REFERENCE / GLOSSARY
A plain-language decision glossary
The Neon+ glossary explains projector terms that affect selection, setup and ownership. It keeps model facts separate from general category language and shows why a specification must be read with the room, source device and service terms. Definitions are concise starting points; the exact current product sheet and written sale terms remain the authority for a purchase.

TERM 01ANSI lumens
ANSI lumens describe projector light output using a standardised measurement approach. The figure supports comparison, but it does not predict the viewed image by itself. Ambient light, image size, wall or screen characteristics and viewing distance all change the result. For the verified Neon+ V6, the stated figure is 600 ANSI lumens. That number should stay beside the exact model and date rather than being applied to another Neon+ unit. A buyer can turn the term into evidence by holding image width and room light constant, displaying the same small text and dark content, and viewing from the intended seats. BenQ Malaysia's brightness guidance is useful external context because it also connects brightness with room conditions. The practical question is therefore not simply which number is larger. It is whether the model produces a readable, comfortable image in the actual room at the intended size. The term does not prove daylight performance, picture quality or suitability without that room test.

Native resolution is the projector's own physical pixel grid. It is different from the resolutions a port or processor may accept as an input, because an accepted signal can still be scaled to the native grid for display. The verified Neon+ V6 native resolution is 1280 x 800. This model-specific figure is especially relevant for worksheets, interface screens and diagrams with small labels. During a comparison, ask every projector for its own native resolution and keep the source device, image size and test content consistent. Displaying a colourful video alone may hide scaling or text-legibility differences. A higher accepted input figure does not change the physical native grid, and the term does not prove that every file or protected service will play. Use the V6 specification page for the supplied model record and the selection guide for a repeatable test. Do not transfer the V6 figure to another Neon+ model without its current sheet.

Throw ratio connects lens-to-image distance with image width. A ratio of 1.2:1 means that a two metre-wide image needs about 2.4 metres of throw before practical clearances and the exact lens position are considered. The verified 1.2:1 figure belongs to the Neon+ V6 only. It should not be used for another model without that model's own sheet. Measure from the intended lens position, not from the back of a table or room, and confirm the usable image area before fixing furniture or a mount. Leave room for ventilation, power and a safe cable path. A calculated fit is a planning check rather than proof of focus, brightness or sightline quality. The classroom setup guide shows how to combine the calculation with front-corner, back-row and teacher-position checks. A physical test remains the final verification because room obstacles and usable wall area can change the result. Record the measured result beside the calculation before relying on the placement.

DLP is a projection technology developed by Texas Instruments. At its core is a digital micromirror device containing microscopic mirrors that direct light to form an image. The name identifies the imaging technology; it does not by itself establish resolution, brightness, colour performance, light-source life or suitability for a room. The verified Neon+ V6 sheet identifies Texas Instruments DLP, so the term can be used for that model. A buyer should still read it beside the V6's native resolution, brightness, throw ratio and light source, then test representative content. Texas Instruments' own DLP material is the authoritative external reference for how the technology works. In a comparison, avoid treating DLP as a complete quality score or applying a generic DLP claim to a specific unit. The product sheet and room test remain necessary because projectors using the same broad technology can have very different specifications and intended uses. Ask what the label changes in the decision and which separate specifications still require verification.

RGB-LED describes a light-source arrangement using red, green and blue light-emitting diodes. It identifies how coloured light is produced, but it does not establish measured brightness, colour accuracy, service life or image quality without model-specific evidence. The verified Neon+ V6 sheet names an Osram RGB-LED light source. Keep that statement with the V6 rather than assuming the same source for every Neon+ model. When comparing projectors, ask for the exact light-source description, measured brightness method and any stated maintenance or life information. Then view normal content in the intended room. A light-source label can help explain the product architecture, yet it cannot replace the native-resolution, throw, power and connection checks that determine practical fit. The V6 page keeps these specifications together, while the selection guide shows how to compare the complete evidence set rather than elevating one component label into a broad performance promise. Keep any claimed light-source life or colour performance in its own sourced model record.

