Connecting a composite Video source device

Connecting a composite Video source device

Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused composite Video output sockets available:

•If so, you can continue with this procedure.

•If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.

To connect the projector to a composite Video source device:

1.Take a Video cable and connect one end to the composite Video output socket of the Video source device.

2.Connect the other end of the Video cable to the VIDEO socket on the projector.

3.If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker in your presentations, take a suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output socket of the device, and the other end to the AUDIO IN socket of the projector.

4.If you wish, you can use another suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the AUDIO OUT socket of the projector, and the other end to your external speakers

Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display (OSD) menus.

The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:
