Problems Using an SD Card
Certain images don't appear
If you use your computer to copy images to the document camera's internal
memory or an SD card, you need to make sure their format is correct:
•
Images must be DCF-compliant JPEG files to be displayed, such as
from a digital camera. Avoid editing your images, as this may change
their format and prevent them from being displayed.
•
Images must be named using the format ABCD1234.JPG, where ABCD
is any combination of upper- or lowercase letters and 1234 is any
combination of numbers. For example: Pict0001, Pict0002, etc.
•
Images must be placed in a folder named DCIM\123ABCDE, where 123
is any combination of numbers and ABCDE is any combination of
upper- or lowercase letters. If this folder structure doesn't exist, first
create a folder named DCIM, then create a folder within it with the
desired name (for example, 100EPSON).
Image files don't have the correct time stamp
The document camera does not have a built-in clock. Therefore, when you
view captured image files from your computer, they won't show the actual
time they were created.
Problems Connecting a Laptop
