z

How to project the contents of files stored on a memory device with the Data Projector’s Viewer 
function.

Viewer is one of the Data Projector’s built-in applications. It lets you play back and project the 
contents of files from a memory device connected to the Data Projector.

EZ-Converter FA is computer software for converting PowerPoint files to ECA or PtG files that can be 
played back and projected by the Data Projector. EZ-Converter FA supports conversion of file created 
with Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003, 2007 and 2010. Save for certain exceptions (described below), 
playback and projection of an ECA file or PtG file normally should be able to reproduce transitions, 
animations, and other special effects of the original PowerPoint file.

z

Conversion of OLE objects (movies, audio, etc.) and VBA objects in a PowerPoint file is not 
supported.

z

Conversion of timer and repeat operations in a PowerPoint file animation is not supported.

z

An animation in a PowerPoint file is converted up to the time specified by “Max Animation Display 
Time” (page 16), and everything after that is cut. When the point up to which the animation was 
converted is reached during playback of the converted file, playback will pause, and you will have to 
press the [ENTER] key to advance to the next step.

z

The source PowerPoint file plays when you convert a file with EZ-Converter FA. If there is no change 
on the screen for about three consecutive seconds during this playback, say between Points A and 
B, for example, the effect at Point B in the original file is ignored and not converted. When Point B is 
reached during playback of the converted file, playback will pause, and you will have to press the 
[ENTER] key to advance to the next step.

Important!

In order to perform the procedures in this section, you will first need to install the EZ-Converter 
FA software from the CD-ROM that comes with the Data Projector onto your computer. For 
more information, see “Installing the Software” (page 8).
