Manage Multiple Projector from a Single PC with Wire-Free Ease
The projector is ideal for business presentations. Since it is IP addressable, like your office printer, it enables you to network multiple laptops, to a single projector for collaborative team presentations. And with a Wireless Manager's storyboard interface, its easy to select and transmit any file to any projector. Wirelessly transmit text documents, spread sheets, graphical presentations, and JPEG photos. All sent from multiple computers, wirelessly, without having to connect and reconnect cables from one PC to another.
A unique Capture Mode allows for instant transmission of anything on your PC, even Excel spread sheets, PowerPoint slides, and Microsoft Word documents. Just move the Camera icon to the highlighted area, window, or entire screen and send it to the projector. Its as simple as taking a photo.

Accepts Up to Two RGB Inputs and One RGB Output
Two RGB inputs eliminate the need to reconnect equipment when giving two different presentations back to back. The RGB2 terminal can also serve as a loop-through monitoring terminal for the RGB1 input. For instance, an instructor in a classroom can use this to give a presentation on a large screen while following the same images on a PC, eliminating the need to keep looking at the screen behind. Plus, images can still be monitored on the computer display while the projector is switched to standby mode.
