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

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):
1Connect the USB flash drive to your computer.
2Open your PowerPoint document.
3This step is optional but improves image quality: Click the Design tab
near the top of the PowerPoint document window, then click Page Setup.
Click the Slides sized for drop-down menu and select Custom. Change
both Width and Height to double their previous values, then click OK.
4Click the Office button in the upper left corner of the PowerPoint
document window.
5Point to Save As, then click Other Formats.
6In the Save As dialog box, click the Save as type drop-down menu. Scroll
through the menu and select JPEG File Interchange Format.
7Make 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).
8Click 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.
9Remove the USB flash drive from your computer and plug it into the
projector's LitePort 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: PowerPoint embedded videos, transition effects, and animations are
not included when saving as JPEG. However, you can select a LitePort
slideshow transition effect by changing the Effect in the LitePort menu.
45
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.
• If you see a blank screen, or a logo, or the wrong input source
(computer, video, etc.) instead of your images: Keep pressing the
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).
• 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.
If images saved by PowerPoint are low quality: Make sure to do step 3
when following the steps in the Displaying PowerPoint Slides section
above.

Maintenance
Cleaning the lens
1Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cloth.
• Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner, and don’t apply the
cleaner directly to the lens. Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh
chemicals might scratch the lens.
2Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the lens in a circular motion.
WARNINGS:
• Turn the projector off and unplug power cord before cleaning any
part of the projector.
• Do not open any cover on the projector, except the lamp cover.
• Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening and
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage and other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
47
Replacing the projection lamp
The lamp hours used timer in the Projector Info menu counts the number of
hours the lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the lamp life expires,
the message “Change lamp” appears on the screen at startup.
•NOTE: You can order new lamps from www.infocus.com (in select
areas), your retailer or your dealer. Only genuine InFocus lamps are
tested for use in this projector. InFocus is not liable for the
performance, safety or certification of any other lamps. The use of other
lamps violates the projector warranty and voids all certification marks
on this projector.
WARNINGS:
• To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before
you replace the lamp.
• Only genuine InFocus lamps are tested with this projector. Use of other
lamps may cause electrical shock and fire.
• Unplug the power cord before replacing the lamp.
• Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury.
• Do not touch the glass lamp screen. Fingerprints can obscure projection
sharpness.
• Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely
event that the lamp ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated.
The lamp module is designed to contain most of these fragments, but
use caution when removing it. Before replacing a ruptured lamp, clean
the lamp compartment and dispose of cleaning materials. Wash hands
after lamp replacement. If replacing the lamp while the projector is
ceiling-mounted, wear protective eyewear.
• Hg - Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with local disposal
laws. See www.lamprecycle.org.
