Connecting Your PC Or Macintosh
Computer
Connecting your PC or Macintosh computer to your MultiSync
MT830+ (SVGA) /MT1030+ and MT1035+ (XGA) Projector will
enable you to project your computer's screen image for an impressive
presentation. All of these following display standards are supported:
To connect to a PC, Macintosh or computer equipped with an XGA/
SVGA /VGA adapter or compatible graphics adapter, simply:
1. Turn off the power to your projector and computer.
2. If your PC does not support XGA/SVGA/VGA you will need to
install an XGA/SVGA/VGA graphics board. Consult your
computer's owner's manual for your XGA/SVGA/VGA configura-
tion. If you need to install a new board, see the manual that comes
with your new graphics board for installation instructions.

NOTE: For settings other than display modes supported by your
Macintosh and MT830+/MT1030+/MT1035+, use of the DIP switch may
bounce a image slightly or may display nothing. If this happens, set the
DIP switch to the 13” fixed mode and then restart your Macintosh. After
that, restore to a displayable mode and then restart the Macintosh again.
Make sure that the MT830+/MT1030+/MT1035+ and your Macintosh are
connected with the pin adapter and the supplied signal cable (mini D-Sub
15-pin connector) and then restart your Macintosh.
3. Use the signal cable that's supplied to connect your PC or
Macintosh computer to the projector. For a Macintosh, use the
supplied pin adapter to connect to your Mac's video port.
4. Turn on the projector and the computer.
5. If the projector goes blank after a period of inactivity, it may be
caused by a screen saver installed on the computer you've
connected to the projector.
When using a Macintosh with the MT830+/MT1030+/MT1035+,
set the DIP switches of the supplied pin adapter according to your
resolution. After setting, restart your Macintosh.
See the following pages for setting of the DIP switches.
• When using with a Macintosh, XGA/VGA/SVGA is recom-
mended if your Macintosh supports this mode.
• When using with a Macintosh PowerBook, output may not be
set to 10242768 unless “mirroring” is off on your PowerBook.
Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Macintosh com-
puter for mirroring.
NOTE: A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Computer
is needed for a PowerBook which does not have a mini D-Sub 15-
pin connector.
