Setting Up the Projector 17
Connecting to a Computer
You can connect the PowerLite projector to any computer that has a
standard VGA or BNC monitor port, including PC notebook and
laptop computers, Macintosh PowerBooks and iBooks, and hand-held
devices.
Follow the instructions in this section to:
■ Connect the projector to your computer with the VGA cable
included with the projector.
■ Connect the projector to your computer with a commercially
available VGA–5BNC cable.
After connecting the projector to your computer, you may also
want to:
■ Connect a USB cable to your PowerLite 260d projector so that
you can use the remote control as a wireless mouse; see page 20.
■ Connect a monitor to the projector so you can view your
presentation close-up as well as on-screen (not necessary if you’re
using a laptop); see page 21.
■ Connect the projector to your computer with a commercially
available audio cable to play computer audio; see page 22.
note
If you have an iBook with an
RCA output port, follow the
instructions for connecting to
an image device on page 24.
