Welcome
Getting the Most from Your Projector
Your EPSON PowerLite projector is a highly versatile presentation
tool. You can connect it to one or two computer sources and up to
three video sources and easily switch between them. You can also
include sound for up to three of the sources.
Depending on your presentation, you can take advantage of any or all
of these options:
Connecting to a laptop or other computer
If you want to connect to a PC laptop or Macintosh PowerBook
or iBook, see page 12. To connect to a desktop computer, a
workstation, a computer that outputs video in Digital Visual
Interface (DVI) format, or more than one computer, see
Appendix A.
Connecting to video sources
You can connect a DVD player, VCR, camcorder, laser disc
player, digital camera, or any other video source to your projector.
You can connect up to three video sources at the same time (with
or without a computer) and easily switch between them.
See page 15 for instructions.
Using the remote control
The remote control lets you switch from one computer or video
source to another, with access to picture-in-picture, pointer,
zoom, and many other projector features. For details, see
Chapter 3.
By connecting an additional cable, you can also use the remote
control as a wireless mouse. This lets you click through
slideshow-style presentations (such as PowerPoint
®
) from up to
30 feet away. For more information, see page 41.
Including sound in your presentation
If your presentation includes sound, you can connect the USB
cable or an optional audio cable to use the projectors built-in
speakers. For details, see page 14 (for laptops) or Appendix A (for
other systems).
note
You can connect a maximum
of four sources at the same
time.
