Connecting the Cable for Remote Mouse
Control
If you’ve connected a computer as described in this chapter, you
can use the projector’s remote control as a wireless mouse. This lets
you control your computer and click through slideshow-style
presentations, such as PowerPoint, from up to 30 feet away.
The wireless mouse function is supported on systems with a USB port
running Windows XP, 98, 2000, or Me, or Macintosh OS 8.6 to
OS X 10.2.
1. Locate the USB cable that came with your projector.
2. Connect the square end of the cable to the projector’s USB
port.
3. Connect the flat end of the cable to any available USB port on
your laptop or desktop computer.
4. In the projector’s menu system, set the COM Port setting in the
Advanced 2 menu to USB . See the instructions beginning on
page 124 to use the menu system.
5. If necessary, configure your computer to work with an external
USB mouse. See your computer documentation for details.
