Connecting a computer
The projector provides a VGA input socket that allows you to connect it to a laptop or
desktop computer.
To connect the projector to a laptop 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 D-SUB/COMP IN signal input socket
on the projector.
3. If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker, take a suitable audio
cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output socket of the computer,
and the other end to the Audio socket of the projector.
The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:
Many laptops do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a projector. Usually
a key combo like FN + F3 or CRT/LCD key turns the external display on/off. Locate a function
key labeled CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol on the laptop. Press FN and the
labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your laptop’s documentation to find your
laptop’s key combination.
