Connection 17

4. 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.

Connecting a computer

The projector provides a VGA input socket that allows you to connect it to a laptop or

desktop computer.

To connect the projector to a laptop 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 D-SUB signal input socket on the

projector.

The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:

Many laptops 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 laptop. Press FN and the

labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your laptop’s documentation to find your

laptop’s key combination.
