Connecting to a Second Computer 
If you want to connect a second computer to the projector, you need 
to use the BNC connectors (labelled 
Computer 2/Component

cable, which you can purchase from your computer or electronics 
dealer.
Because these connectors are also used for component video, you can’t 
use a second computer and a component video source at the same 
time.
Follow these steps...

Mouse 2 port on the projector. Then connect the other end of 
the cable to the computer’s mouse or USB port.
