•An hourglass indicating that an image is being captured appears on the
projectors display. Do not eject the PC card or turn off the projectors power
while this icon is displayed. Doing so will damage the PC card data. If the PC
card data is damaged, use a computer to repair the data.
Switching to Slides Directly from Other Input Modes
With this function it is possible to switch directly to a slide when the
picture of a VCR or computer is being projected.
Example: When conducting presentations using a combination of slides
and moving pictures from a VCR, etc., it is possible to switch from a
Viewer slide to the video picture then back to the Viewer slide simply by
using the Viewer button.
NOTE: Even if you switch the current Viewer source to another source, the cur-
rent slide is retained. When you return back to the Viewer, you will get the slide
that has been retained.
Viewing Digital Images
Digital images can be played with the Viewer if the following conditions
are met:
•If the image can be stored on an MS-DOS format PC card.
•If the image can be stored in a format supported by the Viewer. With
the Viewer, images on the card are searched for in directories and
images in JPEG or BMP format are recognized as slides. Searchable
directories are directories within two steps from the root directory,
and searchable images are images within the first 12 files in the di-
rectory. Only file and slide switching are possible.
NOTE: The maximum number of images recognized as slides within one direc-tory is 128.
