Setting Up the Projector
Connecting to Video Sources
You can connect a DVD player, VCR, camcorder, laser disc player,
digital camera, gaming console—such as Microsoft Xbox, Sony
PlayStation 2, or Nintendo GameCube—or any other compatible
video source to your projector. You can connect up to four video
devices at one time.
The projector supports HDTV, SDTV, NTSC, PAL, and SECAM,
and automatically detects the video format. It can receive composite
video, S-video, RGB video, and component video. The type of cable
you need depends on the video source:
■
For composite video, use a commercially-available RCA A/V
cable. See page 23.
■
For S-video, use the S-video cable supplied with your video device
or order one from Epson. See page 24.
■
For RGB video, use the VGA computer cable included with the
projector. See page 25.
■
For component video, you’ll need a component video cable. You
can purchase one from Epson; see page 26.
After connecting your video device to the projector, you may want to
connect an audio cable to play sound from your video equipment
through the projector’s built-in speaker. See page 27 for instructions.
note
The projector does not
support TV antenna cable
F connectors. However, you
can project TV images if you
use a VCR as a tuner.
