Setting Up the Projector
Connecting to a Computer
Follow the instructions in this section to connect a PC or Macintosh
directly to the projector. (To access the projector over a network, see
page 31.) The connections you make depend on how you plan to use
the projector:
■
To project computer images, you need to connect a standard
VGA cable as described on page 19. You can also connect a
second computer using the projector’s BNC connectors as shown
on page 25.
■
If you’re presenting from a computer and want to use the remote
control as a wireless mouse (for example, to click through
slideshow presentations), you need to connect the mouse cable as
described on page 22. (If you’re presenting with EasyMP.net, no
special cable is needed.)
■
If the projector isn’t networked and you want to use the EMP
Link V software to control its settings from a computer, you need
to connect the serial cable (see page 22). (If the projector is
connected to the network, no special cable is required; see page 64
for details on setting up the software.)
■
To use the projector’s built-in sound system, you need to connect
an audio cable as described on page 24.
■
To connect to a high-end workstation or a computer that outputs
images in DVI format, see page 25.
