Connecting to a Video Source

A/V cable
The projector supports NTSC, PAL and SECAM video formats. By
default, it automatically detects and identifies the video format.
However, you can set it to detect a single broadcast format. (See
“Video menu” in Chapter 3.) Note that the projector will then be
able to detect only one type of video signal.
The type of cable you need to connect the video source to the projec-
tor depends on whether you have composite video or S-Video. For
composite video, use the video/audio cable supplied with the projec-
tor. For S-Video, use the S-Video cable and audio cable supplied with
your video device or obtain one from your computer dealer.
1. Switch of f the projector and video source if they are on.
2.
If your composite video uses an RCA-type composite video
connector, you will need the audio/video cable supplied with the
EMP-7100/5100. If your video uses a large S-Video connector,
you will need to provide YOUR OWN S-Video cable or use the S-
Video cable that came with your video source.
3. For composite video, connect the yellow RCA plug at one end of
the video/audio cable to the projector’s Video In jack. Connect
the other yellow RCA plug to the video-out jack on the video
source. (The red and white plugs carry audio signals. For infor-
mation about audio, see page 17.)
