Connecting a Component Video Source
1.
Look at the connectors at one end of your component video cable.
If they are bayonet (BNC) connectors, go on to step 2. If they are
RCA connectors, you’ll need to attach commercially available
BNC adapters to plug the cable into your projector, then
continue with step 2.
2.
Connect the cable to your player and the BNC connectors on the
projector. Match the Y/Cb/Cr (or Y/Pb/Pr) connectors on your
player to the corresponding connectors on the projector.
3.
You may need to change the
Input Signal
setting in the
projector’s Signal menu to
Component
(see page 59).
4.
When you’ve finished making any connections, see page 23 for
instructions on turning on the projector and Chapter 2 for
instructions on displaying and adjusting the image.
note
If the component video cable
was not provided with your
video device, you can
purchase one from an
electronics dealer.
note
Be sure your video player is
not an RGB video source.
If you select the wrong
source, image quality may
suffer. Check your video
player’s documentation.
Also, make sure the Input
Signal setting in the Signal
menu is set to
Auto
or
Component
(see page 59).
note
If you have a
component-to-VGA video
cable, you can use it to
connect a component video
source. Connect the VGA
connector to the projector’s
Computer1
port, then
connect the other end of the
cable to your player.
