The projector automatically detects signals being input from connected
equipment, and the image being input from the equipment is projected.
• Changing directly to the target image
You can use the Remote Control buttons to change to the target input
port.
Automatically Detect Input Signal and Change the Projected Image (Source Search)
You can project the target image quickly as input ports with no image
signal being input are ignored when you change by pressing the [Source

Freezing the Image (Freeze)
When Freeze is activated on moving images, the frozen image continues to
project on the screen, so you can project a moving image one frame at a
time like a still photo. Also, you can perform operations such as changing
between files during presentations from a computer without projecting any
images if the Freeze function is activated beforehand.
q
• Audio does not stop.
• The image source continues to play back the moving images even
while the screen is frozen, and so it is not possible to resume
projection from the point where it was paused.
• If the [Freeze] button is pressed while the Configuration Menu or a
Help screen is displayed, the menu or Help screen being displayed is
cleared.
• Freeze still works while E-Zoom is being used.
