Setting up
Connecting your devices (continued)
• Be sure to read the manuals for devices before connecting them to the projector,
and make sure that all the devices are suitable to be connected with this product.
• Before connecting to a PC, check the signal level, the signal timing, and the resolution.
- Be sure to consult to the administrator of the network. Do not connect LAN port to any
network that might have excessive voltage.
- Some signal may need an adapter to input this projector.
- Some PCs have multiple screen display modes that may include some signals which
are not supported by this projector.
-
Although the projector can display signals with resolution up to UXGA (1600X1200), the signal will be
converted to the projector’s panel resolution before being displayed. The best display performance
will be achieved if the resolutions of the input signal and the projector panel are identical.
• While connecting, make sure that the shape of the cable's connector ts the port to
connect with. And be sure to tighten the screws on connectors with screws.
• When connecting a laptop PC to the projector, be sure to activate the PC’s external
RGB output. (Set the laptop PC to CRT display or to simultaneous LCD and CRT
display.) For details on how this is done, please refer to the instruction manual of the
corresponding laptop PC.
• When the picture resolution is changed on a computer depending on an input,
automatic adjustment function may take some time and may not be completed. In this
case, you may not be able to see a check box to select “Yes/No” for the new resolution
on Windows. Then the resolution will go back to the original. It might be recommended
to use other CRT or LCD monitors to change the resolution.
• In some cases, this projector may not display a proper picture or display any picture on
screen. For example, automatic adjustment may not function correctly with some input
signals. An input signal of composite sync or sync on G may confuse this projector, so
the projector may not display a proper picture.
•
The HDMI and DVI-D ports of this model are compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) and therefore capable of displaying a video signal from HDCP compatible DVD players or the like.
NOTE
About Plug-and-Play capability
Plug-and-Play is a system composed of a computer, its operating system and peripheral
equipment (i.e. display devices). This projector is VESA DDC 2B compatible. Plug-and-
Play can be used by connecting this projector to a computer that is VESA DDC (display
data channel) compatible.
•
Take advantage of this feature by connecting an RGB cable to the COMPUTER IN1 port
(DDC 2B compatible). Plug-and-Play may not work properly if any other type of connection is
attempted.
• Please use the standard drivers in your computer as this projector is a Plug-and-Play monitor.
NOTE for HDMI
• The HDMI supports the following signals.
-
Video signal : 480i@60,480p@60,576i@50, 576p@50,720p@50/60,1080i@50/60,
1080p@50/60
-PC signals : See User’s Manual (detailed) Technical
• This projector can be connected with another equipment that has HDMI or DVI
connector, but with some equipment the projector may not work properly, something like
no video.
• Be sure to use an HDMI cable that has the HDMI logo.
•
When the projector is connected with a device having DVI connector, use a DVI to HDMI cable
to connect with the HDMI input.
