Connections with Typical Video Equipment

This product can project the video from a wide variety of video equipment includ-
ing video decks, television, and video cameras, etc.
Using RCA Jacks
• Connect to the projector's VIDEO IN connector using a commercially-available
video cable.
The factory default input setting of the VIDEO IN connector is set to Auto; how-
•
ever, if there is no projection, change the input setting with
Input ▶ Video. See "Input" for details. See Page E-74.
Using S-Video Connectors
• Connect to the projector's S-VIDEO IN connector using a commercially-available
S-video cable.
The factory default input setting of the S-VIDEO IN connector is set to Auto;
•
however, if there is no projection, change the input setting with
Menu ▶ Input ▶ S-Video. See "Input" for details. See Page E-74.

Technical Point
What is a RCA Connector,
and a S-Connector?
Several types of connectors are used as video connectors
including composite video connectors, separate video con-
nectors, and component video connectors.
Composite video connectors are usually called pin jacks or
RCA jacks, and they are mainly included on video decks,
▶
document cameras, etc.
Separate video connectors are most typically called S-video,
and because they take the form of mini DIN 4-pin connec-
tors, mini DIN 4-pin may also be used to describe S-video.
Component video connectors are called color-difference
input connectors. The usual NTSC (480i) signal connector
that transfers the C color signal which is divided into the B-Y
color-difference signal Cb (Pb), and the R-Y color-difference
signal Cr (Pr) is described as Y/Cb/Cr. Connectors that can
Advanced
be used for video formats above NTSC may be described as
Y/Pb/Pr.
Technical Point
What is a ferrite core?
These are accessories that are used to reduce the radiated
noise from the interface cables of digital equipment and
other devices. When a high frequency current that is the
source of noise flows in a cable, it will generate a magnetic
field and noise will be emitted. The ferrite core absorbs this
S-VIDEO
and converts it to heat which is radiated. Attaching a ferrite
core will reduce the deterioration of the picture.
