Enabling serial-based devices to communicate over a Local Area Network/Wide Area Network (LAN/WAN) or the Internet, machine-to-machine communications, made possible by Lantronix XPort device networking technology, allows maintenance personnel to access, monitor and control equipment and its performance from any location at any time adding an unprecedented level
of real-time business intelligence.
By combining Mitsubishi’s ProjectorView Control System software with the XPort built-in web server, a remote user is able to proactively monitor each projector’s performance including its lamp and internal temperature, how long the lamp has been running, last maintenance and installation data in real-time via a simple PC browser. Mitsubishi maintenance personnel now can remotely operate fundamental functions of each projector over the Internet. Mitsubishi selected Lantronix XPort
for three of its projectors, including their XGA DLP(tm) Projectors in the U.S. and two other models sold for the Japanese market.
