About HDBaseT™ connection

  • HDBaseT is a technology to transmit image, sound, ethernet or serial control signal using a LAN cable.
    • LAN or HDBaseT input port can be selected as ethernet signal input by switching in the menu.
  • Use LAN cables of up to 100m long. Up to 70m long for 4K signal. Exceeding this length, the image and sounds are deteriorated, and even experience malfunction on LAN transmission.

NOTE • The HDMI ports of this model are compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) and therefore capable of displaying video signals from HDCP compatible DVD players or the like.

About the remote control signal

The remote control works with the projector's remote sensor.

This projector has two remote sensors on the front and back sides.

The sensors can sense signals within the following range:

60 degrees (30 degrees to the left and right of the sensor) within about 3 meters.

3m 30° 30° 30° 30° 3m (approx.)

NOTE • You can deactivate one of the sensors using the REMOTE RECEIV. item in the SERVICE menu of the OPTION menu (99).

- The remote control signal reflected in the screen may be available. If it is difficult to send the signal to the sensor directly, try to make the signal reflect.

- The remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 LED). Use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control's signal to the projector.

- The remote control may not work correctly if strong light (such as direct sun light) or light from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter fl fluorescent lamp) shines on the remote sensor of the projector. Adjust the position of projector avoiding those lights.
