Connecting to video equipment
English
Connecting a computer
Connect the projector to a computer with a VGA cable.
Many laptops do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a projector. Usually a key
combination like Fn + F3 or CRT/LCD key turns the external display on/off. Locate a function key
labeled CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol on the laptop. Press Fn and the labeled
function key simultaneously. Refer to your laptop
's documentation to discover your laptop's key
combination.
Connecting a monitor
If you want to view your presentation close-up on a monitor as well as on the screen and the
MONITOR OUT jack is available on your projector, you can connect the MONITOR OUT signal
output jack on the projector.
• The MONITOR OUT only works when an appropriate D-Sub input is made to the PC jack.
• If you wish to use this connection method when the projector is in standby mode, make sure the Monitor
Out function is turned on in the System Setup: Advanced menu. See "Monitor Out" on page 58 for
details.
