To Output the External Output Signal of a Notebook Computer

When projection will be with a notebook computer connected, knowledge will be required for the cable connection and notebook computer startup procedure as well as the operation that follows notebook startup. Please consult the instruction manual of your notebook computer or the on-line help while performing the following procedure.

Check whether a signal is being sent from the notebook computer to the projector.

An indication appearing on the liquid crystal display of the notebook computer does not necessarily mean that an external output signal is being output.

REFERENCE: When “Resolution” or “Frequency” is not displayed under “Info.” on the menu of the projector, this means that the external output signal is not being output from the personal computer. See “Resolution/Frequency” on Page E-60.

Should a sign not be output from the notebook computer, please try the operation described below.

For an IBM PC/AT compatible computer, press the [Fn] key plus any one of the [F1] to [F10] keys. (See the table below.)

Manufacturer	Model	Key
DELL	All computers	Fn + F8
EPSON	All computers	Fn + F8
FUJITSU	All computers	Fn + F10
iiyama	All computers	Fn + F3
IBM	All computers	Fn + F7
NEC	All computers	Fn + F3
Panasonic	All computers	Fn + F3
SHARP	All computers	Fn + F5
SONY	All computers	Fn + F7
SOTEC	All computers	Fn + F3–F5

Note: Table information is current to December 2003.

Note:

When the liquid crystal display of the notebook computer and the projector are displayed at the same time, the projected image might not be correct even though the liquid crystal display shows a correct indication. Should this occur, stop the simultaneous display of the notebook computer and try the mode with external output only. Try an operation such as that described in aforementioned Step 2 and try closing the liquid crystal panel which might result in external output only.
