NOTE: Before you continue, make sure the projector and your equipment are turned off. If you’re connecting a computer, make sure the distance between it and the projector is 10 feet or less.

NOTE: In some older computers, the monitor connector does not have a hole for Pin 9. If you have trouble connecting the CablePro cable to your computer, contact Boxlight Technical Support.

NOTE: If you are connecting an older Macintosh computer that does not have a 15-pin connector, you must use Mac adaptors (ordered separately).
