There are four jacks on the right front side
behind the screen on your projection TV that
make connecting Audio/Video devices like
video games and camcorders very simple.
The jacks are like those found on the back jack
connection panel. This means that most equip-
ment that connects to those types of jacks on
the rear jackpack, may be connected to the
front connection panel (Video3).
To use the front jacks as the signal source,
select them using Main Source menu as
described on page 33. They will be named
“Video 3” in the Main Source menu.

ious types of equipment.
