14 Setting Up the Document Camera
Connecting to a Computer
In addition to using the stage for your presentation material, you can
connect up to two devices that have RGB video output ports, such as a
laptop and desktop computer.
This is especially useful if your projector has only one input port. You
can connect the computers to the document camera’s RGB input
ports as described below, and connect the document camera to the
projector’s input port as shown on page 11. This way, you can use the
camera’s control panel or remote control to switch easily between
picture sources. Follow the instructions on page 18 to switch between
the sources.
Connecting the RGB Video Cable
Before you start, make sure your document camera and computers are
turned off.
1. Connect one end of the RGB video cable to the document
camera’s
RGB1
or
RGB2
port.
2. Connect the other end of the RGB video cable to your computer’s
RGB video output (monitor) port.
3. Tighten the screws on the connectors.
Repeat the steps to connect a second computer.
