Connecting A Composite Video Source Device; Playing Sound Through The Projector - ViewSonic PJD7828HDL User Manual

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.
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.
The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is
connected. See "Connecting audio" on page 19
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

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.
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.
The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is
connected. See "Connecting audio" on page 19
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
19 for details.

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 when the
SYSTEM SETTING: ADVANCED > Audio Settings > Audio In 2 menu is set to
Microphone. See
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display (OSD)
menus. See "Adjusting the sound" on page 39
