Installing the Pen Batteries

If the indicator light is green, the batteries have enough power.
It’s a good idea to attach a commercially-available cord or lanyard to the pens.
If you need to install or replace the batteries, use either the two rechargeable AAA 
batteries that came with the projector or two alkaline AAA batteries. Do not mix 
the two battery types.

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.
