Chapter 2 Getting Started — Connecting

For <SDI IN 1>/<SDI IN 2> terminals (PT‑DZ13KU, PT‑DS12KU), <SDI IN> terminal (PT‑DZ10KU)

The connection example is for PT‑DZ13KU, PT‑DS12KU.

Digital VCR for commercial use

SD-SDI signal, HD-SDI signal or 3G-SDI

signal

Note

ff Use the [PICTURE] menu → [SYSTEM SELECTOR] to switch the input format.

ff Some external devices to be connected require the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu → [SDI IN] to be set.

ff Use a 5CFB or higher (such as 5CFB, or 7CFB) or a Belden 1694A or higher connection cable to properly transmit images. Use a connection cable of 100 m (328'1") length or less.

ff To enter dual link signals, the [SDI LINK] in [SDI IN] must be set. (Only for PT‑DZ13KU, PT‑DS12KU)

ff Use the same length and same type of cables to connect <SDI IN 1>/<SDI IN 2> terminals when entering dual link signals. If there is a difference of 4 m (13'1") or greater in cable length, images may not be projected properly. (Only for PT‑DZ13KU, PT‑DS12KU)

ff To input dual link signals, connect directly without going through a distributor or other such device to the external device which outputs signals. A phase difference may occur between the LINK‑A signal and the LINK‑B signal and images may not be projected properly. (Only for PT‑DZ13KU, PT‑DS12KU)

ff When an unsteady signal is connected, an error in signal detection may occur. In such a case, use the [PICTURE] menu → [SYSTEM SELECTOR] to switch to a system that matches the signal format.

Attention

ff When connecting the projector to a computer or an external device, use the power cord supplied with each device and commercially available shielded cables.

ff Use a commercial cable with a ferrite core for connecting with the <DVI-D IN> terminal.

Note

ff When entering DVI‑D, some external devices to be connected may require switching the setting using the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu → [DVI-D IN] → [EDID].

ff For an HDMI cable, use an HDMI High Speed cable that conforms to HDMI standards. If a cable that does not conform to HDMI standards is used, images may be interrupted or may not be displayed.

ff The <HDMI IN> terminal of the projector can be connected to an external device with a DVI‑D terminal by using an HDMI/DVI conversion cable, but some devices may not project the image properly or function properly.

ff The <DVI-D IN> terminal supports single links only.

ff When entering the SYNC ON GREEN signal, do not enter sync signals to the <SYNC/HD> terminal or the <VD> terminal.

ff If you operate the projector using the computer with the resume feature (last memory), you may have to reset the resume feature to operate the projector.
