An Introduction to the Features
Saving Images
Captured images can be saved as a file to a computer disk.
Images can be saved to disk in any of the following three ways. Please
note that files can only be saved and opened with the computer and not
with the remote control or DZ-3600U control panel.
Saving Images as Presentation Software Files
This method allows you to save all of the currently captured images to disk
at once. Files saved with this method can be opened again by the
Presentation Software program. Use this method if you wish to reuse files for
future presentations (for presenting the same images at a different location,
for example). The limitation of this method is that the files cannot be
opened by other application programs, such as graphics programs.
•••␣ Note •••
• The files saved with this method are assigned the “.PIH” file extension.
• The default save location (the folder automatically displayed in the save
window) is the [Presentation Histories] folder within the [My Documents]
folder.
Saving Just the Displayed Image
This method allows you to save only the current image in the display to
disk. You can select between the JPEG (.JPG) and bitmap (.BMP) file
formats. This method can only be selected in still mode.
•••␣ Note •••
• There are many image file formats currently in use. Presentation Software
can save in two of the most popular, the JPEG and bitmap formats. The JPEG
format compresses the image data, allowing the image to be saved in an
extremely small file. You are recommended to use this format for most
purposes.
• The default save location (the folder automatically displayed in the save
window) is the [Presentation Images] folder within the [My Documents]
folder.
Saving All Images and the HTML Index
This method creates a new folder, saves all the current captured images
in it and adds an HTML index for browsing the images. The files are saved
in the JPEG (.JPG) format.

• The default save location (the folder automatically displayed in the save
window) is the [Presentation Histories] folder within the [My Documents]
folder.
