Connecting a Video Player

If your video player uses a round, one-prong composite video connector, use the RCA video cable. If your video player uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, use the S-video cable. Both cables are included with the optional Compaq Multimedia Adapter.

1.Plug the RCA video cable into the video-out port on the video player and the video port on the video adapter. If you are using the S-video cable, connect it to the S-video out connector on the video player and the S-video port on the video adapter.

2.Turn on the projector first, then the video player.

3.Push the Source button on the back of the multimedia adapter to toggle and switch the projector signal from data (computer icon) to video (TV icon). The data mode receives computer inputs, and the video mode receives video input such as a TV tuner, VCR, video, or camera.

With the optional Compaq Multimedia Adapter attached, the projector is compatible with major video standards such as NTSC, PAL, and SECAM. Use the on-screen menu to adjust the video performance manually, or press the Resync button on the projector panel to optimize it automatically.
