NOTE: Many laptop computers
do not automatically turn on their
external video port when a sec-
ondary display device such as a
projector is connected. Refer to
your computer manual for the
command that activates the exter-
nal video port.
Connecting a Computer
The projector ships with an analog computer cable. If your com-
puter has a digital output, you can order the optional digital com-
puter cable. Using a digital source generates the highest quality
and brightest image possible. See “Optional Accessories” on
page37.
1Plug the black end of the computer cable into the “Computer”
connector on the projector.
2Plug the blue end of the computer cable into the video connec-
tor on your computer. If you are using a desktop computer,
you need to disconnect your monitor cable from your com-
puter.
