Connecting to a Second Computer

Page 93 highlights

Connecting to a Second Computer If you want to connect a second computer to the projector, you need to use the BNC connectors (labelled Computer 2/Component Video) on the projector. You'll need a VGA (D-sub 15-pin) to BNC cable, which you can purchase from your computer or electronics dealer. Because these connectors are also used for component video, you can't use a second computer and a component video source at the same time. Follow these steps to connect a computer to the Computer 2/ Component Video interface using a BNC cable: 1. Connect the VGA (D-sub 15-pin) end of the cable to the computer's video port. 2. Connect the five connectors at the other end of the cable to the projector's R/Cr/Pr (red), G/Y (green), B/Cb/Pb (blue), H/CSync (horizontal sync), and VSync (vertical sync) ports, as shown below.

Insert the cable's 3.5-mm plug into your computer's audio-out port. Then attach the RCA connectors at the other end of the cable to the S-Video/BNC ports on the projector.

Connecting to a Second Computer
If you want to connect a second computer to the projector, you need
to use the BNC connectors (labelled
Computer 2/Component
Video
) on the projector. You’ll need a VGA (D-sub 15-pin) to BNC
cable, which you can purchase from your computer or electronics
dealer.
Because these connectors are also used for component video, you can’t
use a second computer and a component video source at the same
time.
Follow these steps to connect a computer to the
Computer 2/
Component Video
interface using a BNC cable:
1.
Connect the VGA (D-sub 15-pin) end of the cable to the
computer’s video port.
2.
Connect the five connectors at the other end of the cable to the
projector’s
R/Cr/Pr
(red),
G/Y
(green),
B/Cb/Pb
(blue),
H/CSync
(horizontal sync), and
VSync
(vertical sync) ports, as shown
below.
3.
To display images properly, make sure the BNC option in the
projector’s Setting menu is set to
RGB
. See page 52 for
instructions.
4.
If you want to hear computer-audio through the projector, you’ll
need an RCA-to-3.5 mm stereo cable (available for purchase from
your electronics store or video dealer).
Insert the cable’s 3.5-mm plug into your computer’s audio-out
port. Then attach the RCA connectors at the other end of the
cable to the
S-Video/BNC
ports on the projector.
