Location and Function of Controls
Overview
iCONTROL S output connector
Connects to the CONTROL S input
connector on the projector with a
connecting cable (stereo mini plug (not
supplied)) when using the Remote
Commander as a wired one.
You do not need to install batteries in the
Remote Commander, as the power is
supplied from the projector.
About Remote Commander operation
• Make sure that nothing obstructs the
infrared beam between the Remote
Commander and the remote control
detector on the projector. Direct the
Remote Commander toward the remote
control detector.
• The operation range is limited. The shorter
the distance between the Remote
Commander and the projector is, the wider
the angle within which the Remote
Commander can control the projector
becomes.

8Connecting the Projector
BPreparation
Connecting the Projector
• Use the proper cables for each connection.
• Insert the cable plugs firmly; Loose connections may reduce performance of picture signals or
cause a malfunction. When pulling out a cable, be sure to grip it by the plug, not the cable itself.
• For more information, refer also to the instruction manuals of the equipment you are connecting.
Connection with a computer is explained for each input signal.
INPUT A
For connection when there is some distance between a computer and the projector.
INPUT B
For connecting a computer with an RGB output connector.
• It is recommended that you set the resolution of your computer to 1024 × 768 pixels for the
external monitor.
• To connect a Macintosh computer equipped with a video output connector of a type having two
rows of pins, use a commercially available plug adaptor.
