Video connections

The next step is to figure out what type of connectors/output the equip-
ment you want to connect has. If there is more than one output, select the
one with the highest quality. Component video has the best quality, fol-
lowed by S-video, then composite video.

If you are connecting the projector to HDTV, the projector’s computer con-
nector should be used.

Keep in mind that HDTV and progressive sources can only be handled
through the projector’s VGA connector. The optional Component to S-video
adapter does not function with progressive sources. With progressive
sources, the Component video connector requires the optional Component
to VESA adapter.

Here is a list of possible input signals and the connectors they should be
connected to on the projector
