Composite RCA Component video

The first step for connecting video is determining what type of output connectors your video Component RCA device has. If there is more than one output, select the one with the highest quality. The best quality ranking, with 1 being the highest, is:

1.M1-DA/DVI or HDMI (both are digital inputs).

With a M1-DA to HDMI adaptor the HDP410, HDP420 and HDP460 have two HDMI inputs.

2.Component /SCART RGB video (RCAs)

3.S-video

4.Composite Video (RCA)

If your device has a VGA connector, you can use the M1-DA/DVI connector for a high-quality image. Many PC game systems have VGA connectors.

Connecting a video device

You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. Connect the audio from your video device to your stereo system to get sound. You can connect the projector to most video devices that can output video.

You cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house from a cable or satellite company; the signal must pass through a tuner first. Examples of tuners are digital cable boxes, VCRs, digital video recorders, and satellite TV boxes. Basically, any device that can change channels is considered a tuner.

A composite video cable is provided with your projector so you can quickly and easily connect a video source to the projector and see the amazing image that is displayed. Once you have determined a more permanent location for your projector, we recommend purchasing higher quality cables in the proper length to get the best image from your particular video equipment.
