Setting Up the Projector 31

Connecting to a Computer

You can connect the projector to a Windows or Macintosh computer

using the projector’s TypeB USB port. This lets you carry a

lightweight cable with you when you transport the projector (see

page 31).

You can connect the projector to any computer that has a standard

video output (monitor) port, including desktop models, PC and

Macintosh computers, and hand-held devices. See page 34 for

instructions.

To play sound through the projector, connect an audio cable (see

page 41).

You may be able to use your remote control as a wireless mouse when

projecting from a computer (see page 61).

Connecting to the USB Port

You can connect a PC with a 32-bit version of Windows 7, Windows

Vista®, Windows XP, or Windows 2000 (SP4) or a Macintosh

computer with OS X 10.5.1 or 10.6.x to the projector’s TypeB

(square) USB port and project your computer’s display. A USB

2.0 connection (recommended) provides better picture quality and

response than USB 1.1.

projector.

2. Make sure the USB Type B setting on the Extended menu is set

to USB Display (see page 75).
