4. Using the Viewer
❶
What you can do with the Viewer
The Viewer feature allows you to view slides or movie files stored on a USB memory on the projector, or a shared
folder in a computer connected to the network.
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.
• Movie file with audio can be played back.
• A Microsoft PowerPoint file or Adobe PDF file can be simply projected on the screen without connecting a com-
puter.
• Image and movie files stored in a shared folder in a computer connected to a network can be projected.
The computer with “Media Sharing” of Windows Media Player 11 turned on can be used as a media server.
