Introduction
Y
our compact, lightweight EPSON EMP-703 projector lets
you project full-color images and video onto a large screen for
presentations. You can connect it simultaneously to two
image sources: one PC or Apple® Macintosh® computer
image source, plus one video source such as a video tape deck,
camcorder, or digital camera. You can also connect audio for
each image source.
Images are displayed in full color (16,670,000 colors) at a
XGA resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. Your projector
produces bright images that can be easily seen in rooms light
enough to take notes.
A totally new AVTSS™ (Automatic Video Tracking and
Synchronization Sensing, patent pending) provides automatic
set-up of image from a computer.
You control your projector through a hand-held remote
control unit, with menus being provided for image source
switching and image adjustment. The remote control can also
act as a wireless mouse to control mouse operations on your
computer screen during presentations.

Your projector features the newest resizing technology DAR
(Digital Active Resizing) which supports VGA~UXGA
computer output. No matter what type of computer output is
used, the result is a full-size video image of outstanding
clarity.
The video source can be NTSC, NTSC4.43, NTSC50, PAL
M-PAL, N-PAL, PAL60 or SECAM in composite video or S-
Video format. See Chapter 6 for details on supported
computers and video formats.
