ly at one end,
connect the core to the projector.
• Secure the screws on the connectors and tighten.
• Whenever attempting to connect a laptop computer to the projector, \

About Plug-and-Play Capability
• This projector is compatible with VESA DDC 1/2B. Plug-and-Play can \
be achieved by
connecting this projector to computers that are VESA DDC (display data \
channel)
compatible. Please take advantage of this function by connecting the acc\
essory RGB
cable to the  rgbport (DDC 1/2B compatible). Plug-and-Play may not work properly if
any other type of connection is attempted.
• Plug-and-Play is a system composed of the computer, its operating s\
ystem and
peripheral equipment (i.e. display devices).
• Please use the standard drivers in your computer as this projector \
is a Plug-and-Play monitor.

new resolution on
Windows. Then the resolution will go back to the original. It might be r\
ecommended to use other CRT or TFT monitors to change the resolution. NOTE
