Connecting to HDMI devices Use an HDMI cable to establish a connection between the projector and HDMI device. 1. Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI output jack on the video device. 2. Connect the other end of the cable to the HDMI signal input jack on the projector. In the unlikely event that the projector is connected to a DVD player via the projector's HDMI input and the projected picture displays wrong colors, please change the color space to YUV. See "Changing HDMI input settings" for details. To connect the projector to a Component Video source device: Examine your Video source device to determine if a set of unused Component Video output sockets is available: • If so, you can continue with this procedure. • If not, you will need to reassess which method to use to connect to the device. 1. Take a VGA (D-Sub) Component adapter cable and connect the end with 3 RCA type connectors to the Component Video output sockets of the Video source device. Match the color of the plugs to the color of the sockets; green to green, blue to blue, and red to red. 2. Connect the end of the VGA (D-Sub) Component adapter cable (with the D-Sub type connector) to the COMPUTER IN1/IN2 jack on the projector. If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and operating correctly. You must also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly. To connect the projector to a S-Video source device: Examine your Video source device to determine if an unused S-Video output socket is available: • If so, you can continue with this procedure. • If not, you will need to reassess which method to use to connect to the device. 1. Take an S-Video cable and connect one end to the S-Video output socket of the Video source device. 2. Connect the other end of the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO socket on the projector. If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and operating correctly. You must also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly. If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and this S-Video source device using Component Video connections, an S-Video connection will not be required as this is an unnecessary second connection of poorer picture quality. See "Connecting to Video source devices" for details. 17

Connecting to HDMI devices
Use an HDMI cable to establish a connection between the projector and HDMI device.
1.
Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI output jack on the video device.
2.
Connect the other end of the cable to the HDMI signal input jack on the projector.
In the unlikely event that the projector is connected to a DVD player via the projector’s HDMI
input and the projected picture displays wrong colors, please change the color space to YUV.
See
“Changing HDMI input settings”
for details.
To connect the projector to a Component Video source
device:
Examine your Video source device to determine if a set of unused Component Video
output sockets is available:
If so, you can continue with this procedure.
If not, you will need to reassess which method to use to connect to the device.
1.
Take a VGA (D-Sub) Component adapter cable and connect the end with 3 RCA
type connectors to the Component Video output sockets of the Video source device.
Match the color of the plugs to the color of the sockets; green to green, blue to blue,
and red to red.
2.
Connect the end of the VGA (D-Sub) Component adapter cable (with the D-Sub type
connector) to the COMPUTER IN1/IN2 jack on the projector.
If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct
video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and operating
correctly. You must also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
To connect the projector to a S-Video source device:
Examine your Video source device to determine if an unused S-Video output socket is
available:
If so, you can continue with this procedure.
If not, you will need to reassess which method to use to connect to the device.
1.
Take an S-Video cable and connect one end to the S-Video output socket of the
Video source device.
2.
Connect the other end of the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO socket on the projector.
If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct
video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and operating
correctly. You must also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and this
S-Video source device using Component Video connections, an S-Video connection will not be
required as this is an unnecessary second connection of poorer picture quality. See
“Connecting to Video source devices”
for details.
