Composite (RCA) video connection
Plug the composite video cable’s yellow connector into the video-out connector on the video device. Plug the other yellow connector into the yellow Composite connector on the projector.
S-video connection
If your video device uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, plug the S-video cable into the S-video connector on your video device and into the S-videoconnector on the projector.
Component (RCA) connection
If your device uses component connectors, plug a component video cable with red, green, and blue RCA connectors into the source device’s component connectors and the Component connectors on the projector.
SCART RGB connection
SCART (from Syndicat des Constructeurs d'Appareils Radiorécepteurs et Téléviseurs) is a French-originated standard and connector for connecting audio and video equipment to display devices. The video signal is separated into its primary components for brighter, more accurate colors and sharper detail. You must enable this connector in the Source Enable menu to use it, see page 20. You will also need a SCART to 4-RCA adapter to connect to your SCART device.
Digital connections
The M1-DA/DVI and HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connectors are digital and yield the highest quality image. It is common for these signals to be encrypted with HDCP (high-band width digital-content protection). Your new projector ships standard with decryption codes so you can enjoy these high quality, all digital images.
This projector uses the M1-DA connector, which has the following advantages:
•allows connection to a digital DVI source
•allows connection to a component source
•allows connection to an analog computer source
•carries a USB control signal, which allows you to easily update your projector’s software as enhancements become available
•has output pins that can power accessories
HDMI 1.3 connection
HDMI is a standard, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between sources, such as set-top boxes, DVD players, and receivers and your projector. Plug an HDMI cable into the video-out connector on the video device and into the HDMI connector on the projector. To display HDMI 1.3 with its deep color and 30-bit detail, a HDMI 1.3 source is needed. Please note the HDP410, HDP420 and HDP460 have no audio capabilities at all.
DVI connection
If your video device uses a DVI connector, plug the DVI end of an M1-DA cable into the video-out connector on the video device. This connector may be labeled “To Monitor” on the video device. Plug the M1-DA end of the cable into the M1-DA/DVIconnector on the projector.
Note that the projector has no audio capabilities, so audio signals transferred through HDMI will not be audible.
