22 Setting Up the Projector
Connecting to a Computer
You can connect the PowerLite projector to any computer that has a
standard VGA, BNC, or DVI-D (or DFP) dual-link monitor port,
including desktop models, PC notebook and laptop computers,
Macintosh PowerBooks and iBooks, and hand-held devices. (Some
proprietary video ports may require a special adapter.) You can
connect up to four computers at the same time:
■ To connect to the Computer 1 or Computer 2 port (standard
VGA cable connection), see page 23.
■ To connect using the BNC port, see page 24.
■ To connect using the DVI (Digital Video Interface) port, see
page 25.
After connecting any video cables, you may also want to:
■ connect a USB cable so you can use the remote control as a
mouse; see page 27
■ connect a monitor to the projector so you can view your
presentation close-up as well as on-screen (not necessary if you’re
using a laptop); see page 28
■ connect an audio cable to play computer audio; see page 29
note
The projector accepts a wide
range of resolutions and
video formats. For best
results, set your computer to
output video at the
projector’s native display
resolution (1024
×
768).
See page 120 for
instructions.
