The Procedure Up to Projecting to the Screen
Perform setup adjustments in the following order.
1Position the projectorDetermine the locations to set up the screen and the projector.
See “Placement Guide” on Page E-15.
2Connect the video equipment and personal computer
Connect your equipment to the projector.
When making connections with the personal computer’s RGB connector, see “Connections with
Personal Computer” on Page E-18.
When making connections with the video equipment’s video connector or an S-video connector,
see “Connections with Composite Signals” on Page E-20.
When making connections with the video equipment’s YCbCr connector or YPbPr connector,
see “Connections with Component Signals” on Page E-21.
When playing the audio through the built-in speaker of the projector, see “Connections with the
AUDIO Jack” on Page E-22.
4Connecting the power cable and switching on the powerSee “Operating” on Page E-23.
See “Finishing” on Page E-25.
5When selecting the language of menu displays, etc.(Only when the power is first switched on following purchase)
See  “When [Menu Language Select] Is Displayed Upon Switching On the Power” on Page E-24.
6Switching on the power of the personal computer and video equipment
7Properly adjust the projection image to the screenSee “Adjustment of the Projection Screen” on Page E-26.
8Selecting input equipmentSee “Input Selection” on Page E-28.
9Adjust the screen or video imageAdjust the image to the optimum condition as required.

About DLP projectors
Though careful attention is paid to providing optimum quality, please note that with DLP type projectors, in rare cases there may
be black spots or bright spots among the picture elements.
Note:
* Please purchase a screen.
* A component cable (order code 28-690), which is available separately, is required to connect a DVD player or other equipment with YCbCr
connectors.
* A component cable (order code 28-690), which is available separately, is required to connect high definition (HD) video equipment or other
equipment with YPbPr connectors.

Connecting Personal Computers and Video Equipment
Connecting this unit with a personal computer permits presentation data to be projected as a large screen display at
conferences, lectures, and on other occasions. Furthermore, connecting this unit to a DVD player or other video equip-
ment source in combination with an audio/video amplifier and speaker system will allow you to enjoy convincing home
theater.
Connections with Personal Computer
Please check the following before making connections with the personal computer.
•A suitable resolution for the U5-112/U5-111 is 800 
 600 dots (S-VGA) and the maximum displayable resolution is XGA (1024

 768 dots).
•A suitable resolution for the U5-232/U5-132 is 1024 
 768 dots (XGA) and the maximum displayable resolution is S-XGA
(1280 
 1024 dots).
Make changes to a displayable resolution at the personal computer side. Please check with “Table of Supported Frequency” on
Page E-69.
•The setting method for the personal computer will differ depending on the specific model. Please read the personal computer
instruction manual or the on-line help information, or contact the manufacturer of your personal computer.
Connect the projector’s RBG connector using the included RGB signal cable.
•When making connections with the RGB connector of the projector, please make the connection via the supplied RGB signal
cable.
•The projector has been set to “Auto” at the factory; however, if it does not project, please change the input setting to “RGB”
using the menu sequence of [Setup] → [Input Format] → [RGB].
See “Input Format” on Page E-56.
•If the USB cable is connected to the projector’s MOUSE connector, mouse operations can be performed on the computer from
the projector’s remote control unit. (Applicable models: U5-232 and U5-132)
See “Performing Mouse Operations on the Computer with the Remote Control Unit” on Page E-35.
MONITOR OUT

computer
RGB signal cable (Supplied item)
Note:
* Before making connections, check the power of the projector and the equipment to be connected is switched off.
* When projection will be with a notebook computer connected, knowledge will be required for the cable connection and notebook computer
startup procedure as well as the operation that follows startup. Please consult the instruction manual of your notebook computer or the on-
line help.

Connecting Personal Computers and Video Equipment
To Output the External Output Signal of a Notebook Computer
When projection will be with a notebook computer connected, knowledge will be required for the cable connection and notebook
computer startup procedure as well as the operation that follows notebook startup. Please consult the instruction manual of your
notebook computer or the on-line help while performing the following procedure.
1Check whether a signal is being sent from the notebook computer to the projector.
An indication appearing on the liquid crystal display of the notebook computer does not necessarily mean that an external
output signal is being output.
REFERENCE: When “Resolution” or “Frequency” is not displayed under “Info.” on the menu of the projector, this means that
the external output signal is not being output from the personal computer. See “Resolution/Frequency” on Page E-60.
2Should a sign not be output from the notebook computer, please try the operation described below.
For an IBM PC/AT compatible computer, press the [Fn] key plus any one of the [F1] to [F12] keys. (See the table below.)

Note: Table information is current to September 2002.
Note:
When the liquid crystal display of the notebook computer and the projector are displayed at the same time, the projected image might not be
correct even though the liquid crystal display shows a correct indication. Should this occur, stop the simultaneous display of the notebook
computer and try the mode with external output only. Try an operation such as that described in aforementioned Step 2 and try closing the
liquid crystal panel which might result in external output only.
