Projector + AV device

Important:

•Connect the video and audio plugs of the AV cable to the proper terminals matching their colors respectively.

•When the connected AV device uses a BNC connector for its video output, connect it to the VIDEO 1 (BNC) terminal. When both the VIDEO 1 (BNC) terminal and the VIDEO 2 (RCA) terminal are engaged at the same time, the image supplied to the VIDEO 2 (RCA) terminal takes priority.

•When the connected AV device uses a BNC connector for its S-video output, connect it to the VIDEO 2 (Y,C)(BNC) terminal. When both the VIDEO 2 (Y,C) (BNC) terminal and the S-VIDEO 2 terminal are engaged at the same time, the image supplied to the S-VIDEO 2 terminal takes priority.
