Connecting to Video Sources

You can connect a DVD player, VCR, camcorder, laser disc player, digital camera, or any other compatible video source to your projector.

The projector supports HDTV, NTSC, PAL, and SECAM, and automatically detects the video format.

The projector can receive composite video, S-Video, and component video. You can connect one or more of these video sources at the same time.

The type of cable you use depends on whether you have composite video, S-Video, or component video.

■For composite video, use the RCA A/V cable included with the projector.

■For S-Video, use the S-Video cable supplied with your video device or obtain one from your electronics dealer.

■For component video, you’ll need a VGA-to-component video cable. You can purchase this from EPSON; see page 7. Component video connectors are usually colored green, blue, and red.

See the following illustration if you’re not sure which type of connectors you have.
