Connecting a DVI-D source device

The projector provides a DVI-Dinput socket that allows you to connect it to a DVI-D source device like a DVD player.

DVI-D format is used to directly carry a digital signal to a digital display without signal conversion. The pure digital connection provides faster and higher image quality than an analog connection, due to the nature of the digital format.

Examine your source device to determine if it has an unused DVI-D output socket 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 DVI-D source device:

1.Take a DVI-D cable and connect one end to the DVI-D output socket of the DVI-D source device. Connect the other end of the cable to the DVI-Dsignal input socket on the projector.

2.If you wish to make use the projector (mixed mono) speakers, take a suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output sockets of the video device, and the other end to the AUDIO socket of the projector.

Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display (OSD) menus. See "Audio Settings" on page 44 for details.
