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 45.)

The projector can receive composite video, S-Video, and component
video. You can connect the projector to one or more of these video
sources at the same time. If all three are connected, the projector
automatically selects S-Video as the video source.

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 cables included with the
projector.

For component video, use the BNC-style cable that came with
your video device.

For S-Video, use the S-Video cable supplied with your video
device or obtain one from your electronics dealer.

See the following illustration if you’re unsure of which type of
connectors you have.

Follow the instructions below for your type of connection.
