Connecting the Projector to Other Equipment
Before connecting, ensure that the power cord of the projector is unplugged from the AC outlet and turn off the equipment to be connected. After making all connections, turn on the projector and then the other pieces of equipment. When connecting a computer, ensure that it is the last equipment to be turned on after all the connections are made.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that the appropriate Input mode has been selected on the projector before you turn on the connected equipment.
•For more details of connection and cables, refer to the operation manual of the connecting equipment.
•You may need other cables or connectors not listed below.

Connections
Note
•When you connect external equipment to the projector using a DVI digital cable, the image will look different from its original appearance. In this case, switch to the Plug-and-Play data. (See page 37.)
•See page 58 “Computer Compatibility Chart” for a list of computer signals compatible with the projector. Use with computer signals other than those listed may cause some of the functions to not work.
•A Macintosh adaptor may be required for use with some Macintosh computers. Contact your nearest Macintosh Dealer.
•Depending on the computer you are using, an image may not be projected unless the computer's external output port is switched on (e.g. Press “Fn” and “F5” keys simultaneously when using a SHARP notebook computer). Refer to the specifi c instructions in your computer's operation manual to enable your computer's external output port.
