Connections
Connecting to a Computer
Before connecting, ensure the power cord of the projector from the AC outlet is unplugged,
and that the devices to be connected are turned off . After making all connections, turn on the
projector and then the other devices. When connecting a computer, ensure that it is the last
device to be turned on after all the connections are made.
Ensure the operation manuals of the devices to be connected have been read before making connections.
When connecting with the RGB cable
(Connecting to COMPUTER/COMPONENT 1 or 2: The illustration shown below is for the former.)
*
When using the ø3.5 mm mono audio cable, the volume level will be half of when using the ø3.5 mm stereo audio cable.
Note
• See page 65 “Computer Compatibility Chart” for a list of computer signals compatible with the projector.
Use with computer signals other than those listed may cause some of the functions to not work.
• A Macintosh adaptor may be required for use with some Macintosh computers. Contact your nearest
Macintosh Dealer.
• Depending on the computer y ou are using, an image may not be pr ojected unless the computerÕs
external output port is switched on. (e .g. Press ÒFnÓ and ÒF5Ó keys simultaneously when using a
SHARP notebook computer). Refer to the specific instructions in your computer’s operation manual to
enable your computer’s external output port.

Connections
Connecting to Video Equipment
The image quality is highest in order of the Component signal, the RGB signal, the S-video signal and the
Video signal. If your audio-visual equipment has a component output terminal or RGB output terminal, use the
COMPUTER/COMPONENT terminal 1 or 2 on the projector for video connection.
When connecting video equipment with a DVI output terminal
Note
• Select the input signal type of the video equipment. See page 47.
• While the projector is connected to video equipment that has an HDMI output terminal, only the video
signal can be input to the projector. (Connect the AUDIO input terminal for audio input.)
• Depending on specifications of video equipment or HDMI to DVI digital cable, the signal transmission
may not work property. (The HDMI specification does not support all connections to video equipment
that has HDMI digital output terminal using HDMI to DVI digital cable.)
• For details on compatibility for connection, see support information on DVI connection provided by the
video equipment manufacturer.
When connecting video equipment with component video output terminal
(Connecting to COMPUTER/COMPONENT 1 or 2: The illustration shown below is for the former.)
Note
• When you connect video equipment with a 21-pin RGB output (Euro-scart) to the projector, use a
commercially available cable that fits in the projector terminal you want to connect.
• The projector does not support RGBC signals via the Euro-scart.

Note
• This projector may not be able to display images from notebook computers in simultaneous (CRT/LCD)
mode. Should this occur, turn off the LCD display on the notebook computer and output the display data
in “CRT only” mode. Details on how to change display modes can be found in your notebook computer’s
operation manual.
• When this projector receives 640 × 350 VESA format VGA signals, “640 × 400” appears on the screen.
• When projecting the RGB interlace signal using COMPUTER/COMPONENT 1, 2 or DVI-D with “Signal Type”
set to “Auto” or “RGB”, the image may not be projected as desired. In this case, use either Video or S-Video.
• Depending on the computer you are using, the output signal may not be faithful to the “Screen resolution”
adjustment. Check the settings of the computer’s signal output. If the settings cannot be changed, it is recom-
mended that the resolution be set to the one that corresponds to “1280 × 800”.
