blue
Computer1 or Computer2 port, and the other end to your
computer’s monitor port.

sound through the projector (see page 49), or connect the USB
cable to use the remote control as a mouse (see page 42).

connector to fit a port with a
different shape or number of
pins. You may damage the
port or connector.
note
Make sure the Input Signal
setting in the Signal menu is
set to Auto or RGB (see
