System Configuration Example
Notes on system configuration
• Turn off the power supply of each system component before
connecting any of the components.
• Read the instruction manual for each system component before
connecting it.
• If the cables necessary for connecting a component to the
system are not included with the component or available as an
option, you may need to fashion a cable to suit the component
concerned.
• If there is a lot of jitter in the video signal input from the video
source, the picture on the screen may flicker. In such cases, it
will be necessary to connect a TBC (time base corrector).
• It may not be possible to connect some types of personal
computer.
Note
• Because each Y, PB, and PR signal is input independently, the
Component signal allows for more faithful color reproduction.
• The Component signal output terminal indication will differ
according to the output device (PR, PB, Y/R-Y, B-Y, Y/Cr, Cb, Y,
etc.). Please read the operating instructions included with the
output device.
• You need to change the input signal setting on this LCD
Projector when inputting the Component signal. In this case,
please refer to “Setting of the RGB/YPBPR Input Signal
Selection”.
• D-sub15-BNC5 (female) Adaptor Cable (sold separately) often
have BNC connectors, however a DVD output device usually
has RCA jacks. In this case, you will need BNC-RCA adaptors
(not included).

turned on, the power will then automatically
go off and it will enter the standby mode.
Note
• To maintain the initial brightness and picture quality,
replace the lamp as soon as possible when the lamp
replacement display appears.
• The replacement display appears after approximately 1900
hours, as a indication that it is time for the lamp to be
replaced.
• The replacement display is, after all, only a guideline to
the time for lamp replacement and is not an assurance of
the lamp’s service life.
• The lamp could go out before the replacement display
appears, for such reasons as individual lamp
characteristics, or the usage conditions and usage
environment. We thus recommend that you keep a
replacement lamp on hand.
• Fluorescent lamps should be replaced by your retailer or
the JVC service center. A lamp replacement fee may be
charged in addition to the cost of the replacement lamp.
