of system configurations.

3D Projection Ensuring powerful images
The projector delivers 3D images.You can enjoy powerful 3D images with
a reproduction apparatus and the 3D glasses*7. The combination of this
system with the short-throw function enables space-saving 3D projection,
helping you create innovative and attractive presentations.

* 7 To view 3D images, DLP™ Link™ active-shutter 3D glasses are separately re-
quired. (In the active shutter system, the right/left liquid crystal shutter is opened
and closed alternately according to projected images.)(The active-shutter 3D
glasses with refresh rate of 96 – 144 Hz are recommended.3D images of 60 Hz
can also be viewed by a 120 Hz compatible device.)

This is the maximum value when the lamp power is set to Eco mode where the lamp
is turned on for 2 hours and off for 0.25 hours. If the lamp is turned on more times or
kept on for a long time, the lamp replacement cycle will shorten. In Normal mode, the
lamp replacement cycle is 3,000 hours (3,500 hours for PT-CW241R/CW240). The usage
environment affects the duration of the lamp.

Specifications
Do not install the projector in locations that are subject to excessive water, humidity, steam or oily smoke. Doing so may result in fire, malfunction or electric shock.
Caution
1 The projector uses a high-voltage mercury lamp under high internal pressure. This lamp may break, emitting a popping
sound, or fail to illuminate, due to impact or extended use.
2 The high-wattage lamp becomes very hot during operation. Please observe the following precautions:
• Never place objects on top of the projector while it is in operation.
• Make sure there is an unobstructed space of 500 mm (19-11/16 in) or more around the projector’s exhaust openings.
• If stacking projector units, care must be taken to provide the recommended space between units. These space
requirements also apply to installation where only one projector unit is operating at one time and the other unit is used
as a backup.
• If the projector is placed in a box or enclosure, the temperature of the air surrounding the projector must match the
operating temperature listed in the specifications table during use. Also, make sure the projector’s intake and exhaust
openings are not blocked. Ensure there is sufficient ventilation to prevent hot air from the exhaust openings being
recirculated into the intake opening.
3 The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short periods.
• The lamp replacement cycle varies greatly depending on individual lamp characteristics and usage conditions.
• The brightness of the lamp will gradually decrease with use.
4 Due to natural characteristics of lamps, screen brightness may fluctuate. This is not an indication of faulty lamp performance.
