Appendix C. Using video mirroring
This section contains information on video mirroring.
Using video mirroring with a PowerBook computer
When you turn on video mirroring (called SimulScan in newer PowerBook
computers), the projector displays the same information that appears on a
PowerBook built-in screen. When video mirroring is off, the projector operates
like a separate display.
To turn on video mirroring for the first time:
1. Open the Monitors control panel; click Monitor 2.
2. Set the number of colors that you want.
3. Open the Control Strip, and then click the monitor icon.
4. Select Turn Video Mirroring On.
Now you can turn video mirroring on and off from the Control Strip without
having to open the monitor control panel again. When using video mirroring
and high-color graphics such as slide shows, the projected image occasionally
might turn black and white. If this happens, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off video mirroring.
2. Open the monitor control panel.
3. Move the white menu bar to Monitor 2 to set the projector as the primary
monitor.
4. Restart the PowerBook computer.
Using Simulscan
Some newer PowerBook computers display images on an external monitor or
projector differently than previous ones. When using SimulScan, the projector
displays the same information that appears on your PowerBook computer. To
select SimulScan:
1. Open the Control Panel, and then double-click Monitors and Sound.
2. In the Resolution list, select the SimulScan mode, and then click OK.
3. If this changes your display settings, a window opens. Click OK to confirm
the change.
