1.Take a DVI-D cable and connect one end to the DVI-D output port of the video device.

2.Connect the other end of the cable to the DVI-Dinput port on the projector.

3.If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speakers in your presentations, take a suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output jack of the device, and the other end to the AUDIO or AUDIO (L/R) jack of the projector.

4.If you wish and the AUDIO OUT jack is available on your projector, you can use another suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the AUDIO OUT jack of the projector, and the other end to your external speakers (not supplied).

Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display (OSD) menus. See "Audio Settings" on page 51 for details.

• The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is connected. See "Connecting audio" on page 21 for details.

Connecting a Component Video source device

Examine your video source device to determine if it has a set of unused Component Video output jacks 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 Component Video source device:

1.Take a Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adapter cable or Component Video cable and connect the end with 3 RCA type connectors to the Component Video output jacks of the video source device. Match the color of the plugs to the color of the jacks; green to green, blue to blue, and red to red.

2.Connect the other end of the Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adapter cable (with a D-Sub type connector) to the COMPUTER jack on the projector.

3.If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speakers in your presentations, take a suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output jack of the device, and the other end to the AUDIO or AUDIO (L/R) jack of the projector.

4.If you wish and the AUDIO OUT jack is available on your projector, you can use another suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the AUDIO OUT jack of the projector, and the other end to your external speakers (not supplied).

Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display (OSD) menus. See "Audio Settings" on page 51 for details.

• The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is connected. See "Connecting audio" on page 21 for details.

If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct video source has been selected, check that the video source device is turned on and operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
