Connecting Video source devices

You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any one of the following output sockets:

Component Video

S-Video

Video (composite)

You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the above connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality. The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described below:

Best video quality

The best available video connection method is Component Video (not to be confused with composite Video). Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component Video natively, so if available on your devices, this should be your connection method of choice in preference to (composite) Video.

See "Connecting a Component Video source device" on page 23 for how to connect the projector to a component video device.

Better video quality

The S-Video method provides a better quality analog video than standard composite Video. If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals on your Video source device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.

See "Connecting an S-Video source device" on page 24 for how to connect the projector to an S-Video device.

Least video quality

Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but less than optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the available methods described here.

See "Connecting a composite Video source device" on page 25 for how to connect the projector to a composite Video device.

Connecting Audio

The projector has a built-in mono speaker which is designed to provide basic audio functionality accompanying data presentations for business purposes only. It is not designed for, nor intended for stereo audio reproduction use as might be expected in home theatre or home cinema applications. Any stereo audio input (if provided), is mixed into a common mono audio output through the projector speaker.

If you have a separate sound system, you will most likely want to connect the audio output of your Video source device to that sound system, instead of to the mono audio projector. The audio connections illustrated in the following sections are provided for informational purposes only. You need not connect audio to the projector if there is an alternate sound system available, or if audio is not required.
