Connecting Video source devices

You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the

above connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality.

The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching

terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described below:

Connecting an HDMI source device

The projector provides an HDMI input jack that allows you to connect it to an HDMI

source device like a DVD player, a DTV tuner, a display or a notebook computer.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) supports uncompressed video data

transmission between compatible devices like DTV tuners, DVD players and displays

over a single cable. It provides pure digital viewing and listening experience.
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused HDMI 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 an HDMI source device:

1.

Take an HDMI cable and connect one end to the HDMI output jack of the HDMI
source device.

2.

Connect the other end of the cable to the HDMI signal input jack on the
projector. Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-
Screen Display (OSD) menus. See

"Audio Setup" on page 48

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.
