Connection 23
To connect the projector to a notebook or desktop computer (either through a
VGA cable or VGA to DVI-A cable):
The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:
• Many notebooks 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 notebook.
Press FN and the labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your notebook's
documentation to find your notebook's key combination.
• With a VGA cable: • With a VGA to DVI-A cable:
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.
1. Take a VGA to DVI-A cable and
connect the VGA end to the D-Sub
output socket of the computer.
2. Connect the DVI end of the VGA to
DVI-A cable to the DVI-I signal
input socket on the projector.
3. If you wish to use the remote paging function (see "Remote paging operations" on
page 42), take the supplied USB cable and connect the larger end to the USB port
of the computer, and the smaller end to the USB socket on the projector.
4. If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker in your
presentations, 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 IN socket of
the projector.
5. If you wish, you can use another suitable audio cable and connect one end of the
cable to the AUDIO OUT socket of the projector, and the other end to your
external speakers (not supplied).
The audio output is a mixed mono signal. Once connected, the audio can be
controlled by the remote control (MUTE) or projector On-Screen Display (OSD)
menus. See "Audio Settings" on page 50 for details.
