Lamp Maintenance Confirming the Lamp Usage Time Lamp The lamp in this projector operates for approximately 1,000 cumulative hours, depending on the usage environment. (As the usage environment can vary significantly, the projector lamp may not operate for 1,000 hours.) It is recommended that the lamp be replaced after approximately 900 cumulative hours of use or when you notice a significant deterioration of the picture and colour quality. The lamp usage time can be checked with the On-screen Display.

Guide to Effective Presentations Electronic presentations are one of the most effective tools presenters can use to persuade an audience. There are several ways to enhance your presentation and maximise your effectiveness. The following are guidelines to help you create and deliver a dynamic presentation. a. Types of Presentations Computer Presentations • To present basic information such as graphs, spreadsheets, documents and images, use word processing and spreadsheet applications.

Guide to Effective Presentations Good Bad Good c. Set-Up When giving a presentation, you need to set the stage both figuratively and literally for success. The way you set up a presentation room will have a great impact on the audience’s perception of you and your message. By manipulating the placement and use of the following tools, you will improve the impact of your presentation.
Guide to Effective Presentations d. Rehearsing & Delivery • The best time to rehearse is the day or evening before, not a couple of hours before, and the best place to rehearse is in the actual room. Rehearsing a speech in a small office is not the same as standing up in front of 100 people in a hotel ballroom or classroom. • Due to varying processor speeds of computers, practice your slide transitions for proper timing.
