Sharp XG Series Projector Configuration (RS-232)
Verify that the System 8/10 Plus is already configured for the Sharp XG Series
projector by following the procedure and switch settings below. The general
setup is explained on page 3-4 of your System 8/10 Plus User’s Manual.
1. Use a small screwdriver to remove the access cover from the System 8/10 Plus
front panel. Refer to page 3-3 of the User’s Manual.
_________ Before changing anything, remove the AC power cord to the System 8/10 Plus
and also turn the projector’s power OFF.
2. Set the System 8/10 Plus switches as follows:
Config Model Rotary Switches Cable SW15 Settings Comm
as RS1 RS2 RS3 RS4 J2/J3 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Adapter
4Sharp XG (RS-232) 0 0 F 9 J2 ↓↓ ↑ ↓↑↓ ↓ ↓ ¯↑↓ 26-467-01
3. Locate the switcher’s Address DIP switches on the rear panel, lower right.
Unless this is part of a master/slave system, set #3 and #5 to the up position and
the others in the down position. See illustration on the left.
4. Use the illustration on the following page and continue with the steps below.
5. Connect the BNC cables from the System 8/10 Plus outputs to the projector
inputs according to the application requirements (RGBS, S-Video or Composite
Video).
________ The projector’s RGB BNC input will not accept rates lower than VGA or higher
than XGA. Please refer to your projector user manual.
________ Some Sharp projectors will only select S-Video when connected to an S-Video
source. You should not input S-Video and Composite Video sources
simultaneously on these models. Consult your Sharp manual to determine if
your model supports CVID and SVID simultaneously.
6. Apply Main Power to the System 8/10 Plus by connecting the power cord. The
Main Power LED should light. Apply power to the projector.
7. Installation is now completed.

System 8/10 Plus to Sharp XG Series Projector Connections (RS-232)
Use the illustration below as a guide when connecting the System 8/10 Plus to a
Sharp projector. Refer to Sharp documentation to continue the installation.
________ Important note! For Sharp projectors which do not allow simultaneous
connections to S-Video and Composite Video (see last note on previous page),
please refer to the following diagram where either S-Video or Composite Video
may be connected, but not both at the same time. For those Sharp projectors
which will allow you to connect to S-Video and Composite Video sources
simultaneously - please refer to the inset diagram below.
________ When RS-232 control of the projector is used, the projector’s IR remote can be
used. However, because the projector’s IR remote does not communicate with
the System 8/10 Plus switcher, the projector and switcher can become out-of-
sync if the projector’s IR remote is used to change the projector’s input, picture
mute or power settings. Should this occur, press the power, mute or channel
buttons on the switcher to allow the projector and switcher to resynchronize.
________ If the installation includes looping (master/slave) switchers, see Chapter 5 of the
System 8/10 Plus User’s Manual.
________ If Video Loop Back is part of the installation, refer to pages 2-10 and 2-11.
