Connecting a computer source
Required computer connections
Connect one end of the provided computer cable to the Computer 1 or Computer 2 connector on the projector and the other to the VESA connec- tor on your computer. If you are using a desktop computer, you will need to disconnect the monitor cable from the computer’s video port first (you can connect this monitor cable to the Monitor Out connector on the projector, see below).
Connect the black power cord to the Power connector on the side of the pro- jector and to your electrical outlet. The Power light on the Status Indicator Panel (page 14) turns amber.
NOTE: Always use the power cord that shipped with the projector.

NOTE: The projector must be plugged for this feature to work.
To advance slides in a PowerPoint presentation using an optional remote control, plug the USB cable into the USB mouse connector on your com- puter and the USB connector on the projector.
