Connecting a Macintosh Computer

NOTE: Some PowerBooks require

the Apple-supplied video-out cable

or monitor adapter for external

video. Connect it between the

PowerBook and the CablePro Lite

computer cable/Mac adaptor as

shown in Figure 6.

1

Plug the

end of the CablePro Lite computer cable into the

video connector on your computer (you may need a Mac
adaptor, ordered separately).

2

Plug the CablePro Lite/Mac adaptor into the video connector
on your computer (or the Apple video-out cable or monitor
adapter, if needed).

3

Plug the

end of the CablePro Lite computer cable into

the

connector on the projector.

4

If you want the projector display to be the same as the Power-
Book’s screen display, turn on video mirroring (called
SimulScan in newer PowerBooks). See “Using Video Mirror-
ing with a PowerBook Computer” on page 4
6 for additional
information.

NOTE: If you are connecting a

desktop computer and want to

view your presentation on your

monitor, purchase the optional

CablePro.
