Introduction
iP Viewer is a presentation support application exclusively for use with the iP series of Intelligent Projectors.
These instructions provide information on the functions and operations related to using iP Viewer to con-
duct presentations.
For instructions on connecting the projector to a computer and operating the projector, see the projector’s
operating instructions.
iP Viewer is of the plug-and-play type; when the projector and computer are connected with a USB cable,
the program stored in the projector is automatically detected and launched, and the necessary settings for
using it are made automatically. This eliminates bothersome procedures for installing and setting up the
program, and the computer to which the projector is connected can be used immediately and at any time.
(The USB driver must be installed the first time the projector and computer are connected.)
“iP Viewer” in these instructions refers to the program stored in the projector.
Cautions on Using iP Viewer
Do not move or delete the files on the projector's removable disc *. Doing so will make it
impossible to launch the program.
* The computer identifies the visual camera’s built-in memory as a large capacity removable USB device.
For cautions concerning the computer, refer to the computer’s operating instructions and
help file.
When disconnecting the USB cable, to avoid damaging the projector's internal memory, be
sure to follow the procedure described in these operating instructions (page 9).
NOTICE
The removable device refers to the removable data storage device. The driver is the pro
gram that drives (reads and writes on) this device.
