Connecting a monitor
If you want to view your presentation close-up on a monitor as well as on the
screen, you can connect the D-SUB OUT signal output socket on the projector to
an external monitor with a VGA cable following the instructions below:
To connect the projector to a monitor:
1. Connect the projector to a computer as described in "Connecting a computer"
on page 13.
2. Take a suitable VGA cable (only one supplied) and connect one end of the
cable to the D-Sub input socket of the video monitor.
Or if your monitor is equipped with a DVI input socket, take a VGA to DVI-A
cable and connect the DVI end of the cable to the DVI input socket of the
video monitor.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the D-SUB OUT socket on the projector.
The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:
• The D-Sub output only works when an appropriate D-Sub input is made to the projector.
• If you wish to use this connection method when the projector is in standby mode, make
sure the VGA Out function is turned on in the SYSTEM SETUP: Advanced menu. See "VGA
Out" on page 41 for details.
