Connection

When connecting a signal source to the projector, be sure to:

1.

Turn all equipment off before making any connections.

2.

Use the correct signal cables for each source.

3.

Ensure the cables are firmly inserted.

• 

In the connections shown below, some cables may not be included with the projector (see 

"Shipping 

contents" on page 8

). They are commercially available from electronics stores.

• 

The connection illustrations below are for reference only. The rear connecting jacks available on the 

projector vary with each projector model.

• 

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.

• 

The D-Sub output only works when an appropriate D-Sub input is made to the 

COMPUTER 1

 jack.
