Setting up the LitePro 580

Connecting video equipment

When connecting your VCR, camcorder, laser disc player, or other video source, use the A/V cable included with the projector and the LitePro 580’s ports marked “Video.”

The projector also accommodates higher quality S-Video signals. A round, four-pin connector S-Video cable is not included with the projector but is usually supplied with your video equipment. If both video inputs are connected, the S-video input has priority. Use S- Video connections when your video equipment is within a few feet of the projector. With the S-Video connection, the greater the distance between the video source and the projector, the more the signal will degrade.

The projector automatically detects the broadcast signal of the video input and accommodates the major broadcast systems: NTSC, PAL and SECAM. The projector also allows you to lock the projector to a specific broadcast system signal. (See “Video Mode” on page 27.) However, if the video signal does not match the locked broadcasting system, the projector won’t reproduce the video image properly.

Connect your video equipment’s audio output to the “Audio In” ports of either the Video source or the Computer source. If two audio inputs are connected at the same time, you can use the Audio menu to lock the projector to either of the two inputs. (See “Audio Source” on page 29.)
