Connecting the Projector
When you connect the projector, make sure to:
•Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
•Use the proper cables for each connection.
•Insert the cable plugs firmly; loose connections may increase noise and reduce performance of picture signals. When pulling out a cable, be sure to pull it out from the plug, not the cable itself.
Connecting with a Computer or a VCR
This section describes how to connect the projector to a computer or video equipment.
For more information, refer to the computer’s instruction manual.
Notes
•The projector accepts VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA, SXGA+ and UXGA (60 Hz) signals. However, we recommend that you set the output mode of your computer to XGA mode for the external monitor.
•If you set your computer, such as a notebook type, to output the signal to both your computer’s display and the external monitor, the picture of the projector may not appear properly. Set your computer to output the signal to only the external monitor.
For details, refer to the computer’s operating instructions supplied with your computer.
