How do I project the same image on a projection screen and a computer monitor or laptop at the same time?

See below for the type of equipment you are connecting.

PC

• You can use the USB Display feature to display the same image on your computer and the projection screen.
• Connect an external monitor with a VGA computer cable to the projector's Monitor Out port.
• Connect an HDMI splitter to the source and connect HDMI cables from the splitter to the projector and an HDMI monitor.
• With a laptop, connect an HDMI or VGA cable to the projector and laptop. After you connect the cable, do one of the following to display the image shown on the projection screen:

  Note: Mirroring the display may not be supported on all laptops.

  • Press the Windows logo and P keys on your keyboard at the same time and then select Duplicate.
  • Press the Fn and monitor (or CRT/LCD) key on the keyboard at the same time. (See your laptop manual for details.) Wait a few seconds for an image to appear.

    Note: If the same image is not displayed by the laptop and projector, make sure your video or graphic card utilities are set to multiple display (Mirror or Duplicate).
