3. Use the MultiCable that's supplied to connect your PC or Macintosh computer to the
LCD projector. For a PC, use the smaller 15-pin connector on the cable to connect to
your computer's video port; use the larger 15-pin connector on the cable to connect
to the projector's RGB 1 input. For Macintosh, use the larger 15-pin connector on the
cable to connect to your computer's video port; use the smaller 15-pin connector on
the cable to connect to the projector's RGB 2 input. (You can also use your own
video cable if you wish. For a PC cable, use the smaller 15-pin connector RGB 2 on
the projector. For a Macintosh cable, use the larger 15-pin connector RGB 1 on the
projector.)
4. Turn on the LCD projector and the computer.
5. If the projector goes blank after a period of inactivity, it may be caused by a screen
saver installed on the computer you've connected to the projector.
NOTE: Refer to your computer's owner's manual for more information about your
computer's video output requirements and any special identification or configuring your
projector's image and monitor may require.
