Setting Up the Projector 15
Connecting to Video Sources
You can connect a DVD player, VCR, camcorder, laser disc player,
digital camera, or any other compatible video source to your projector.
The projector supports HDTV, NTSC, PAL, and SECAM, and
automatically detects the video format. (However, if you’re using a
60-hertz PAL system, you’ll need to select
PAL60 in the Video menu,
as described on page 47.)
The projector can receive composite video, S-Video, and component
video. You can connect one or more of these video sources at the same
time. However, these sources share the same audio input port, so you
can connect audio for only one of the sources (see page 19).
The type of cable you use depends on whether you have composite
video, S-Video, or component video.
■ For composite video, use the RCA video cable included with the
projector.
■ For S-Video, use the S-Video cable supplied with your video
device or obtain one from your electronics dealer.
■ For component video, you’ll need a VGA-to-3BNC cable. You
can purchase this from EPSON; see page 8.
See the following illustration if you’re not sure which type of
connectors you have.
