Welcome
To prevent unauthorized use of the projector, you can assign a
password, create a user logo which is displayed at startup to identify
the projector, and disable the projector’s buttons through the
Operation Lock feature. For more information about security features,
see page 65.
Getting the Most from Your Projector
Depending on your presentation, you can take advantage of any or all
of these options:
■ Connecting to a laptop or other computer
If you want to connect the projector to a laptop or desktop
computer, see page 18. For additional presentation control, you
can connect a USB cable to the projector for running slide shows,
and connect an external monitor to view the presentation on your
computer simultaneously.
■ Connecting to video sources
You can connect a DVD player, VCR, HDTV, camcorder, laser
disc player, digital camera, and other video sources to your
projector. See page 24 for instructions.

Using the remote control
The remote control lets you switch from computer to video
sources, zoom in on part of your image, freeze or mute the
presentation, and adjust many other projector features. For
details, see Chapter 3.
By connecting a USB cable to your projector, you can also use the
remote control as a wireless mouse. This lets you click through
computer-based presentations (such as PowerPoint
® ) from up to
20 feet away. For more information, see page 49.
