Connecting other compatible computers

When connecting the projector to a compatible computer other than an IBM-PC (VGA/SVGA/XGA/SXGA) or Macintosh (i.e. Workstation), a separate cable may be needed. Please contact your dealer for more information.

Connecting computers other than the recommended types may result in damage to the projector, the computer, or both.

“Plug and Play” function
