Setting Up the Projector

Connecting to a Computer

You can connect the PowerLite projector to any computer that has a
standard video output (monitor) port, including desktop models,
PC notebooks, Macintosh PowerBooks and iBooks, and hand-held
devices. You can connect up to three computers at the same time:

To connect to the

Computer

port (standard VGA cable

connection), see page 27.

To connect using the

BNC

ports, see page 28.

To connect using the

DVI

(Digital Video Interface) port, see

page 29.

After connecting to the computer, you may also want to:

connect a USB cable so you can use the remote control as a
mouse; see page 31

connect a monitor to the projector so you can view your
presentation close-up as well as on-screen (not necessary if you’re
using a notebook); see page 32

connect an audio cable to play computer audio; see page 33

note

If you connect a Windows-
based computer to the
projector, you may see a
New Hardware Wizard
saying your computer has
found a plug-and-play
monitor; if so, click

Cancel

.

note

If you want to connect an
external monitor to the

Monitor Out

port, your

computer must be connected
to either the

Computer

or

BNC

ports. The

Monitor

Out

port does not support a

DVI

connection.
