Connecting A Component Video Source Device - ViewSonic PJD5122 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.
3. If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker in your presentations,
take a suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output socket
of the device, and the other end to the AUDIO IN socket of the projector.
4. If you wish, you can use another suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable
to the AUDIO OUT socket of the projector, and the other end to your external
speakers
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display
(OSD) menus.
The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:
