Connecting To Video Sources - Epson PowerLite 505c User Manual

Connecting to Video Sources

You can connect a DVD player, VCR, camcorder, laser disc player,
digital camera, or any other compatible video source to your projector.
The projector supports HDTV, NTSC, PAL, and SECAM, and
automatically detects the video format.
The projector can receive composite video, S-Video, and component
video. You can connect the projector to one or two of these video
sources at the same time; however, you can only use audio from one
source at a time.
The type of cable you use depends on whether you have composite
video, S-Video, or component video.
For composite video, use the RCA AV cable included with the
projector.
For component video, you will need the optional EPSON
component video cable (D-sub 15-pin to 3BNC, ELPKC19).
For S-Video, use the S-Video cable supplied with your video
device or obtain one from your electronics dealer.
See the following illustration if you're unsure of which type of
connectors you have.

If more than one type of connector is available, S-video and
