Hitachi CPx605 in ceiling mount in classroom

To use the projector:

connect the HDMI cable (for example) at the front of the classroom to the projecting device;
turn the projector on (on the bottom of the projector);
use the 'input' button to select the input (also on the bottom of the projector).

Specs:

Native resolution of 1024x768 at 4000 lumens (note that brightness matters more than resolution for a large lecture space)
Mounted on the ceiling with SVGA and HDMI connections available.
HDMI does not currently have sound (Uses proprietary M1-D adapter for HDMI connection) - could possibly add audio via HDMI audio breakout box

Needs:

Needs Ethernet hookup and IP control (webpage, app or similar) or replacement Hitach R002 Projector Remote if not delicately pushing buttons on the unit itself.
Needs Default Hackspace logo instead of generic HITACHI freeze-frame logo.
Needs digital labels for inputs set
Could use a colour calibration or similar.

Maintenance Info:

Replacement bulbs (Hitachi DT00771 and compatibles) are not too expensive on eBay - Prices range from 35 to 100 GBP.
Should not be removed or borrowed from the Hackspace

Rear ports view:

Beautiful variety of ports for all projection occasions
