Connecting An S-Video Source Device - BenQ MP721 - XGA DLP Projector 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.
To connect the projector to an S-Video source device:
1. Take the (optional accessory) 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.
3. If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker, take a suitable audio
cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output socket of the computer,
and the other end to the Audio socket of the projector.
The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:
A/V device
• The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input
is connected. See
• 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
