About a “Memory 
Stick”
What is “Memory Stick”?
“Memory Stick” is a new compact, portable and 
versatile IC (Integrated Circuit) recording medium 
with a data capacity that exceeds a floppy disk. 
“Memory Stick” is specially designed for exchanging 
and sharing digital data among “Memory Stick” 
compatible products. Because it is removable, 
“Memory Stick” can also be used for external data 
storage.
“Memory Stick” is available in two sizes: standard 
size and compact “Memory Stick Duo” size. Once 
attached to a Memory Stick Duo adapter, “Memory 
Stick Duo” turns to the same size as standard 
“Memory Stick” and thus can be used with products 
compliant with standard “Memory Stick.”
Types of “Memory Stick”
“Memory Stick” is available in the following three 
types to meet various requirements in functions.  
“Memory Stick”
Stores any type of data except copyright-protected 
data that requires the MagicGate copyright 
protection technology.  
 “MagicGate Memory Stick”
Equipped with the MagicGate copyright protection 
technology.
“Memory Stick-ROM”
Stores pre-recorded, read-only data. You cannot 
record on “Memory Stick-ROM” or erase the pre-
recorded data.
Available types of “Memory Stick” for 
the projector
You can use various types of  “Memory Stick” –  
“Memory Stick,” “MagicGate Memory Stick” and 
“Memory Stick-ROM”— with your projector. 
However, because your projector does not support the 
MagicGate standards, data recorded with your 
projector is not subject to MagicGate copyright 
protection.
Notes on “Memory Stick Duo”
 To use “Memory Stick Duo” with your projector, 
attach it to the Memory Stick Duo adapter before 
inserting it into your projector.
 Be sure to attach “Memory Stick Duo” to the 
adapter with the correct orientation. 
 Be sure to insert the Memory Stick Duo adapter 
with the correct orientation. Otherwise, the 
projector may be damaged.
 Do not insert the Memory Stick Duo adapter 
without “Memory Stick Duo” attached. Doing so 
may result in malfunction of the projector.
What is MagicGate ?
MagicGate is copyright protection technology that 
uses encryption technology. 
This section describes how to view the 
picture files that are recorded by a digital 
camera and stored in a “Memory Stick.”  
You can make a slide show using the 
pictures, display an index screen of the 
pictures, etc. 
						

							GB 32About a “Memory Stick”
Using a “Memory 
Stick”
Format that can be displayed with this 
projector
The projector can display the picture files recorded by 
a digital camera and recorded on a “Memory Stick” in 
the following format:
 Image files (DCF-compatible) compressed in the 
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) format 
(extension: .jpg)
 MPEG1 format picture files recorded by Sony 
products; MPEG MOVIE, MPEG MOVIE AD, 
MPEG MOVIE EX, MPEG MOVIE HQ, MPEG 
MOVIE HQX, MPEG MOVIE CV, VAIO Giga 
pocket (equivalent to video CD).
Before using a “Memory Stick”
 When you set the “Memory Stick” erasure 
prevention switch to “LOCK,” data cannot be 
recorded, edited, or erased.
 Use a sharp object, such as a ballpoint pen, to move 
the “Memory Stick Duo” erasure prevention switch.
 Data may be damaged if:
- You remove the “Memory Stick” or turn off the 
unit while it is reading or writing data.
- You use the “Memory Stick” in a location subject 
to the effects of static electricity or electric noise.
 We recommend that you make a backup copy of 
important data that you record on the “Memory 
Stick.”
Notes
 Do not attach anything other than the supplied label to the 
“Memory Stick” labeling position. 
 Attach the label so that it does not stick out beyond the labeling 
position.
 Do not write forcefully on the “Memory Stick Duo” memo 
area.
 Carry and store the “Memory Stick” in its case.
 Do not touch the connector of the “Memory Stick” with 
anything, including your finger or metallic objects.
 Do not strike, bend, or drop the “Memory Stick.”
 Do not disassemble or modify the “Memory Stick.”
 Do not allow the “Memory Stick” to get wet.
 Do not use or store the “Memory Stick” in a location that is:
- Extremely hot, such as in a car parked in the sun
- Under direct sunlight
- Very humid or subject to corrosive substances
About formatting “Memory Stick”
When “Memory Sticks” are shipped from the factory, 
they are already formatted to a special standard. When 
you format “Memory Stick,” we recommend 
formatting them on this projector.
Caution when formatting “Memory Stick” on 
a personal computer
Pay attention to the following points when formatting 
“Memory Stick” on a personal computer. Operation 
of “Memory Stick” formatted on a personal computer 
is not guaranteed on this projector. To use a “Memory 
Stick” that has been formatted on a personal 
computer, the “Memory Stick” must be reformatted 
on this projector. If it is not reformatted, all data 
stored on the “Memory Stick” will be lost. 
Access Indicator
If the access indicator is turned on or is flashing, data 
is being read from or written to the “Memory Stick.” 
At this time, do not shake the computer or projector or 
subject them to shock. Do not turn off the power of the 
computer and projector or remove the “Memory 
Stick.” This may damage the data.
Precautions
 To prevent data loss, make backups of data 
frequently. In no event will Sony be liable for any 
loss of data.
 Unauthorized recording may be contrary to the 
provisions of copyright law.
 The “Memory Stick” application software may be 
modified or changed by Sony without prior notice.
