Connecting with the VGA Cable

Follow these instructions to connect to your computer with the VGA cable that came with your projector. Before you start, make sure your computer and the projector are turned off.

1.If you are connecting the projector to a desktop computer, disconnect the monitor cable from your computer.

2. Locate the VGA computer cable that came with the projector.

Connect one end of the cable to the projector’s Computer1(Component)

or Computer2(Component) port. If

you are going to connect your computer monitor to the projector for simultaneous display, use the Computer1(Component) port.

3.Connect the other end of the cable to your computer’s video-out or monitor port.

If you’re using a PowerBook or iBook and you can’t connect the cable, you may need to use an optional Macintosh video adapter; see your computer dealer.

4.If you want to view the display simultaneously on your computer monitor and the projector screen, see “Connecting an External Monitor” on page 22.

5.Tighten the screws on the connectors.

If you don’t need to make any other connections, you can plug in your projector and turn it on. See page 32 for instructions.
