NOTE: Always use the power cord
that shipped with the projector.

projector’s keypad or remote.
NOTE: The first time you connect
your computer to the projector, the
computer may display a message
stating that new hardware was

Wizard may appear. Use the Wiz-
ard to load the correct driver (the
computer considers the projector a
Plug and Play Monitor).

ness.

have been turned on. Refer to your
computer’s documentation to
determine the correct order.

button on the keypad or remote. For more informa-
tion about the menus, see page 21.
