Connecting to Projector from DVD or VCR
As with all output devices, make certain to connect according to the following color scheme: yellow to yellow (video), red to red (audio), and white to white (audio).

Connecting DVD or VCR to Ceiling-Mounted Projectors
If you have a ceiling-mounted projector in your classroom, you should have a/v cords coming down from your ceiling near your computer station. One is larger and is for video output for the player (DVD or VHS). The other two cords are connected to one another and are the left and right audio connections. You will need to disconnect (and not use) the cords that come with the player from the Media Center. (But don't forget to reconnect them when you return the player to the Media Center!) Refer to pictures and instructions above for connecting the cords to the player. If you do not have these cords coming from your ceiling and you would like to utilize the projector for viewing, please ask for assistance from a Media Specialist. |

Cleaning Projector Filter |
|
 |
| Filter Location on Projector |
|
In order to clean the filter on your projector, you will need a ladder. The Media Center has a ladder that can be utilized for this task. Once you locate the filter and remove it, you can either spray the dust off with an air can, vacuum it with a small vacuum cleaner, or simply tap the filter on the side of a trash can. Your projector may need to be reset if it has provided a reminder to clean the filter. You will access this reset through the menu function on the projector. |
