Using the LitePort player

LitePort allows you to display any JPEG image automatically, without a computer connected. Use your own JPEGs from your digital camera, or con- vert your files, such as PowerPoint or Word files, into JPEGs using LitePort Utility software (included on the CD). LitePort Utility allows you to easily generate the highest quality JPEG images possible. (LitePort player is opti- mized to display images at 960x720 resolution, so for best results, create JPEGs at this resolution). Then transfer the JPEG images from your com- puter to the projector using a USB mass storage device and your images are ready to be displayed. You can use the remote control to select which JPEGs to view or you can set up the LitePort player using the LitePort onscreen menu to select display preferences and automatically display and advance your JPEGs. See page 36.

When active, the player can be in one of three modes:

Folder View mode, which shows a thumbnail image representing each folder that contains a valid JPEG. The thumbnail for that folder is the first JPEG alphabetically in that folder. Folders are sorted alphabetically based on the name of the actual directory with no regard to the file sys- tem path to the folder.

File View mode, which shows a thumbnail of the valid JPEGs in that folder.

Full Screen mode, which shows the first JPEG in the selected folder.

The remote and keypad buttons interact with the player differently in each mode. When you insert a USB device in the LitePort connector, the player enters Full Screen mode if Auto Play is checked (the default setting) and the AutoPlay folder contains a JPEG or it enters Folder View if Auto Play is not checked. The AutoPlay folder is automatically created by LitePort Utility software. See its online help for details.

In Folder View mode, pressing the Next button (or the Down arrow) places the white selection box around the next folder, pressing the Previous button (or the Up arrow) places the selection box around the previous folder, press- ing Select selects the current folder and enters File View mode. Nine folder thumbnails can be displayed on the screen at a time. If your USB drive con- tains more than 9 folders, you can navigate to them by navigating to the last

thumbnail on the screen and pressing Next or Down arrow. You are looped back to Folder 1 when you reach the end of the folder list.

Eight file thumbnails can be displayed on the screen at a time. If your folder contains more than 8 files, you can navigate to them by navigating to the last thumbnail on the screen and pressing Next. You are looped back to File 1 when you reach the end of the file list.

LP 600 specifications

The InFocus LP 600 is a versatile, portable projector designed to meet the demands of both professional presentations and casual viewing. Launched in the early 2000s, this model marked a significant advancement in projector technology, compactness, and image quality, catering well to various environments including corporate settings, classrooms, and home theaters.

One of the main features of the LP 600 is its impressive brightness, boasting a lumen output that facilitates clear and vibrant displays even in rooms with ambient light. This makes it an ideal choice for conference rooms or classrooms where control over lighting might be limited. The projector's resolution supports SVGA (800x600), which, while standard at the time, delivers sharp images and graphics essential for presentations.

The LP 600 employs LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) technology, which enhances color saturation and produces more accurate colors compared to some older DLP (Digital Light Processing) models. This technology enables the projection of high-quality images, making it suitable for multimedia presentations that include text, images, and video content.

Portability is another hallmark of the InFocus LP 600. Weighing in at just a few kilograms, it can easily be transported between different locations, from the office to off-site meetings or educational events. Its compact size does not compromise on functionality, as the projector includes a variety of input options, including VGA and composite video, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices.

In terms of user-friendliness, the LP 600 features intuitive controls and settings that make setup straightforward, allowing users to adjust focus, zoom, and aspect ratios with ease. The projector also incorporates a built-in speaker, which, while not the most powerful, adds convenience for smaller presentations where an external sound source might not be necessary.

Durability and reliability are key characteristics of the InFocus LP 600, built with quality materials designed to withstand frequent use. Additionally, it offers decent lamp life, reducing the frequency of replacements which can be a significant cost in long-term usage.

Overall, the InFocus LP 600 stands out as a solid option for anyone seeking a reliable, portable projector that combines quality performance with ease of use, making it a valued tool in any presenter’s toolkit. Whether for business or education, its balance of features and technologies ensures effective communication and engagement through visual representation.
