Christie Digital Systems x4 is a powerful and versatile projector that is perfect for a variety of applications, including rental staging, corporate events, and trade shows. With its high brightness of 4000 ANSI lumens, the x4 can project images that are clear and visible even in brightly lit environments. The x4 also features a wide range of connectivity options, making it easy to connect to a variety of sources, including computers, DVD players, and Blu-ray players.
One of the most impressive features of the x4 is its Intelligent Lens System (ILS™). This system allows you to store and recall lens positions and source parameters, making it easy to set up the projector for different applications. The x4 also features a built-in light shutter, which can be used to block the light output of the projector when it is not in use. This can help to extend the life of the lamp and reduce power consumption.

Passing rigorous and extensive 3rd party testing, the new ruggedized Roadster X4 is engineered for life on the road. A workhorse projector outputting 4,000 ANSI lumens by way of a power saving 700W Xenon CERMAX® illumination system. The X4 delivers unmatched grayscale consistency and color temperature stability in a package that consumes almost 50% less power than its nearest rival, making event-staging projection accessible to even more venues. Incredible horizontal and vertical lens offset Christie Digital’s long-standing expertise employing 3-chip DLP™ technology enables you to take full advantage of the Roadster’s digital capabilities. Fitted with a digital interface, the Roadster X4 can project a digital signal from source to screen without signal conversion – ensuring a 100% digitally perfect image reproduction every time. Making the Roadster X4 the ideal choice for projecting HDTV and DTV images as they were intended. In keeping with our edict of offering purpose-built solutions, all models in the Roadster series are fitted with Christie Digital’s proprietary Intelligent Lens System (ILS™) and LiteLOC™ facility. The former, a fully motorized lens system allows for the automatic recall of lens position and source parameters upon changing source, not only reducing set-up times but also making it possible to stage more sophisticated events with lower labor costs. While the latter gives you full control of the X4’s programmable power supply. Lightweight and simple to use stacking kit Carreras Charity Gala - Germany The Roadster series is compatible with the widest range of sources and supported by a complete range of both fixed and zoom lenses (with bayonet-style insertion for fast lens change). And because the Roadster X4 has such tremendous lens offset and electronic keystone, the X4 can accommodate even the most demanding staging environment. This off-set and keystoning capability combines well with the systems functional, unobtrusive design and compact size making it the ideal system for stacking solutions. The Roadster X4 can be easily flown via integrated fly-points or via a newly designed stacking rig, The X4’s modular structure provides easy access to the X4’s internal systems via a quick-release side panel – even when rigged to fly. The Roadster X4 also shares a common modular architecture with all the other models in the Roadster series. If your projection needs change, your Roadster X4 projection system can change to meet them. The X4 can be upgraded at only an incremental cost and deliver stunning true SXGA resolution images at 6000 ANSI lumens. Rugged, robust and reliable this 92lbs-workhorse projector takes the stress and strain out of event staging and is engineered for life on the road.
