							Connecting the Cables9
Connecting the Cables
You can connect the projector to any computer that has a standard monitor out 
port using the VGA computer cable that came with the projector. 
In addition, you must connect the USB cable before you can use the interactive 
pens. If the cable is not long enough to reach your computer, you may need to use 
a USB booster cable (not included).
You can also project through the USB port (USB display) or through a network. 
However, the VGA monitor out port on your computer provides the best 
performance when used with the interactive pens.
Connecting the VGA Computer Cable
1. Locate the VGA computer cable connected to the projector. 
2. Connect the other end of the cable to your computer’s   monitor out port.
