Images transmitted to the projector in Live Mode can be replayed from the projector side (*3).
You can also send images to the projector from the PC in advance (*4).
Regardless of the method chosen, you can select the image you wish to display or even select
multiple images for consecutive playback by viewing the corresponding thumbnail images
stored on the projector side (*5).

3. PC-less Presentation Mode (*6)
In order to use PC-less Presentation Mode, you need to store your presentation data (*7) into a
memory card (*8). Next, insert the memory card into the projector and you are all ready to make
a presentation with just the projector. No need for a PC! The presentation is played just as
described in Playback Mode.

NOTE
4. Remote Control Mode
The
EP8790NET
incorporates the latest LAN functions, enabling you to not only make presentations,
but also control the projector using a control panel that you interface to using your Web
browser. Remote control functions available include, turning the projector's power on and off,
and selecting between image sources.
This feature also provides you with such information as when the projector's lamp needs to be
replaced. Even if the projector is located in an office room away from your current location, you
can easily operate it via remote control.
If you opt not to use the wireless LAN card, you can still directly connect your computer
using a LAN cable. Be sure to use a cross cable when directly connecting to just one PC. Use
a straight cable for connecting to the closest hub of your company LAN.
