Using the remote mouse control
The capability of operating your computer with the remote control gives you more
flexibility when delivering presentations.
1. Connect the projector to your PC or notebook with a USB cable prior to using the
remote control in place of your computer’s mouse. See "Connecting a computer"
on page 14 for details.
2. Set the input signal to COMPUTER.
3. Press Mouse on the remote control to switch from the normal mode to the mouse
mode. An icon appears on the screen to indicate the activation of the mouse
mode.
4. Perform the desired mouse controls on your remote control.

• To right-click, press .
• To operate your display software program (on a connected PC) which responds
to page up/down commands (like Microsoft PowerPoint), press Page Up/Page
Down.
• To return to the normal mode, press Mouse again or other keys except for the
mouse related multi-function keys.
Remote control code
The projector can be assigned to 8 different remote control
codes, 1 to 8. When several adjacent projectors are in
operation at the same time, switching the remote control
codes can prevent interference from other remote
controls. Set the remote control code for the projector first
before changing that for the remote control.
To switch the code for the projector, select from among 1
to 8 in the SYSTEM SETTING: ADVANCED > Remote
Control Code menu.
To switch the code for the remote control, press ID set and the corresponding button
from 1 to 8 buttons on the remote control together for 5 seconds or more. The initial
code is set to1. When the code is switched to 8, the remote control can control every
projector.
Note
• If different codes are set on the projector and remote control, there will be no response
from the remote control. When that happens, switch the code for the remote control
again.

• In the connections shown above, some cables may not be included with the projector
(see "Package contents" on page 2). They are commercially available from electronics
stores.
• The connection illustrations above are for reference only. The rear connecting jacks
available on the projector vary with each projector model.
• For detailed connection methods, see pages 14-16.

Connecting a computer or monitor
Connecting a computer
The projector provides two VGA input sockets that allow you to connect them to both
IBM® compatibles and Macintosh® computers. A Mac adapter is needed if you are
connecting legacy version Macintosh computers.
To connect the projector to a notebook or desktop computer:
1. Take the supplied VGA cable and connect one end to the D-Sub output socket of
the computer.
2. Connect the other end of the VGA cable to the COMPUTER signal input socket on
the projector.
Important
• Many notebooks do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a
projector. Usually a key combo like FN + F3 or CRT/LCD key turns the external display
on/off. Locate a function key labeled CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol
on the notebook. Press FN and the labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your
notebook's documentation to find your notebook's key combination.
Connecting Video source devices
You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the
above connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality.
The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching
terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described below:
