Connecting the Audio Cable
1. If you will be using audio, connect one end of the audio 
cable to the Audio 1 jack on the projector. (Use the Audio 
2 jack if you are connecting a second computer.)   
2. Connect the other end of the audio cable to the audio-out 
port on your computer. 
Connecting to a PowerBook 
Your PowerBook must have video-out capability in order to 
connect to the projector. 
To connect the projector to your PowerBook, you need to:
• Connect the computer cable
• Connect the mouse and/or serial cable (if you want to use 
the remote control as a mouse or use the ELP Link IV 
software)
• Connect the audio cable (if you’ll be projecting with audio)

Follow the steps in each section for the cables you need to 
connect. Before beginning, turn off the projector and 
computer if they are on.
¨
Note: PowerBook configurations vary, so the location of your 
computer’s ports may not match the illustrations. See your 
PowerBook manual for the port locations if necessary.
Connecting the Computer Cable
First connect the computer cable. Refer to this illustration as 
you follow the steps below. 
¨
Note: Some new PowerBooks may allow you to connect the 
computer cable directly to the computer without using a 
video-out cable. See your PowerBook manual for additional 
information on connecting a computer cable.

1. Connect one end of the computer cable to the projector’s 
Computer 1 port. (Use the Computer 2 port if you are 
connecting a second computer.)
2. Remove the small cover on the Macintosh desktop adapter 
and set its DIP switches in accordance with the resolution 
you want to use (such as 16-inch mode). See your 
Macintosh documentation for instructions.
3. Connect the small terminal of the Macintosh desktop 
adapter to the other end of the video cable.

4. Connect the computer cable (with the Macintosh desktop 
adapter attached) to the video-out port on the 
PowerBook. 
If a video-out cable was provided with your PowerBook, 
connect the smaller end of the video-out cable to the video-
out port on the back of the PowerBook. Connect the other 
end to the Macintosh desktop adapter on the end of the 
computer cable.
Connecting the Mouse and Serial Cables
If you want to use the remote control as a mouse or use the 
ELP Link IV software, you need to connect the main cable. It 
provides connectors for:
• The Mac mouse cable or USB mouse cable (to use the 
remote control as a mouse)
• The Mac serial cable (to use the ELP Link IV software and 
the Effects buttons on the remote control)

Refer to this illustration while following the steps below. 
1. Connect the small end of the main cable to the projector’s 
Mouse/Com 1 port. (Use the Mouse/Com 2 port if you 
are connecting a second computer.)

the main cable.
3. Connect the other end of the Mac mouse cable or USB 
mouse cable to the mouse port on the back of the 
PowerBook.
4. To use the ELP Link IV software or the Effects button on 
the remote control, connect one end of the Mac serial 
cable or USB mouse cable to the MAC SERIAL terminal 
on the large end of the main cable. 
5. Connect the other end of the serial cable to the 
printer/  modem port on the back of your 
PowerBook.

Connecting the Audio Cable
1. If you will be using audio, connect one end of the audio 
cable to the Audio 1 jack on the projector. (Use the Audio 
2 jack if you are connecting a second computer.) 
2. Connect the other end of the audio cable to the audio-out 
port on your PowerBook. 
¨
Note: After you turn on the projector and computer, you’ll need 
to choose Mirroring in the Display Control Panel if you set up 
your configuration to display on the LCD screen as well as the 
projector screen.
Connecting to a High-End Workstation
The EMP-7350/7250/5350 are capable of remapping input 
resolutions up to 1280 ´ 1024 pixels. Since 1280 ´ 1024 
pixels is the default resolution for most leading workstations, 
this capability makes these projectors the best portable 
solution for the display of workstation video output.
There is no standard for workstation video output. Those 
workstations that follow the SXGA standard and use the 
HD15 connector don’t need an adapter cable. The most 
popular workstations use a 13-pin 13W3 connector, which 
requires an adapter cable. Ask your dealer.

In addition, workstations pass the sync (synchronization) 
signal differently, so the VGA-13W3 computer cable (Epson 
Recommended) has a DIP switch to control sync routing. 
Contact your dealer for information on connecting your 
workstation.
Connecting to a Video Source
You can connect a VCR, a camcorder, a laser disc player, 
DVD player, or any other compatible video image source to 
your projector.
The projector can receive composite video, S-Video, or 
component video. Your equipment has composite video if 
your video source has a one-pin RCA video jack. Your 
equipment has S-Video if your video source has a four-pin 
(mini-DIN) video jack. Your equipment has component video 
if your video source has a three-connector (Y, R-Y, B-Y) video 
jack.
¨
Note: The projector is not compatible with a cable TV-style F 
connector.
You can connect the projector to an S-Video source, a 
composite video source, and a component video source at the 
same time.
The projector supports NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video 
formats, and automatically detects and identifies the video 
format. However, you can specify that a single broadcast 
format be detected. (See Chapter 3.) Note that the projector 
will then be able to detect only one type of video signal.
The type of cable you use to connect the video source to the 
projector depends on whether you have composite video, 
S-Video, or component video. For composite video, use the 
audio/video (A/V) cable supplied with the projector. For S-
Video, use the S-Video cable supplied with your video device 
or obtain one from your computer or video equipment dealer.

For component video, use the BNC type cable that came with 
your video source. The illustration below shows the S-Video, 
component, and composite connectors.
To connect a video source to the projector:
1. Turn off the projector and video source if they are on.
2. If your video source uses a small, round, one-prong 
composite (RCA) video connector, you’ll need the audio/
video cable that comes with the projector. If your video 
source uses a large, round, four-prong S-Video connector 
or a BNC type connector, you will need to purchase the 
appropriate cable or use the cable that came with your 
video source.
3. For composite video, connect the yellow RCA plug on 
one end of the audio/video cable to the projector’s Video 
jack. Connect the other yellow RCA plug to the video-out 
jack of your video source.
