Using LitePort
LitePort displays a slide show of JPEG images stored on a USB flash drive connected to the projector. This feature is eliminates the need for a computer source and can be integrated with common wall plates and conference room input/output panels.
Image File Types
LitePort displays image files in JPEG format only (file extensions .JPEG and .JPG). Other file types including PDF, BMP, TIFF, PNG, GIF, etc. are ignored.
Viewing a Slide Show
To view your pictures as a slide show, follow these steps:
1 Connect a USB flash drive to your computer and copy JPEG files from
your computer to the USB flash drive.
2 Turn on your projector if needed.
3 Remove the USB flash drive from your computer and plug it into the
LitePort connector on the rear of the projector.
4 The projector will start a slide show of the images found (if you see
image thumbnails instead, see To Start the Slide Show section below).
5 To go to the next image in the slide show, press the Down or Right
arrow button on the projector keypad or remote. To go to the previous image, press the Up or Left arrow button.
Controlling LitePort
When you plug a USB flash drive into the projector's LitePort connector, the projector will scan the drive and then either start a slide show or show image thumbnails.
To stop the slide show and view thumbnails: Press slide show. In Thumbnails view, the name of the current folder, the current image number, and the total number of images in that folder are shown at the bottom of the screen. While viewing thumbnails, press the arrow

Displaying PowerPoint Slides
Follow the steps below to display PowerPoint slides using LitePort (these instructions apply to PowerPoint 2007 in Windows; for other presentation programs refer to the program's instructions or help file for the steps needed to save a presentation as separate JPEG files):
1 Connect the USB flash drive to your computer.
Click the Slides sized for drop-down menu and select Custom. Change both Width and Height to double their previous values, then click OK.
4 Click the Office button in the upper left corner of the PowerPoint
document window.
5 Point to Save As, then click Other Formats.
6 In the Save As dialog box, click the Save as type drop-down menu. Scroll
through the menu and select JPEG File Interchange Format.
7 Make sure the contents of your USB flash drive are visible in the Save As
dialog box before you continue - to view your USB flash drive in the Save As dialog box, first click My Computer, then double-click the USB flash drive's icon (make sure you do both of these in the Save As dialog box, not on your computer's desktop).
8 Click Save. PowerPoint will ask if you want to export every slide or only
the current slide; click Every Slide. PowerPoint will save each slide in your presentation as a separate JPEG file. These files are saved in a new folder that has the same name as the original document.
9 Remove the USB flash drive from your computer and plug it into the
projector's Li
tePort connector.
10 On the projector, navigate to the folder created in step 8 and then start
the slide show (for instructions on navigating and controlling the slide show, see the Controlling LitePort section above).
NOTE: P not included when saving as JPEG. However, you can select a LitePort slideshow transition effect by changing the Effect in the LitePort menu.

Troubleshooting LitePort
If images load slowly: Make sure you are using a newer USB 2.0­compatible (high speed) USB flash drive. Larger image file sizes may
lso slow down the player; to reduce file size, use an image editing
a program on your computer to resize images smaller; for the best balance between image quality and speed, resize images to be 1024 pixels wide.
If no images are found, or some images are not shown, or you only see folder thumbnails but no images: Make sure that images are JPEG file type (file extensions .JPEG and .JPG); other file types are not supported and will be ignored.
If you see a blank screen, or a logo, or the wrong input source (comput Source button on the keypad or remote until the LitePort message is displayed (if you still don't see any images, make sure the USB flash drive is correctly and completely plugged into the projector's LitePort connector).
