Other Features

The HDMI terminal allows you to present high-definition movies and animations for greater impact from DVD, Blu-ray players and other HDMI-equipped devices. The USB terminal lets you project from a USB memory device and eliminates the need to connect to a PC. A 10/100Base-T Ethernet interface allows connection to a local area network (LAN) for remote setup, monitoring and presentations from wired or wirelessly-connected PCs. The projector is also wireless LAN IEEE 802.11 b/g compliant for wireless network connectivity. Use the Audio In terminal to receive audio input signals from external sources including DVD players when a separate channel for sound is required. With the Audio Out terminal, you can connect external speakers for a stereo signal and to increase volume. The S-Video terminal allows you to project images from DVDs, camcorders, VCRs and other devices that use S-Video signals. The Computer 1 In terminal acts as the primary connection for laptop use via a 15-pin VGA interface for RGB signal input. The Computer 2 In terminal establishes a second computer or RGB video device connection when multiple presenters connect to a laptop or when presentations are stored on different computers. The terminal also acts as a Monitor Out connection for simultaneous presentation to an audience and on the presenter's computer. The Computer 2/Monitor Out Switch controls the function of the Computer 2 In terminal. Push the switch to the left to allow the Computer 2 In terminal to function as a second video input source or push to the right to monitor the presentation. A single-pin RCA composite video terminal provides connection for older VCR and camcorder devices. Use the control terminal to control meeting room environments such as automatic lighting, raising or lowering screens, and window shade control when connecting the projector to external systems. The built-in 1W speaker eliminates the need for external equipment. Volume is adjustable with the remote control or control panel selection keys. Attach a safety cable in the anti-theft lock slot to prevent theft or movement of the projector.
