Connecting to a Video Source
You can connect a VCR, a camcorder, a laser disc player,
DVD player, or any other compatible video image source to
your projector.
The projector can receive composite video or S-Video. Your
equipment has composite video if your video source has a
one-pin RCA video jack. Your equipment has S-Video if your
video source has a four-pin (mini-DIN) video jack.
Note:
The projector is not compatible with a cable TV-style F
connector.
You can connect the projector to an S-Video source and a
composite video source at the same time.
The projector supports NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video
formats, and automatically detects and identifies the video
format. However, you can specify that a single broadcast
format be detected. (See Chapter 3.) Note that the projector
will then be able to detect only one type of video signal.
The type of cable you use to connect the video source to the
projector depends on whether you have composite video or
S-Video. For composite video, use the RCA audio and RCA
video cable supplied with the projector. For S-Video, use the
S-Video cable supplied with your video device or obtain one
from your computer or video equipment dealer.
To connect a video source to the projector:
1. Turn off the projector and video source if they are on.
