Push and slide to open the lid, then 
install the two size AA (R6) batteries 
(supplied) with the correct polarity.

Replace the lid.

• Make sure that the battery orientation is 

correct when inserting batteries.

• Do not mix an old battery with a new one 

or different types of batteries. 

• If you do not use the Remote Commander 

for a long time, remove the batteries to 
avoid damage from battery leakage. If 
batteries have leaked, remove them, wipe 
and dry the battery compartment, and 
replace the batteries with new ones. 

• Make sure that nothing obstructs the 

infrared beam between the Remote 
Commander and the remote control 
detector on the projector. Direct the 
Remote Commander toward the front or 
rear remote control detector.

• The operation range is limited. The shorter 

the distance between the Remote 
Commander and the projector is, the wider 
the angle within which the commander can 
control the projector becomes. 

Be sure to install 
the battery from 
the

Connecting the Projector

.

Turn off all equipment before making any connections.

.

Use the proper cables for each connection.

.

Insert the cable plugs properly; plugs that are not fully inserted often 
generate noise. When pulling out a cable, be sure to pull it out from the plug, 
not the cable itself.

This section describes how to connect the projector to a computer.
For more information, refer to the computer’s instruction manual.

. The projector accepts VGA, SVGA, XGA, and SXGA signals. However, we 

recommend that you set the output mode of your computer to SVGA (VPL-CS2) or 
XGA (VPL-CX1) mode for the external monitor.

. If you set your computer, such as a notebook type, 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 computer’s operating instructions supplied with your 
computer.

. Supplied mouse cable may not work properly according to your computer.

. This projector is compatible with a DDC2B (Digital Data Channel 2B). If your 

computer is compatible with a DDC, turn the projector on according to the following 
procedures.

Connect the projector to the computer by using the supplied HD D-sub 15 pin cable.

Turn the projector on.

Start the computer.

When connecting the projector to a computer by using the USB cable for the 
first time, the computer recognizes the following devices automatically.

USB hub (general use)

USB human interface device (wireless mouse function)

USB human interface device (projector control function)

The computer also recognizes the device connected to the downstream 
connector on the projector.

When you use the USB function, connect your computer as illustrated above. 
This application software and the USB function can be used on a computer 
loaded with Windows 98, Windows 98 SE or Windows 2000 preinstall 
models.

. As the projector recognizes the USB mouse when the computer is 

connected to the USB connector, do not connect anything to the PS/2 
mouse port.

. Your computer may not start correctly when connected to the projector 

via the USB cable.  In this case, disconnect the USB cable, restart the 
computer, then connect the computer to the projector using the USB 
cable.

. This projector is not guaranteed for suspend, standby mode. When you 

use the projector in suspend, standby mode, disconnect the projector 
from the USB port on the computer.

. Operations are not guaranteed for all the recommended computer 

environments.
