Connecting a computer
The projector provides two VGA input sockets that allow you to connect them to both
IBM® compatibles and Macintosh® computers. A Mac adapter is needed if you are
connecting legacy version Macintosh computers.
To connect the projector to a notebook 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 COMPUTER IN 1 or COMPUTER
IN 2 signal input socket on the projector.
3. 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 device, and the other end to the AUDIO IN socket of the projector.
4. 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).
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display
(OSD) menus.
