Connecting an HDMI device
You should use an HDMI cable when making connection between the projector and
HDMI devices.
To connect the projector to an HDMI device:
1.
Take an HDMI cable and connect one end to the HDMI output port of the video
device.
2.
Connect the other end of the cable to the HDMI input port on the projector.
• In the unlikely event that you connect the projector 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 Color Space" on page 30
for details.
• The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is
connected. See
"Connecting audio" on page 20
for details.
Connecting a Component Video source device
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused Component
Video output jacks available:
• If so, you can continue with this procedure.
• If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.
To connect the projector to a Component Video source device:
1.
Take a Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adapter cable and connect the end with
3 RCA type connectors to the Component Video output jacks of the Video source
device. Match the color of the plugs to the color of the jacks; green to green, blue to
blue, and red to red.
2.
Connect the other end of the Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adapter cable
(with a D-Sub type connector) to the COMPUTER jack on the projector.
3.
If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker(s) in your
presentations, take a suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the
audio output jack of the device, and the other end to the AUDIO (L/R) jack of the
projector.
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display
(OSD) menus. See
"Audio Settings" on page 49
for details.
The built-in speaker will be muted when the AUDIO OUT jack is connected.
• The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is
connected. See
"Connecting audio" on page 20
for details.
• 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. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
