When connecting the projector to other video sources, take the following
precautions.
This manual and the separate User's Guide use the term "video equipment" to refer to
devices such as the following that are equipped with video output ports.
Video cassette decks
Game equipment
The cable that is used to connect the video equipment to the projector varies according to
the format of the video signals that are output from the video equipment. Some types of
video equipment can also output video signals in several different formats. Generally, the
quality of the video signal can be ranked in order from left to right as follows.
Component video format > S-Video format > Composite video format
You should refer to the documentation provided with the video equipment being used to
check what types of video signal formats the equipment can output. The composite video
format is sometimes simply called "video output".
The next pages describe the connection methods that should be used for each type of
video signal that is output from video equipment.
Refer to "Appendices: Optional Accessories" in User's Guide for details on the optional
cables used.
Getting the best results when projecting movie images
This projector comes with an accessory EPSON cinema filter.
When this filter is attached to the projector and the "EPSON Cinema Filter"
command in the "Video" menu is set to "ON", images such as movie
images are automatically adjusted to the optimum tint for viewing.
For details on attaching the EPSON cinema filter and changing menu
settings ("Using the EPSON Cinema Filter" in User's Guide )

Turn off the power for both the projector and the video source before
connecting them. If the power for either device is on at the time of
connection, damage may result.
Check the shapes of the cable connectors and the device ports before
making the connections. If you try to force a connector to fit a device
port with a different shape or number of terminals, a malfunction or
damage to the connector or port may result.
If you select either port when image signals are being input from both
the Video port and the S-Video port, unevenness may appear. Turn off
the power for the video source that is not projected.
