3. Connecting to other compatible
computers
When connecting the projector to a compatible computer
other than an IBM-PC (VGA/SVGA) or Macintosh series, a
separate cable is needed. Please contact your dealer for
ordering information.
Notes:
• Connection to computers other than the recommended
types may result in damage to the projector, the computer,
or both.
• Connect the audio from the computer to the COMPUTER
AUDIO INPUT terminal.
4. External monitor connection
Connect your computer monitor to the projector’s COMPUTER
RGB OUTPUT terminal to view images simultaneously on the
external monitor and the projection screen.
Note:
• When using the projector with an external IBM-PC monitor,
connect the monitor using the supplied cable. When using
the projector with a Macintosh monitor, an optional adaptor
cable is required. Before using any other type of monitor,
carefully check the monitor’s interface specifications and
make sure that they match the specifications of the
projector’s interface.
The external monitor output will only display an analog
computer input signal. It will not display a digital or video
input signal. To split the composite video signal, use a
video distribution amplifier. This is available from your local
dealer.
The computer RGB output will only loop through the same
signal connected to the computer RGB input.
