Connecting a computer

The projector provides two VGA input sockets that allow you to connect them to both IBM® compatibles and Macintosh® computers. A Mac adapter is needed if you are connecting legacy version Macintosh computers.

To connect the projector to a notebook or desktop computer:

1.Take the supplied VGA cable and connect one end to the D-Sub output socket of the computer.

2.Connect the other end of the VGA cable to the COMPUTER IN 1 or COMPUTER IN 2 signal input socket on the projector.

Refer to your notebook's documentation to find your notebook's key combination.
