Displaying a TV signal
NOTE: If needed, you can pur-
chase longer cables at your local
electronics store.
Determine the cables you’ll need (refer to the table on page 10 if
necessary). This depends on what type of output is coming from
the tuner (remember, 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.) Also, determine if you
want the sound to come out of the projector or out of your own
audio system. You can connect the audio directly to the projector
to get sound from the 3-watt onboard speaker, or you can con-
nect it to your stereo’s receiver to get sound from your own
speakers.
