Auto Play Mode
If the "Auto Play" option is selected in "Viewer Options" of the
menu, any given slide will start to play automatically.
You can also specify Auto Play Interval between 5 and 300 sec-
onds.
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 SELECT button.
NOTE: Even if you switch the current Viewer source to another source, the current
slide is retained. When you return back to the Viewer, you will get the slide that has
been retained.
The PC card editing operation cannot be performed from the pro-
jector. Do so using the Dynamic Image Utility 2.0 software.
Viewing Digital Images
Digital images can be played with the Viewer if the following con-
ditions 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 directo-
ries are directories within two steps from the root directory, and search-
able images are images within the first 12 files in the directory. Only file
and slide switching are possible.
NOTE: The maximum number of images recognized as slides within one directory
is 128.
Storing Images Displayed on the Projector on the PC card
(Capture) [SHOWlite 6000gv only]
The Capture features allows you to capture an image from a
source that is currently being displayed. The image is saved as
JPEG in the PC card. When you select Capture from the menu,
you will get a tool bar. You can capture an image directly using
the tool bar when the menu is not displayed.
NOTE:
* Unless a PC card is inserted into the PC Card slot of the projector, the Capture
feature is not available.
* The "Card Error" display means that the free space of the PC card is insufficient
for saving images. Make more space available on the card by erasing unwanted
images with your PC. The number of images that can be captured depends on
the size of the PC card.
Preparations:
Insert the PC card into the card slot.
Insert the PC card so that the end with the insertion direction
arrow on the top goes in first.
* Press the eject button to eject the card.
1. Project the image you wish to store on the projector.
2. Select the "Capture" from the Tools menu.
3. A tool bar will appear.

The tool bar includes the following buttons:
Capture .... Captures an image and save it as a JPEG file on a
PC card.
Freeze ...... Freezes and unfreezes images.

NOTE:
You can compress a captured file (JPEG) using the Capture Options in the Setup
dialog. See page 8-15.
Captured images with higher resolution than the projector's native resolution can-
not be displayed correctly.
• File size of the captured image varies depending on the resolution of an input
signal.
• An hourglass indicating that an image is being captured appears on the projector's
display. Do not eject the PC card or turn off the projector's power while this icon
is displayed. Doing so will damage the PC card data. If the PC card data is dam-
aged, use a computer to repair the data.
5. Using the Viewer
CAUTION:
Make sure that the PC card is removed during Standby
mode (NOT Idle mode) or with the main power off.
Failure to do so may cause damage to the data on your PC card,
or may cause the projector to malfunction.
Should a malfunction occur, turn off the main power and turn it
back on.