HDMI is a digital interface used to carry video, audio and related data between compatible equipment. HDMI Licensing Administrator describes the technology and maintains public specification information. A listed HDMI port confirms a physical interface and version claim; it does not prove that every source, cable, adapter, resolution, audio route or protected service will behave as intended. The verified Neon+ V6 sheet lists HDMI 2.0. Test the exact laptop, phone adapter or media source, the intended cable length and representative content. If classroom continuity matters, keep a tested spare cable or fallback connection. Do not infer features from the newest HDMI specification when the product sheet names an earlier version. The useful evidence is the full working chain from source device through adapter and cable to projector input and audio destination. The selection and classroom setup guides provide practical places to record that chain and its fallback. Record the tested input resolution and audio destination beside the cable so a later setup can reproduce the working connection.

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless standard whose functionality depends on the supported radio and profiles in both devices. The Bluetooth SIG explains that Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy serve different communication needs. A version number alone does not prove that a projector supports a particular speaker, remote, data or audio profile. The verified Neon+ V6 sheet lists Bluetooth 5.0, but the intended pairing still needs to be tested with the actual device and use case. Record what pairs, what function is available, whether reconnection is reliable and what wired fallback exists. Avoid describing Bluetooth as universal wireless compatibility. The V6 port list also does not establish a built-in speaker or a specific audio result. Use the product page for the model statement and the selection guide to place the test within the complete source-to-audio chain. Keep the result dated because device software and network conditions may change. A dated pairing test is stronger evidence than the version number alone.

Dual-band Wi-Fi indicates support for both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands. The bands differ in coverage, congestion and throughput characteristics, while actual performance also depends on the access point, building, security configuration and connected devices. The verified Neon+ V6 sheet lists 2.4G and 5G Wi-Fi. That statement does not prove a particular casting method, app, protected stream or school-network compatibility. Test the V6 on the intended network with the actual source device and ordinary content, and record any sign-in, isolation or permission requirements. Keep a wired fallback where a failed wireless connection would interrupt a lesson or meeting. The term belongs to the exact model sheet; another Neon+ model needs separate confirmation. A useful comparison records the network, distance from the access point and repeatability rather than treating dual-band support as a promise of seamless wireless use. If the room uses managed school Wi-Fi, ask the administrator which device-isolation and sign-in rules affect casting before the demonstration.

TF card is an older name commonly used for the microSD memory-card format. The verified Neon+ V6 specification lists TF-card support up to 32 GB. That limit belongs to the supplied V6 record and should be confirmed if the current product documentation changes. Card support does not prove that every capacity, filesystem, file type, codec or folder structure will open. Prepare a non-critical card with representative files, confirm the required format and test playback before relying on it for a lesson or presentation. Keep an alternate source where continuity matters. The term identifies the removable-media form, not a promise about content compatibility or storage speed. When comparing models, record the slot type, supported capacity and tested formats separately. Use the V6 page for the stated capacity and the classroom setup guide for the wider source and fallback plan. Never move the V6's 32 GB figure to another model without its own specification.

A manufacturing defect is a fault attributed to manufacture under the applicable written warranty and assessment process. The term does not decide whether a particular symptom is covered, and this site cannot make that assessment. Neon+ states a 365-day local warranty from purchase for manufacturing defects, one-to-one replacement for product faults within warranty, customer-paid postal returns, and exclusions for negligence, mishandling and misuse. Ask Neon+ for the current full wording before purchase. If a fault occurs, preserve the invoice, exact model and serial details; record when the problem began, what appears on screen, the power state and which source, cable or adapter tests were tried. Contact support before altering the unit. This evidence helps the parties distinguish a product fault from a source or setup problem without implying an outcome. The ownership guide sets out the verified boundary and the questions that remain for the actual assessment. Keep the dated support response with the purchase file.
