Using Multi-Screen Display

Multi-screen display mode allows you to project different images from multiple projectors that are connected to a single computer.

With Windows, multiple virtual displaygdrivers can be set in the computer, and each image can be projected by the projector. This function is not

available with Windows Vista or Windows 7 due to restrictions in the specifications.

For Macintosh, an external monitor must be connec ted to the computer to enable the function. While the following explanation refers to virtual display,

for Macintosh the operation relates to the screens displayed on the physically connected monitor.
