Playing Sound Through The Projector - ViewSonic PJD7383 User Manual

Connecting a composite Video source device
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused composite 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 composite Video source device:
1. Take a Video cable and connect one end to the composite Video output socket of the
Video source device.
2. Connect the other end of the Video cable to the 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.
• You need only connect to this device using a composite Video connection if Component
Video and S-Video inputs are unavailable for use. See
on page 17

Playing sound through the projector

You can make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker in your presentations, and also
connect separate amplified speakers to the AUDIO OUT socket of the projector.
If you have a separate sound system, you will most likely want to connect the audio output
of your Video source device to that sound system, instead of to the mono audio projector.
You can also use a microphone to output the sound through the projector speaker.
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display (OSD)
menus. See "Audio Settings" on page 66
The table below describes the connection methods for different devices, and where the
sound is from.

The selected input signal determines which sound will be played by the projector speaker,
and which sound will be output from the projector when AUDIO OUT is connected. If you
select a PC signal, the projector can play the sound received from AUDIO IN 1/MIC.
About the microphone input
• If you wish to use a microphone, connect a 3.5 mini jack cable microphone to the
projector.
• You can use a wireless microphone as long as a wireless module is attached to the
projector's microphone input jack and it works well with the associated devices. To
