Connect your video source
The projector has 5 connectors, as shown below. Each one is color-coded and requires
a different type of cable (not included). You can connect up to 5 video devices and
use the remote control to switch from one to the other.
1
Check the connectors on your video equipment. If more than one
connection is available, choose the one that provides the best quality.
For example, component video produces higher quality images than
S-video or composite video.
2
Make sure you have the right cable(s) for the connection(s) you want to use,
and the cables are long enough for your setup. If you need a cable longer
than the standard 6 to 10 feet, you may need a distribution amplifier.
