Connecting a monitor

If you want to view your presentation close-up on a monitor as well as on the screen, you can connect the D-SUB OUT signal output socket on the projector to an external monitor with a VGA or VGA to DVI-A cable by following the instructions below.

To connect the projector to a monitor (either through a VGA cable or VGA to DVI-A cable):

• With a VGA cable:

• With a VGA to DVI-A cable:

 

Note: Your monitor must be equipped with

 

a DVI input socket.

1.Connect the projector to a computer as described in "Connecting a computer" on page 13.

The D-SUB output only works when an appropriate D-SUB input is made to the projector. Be sure the projector is connecting with the computer using the D-SUB/COMP. IN socket, not the DVI socket.

2.Take a suitable VGA cable (only one supplied) and connect one end of the cable to the D-Sub input socket of the video monitor.

3.Connect the other end of the cable to the D-SUB OUT socket on the projector.

2.Take a VGA to DVI-A cable and connect the DVI end of the cable to the DVI input socket of the video monitor.

3.Connect the VGA end of the cable to the D-SUB OUT socket on the projector.

The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:
