Connecting to a Computer

In addition to using the stage for your presentation material, you can connect up to two devices that have RGB video output ports, such as a laptop and desktop computer.

This is especially useful if your projector has only one input port. You can connect the computers to the document camera’s RGB input ports as described below, and connect the document camera to the projector’s input port as shown on page 11. This way, you can use the camera’s control panel or remote control to switch easily between picture sources. Follow the instructions on page 18 to switch between the sources.

Connecting the RGB Video Cable

Before you start, make sure your document camera and computers are turned off.

1.Connect one end of the RGB video cable to the document camera’s RGB1 or RGB2 port.

2.Connect the other end of the RGB video cable to your computer’s RGB video output (monitor) port.

3.Tighten the screws on the connectors. Repeat the steps to connect a second computer.
