Connecting the
Projector
When you connect the projector,
make sure to:
• Turn off all equipment before making any
connections.
• Use the proper cables for each connection.
• Insert the cable plugs firmly; loose
connections may reduce performance of
picture signals. When pulling out a cable,
be sure to pull it out by the plug, not the
cable itself.
For VPL-MX25, when connecting to the USB
connector, see “Operating Instructions for
Network/USB File Viewer” stored on the
CD-ROM.
This section describes how to connect the
projector to a computer.
For more information, refer to the
computer’s instruction manual.
To connect a computer
• The projector accepts VGA, SVGA, XGA,
SXGA and SXGA+ signals. However, we
recommend that you set the output mode of
your computer to XGA for the external
monitor.
• If you set your computer, such as a notebook
computer, to output the signal to both your
computer’s display and the external monitor,
the picture of the external monitor may not
appear properly. Set your computer to output
the signal to only the external monitor.
For details, refer to the operating
instructions supplied with your computer.
