Connecting Your PC Or Macintosh
Computer
Connecting your PC or Macintosh computer to your
PlasmaSync 4200W will enable you to display your
computer's screen image for an impressive presentation. The
PlasmaSync 4200W supports the signals described on page
12.
To connect to a PC, Macintosh or computer equipped with
an SVGA/VGA adapter or compatible graphics adapter,
simply:
1. Turn off the power to your PlasmaSync 4200W and
computer.
2. If your PC does not support SVGA/VGA you will need to
install an SVGA/VGA graphics board. Consult your
computer's owner's manual for your SVGA/VGA configu-
ration. If you need to install a new board, see the manual
that comes with your new graphics board for installation
instructions.
3. Use the signal cable that's supplied to connect your PC or
Macintosh computer to the PlasmaSync 4200W. For
Macintosh, use the supplied monitor adapter to connect
to your computer's video port.
4. Turn on the PlasmaSync 4200W and the computer.
5. If the PlasmaSync 4200W goes blank after a period of
inactivity, it may be caused by a screen saver installed on
the computer you've connected to the PlasmaSync
4200W.
When using a Macintosh with the PlasmaSync 4200W, set
the DIP switch of the supplied monitor adapter according to
your resolution. After setting, restart your Macintosh.
