You can connect the projector to an S-Video source, a composite video source, and a component video source at the same time. However, the projector automatically selects the S-Video as the video source.
The projector supports HDTV, NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video formats, and automatically detects and identifies the video format. However, you can specify that a single broadcast format be detected. (See Chapter 3.) Note that the projector will then be able to detect only one type of video signal.
The type of cable you use to connect the video source to the projector depends on whether you have composite video, S-Video, or component video. For composite video, use the RCA audio and RCA video cable supplied with the projector. For S-Video, use the S-Video cable supplied with your video device or obtain one from your computer or video equipment dealer. For component video, use the BNC type cable that came with your video source. The illustration below shows the S-Video, component, and composite connectors.
