11 Connecting a video device You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. Note: This projector does not support audio. You must connect audio directly from your source to a stereo or home theater system. You can connect the projector to most video devices that can output video. You cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house from a cable or satellite company; the signal must pass through a tuner first. Examples of tuners are digital cable boxes, VCRs, digital video recorders, and satellite TV boxes. Basically, any device that can change channels is considered a tuner. Although the aspect ratio is automatically selected by the projector based on the signal input, you can change the aspect ratio, if desired. The projector’s Aspect Ratio setting is accessed through the Aspect button on the remote or through the projector’s Picture Menu. See page 25 for more information. Video device connections No video cables are provided with the projector. You can order cables from InFocus or use your own. HDMI 1.3 connection HDMI is a standard, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between sources, such as set-top boxes, DVD players, and receivers and your projector. Plug an HDMI cable into the video out connector on the video device and into the HDMI connector on the projector. To take advantage of HDMI 1.3 Deep Color (30 bit) you must have a 1.3-compatible source. 3G-SDI Connect a BNC coaxial cable into the video device. Plug the other end of the cable into the SDI In connector on the projector. Component video connection Plug a BNC type component cable into the video device. Plug the other end of the component cable into the YPbPr connectors as appropriate. In addition, a Component to VGA adapter can be used in conjunction with the VGA connectors. Plug the component cable into the video device. Plug the other end of the component cable into the adapter and plug the adapter into the RGB connector. Component offers the highest quality analog video output. S-video connection If your video device uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, plug an S-video cable into the S-video connector on your video device and into the S-video connector on the projector. S-video delivers higher quality video output than composite. Composite video connection Plug the composite video cable’s yellow connector into the video out connector on the video device. Plug the other yellow connector into the yellow Video connector on the projector. Composite Video output from composite connections is not as high quality as S- video or as Component. RGB (VGA) connection If your video device has a 15-pin VGA output, plug one end of the included computer cable into the VGA connector on your video source. Plug the computer cable into the RGB connector on the projector. 3G-SDI Out Connect one end of a BNC coaxial cable into the SDI Out connector on the projector and the other end into another projector to daisy-chain the projectors.
