Chapter 3 Cyclops F/X Your projector comes with Cyclops F/X — software effects that you can use to make your presentations more interesting and effective. For example, you can use the Spotlight to call attention to specific areas on the image, use the Zoom or Magnify effects to focus on important information in the image, or use See-it/Show-it to preview images on your computer without distracting your audience.
INSTALLING CYCLOPS F/X Follow these steps to install the Cyclops F/X software: 1 Insert the disk labeled Proxima Cyclops F/X into your computer’s floppy drive. 2 Do one of the following: • In Windows 95, choose Start, Run, then type a:\setup.exe (or the drive letter for your floppy drive). • In Windows 3.x, choose File, Run, then type a:\setup.exe (or the drive letter for your floppy drive).
The main screen of the F/X program appears: Figure 3-2 Cyclops F/X special effects On the left side of this window is a list of the special effects. The Assignments area in the middle of the window provides options that allow you to customize your remote and software. NOTE: If you open a menu, or if you're using the LightBoard tool, Cyclops F/X will be suspended. ASSIGNMENTS AREA The Assignments area displays the custom remote keys and their current assignments.
The Assignments area also contains five buttons: BUTTON FUNCTION Setup Remote Lets you switch the assignments display between the included Cyclops remote control and the optional Cyclops wand or laser pointer. Put Away Minimizes the F/X screen. Edit Effect Allows you to assign a shortcut key to the effect. You can also use this option to customize an effect. Projector Setting Allows you to adjust image, audio, and general settings on your projector.
NOTE: To access effects that are assigned to the Prog 1 and Prog 2 keys, assign the settings for those keys (in the projector's Preferences menu) to Host.

SEE-IT/SHOW-IT See-it/Show-it is a feature of Cyclops F/X that previews the next slide in your presentation on your computer monitor—without switching from the slide your audience sees. The See-it/Show-it feature displays the image, along with a timer that counts down on your computer monitor until See-it/Show-it displays the next slide. You can use See-it/Show-it to preview slides so that you can interact with your audience, while preparing for the message on the next slide.
