Glossary 246 This section briefly explains the difficult terms that are not explained in the text of this guide. For details, refer to other commercially available publications. AMX Device Discovery AMX Device Discovery is a technology developed by AMX to facilitate AMX control systems for easy operation of the target equipment. Epson have implemented this protocol technology, and have provided a setting to enable the protocol function (ON). See the AMX Web site for more details. URL: http://www.amx.
Glossary 247 IP Address A number to identify a computer connected to a network. Progressive Projects information to create one screen at a time, displaying the image for one frame. Even though the number of scan lines is the same, the amount of flicker in images decreases because the volume of information has doubled compared with an interlace system. Refresh Rate The light-emitting element of a display maintains the same luminosity and color for an extremely short time.
