Connecting to a PC Laptop
To connect the projector to your laptop, notebook computer, or
hand-held device, you need to use the computer cable. If you’ll be
using the remote control as a wireless mouse, you need to connect a
mouse cable. If you’ll be using audio through the projector’s speakers,
you need to connect an audio cable (not included with the projector).
Connecting the Computer Cable
Before you start, turn off your laptop and the projector.
1. Connect one end of the computer cable to the projector’s
Computer
port.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to your laptop’s video-out or
monitor port.
3. Tighten the screws on the connectors.
If you don’t need to make any other connections, you can plug in and
turn on your equipment; see page 23 for instructions.
note
Laptop configurations vary.
See your manual if you’re not
familiar with the ports on
your laptop.
