Compatible Computer Display Formats - Epson PowerLite 821p User Manual

Compatible Computer Display Formats

You can connect the projector to a wide range of computers, including
PCs and notebooks, Apple Macintosh, Power Macintosh series
(including G3, G4 and G5 systems), PowerBook computers, many
iMac and iBook series systems, and high-end workstations such as the
® ™
Sun SPARCstation.
Although images are displayed at the projector's native resolution of
1024 768 pixels, Epson's patented SizeWise chip supports computer
display formats ranging from VGA through UXGA.
To project images output from a computer, the computer's external
monitor signal must be set at a refresh rate (vertical frequency) that's
compatible with the projector; see the following table for compatible
formats. For best results, the computer's resolution should be set to
match the projector's native resolution (1024 768). If this resolution
isn't available, select one of the other compatible formats:
Windows:
Right-click the desktop, select
and select a compatible resolution. (For a notebook displaying
through an external monitor port, you'll need to click the
button on the Settings tab, then adjust the resolution
Advanced
of the external monitor.)
Macintosh OS X:
From the Apple menu, select
. Make sure the
Displays
is selected, then click the
resolution.
Macintosh OS 9.x:
On the Apple menu, choose
or
Monitors Monitors and Sound
select a compatible resolution for your external monitor.
You may need to modify existing presentation files if you created them
for a different resolution. See your software documentation for details.
