Switching Between Picture Sources
You can connect the projector to multiple video sources and use 
the buttons on the projector or remote control to switch 
between them:
❏ Press the 
Source
button on the projector to move through
all the video source options.
❏ On the remote control, press the
Input A/B
button to
select a computer or component video source. Press the
S-Video

After you select a source, the screen goes dark for a moment 
before the image appears. The name of the source appears 
briefly on the screen.
Projector Status Lights
If your projector isn’t working correctly, first turn it off, wait for 
the 
warning light to turn a steady orange, and unplug it.
Then plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. If 
this doesn’t solve the problem, check the lights on top of the 
projector. They alert you to problems with projector operations.
