Freezing the Image (Freeze)
When the moving image on the screen is frozen, the image continues to 
project, so you can project a moving image one frame at a time like a still 
photo. Also, you can perform operations such as changing between files 
during presentations from a computer without projecting any images if the 
freeze function is activated beforehand.
Each time you press the button, Freeze turns on or off.

 Audio does not stop. 
 The image source continues to playback the moving 
images even while the screen is frozen, and so it is not 
possible to resume projection from the point where it was 
paused. 
 If the [Freeze] button is pressed while the configuration 
menu or a help screen is displayed, the menu or help 
screen being displayed is cleared. 
 Freeze still works while E-Zoom is being used. Remote control
