Connecting to Video Equipment
Using an S-video or a Composite Video
Cable (INPUT 3)
Using an S-video or a composite video cable,
a VCR, laser disc player or other video
equipment can be connected to the INPUT 3
terminals.
Notes
•The INPUT 3 (S-VIDEO) terminal uses a
video signal system in which the picture is
separated into color and luminance signals
to give a higher-quality image. To view the
higher-quality image, use a commercially
available S-video cable to connect the
INPUT 3 terminal on the projector and the
S-video output terminal on the video
equipment.

Connections and Setup
Connecting the Projector to a Computer
Connect the projector to the computer 
using an HD 15-pin VGA cable.
•Secure the cable connectors by tightening 
the screws on both sides of the plug.
 Notes
•See page 60 “Computer Compatibility 
Chart” for a list of computer signals 
compatible with the projector. Using 
computer signals other than those listed 
may cause some of the functions not to 
work.
•When connecting the projector to a 
computer using an HD 15-pin VGA cable, 
set the “Input Source” to “PC” in the “Main” 
menu, or select RGB mode by pressing the 
DVI/PC button on the remote control.
•A Macintosh adaptor may be required for 
use with some Macintosh computers. 
Contact your nearest authorized service 
center or dealer.
•Depending on the computer you are using, 
an image may not be projected unless the 
signal output setting of the computer is 
switched to the external output. Refer to the 
computer operation manual for switching 
the computer signal output settings.

Connections and Setup
Using the Adjustment Feet
Use the adjustment feet to level the projector 
when it is placed on an uneven surface or 
when the screen is slanted.
The projection can be made higher by 
adjusting the projector when it is in a location 
lower than the screen.
1Press the foot releases and lift 
the projector to the desired 
angle.
2Remove your hands from the foot 
releases. When the adjustment 
feet have locked in position, 
place the projector down.
•If the screen is at an angle, the 
adjustment feet can be used to adjust 
the angle of the image.
 Notes
•The projector is adjustable up to 
approximately 11 degrees from the standard 
position.
•When the height of the projector is adjusted, 
the image may become distorted 
(keystoned), depending on the relative 
positions of the projector and the screen. 
See page 44 for details on keystone 
correction.
 Info
•When lowering the projector, be careful not 
to catch your fingers in the area between 
the adjustment foot and the projector.
