Connecting example: Using DIGITAL LINK
Twisted-pair-cable transmitter based on the communication standard HDBaseT
TM
such as the optional DIGITAL
LINK output supported device (Model No.: ET-YFB100G, ET-YFB200G) uses the twisted pair cable to transmit
input images, audio, Ethernet, and serial control signal, and the projector can input such digital signal to the
<DIGITAL LINK/LAN> terminal.

*1 Control target is the projector or the twisted-pair-cable transmitter. The control itself may not be possible depending on the twisted-pair-
cable transmitter. Check the operating instructions of the device to be connected.
Attention
f Always use one of the following when connecting a VCR.
g A VCR with built-in time base corrector (TBC)
g A time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the VCR
f If nonstandard burst signals are connected, the image may be distorted. In such case, connect the time base corrector (TBC) between the
projector and the external devices.
f Ask a qualied technician or your dealer to install the cable wiring for a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector. The image may be
disrupted if cable transmission characteristics cannot be obtained due to inadequate installation.
f For the LAN cable between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, use a cable that meets the following criteria:
g Compatible with CAT5e or higher
g Shielded type (including connectors)
g Straight-through
g Single wire
f When laying cables between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, check that cable characteristics are compatible with CAT5e
or higher using tools such as a cable tester or cable analyzer.
When using a relay connector midway, include it in the measurement.
f Do not use a hub between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector.
f When connecting to the projector using a twisted-pair-cable transmitter (receiver) of other manufacturer, do not place another twisted-pair-
cable transmitter between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter of other manufacturer and the projector. This may cause image and sound to be
disrupted.
f Do not pull cables forcefully. Also, do not bend or fold cables unnecessarily.
f To reduce the effects of noise as much as possible, stretch out the cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector
without any loops.
f Lay the cables between a twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector away from other cables, particularly power cables.
f When installing multiple cables, run them side by side along the shortest distance possible without bundling them together.
f After laying the cables, conrm that the value of [SIGNAL QUALITY] in the [NETWORK/USB] menu → [DIGITAL LINK STATUS] is displayed
in green (indicates normal quality). (x page 98)
Note
f 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.
f The projector does not support VIERA Link (HDMI).
