When connecting to equipment with HDMI output teminal (INPUT6)

HDMI is a new specialized interface capable of delivering a video and audio signal to the terminal using just one cable. Since this projector does not support an audio signal by itself, use an amplifier or other audio device.

For video connection, use a cable that conforms to HDMI standards. Using cables that do not conform to HDMI standards may result in a malfunction.

Note

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital AV interface that can deliver a high-defini- tion video signal, multi-channel audio signal, and bi-directional control signal all in just one cable.

Because it is compatible with the HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) system, the digital video signal does not degrade when transmitted, and a high-quality image with a simple connection can be enjoyed.

When a DVI to HDMI conversion cable is connected to the HDMI terminal, a proper picture may not be displayable.
