Basic connections
This projector can be connected with various devices such as a VCR, video camera, videodisc player, and personal
computer that have analog RGB output connectors.
Important:
• Make sure that the connected device is turned off before starting connection.
• Plug in the projector and the connected devices firmly, and unplug them by holding and pulling out their
power plugs, not by pulling the power cords.
• When the projector and the connected devices are located too close to each other, the projected image may be
affected by their interference.
• See the owner’s guide of each device for details about their connections.
Projector + AV device
Important:
• Connect the video and audio plugs of the AV cable to the proper terminals matching their colors respectively.
• When the connected AV device uses a BNC connector for its video output, connect it to the VIDEO 1 (BNC)
terminal. When both the VIDEO 1 (BNC) terminal and the VIDEO 2 (RCA) terminal are engaged at the same
time, the image supplied to the VIDEO 2 (RCA) terminal takes priority.
• When the connected AV device uses a BNC connector for its S-video output, connect it to the VIDEO 2
(Y,C)(BNC) terminal. When both the VIDEO 2 (Y,C) (BNC) terminal and the S-VIDEO 2 terminal are engaged
at the same time, the image supplied to the S-VIDEO 2 terminal takes priority.
