Connecting to a Video Source for Sound

You can play sound through the projector's speaker system if your video source has audio output ports (PowerLite Pro G6070W/G6170/G6270W/G6470WU/G6570WU/G6770WU).
Note: If your projector does not have an internal speaker system (PowerLite Pro G6870/G6970WU), you can play sound by connecting external speakers to the projector.

If you are projecting video using the Computer or BNC ports, connect the projector to the video source using an optional stereo 3.5 mm mini-jack audio cable.

If you are projecting video using the Video or S-Video port, connect the projector to the video source using an RCA audio cable.

Note: If you connected your video source to the projector using an HDMI cable, the audio signal is transferred with the video signal; you do not need an additional cable for sound. If you connected to the projector's SDI port (PowerLite Pro G6900WU), audio output is not supported.
  1. Connect the audio cable to your video source's audio-out ports.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Connect the other end of the cable to the projector's Audio port that corresponds to the Computer or BNC port you are using for video.
    • Connect the red and white plugs on the other end of the cable to the projector's Audio L-R ports.
