distances for a given screen size.

Connecting a Video Device
You can connect VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video games, HDTV receivers, and TV
tuners to the projector. (You cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house from a cable or
satellite company; the signal must pass through a tuner first. Examples of tuners are digital cable boxes,
VCRs, digital video recorders, and satellite TV boxes. Basically, any device that can change channels is
considered a tuner.) Audio must be provided by your own speakers, as the projector has no separate audio
controls. If
there is more
than one
output, select
the highest
quality one.
