    NOTE: Many laptop computers 
    do not automatically turn on their 
    external video port when a sec-
    ondary display device such as a 
    projector is connected. Refer to 
    your computer manual for the 
    command that activates the exter-
    nal video port. 
    Connecting a Computer
    The projector ships with an analog computer cable. If your com-
    puter has a digital output, you can order the optional digital com-
    puter cable. Using a digital source generates the highest quality 
    and brightest image possible. See “Optional Accessories” on 
    page 37.
    1Plug the black end of the computer cable into the “Computer”
     
    connector on the projector.
    2Plug the blue end of the computer cable into the video connec-
    tor on your computer. If you are using a desktop computer, 
    you need to disconnect your monitor cable from your com-
    puter.

    nector on the projector.

    Setting up the Projector
    Do you want to advance slides in PowerPoint with the projector’s 
    remote?
    NOTE: The USB mouse is
    supported for use with
    Windows 98 or higher only.
    1Plug the USB end of the computer cable into the mouse con-
    nector on your computer. 
    You must have the appropriate USB drivers installed on your 
    computer to use the USB feature. Windows 98 ships with the 
    appropriate drivers. For more information, see “Powering up the 
    Projector” on page 11.
    Now you’re ready to power up the projector and your computer. 
    Skip to page 11.

    Connecting a Video Player
    If your video device (VCR, DVD player, video camera) uses a 
    round, one-prong composite video connector, use the composite 
    audio/video (A/V) cable. 
    If your video device uses a round, four-prong S-video con-
    nector, use an S-video cable, ordered separately. S-video 
    generates a higher quality image.
    1Plug the A/V cable’s round yellow connector into the “video-
    out” connector on your video device (Figure 8). This connec-
    tor may be labeled “To Monitor.”
    If you’re using an S-video cable, connect the round black 
    connector to the “S-video out” connector on the video 
    device.
    2Plug the other yellow connector into the “Video” connector on 
    the projector.
    If you’re using S-video, plug the other end of the cable into 
    the “S-video” connector on the projector.

    Connecting the projector to a VCR using the S-video cable and A/V cable
    CAUTION: Your video player
    may also have a “Video Out”
    connector for a coaxial cable
    connection. DO NOT use this to
    connect to the projector.
    3Plug the A/V cable’s white connector into the left “audio out” 
    connector on your video device. Plug the cable’s red connec-
    tor into the right “audio out” connector on the video device.
    4Plug the blue end of the A/V cable into the “Audio in” con-
    nector on the projector.
    When you are using the S-video cable along with the A/V 
    cable, the A/V cable’s yellow connectors are not used.
    The projector is compatible with these major broadcast video 
    standards: NTSC, NTSC 4.43, PAL, PAL-M, PAL-N, PAL-60, and 
    SECAM. It automatically adjusts to optimize its performance for 
    the incoming video.

    Powering up the Projector
    NOTE: Always use the power cord 
    that shipped with the projector.
    1Remove the lens cap.
    2Plug the power cord into the side of the projector, then plug it 
    into your electrical outlet. A surge-protected power strip is 
    recommended.
    The LED turns orange (Figure 6 on page 6).
    3Press the 
    Powe r button on the top of the projector.
    NOTE: The first time you connect 
    your computer to the projector, the 
    computer may display a message 
    stating that new hardware was 
    found. The Add New Hardware 
    Wizard may appear. Use the Wiz-
    ard to load the correct driver (the 
    computer considers the projector a 
    Plug and Play Monitor). 
    The fans start to run, the LED on the top of the projector 
    (Figure 6 on page 6) lights solid green if the projector is con-
    nected to a valid source, and the startup screen appears. It 
    takes about one minute for the image to achieve full bright-
    ness.
    4If you connected to a video player, turn it on.
    The video image should display on the projection screen. If 
    it doesn’t, press the 
    Source/Select button on the keypad or 
    the 
    Video button on the remote to display your video 
    image.
    5If you connected to a computer, turn it on. 
    The first time you connect a particular computer to the projec-
    tor, the computer recognizes the projector as “new hardware” 
    and the Add New Hardware Wizard appears. Follow these 
    instructions to use the Wizard to load the correct driver (which 
    was installed with your Windows operating system).
    Click Next. Make sure “Search for the best driver” is selected, 
    then click Next.

    Setting up the Projector
    Uncheck any checked boxes, then click Next. Windows auto-
    matically locates the driver. If this driver has been removed, 
    reload the driver using your Windows operating system CD.
    When Windows finds the driver, you are ready to install it. 
    Click Next.

    Click Finish when installation is complete.
    6The computer image should display on the projection screen. 
    If it doesn’t, press the 
    Source/Select button on the keypad or 
    the 
    Computer button on the remote to display your com-
    puter ’s image. 
    NOTE: With some computers, 
    the order in which you power up 
    the equipment is very important. 
    Most computers should be turned 
    on last, after all other peripherals 
    have been turned on. Refer to your 
    computer’s documentation to 
    determine the correct order. 
    Make sure your laptop’s external video port is activated; 
    see your laptop’s documentation for details.
    If necessary, make adjustments to the image using the pro-
    jector ’s on-screen menus. To open the menus, press the 
    Menu button on the keypad or remote. For more informa-
    tion about the menus, see page 21.

    Setting up the Projector
    Turning Off the Projector
    To turn off the projector, press the 
    Powe r button. A dialog box 
    appears, asking for confirmation. Press 
    Powe r again to turn the 
    lamp off. The fans continue to run and the LED blinks orange for 
    about 90 seconds, then the projector shuts off. The LED then stays 
    on solid orange until the power cord is removed from the projec-
    tor.
    If you want to turn the lamp back on, you must allow 90 seconds 
    for the lamp to cool. The lamp won’t light if it’s too hot.
    NOTE: To maximize lamp life,
    allow the projector to run for at
    least five minutes before turning
    it off.
    You can also use the Display Power Management System (DPMS) 
    to automatically turn the projector off if no active source is found. 
    See page 24 for details.
