Using Interactive Presentation Utility 2
 (VPL-SW636C/SW631C only)
Using the mouse function of the Interactive Pen Device (main only), you can control a 
computer and applications on the projected screen just like a mouse. Also when employing the 
drawing function of a different application, you can use the Interactive Pen Device to directly 
draw onto the projected file, and save the drawings.
How to operate the mouse function of the Interactive Pen Device (main only)
 Left-click: tap the screen with the tip of the Interactive Pen Device.
 Double-click: tap the screen twice with the tip of the Interactive Pen Device.
 Drag and drop: move the Interactive Pen Device while touching the screen.
By starting Interactive Presentation Utility 2, you can use the Interactive Pen Device to draw 
lines and shapes on the projected screen. In the whiteboard mode, the projected screen can be 
used as an electronic whiteboard and you can select the background image from your photo 
library or the template.
By using both the main and sub Interactive Pen Device, two people can draw on the projected 
screen simultaneously. The main device can use all the functions, whereas the sub device can 
use only the drawing function.
Use of these functions requires installation of Interactive Presentation Utility 2. For Interactive 
Presentation Utility 2 software update, visit Sony’s web site.

Interactive Function
 The interactive function works by a detector in the projector, which picks up infrared rays emitted 
from the tip of the Interactive Pen Device. Observe the precautions noted below.
- Avoid placing the projector where the Interactive Pen detector is directly exposed to fluorescent 
light or other strong light.
- Do not cover the pen tip of the Interactive Pen Device or the Interactive Pen detector.
- Infrared data communication or noise from another device may cause improper operation.
 Observe the precautions noted below during the calibration.
- Avoid placing obstacles between the interactive detector and the screen.
- Do not move the projector and the screen.
 If Calibration Auto does not calibrate properly, try the following methods.
- Shield the screen from strong, direct outside light.
- Reduce the ambient light while Calibration Auto is performed.
- If Calibration (Auto) still does not calibrate properly after reducing the lighting as suggested 
above, click Calibration (Manual(Main)) or Calibration (Manual(Sub)), then calibrate manually.
- If you use a screen which is not white, Calibration Auto may be inaccurate.
 The maximum screen size at which the Interactive function works is 100 inches.
 Images may not be projected properly depending on the operating environment or the application. 
Use Input-A, Input-B, or Input-C to project the images properly.
Make sure the computer and projector are connected with an AV cable. For details on 
connecting the AV cables, see “Connecting the Projector” (page 9).
