Connect a second cable from whichever 
,1387  connector is free to one of the S-
video inputs of the next display device or projector. Continue this looping method for

If you want to use an extra video source in addition to the video source(s) connected at
,1387  or ,1387  connect either a Composite or S-Video source to ,1387  as shown in
Figure 2.19. Do not connect both types here simultaneously. NOTE: For additional video
inputs, install an optional Composite/S-Video Input Module at

The projector is set up at the factory for use in a front screen, floor mount orientation.
If your initial installation is ceiling mount or rear screen, displayed images may be
upside down and/or reversed. To correct, you must change the image orientation
from within the Preferences
menu (you may prefer to do
this before physically
installing the projector in its
final position/orientation).
In the Preferences menu,
highlight and select the

Some computers can provide 
56 serial communications (often through a plug-in
adapter or external converter) rather than the more common RS-232. RS-422
communication has differential “transmits-and-receives” and is generally better
suited for long distances than is RS-232 communication. RS-422 is not compatible
with RS-232—connecting one to the other could damage the equipment at either end.
If you wish to control the projector...
