Connecting a composite Video source device
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused composite
Video output sockets available:
• If so, you can continue with this procedure.
• If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.
To connect the projector to a composite Video source device:
1. Take a Video cable and connect one end to the composite Video output socket of
the Video source device.
2. Connect the other end of the Video cable to the VIDEO socket on the projector.
Important
• If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the
correct video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on
and operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected
correctly.
• You need only connect to this device using a composite Video connection if Component
Video and S-Video inputs are unavailable for use. See "Connecting Video source
devices" on page 16 for details.
Playing sound through the projector
You can make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker in your presentations, and
also connect separate amplified speakers to the AUDIO OUT socket of the projector.
If you have a separate sound system, you will most likely want to connect the audio
output of your Video source device to that sound system, instead of to the mono audio
projector.
You can also use a microphone to output the sound through the projector speaker.
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display
(OSD) menus. See "Audio Setting" on page 33 for details.
The table below describes the connection methods for different devices, and where
the sound is from.

The selected input signal determines which sound will be played by the projector speaker, and
which sound will be output from the projector when AUDIO OUT is connected. If you select a
PC signal; the projector can play the sound received from AUDIO IN 1/ AUDIO IN 2 or MIC.
