About Remote Commander operation
• Direct the Remote Commander toward the
remote control receiver.
• The shorter the distance between the
Remote Commander and the projector is,
the wider the angle within which the
Remote Commander can control the
projector becomes.
• If there is any obstruction between the

control receiver on the projector, the
projector may not be able to receive
signals from the Remote Commander.

BPreparation
Connecting the Projector
• Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
• Use the proper cables for each connection.
• Insert the cable plugs firmly; Loose connections may reduce performance of picture signals or
cause a malfunction. When pulling out a cable, be sure to grip it by the plug, not the cable itself.
• For more information, refer also to the instruction manuals of the equipment you are connecting.
• Use a no-resistance audio cable.
Connection with a computer is explained for each input signal.

Notes for connecting this unit and the HDBaseT transmitter
• Ask a professional or Sony dealer to perform wiring. If wiring is not correct, the transmission
characteristics of the cable will not be achieved, and image or sound may break up or you
may experience unstable performance.
• Connect the cable directly to the HDBaseT transmitter without going through a hub or router.
• Use cables that meet the following conditions.
- CAT5e or higher
- Shielded type (covering connectors)
- Straight wire connection
-Singlewire
• When installing the cables, use a cable tester, cable analyzer, or similar device to check if the
cables meet the CAT5e or higher requirement. If there is a transit connector between this unit
and the HDBaseT transmitter, include it when measuring.
• To reduce the affect of noise, install and use the cable in a manner where it is not rolled up
and it is as straight as possible.
• Install the cable away from the other cables (especially the power cable).
• When installing multiple cables, do not bind them and keep the running parallel distance as
short as possible.

• The transmittable distance of the cable is 100 m (approx. 328 feet) maximum. If it exceeds
100 m (approx. 328 feet), it may cause the image or the sound to break up, or cause a
multifunction in LAN communication. Do not use the HDBaseT transmitter beyond the
transmittable distance.
• Inquire about operation or function problems caused by other manufacturer’s devices with
the relevant manufacturer.
Connecting to network equipment
For connecting to network equipment via the HDBaseT terminal to control the projector.
• When using network features, be sure to check if “LAN Setting” is set to “via HDBaseT”
(page 33).
• Connect this unit and the HDBaseT transmitter directly without a hub or router.

cover into the hole on the bottom, then
fit the other shaft by bending the cover
slightly.
2Close the terminal cover.
Close the terminal cover until the two
tabs on the terminal cover click.
The terminal cover may not be attached
depending on the installation method, such
as due to the condition of the connected
cables or when installing the unit on the
floor. However, this has no impact on normal
use.
