Connecting a monitor
If you want to view your presentation close-up on a monitor as well as on the screen, you
can connect the D-SUB OUT signal output socket on the projector to an external monitor
with a VGA cable following the instructions below:
To connect the projector to a monitor:
1. Connect the projector to a computer as described in "Connecting a computer" on page
17.
2. Take a suitable VGA cable (only one supplied) and connect one end of the cable to the
D-Sub input socket of the video monitor.
Or if your monitor is equipped with a DVI input socket, take a VGA to DVI-A cable
and connect the DVI end of the cable to the DVI input socket of the video monitor.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the D-SUB OUT socket on the projector.
The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:
• The D-Sub output only works when an appropriate D-Sub input is made to the projector.
• If you wish to use this connection method when the projector is in standby mode, make
sure the Standby D-Sub Output function is turned on in the SYSTEM SETUP: Advanced
menu. See "Standby D-Sub Output" on page 46 for details.
