NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect between the projec-
tor and the notebook PC before turning on the power to the notebook PC. In
most cases signal cannot be output from RGB output unless the notebook PC
is turned on after connecting with the projector.
NOTE: If using video, S-video, or audio cables, the cables should be 3 m (9.8feet) or shorter.
Remote Control Guideline for the Remote Control
1. Plug the supplied serial cable with the mouse output port of the pro-
jector into your computerÕs mouse port and restart your computer to
gain remote mouse control.
2. When using the remote controlÕs built-in infrared mouse on a laptop
computer, the laptopÕs mouse, trackball or trackpad will be disabled.
Disconnect the serial cable from the mouse output port and restart
your computer to regain trackball or trackpad mouse control.
3. If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be
the result of the computerÕs screen-saver or power management
software.
4. If you accidentally hit the OFF button on the remote control, wait one
full minute and then press the ON button to resume.Supplied serial cable
