Using Your Tablet-PC With a Projector

NOTE:

When the Tablet-PC display has a portrait orientation and you are using

clone mode, the projector displays an image that is rotated sideways and not

viewable. To correct the displayed image, change the Tablet-PC display to

landscape orientation using the Screen Rotate button or use the projector’s menu

options or other features to rotate the displayed image. See "Using Tablet Buttons"

on page 62 for more information on the Screen Rotate button.

Display Modes

The Tablet-PC includes the clone and extended desktop modes for adjusting

the image displayed by a projector.

Clone Mode (Mirrored)

The clone mode enables the projector to display the exact image that is on

the Tablet-PC display. In clone mode, the projector displays mouse cursor

movement and handwriting or drawing with the digitizer pen. Clone mode is

useful when using the mouse cursor as a pointing device or when you want

the projector to display user activity that is occurring on the Tablet

-

PC.

NOTE:

When you initially connect the Tablet-PC to a projector, the Microsoft

Windows operating system asks you to specify default display settings. To enable

clone mode, select Duplicate my desktop on all displays (mirrored). To send the

Tablet-PC display to the projector, use the <Fn><F8> key combination. You can

change the default display settings at a later time.

Considerations for Using Portrait or Landscape Orientation in Clone Mode

Because clone mode displays the exact image from the Tablet-PC, using the

landscape or portrait orientation affects the image displayed by the projector.
Landscape is the typical orientation in clone mode and is displayed normally

by the projector.
When the Tablet-PC display is in tablet position and you are using a portrait

orientation in clone mode, the projector displays an image that is rotated

sideways and not viewable. To correct the projected image you can:

• Use the Screen Rotate button to change the Tablet-PC display to

landscape orientation. See "Using Tablet Buttons" on page 62 for more

information on the Screen Rotate button.

• Use the projector’s menu options or other features to rotate the projected

image.
