Select HDMI as the input source.

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), developed by Intel Corporation, is a method to encrypt digital video data for the purpose of copy protection.

• HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is fully backward compatible with computers, displays and consumer electronics devices incorporating the DVI standards.

This projector can be linked with video devices equipped with HDMI output terminal. However, with some of them, this projector may not display any image or not operate correctly.

If this projector doesn’t display any image or not operate correctly, see the operation manual of the video device for its connection.

When you use the video equipment other than HDMI conformity product, the image may not be projected properly.

Use of a long cable may decrease the quality of projected images.
