Displaying PtG presentations

Follow these steps to show a slideshow presentation using Presentation-to-Go (PtG) presentation. This will preserve most PowerPoint embedded videos, transition effects, and animations. (Note: these instructions apply to PowerPoint 2007 in Windows; for other presentation programs refer to the presentation program's instructions or help file for the steps needed to save a presentation as separate JPEG files.)

To convert a PowerPoint presentation to a PtG presentation:

1Download and install the PtG Converter software onto your computer (avail- able on www.infocus.com/support).

2Close all open computer applications.

3Open the PtG Converter Lite program and click the Convert button.

4Navigate to the desired PowerPoint presentation and click OK to begin conver- sion.

5When the conversion is complete, a “Conversion Complete” message will dis- play. Click OK.

To display the PtG presentation:

1Connect a USB flash drive to your computer and copy PtG presentation from your computer to the USB flash drive.

2Turn on your projector if needed.

3Remove the USB flash drive from your computer and plug it into the USB A connector on the rear of the projector.

4The projector will display the LitePort menu.

5Click PtG and navigate to the desired presentation using the arrow buttons on the projector keypad or remote.

6Click Select to display the desired presentation.

7Use the arrow buttons to navigate through the presentation. To stop displaying the presentation: click the Menu button.

Troubleshooting LitePort

If images load slowly: Make sure you are using a newer USB 2.0- compatible (high speed) USB flash drive. Larger image file sizes may also slow down the player; to reduce file size, use an image editing 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.

Using the Source button, make sure you have the LitePort source selected and make sure your USB flash drive is correctly and completely plugged in to the projectors LitePort connector.

If nothing happens when you connect your USB flash drive, and you cannot select the LitePort input source as described above: Check the format of your USB storage device. LitePort only supports USB storage devices formatted as FAT32. Devices formatted as NTFS, and non-storage devices (such as cameras) are not supported.
