the BNC video Input
the BNC video Input
1 Connect each BNC connector of a component or video cable to the
corresponding BNC INPUT 4 or 5 terminals on the projector.
• BNC-RCA adaptors are needed for use with RCA type cables and sources.
2 Connect the other end of the cable to the corresponding terminals on a VCR
or laser disc player.
3 To use the built-in audio system, connect one end of an audio cable (sold
separately) to AUDIO INPUT 4 or 5 terminal on the projector.
4 Connect the other end to the audio output terminal on the video component.
The S-VIDEO INPUT terminal uses a video signal system in which the picture is
separated into a colour and a luminance signal to realise a higher-quality image.
When cables are connected to both the S-VIDEO INPUT 4 or 5 and VIDEO INPUT
4 or 5 terminals, images input through the S-VIDEO INPUT 4 or 5 terminal have
priority over images input through the VIDEO INPUT 4 or 5 terminal.
