Notes on connections

BRead the instruction manual for each peripheral device carefully before connecting it.

BTurn off the power supply for all peripheral devices before making any connections.

BIf the cables necessary for connection are not included with the peripheral device or available as an option, you may need to prepare a proper cable for the device concerned.

BIf there is a lot of jitter in the video signal, the projected image may flicker. In such cases, it will be necessary to connect a TBC (time base corrector).

BRefer to the list on page 62 for details on compatible signals which can be input to the projector.

BOnly one audio system circuit is available for the AUDIO IN L-R connectors, so if you change the audio input source, you will need to remove and insert the appropriate plugs.
