The	Viewer	has	the	following	features.
•	 When	 a	commercially	 available	USB	memory	 that	stores	 image	files	is	inserted	 into	the	USB	 port	(Type	 A)	of	the	
projector,	the	 Viewer	allows	you	to	view	the	image	files	on	the	USB	memory.
	 Even	if	no	computer	is	available,	presentations	can	be	conducted	simply	with	the	projector. 	
•	 Supported	graphic	format	is	JPEG.
•	 The	Viewer	displays	 the	thumbnail	 screen	(JPEG	Exif	only)	 on	which	 you	can	 jump	 to	any	 specific	 image	you	wish	
to	project.
•	 There	 are	two	 ways	 of	playback	 for	slideshow: 	manual	 playback	 and	auto	 playback. 	The	 interval	 time	can	be	
changed	in	auto	playback.
•	 The	 order	of	displaying	 images	can	be	set	 by	name,	 date	or	size. 	Ascending	 or	descending	 order	can	be	se-
lected.
