The DDC, Plug and Play function of this projector operates only when used in conjunction with a VESA DDC compatible computer.
Connecting the Projector to Video Equipment
You can connect your projector to a VCR, laser disc player, DVD player, DTV* decoder and other audiovisual
equipment.
CAUTION
Always turn off the projector while connecting to audiovisual equipment, in order to protect both the projector and the
equipment being connected.
Connecting a video source (VCR, laser disc player, DTV decoder or DVD player)
using the standard video input
1 Connect one end of the S-video cable to the S-VIDEO
INPUT 2 terminal, or one end of the video cable to the
VIDEO INPUT 3 terminal on the projector and the video
output terminal on the video source.
2 To use the built-in audio system, connect the red and
white RCA connectors to the corresponding red and
white AUDIO INPUT terminals on the projector and the
audio output terminals on the video source.
The S-VIDEO INPUT 2 terminal uses a video signal system
in which the picture is separated into a colour and a
luminance signal to realise a higher-quality image.
For higher quality video, you may use the S-VIDEO INPUT 2 terminal on
the projector. S-video cable is sold separately.
If your video equipment does not have an S-video output terminal, use
the composite video output terminal.
