Connecting to an HDMI Video Source
If your video source has an HDMI port, you can connect it to the projector using an optional HDMI cable. The HDMI connection provides the best image quality.Caution:
Do not turn on the video source before connecting it to the projector. Doing so could damage the projector.Note: When projecting images with 4K Enhancement at 60Hz, use an HDMI 2.1 rated cable (ultra-high speed). If you use an incompatible cable, images may not be displayed correctly. You can try correcting the images by changing the EDID setting in the projector's Signal menu.
- Connect the HDMI cable to your video source's HDMI output port.
- Connect the other end to the projector's HDMI port.
Note: The projector converts the digital audio signal sent from your video source into a mono analog signal for the internal speaker or a stereo analog signal if you are connecting to external speakers.
Note: If you connected a game console, it may take a few seconds for your image to appear when you switch to the game console's input source. To reduce the potential lag in response time to game commands, set your game console's output format to a progressive signal of 480p, 720p, or higher. See your game console documentation for instructions.
You can also select the Fast Image Processing setting to reduce lag time.
Note: When an audio/video source that meets the HDMI CEC standard is connected to the projector's HDMI port, you can use the projector's remote control to control certain features of the linked device by turning on the HDMI Link setting in the Settings menu.
Note: If you have problems hearing audio through the HDMI connection, make sure the Audio Out Device setting in the Settings menu is set correctly.
