  • Page 22: Connection

    Video signals containing too much jitter may cause the images on the screen to randomly wobble or wafture. In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected. The projector accepts the following signals: video, S-Video, analogue RGB and digital signals from the PC. Some PC models cannot be connected to the projector.
  • Page 23: Example Of Connecting With Video Devices

    • When connecting with a video deck, be sure to use the one with a built-in time base corrector (TBC) or use a TBC between the projector and the video deck. • If nonstandard burst signals are connected, the image may be distorted. If this is the case, connect a TBC between the projector and the video deck.
  • Page 24: Example Of Connecting With Personal Computers

    Connection Example of connecting with personal computers S-VIDEO S-VIDEO Attention • When the main power of the main unit is turned off, also turn off the power of the PC. Note • For the specifications of the RGB signals that can be applied from the PC, see the data sheet on page 104.
  • Page 25: Example Of Connecting With The Signal Selector

    • When multiple signals of the same type are switched and input to RGB1 IN (for example, when switching multiple high-vision signals for usage), use a dedicated signal selector.
