Displaying your Computer Source

1Remove the lens cap.

2Plug the power cord into the side of the projector, then plug it into your electrical outlet. A surge-protected power strip is recommended.

•The LED on the top of the projector (Figure 24 on page 30) lights green.

3Turn on the lamp by pressing the green power button on the keypad or remote.

•A tone sounds when you press the button, and the LED blinks green while the software initializes. When initializa- tion is complete, the LED lights solid green and the startup screen appears.

4Turn on your computer.

a The first time you connect a particular computer to the pro- jector, the computer recognizes the projector as “new hard- ware” and the Add New Hardware Wizard appears.

Follow these instructions to use the Wizard to load the cor- rect driver (which was installed with your Windows oper- ating system).

Click Next. Make sure “Search for the best driver” is selected, then click Next.
