See page 23. ■ For S-video, use the S-video cable supplied with your video device or order one from Epson. See page 24. ■ For RGB video, use the VGA computer cable included with the projector. See page 25. ■ For component video, you'll need the optional Epson component video cable. See page 26. After connecting your video device to the projector, you may want to connect an audio cable to play sound from your video equipment through the projector's built-in speaker.
