Overview:

Image Express Utility Lite is software that projects a PC's display on a projector.
It allows the PC's display to be transferred to a projector using the network with high quality and at high speed.

  • USB Display
    • Computer's screen image can be projected via a USB cable, without connecting a computer cable (VGA).
    • Just connecting the computer and the projector over a USB cable will make the USB Display function available (Plug & Play) even without installing Image Express Utility Lite on the computer.
  • Image transmission
    • The screen of your computer can be sent to the projector via a wired or wireless network without a computer cable (VGA).
    • By using "EASY CONNECTION" function, the complicated network settings can be simplified and the computer will automatically connect to the projector.
  • Geometric Correction Tool (GCT)
    • The Geometric Correction Tool (GCT) function allows you to correct distortion of images projected even from an angle.
      [NOTE]
      • For the models M350X/M300X/M260X/M230X/M300W/M260W, Import, Export and Delete of the "Geometric Correction" setting cannot be done to the projector when the firmware version is "1.01" or lower.
      • If "Make text and other items larger or smaller" of your desktop setting is set to other than "Smaller(100%)", you can not use the geometric correction function.
  • Sound transmission
    • When connected to a projector supporting the sound transmission function, the sound is transmitted along with the images.
      * For the available models of this function, please refer to "Supported Projector" column.
  • Movie streaming
    • Movie files on your computer can be transferred to the projector via the network and played on the projector.
      * For the available models of this function, please refer to "Supported Projector" column.
  • Multiple connections
    • It enables that the multiple terminals connects to a projector.
    • The screen images of the multiple terminals can be displayed on the projector's screen, by the split screen mode or the full screen mode.
      * For the available models of this function, please refer to "Supported Projector" column.
