Connecting A Component Video Source Device - ViewSonic VS13339VS13340 User Manual

Connecting a Component Video source device

Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused Component Video
output sockets available:
• If so, you can continue with this procedure.
• If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.
To connect the projector to a Component Video source device:
1. Take a Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable and connect the end with 3
RCA type connectors to the Component Video output sockets of the Video source
device. Match the color of the plugs to the color of the sockets; green to green, blue to
blue, and red to red.
2. Connect the other end of the Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable (with a
D-Sub type connector) to the COMPUTER IN 1 or COMPUTER IN 2 socket on the
projector.
• If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct
video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and
operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.

Connecting an S-Video source device
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has an unused S-Video output socket
available:
• If so, you can continue with this procedure.
• If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.
To connect the projector to an S-Video source device:
1. Take an S-Video cable and connect one end to the S-Video output socket of the Video
source device.
2. Connect the other end of the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO socket on the projector.
• If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct
video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and
operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
• If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and this
S-Video source device using Component Video connections, you need not connect to this
device using an S-Video connection as this makes an unnecessary second connection of
poorer picture quality. See
