Connecting Video source devices
You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any one
of the following output sockets:
Component Video
S-Video
Video (composite)
You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the
above!connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality.
The method!you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching
terminals on both the!projector and the Video source device as described below:
Best video quality
The best available video connection method is Component Video (not to be confused
with composite Video). Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component Video
natively, so if available on your devices, this should be your connection method of
choice in preference to (composite) Video.
See “Connecting a Component Video source device” on page 20 for how to connect
the projector to a component video device.
Better video quality
The S-Video method provides a better quality analog video than standard composite
Video. If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals on your Video
source device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.
See “Connecting an S-Video source device” on page 20 for how to connect the
projector to an S-Video device.
Least video quality
Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but less
than optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the available
methods described here.
See “Connecting a composite Video source device” on page 21 for how to connect the
projector to a composite Video device.
ViewSonic Pro8400 20
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 VGA (D-Sub) to HDTV (RCA) cable, Component Video cable or a
Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor 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. If you are using the VGA (D-Sub) to HDTV (RCA) cable and the Component Video
to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor, connect the other end of the cable (with a D-Sub type
connector) to the
Computer in 1
or
Computer in 2
socket on the projector. If you
are using the Component Video Cable, connect the other end of 3RCA type
connectors to the
Y Cb/Pb Cr/Pr
sockets on the projector.
Important
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.
RGB to component adapter (ViewSonic P/N: J2552-0212-00)
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 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.
ViewSonic Pro8400 21
Important
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 Video source devices” on page 19 for
details.
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.
To connect the projector to a composite Video source 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.
Important
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
“Connecting Video source devices” on page 19 for details.
