INTRODUCTION
The In Focus Systems LitePro® 610 and 620 multimedia projectors combine powerful and sophisticated features with easy-touse, intuitive controls. Built-in multimedia features include highfidelity stere o audio by JBL™, a palette of 16.7 million colors and
Digital Light Processing™ (DLP) technology. The 600 series projectors are ideal for high-performance business, train ing and
imaging applications that demand exceptional color quality. The
610 has VGA graphics, the 620 has SVGA graphics. The user
interfaces of the two products are identical; information in this
User’s Guide applies to both products.
Image Resolution
LitePro 610
The VGA resolution of the projected image of the 610 is 640x480.
The projector displays computer images that are 640x480 or
lower just as they appear on your computer’s monitor. Screen
resolutions between 640x480 and 800x600 are compressed to
640x480. The projector cannot compres s screen resolutions above
800x600. If your computer’s screen resolution is higher than
800x600, reset it to a lower resolution before you connect the projector.

resolutions between 800x600 and 1024x768 are compressed to
800x600. The projector cannot compres s screen resolutions above
1024x768. If your computer’s screen resolution is higher than
1024x768, reset it to a lower resolution before you connect the
projector.
NOTE: The 620 automatically
expands 640x480 images to
800x600. You can display these
images at 640x480 by turning off
