The image should be projected onto a flat surface screen with high reflectivity to get a bright and undistorted image. -
Page 14: Selecting Additional Adapters And Cables
USER GUIDE SELECTING ADDITIONAL ADAPTERS AND CABLES The projector is compatible with a wide variety of computer and video sources, utilizing many different connectors. To be able to connect to these various sources, a set of cables and cable adapters are provided. 6.3.1 FOR YOUR COMPUTER SOURCE The projector is supplied with one VGA type and one BNC type cable. -
Page 15: For Your Mouse
USER GUIDE S-video is connected using an optional cable. S-video can potentially provide better video quality, as the color and luminance signals are separate. Composite video, where the two signals are superimposed, yields less resolution in image detail. For RGB video, use the VGA or BNC cable. RGB should potentially yield the best video signals, since the primary colors are completely separate. -

USER GUIDE WIRING Ceiling mounted projectors require long signal and power wires. The signals should be wired using high quality coaxial cable. The cables usually need to be customized. Some vendors have specialized in this field. Contact your dealer for further detail. If the signal cables run over a longer distance from the source to the projector, a line buffer (distribution amplifier) may be needed (available from third party vendors). -
