User’s Guide CD-ROM

Carrying case

Note: To use your User’s Guide on the CD-ROM, open the folder labeled English, then open the file named UserGuide.pdf with Acrobat® Reader.® If you don’t have Acrobat Reader, open the folder labeled Acrobat Reader and install it.

2 Connect your video source

The projector has 3 video connectors, as shown below. Each one requires a different type of cable (a computer cable is included). You can connect up to 3 video devices (including a computer) and use the remote control to switch between them.

1

Check the connectors on your video equipment. If more than one connection

 

is available, choose the one that provides the best quality. (The projector

 

connectors from lowest to highest quality are Video [composite video],

 

S-Video, and Computer/Component Video.)

 

 

 

 

 

2

Make sure you have the right cable(s) for the connection(s) you want to use,

 

and the cables are long enough for your setup. If you need a cable longer

 

than the standard 6 to 10 ft, you may need a distribution amplifier.

3

Before you connect your equipment, make sure everything is turned off.

4

Connect your video equipment to the projector.
