Connecting to a Macintosh Laptop

1. Make sure the laptop is off and the projector is unplugged.
2. If a front cover and lens cap are included, remove the front cover of the projector by gently pulling out on the sides. Then take the lens cap off.
3. Connect one end of the video cable to Input A or Input B.
4. Connect the other cable end to an adapter and then connect it to the monitor port on the back of the computer, or the side depending on the model. (This cable will fit in only one port.) Please do not force the connections- be gentle.
5. Connect the power cable to the projector and plug the other end into an outlet. The red “standby” light should come on.
6. Always turn the projector on first. Tap the power button on top of the projector to turn it on. The button is found at the top right corner of the keypad with green lettering. The green “on” light should come on.
7. Turn on the computer.
8. If you don’t see anything projected, tap the input button on top of the projector. The input button switches the source from which the projector is receiving a signal. Press the input button to cycle through the sources (Input A, Input B, Video) until the image appears. The input should match the port the video cable is plugged into (Input A or B).
9. If you are using the remote control, and it is not working, you must make sure that the small gray switch on the upper left-hand corner of the remote (marked “command”) is set to “on”.
10. If the remote is still not functioning, check to see if the triangle at the top of the remote (under the Sony label) is lighting up when a button is pressed. The batteries may be dead if there is no light. Replace them with two double A batteries.
    

Disconnecting the Sony LCD Projector

1. To disconnect, tap the power button on the projector twice to turn it off. The green “on” light should start blinking.
2. Turn off the computer.
3. Wait until the “on” light has stopped blinking. This may take anywhere between 30 seconds and a full minute. The red “standby” light must come on before continuing.
4. Disconnect the projector’s power cable.
5. Disconnect the video cable from the computer and the projector.
6. Replace the lens cap and the front cover. Make sure the cover snaps into the grooves on the side of the projector.
7. When securing the projector back into its case, make sure the handle is facing up and that the screws on the bottom of the projector are flush with the base.
