Connecting the Cable for Remote Mouse
Control

Using the remote control as a wireless mouse lets you control your
computer and click through slideshow-style presentations, such as
PowerPoint, from up to 30 feet away (for details, see page 39). This
gives you more flexibility in delivering your presentation, since you
won’t need to stand near your computer.

The USB cable also provides audio support. If your presentation
includes sound, you can play it through the projector’s speakers by
connecting the USB cable.

1. Locate the cable you need, depending on whether your laptop has

a round PS/2 mouse port or a flat USB mouse port.

2. Connect one end of the cable to the projector’s

USB or

Mouse

port.

3. Connect the other end of the cable to the external mouse port or

USB port on your laptop.

4. If necessary, configure your laptop to work with an external

mouse.

If you don’t need to make any other connections, you can plug in
your projector and turn it on. See page 20 for instructions.

note

If you’re using a PowerBook
that has a round mouse port,
you’ll need a Macintosh
mouse cable. If you have a
PC laptop with a serial
mouse port, you’ll need a
serial mouse cable. See your
projector dealer to obtain the
correct cable.
