Connecting a computer

Required computer connections

Connect the black end of the computer cable to the Computer 1 connector on the projector. Connect the blue end to the video port on your computer. If you are using a desktop computer, you first need to disconnect the monitor cable from the computer’s video port.

Some Macintosh→ computers do not have a standard VESA-out video port. If the supplied computer cable will not connect to your computer, purchase the appropriate adapter from your Apple→ reseller.

Connect the black power cable to the connector on the back of the projector and to your electrical outlet.

The Power light on the Status Indicator Panel (page 12) turns amber.

NOTE: Always use the power cable that shipped with the projector.
